 [SIZE=1em]"Is this malaise of theirs about not feeling motivated, not thinking they have something to play for," said Strauss. "Is it just being tired? There's one guy in particular on the team that keeps saying the same thing to me, and I can't say who he is, but he keeps saying 'We've got problems and it ain't basketball.'"[/SIZE]

 
"The Luke Walton question is an interesting one. I think what happened with Luke Walton in some ways speaks to some of the issues this team has where his success undermined Kerr's authority," said Strauss. "They played the best basketball they ever had when Kerr was not coaching the team, when Luke was letting them do a lot of what they really wanted and Draymond (Green) was essentially player-coach and that has ratcheted up the tension, I believe, between those two figures. And so it's so hard to say. Is it because they miss Luke Walton? Or Luke Walton's presence on the team and the success that came with it came to haunt them in some way."

I was just about to post about the clippers
Their window shut in the houston series

They are absolutely boring and stale
Doc hasn't done a single thing better than VDN. The absolute definition of stagnant

They make me sick. I avoid them so bad. Didnt watch a single second of their game tonight

Fire GarPax, fire Hoibitch, take the best possible deal for Butler, and just trust the lotto balls for the next 3+ years.

I don't think either of them is leaving money on the table. You're gonna have 38 million tied up between them for next season

There might be a few teams that would be willing to throw money at Wade, but you're right.
 
Rondo's contract has a mutual option for next year, though.  Basically a partially guaranteed buyout.  Bulls will only be on the hook for about 3 mil if they cut him this summer.

Would Rondo do that though?
