Shams says Horford isn't returning to Boston. Didn't see that coming.

I'm happy to see others have jumped onto my anti-Russ bandwagon.

That contract is gonna weigh OKC down for years.

Supposedly he has a 4 year $100 mil deal out there. If I was him I wouldn't turn that down and if I was Boston I wouldn't match it. Celtics are screwed for the foreseeable future no sense wasting money.

I'm curious to see who is going to give him that contract.

Me too. That seems like a lot for a 33 year old Al Horford? 4 years WOW! It might work pretty well in the near term in Houston but I don't think they want to spend that much, he's probably a good fit for San Antonio or he could go up to Milwaukee and reunite with coach Bud.

It's not that attractive to Boston, maybe the Knicks or Brooklyn too. He's a pretty good role player but 25 million dollars until he's 37, yeah I'd rather pay him on one or two year deals at this point.

He will probably be the Knicks premiere free agent.

Hoping for some juicy trades tonight. Warriors buying a second round pick was a smart move. They need bodies.

That's what I'm hearing from the experts, but a couple of my more hardcore Blazer fan friends are complaining that he was trash at UNC this year. Whatever, we need wings so give him a shot.

Nobody’s gonna want a physically broken, mentally crushed KD.

Wiz gonna pick him up on the cheap.
