Mags, The HCP lands in LA around 5....... buy me a steak dinner and tell your fiance' to bring a me one of her hot whore-ish girlfriends.
 
hickson has zero incentive to give up his bird rights, and a small incentive to keep them

i thought we went over all this months ago?
 
Lookin' like Smith might want to get his tattoo of the old Hawks logo covered up.

I think it would have more to do with trying him out and seeing if he actually fits. If he doesn't, then it really doesn't matter.

I think we know what Telfair is. And not just from having him before. He has grown since then but there is plenty of data points (scouting) that has shown what he can and can't do for us.

I actually not opposed to going to get him if it only costs us a 2nd rounder. Just saying next year doesn't really factor in (even though it should) because he can move on. We have nothing over another team in keeping him (usually you try out a guy who does come with bird rights to see if you want to pay him more then another team in the off-season Because bird rights give you those advantages in years and dollars).
 
I thought I read MLE is capped at $5mil\max of 4 years for teams over the cap...luxury cap teams are $3mil\max 3 years

Maybe its for Telfair to try us out? Once we get a player to POrtland; they usually never want to leave! It must be the strippers and upscale Meth or something.

Yeah that's right. But a team that would really want Hickson would be ones that think he is the piece to put them over the edge. Usually those teams are at or close to the luxury tax threshold.

I would like to get Jordan Crawford before the Celts do! Not sure we have anything more enticing then Fab to give up though. In fact I am pretty sure we don't.

Bummer, he would be a nice cheap backup who can light it up. It is ironic how similar he is to Jamal Crawford and they aren't related.

Miami's nearing trade of Dexter PIttman to the Grizzlies for a second round pick, league source tells Y! Sports. Memphis CA 1st reported.
 
Show you how little WAS thought of Crawford.

Guu can score but he is like AI without the skill, never saw a shot he didnt like.

I don't know why the Blazers don't go after Gerald Henderson or Marshon Brooks. Once again the Blazers are just sitting on there hands.

Once again? Like, just like last deadline?

Bobcats/nets want a 1st pick not salary back for them. Something we dont have and our only real asset to get a pick bavk from is hickson who can veto any trade.
