I am curious if these centers fit into our TPE:
Serge Ibaka- I have no idea of his health, but the Clippers have gotten off to a slower start. Ibaka is not in their long term plans and if they continue to struggle, maybe they move him and cut down on their tax bill.
Derrick Favors- He is probably getting moved this year and his asking price will not be high. He has a player option next year.
Thomas Bryant- Maybe my favorite name on the list. Still recovering from a knee injury last year. Washington is filled with a deep roster even without Rue. They have two centers getting minutes currently: Harrell (who is playing really well) and young Daniel Gafford. Bryant is in the last year of his contract paying 8.6 million per year. I think the Wizzards move one center when Bryant is healthy.

DAL being marginally capable of hitting a barn door with a shotgun so far hasn't helped.
It was spot on prediction by you.
I just see Luka has a better three ball than Dame and Beal. That is the big take away
Now that KAT is throwing some hints about wanting out of Minny, pls make KP for KAT happen. Pipe dreams can come true sometimes.

Maybe if they had dumped Porzingis for Bamba + Ross, traded THJ to a contender for a late 1st round pick and signed Markkanen in the summer, they´d actually have an asset base to get into such star trade discussions with a package around Brunson + Markkanen + Bamba + two picks, but Cuban simply does not understand how the NBA works. I could have read the new CBA in Kalaallisut and have a better understanding of it than Cuban.

Tbh. KP if he can stay healthy for 5 games is an easier sell to the Minny fan base for their mgmt than Bamba or Markannen and picks.

He's only averaging 4.7 FTA a game. Thats the lowest amount since his sophomore season in 2010-11. He keeps crying that the refs are treating him unfairly but I say this is what he gets for abusing the system for years on end.

I don't think that "like" was the only "incident".

No, but that´s better than flat out saying that you had a fall out with the college intern that handled your "personal" Twitter account and went rogue.
Korkmaz is averaging 12 PPG and 3 APG on 49/43/93 shooting for $5M. The Mavs need to hire somebody that can accurately project the forward progression of younger players instead of signing older guys that are already maxed out.
