For as many people who have dropped out of the Olympics, there are still eleven all stars on the team. Curious to see how they all work together. What's the starting five? Irving, Thompson, Anthony, KD, and Cousins?

The New York Bulls are going to sign Noah. Man, a Wolves Knicks Finals would be sweet.

I'm really hoping Wade ring chases with Lebron in Cleveland like a gutless lap dog.

Will the Bulls try to get a point guard?

Jimmy Butler and his enormous ego will be ball handling quite a bit. Fred Hoibarf asks two things of his PG: get the ball across half court with 21 seconds on the shot clock and be able to knock down a three every three games or so after the ball is passed to Jimmy and said pg is standing in the corner growing roots.

Yeah, I am trying not to get my hopes up for Durant to the C's, but I have lost that battle - my google news searches are just filled of Durant, Celtics, Horford, etc. queries. :mrgreen:

Indeed. They did the draft and stash, but they still have plenty of room to sign two max free agents without having to gut the team. Oh no, there I go again....:)

So Durant isn't going anywhere, but Horford might reunite with Billy D

That's a good move for all but the Hawks and the western conference.

If that happens and the Hawks get no compensation that's another in a storied history of stupid Atlanta GMing

If Durant opts to stay in OKC for just 1-year, coupled with next year's potentially huge crop of free agents, at this point, I'm hoping the C's show restraint and do not give those two max contracts to guys like Howard or Horford. Patience is key.

Makes me less made about the Bulls acquiring Robin Lopez on a three year deal. The big men are going to get way overpaid
