When people yell “let’s go” because they’re excited about something it generally confuses me.

I was scouring the bottom of the barrel of available C’s…the Yurtseven/Azubuike/Metu/Potter-level leftovers. Not a player there that looks any more appealing than Sims.

Leon really has his work cut out for him.

Singe doesn’t want to lose an asset and he’s patient, so he’s likely just to extend him even if that makes him untraceable for a year.

Yes, but the problem is that Ainge just has to wait a year to trade him…and I guess that meanwhile he’s creating unwanted wins

Marcassin is pretty delicious stuff. Doesn’t that mean that Markaten has em over a barrel? Or am I misunderstanding the leverage here. He can cause real problems for ainge if he doesn’t get what he wants.

From what I gather, the Lauri Markkanen situation is going to come to a head soon. So maybe if we are going to make a deal for a C, it will happen soon after that.

Tim McMahon on Lauri Markkanen: The Jazz I don’t believe are shopping him but if you give them an offer they can’t refuse they would take it. There’s been nothing close to an offer they can’t refuse. Now, then we’ve got this situation where like I said he is eligible to sign a contract extension that they can use that cap space on. He’s eligible to sign that August 6. If he signs it August 6, exactly six months from that date is the trade deadline. So he can be traded this year if he signs in August 6. If he signs it August 7th or any day after that he cannot be traded this year. (…) I will walk from Park City to Salt Lake City to cover a game next year if Lauri Markkanen signs the extension on August 6. If he signs that extension after August 6, he’s going to give himself what essentially is a one-year no-trade exception.

Tyus having to settle for the minimum is absolutely brutal. Rough market out there for guys who are clearly better than the typical “minimum player,” but not particularly close to being max-worthy.

Tyus Jones — the market’s top remaining free agent guard — has agreed on a one-year, $3.3 million deal with the Phoenix Suns, Kevin Bradbury of

tells ESPN.

It’s a shame we couldn’t find a way to land him. I guess he’ll have a starting job on the Suns.
