I don't see KG's health holding up playing the 5 in the western conference.

You sure you thought this through buddy?

West centers; Gasol, Howard, Duncan, Perkins, Jefferson, Pekovic, Bogut, Cousins, Scola, Asik, Kaman, Hickson, and Anthony Davis.

East centers; Bosh, Chandler, Noah, Hibbert, Brook Lopez, , Bynum, Horford, Drummond, Okafor, Vucevic, Sanders, DeAndre Jordan, Haywood and Valanciunas.

I don't know breh, doesnt look that much different to me .

The west looks a little more top heavy but east has better depth IMO

No we didn't. I've always said I was perfectly fine with Teague as our point guard for the foreseeable future. Chris Paul was never THAT big of a deal. I WOULD like to pair Dwight with Horford tho but if we don't get him, I have faith in Ferry and Coach Bud for building this team for the future. As for J Smoove, dude is an after-though in ATL right now. You trying to hard for LOL's right now, breh.

Stern doin it again blocking the deal over some cba rule

really? what rule is that

 

[god shamgod]

really? what rule is that

Something about coaches can't be traded in player transactions or side deals I have no idea what the rule is

Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine

NBA rules prohibit any trade/signing being made w/contingencies or side deals. Can Celts & Clips prove Doc & KG deals are "separate" moves?

what does this even mean?

NBA won't allow Rivers-Clippers swap - CBSSports.com


His strongest comments came on ESPN Radio in New York, where Stern said, "The teams are aware that the collective bargaining agreement doesn't authorize trades involving coaches' contracts."

The only incentives other than player contracts that are permitted in NBA trades, Stern said, are draft picks and cash.


"The teams know that," Stern said. "It has been confirmed to them. ... It can't be gotten around by breaking it up into two transactions."
Stern said -- and a person familiar with the communication between the league and the teams confirmed -- that there is no separating the two deals at this point because it is obvious all the pieces are part of the same negotiation.


"If you think those, at this point -- having been all over the media for the last week -- are separate transactions ... I have a bridge that I would very much enjoy selling to you," Stern said.



You not bout to sneak one past Stern when the shyt in the media yo

I cant stand Stern man. What could be done so that Doc Pierce and KG all play in LA? Could they just make the KG trade and a pick then let Doc get out his contract and he sign with the Clips?
