Glenn Robinson III jr ?
Wouldn't that be Glenn Robinson IV ? :-)
Looks like Larry Sanders is out of money already.

He's actually a guy I would take a flier on. Loved his game. I wish he loved it though.

I think this might be old news. The Drew league has been going on for awhile already. Not sure if Saunders actually ended up playing.

Man, that's at least four guys the Kings offered more money to and were refused. Wes Matthews, Monta Ellis, Tobias and I believe Corey Brewer. There may be others. They are a mess.

Corey Booker, not Brewer, get it right man!
It will be interesting to see if he takes that deal.
"Pacers have called Mavericks about possible S/T with center Roy Hibbert involving Monta Ellis, Clippers and DeAndre Jordan, sources."
Pretty creative. I assume that each team still gets the players they signed, but Hibbert goes to L.A. and Indy gets an additional asset in Crawford and maybe another salary matching filler.

Why would the Mavs do that? The Clippers are screwed- by not doing a s&T they help weaken a division rival.

A huge pay cut for him- not worth it.

maybe there's future draft picks in the deal? Dunno, I just posted it as an example of a smart team trying to leverage their position to their advantage. Dallas doesn't have a 2016 1st round pick, they gave it to Boston

Perhaps he and you have different ideas about "worth." What does he "value" most…the money or the possibility of being on a special team.
I had read some rumors linking him to SA. Maybe he is willing to go to SA for less because Aldridge signed there…who knows what is on his mind.

I don't see them as a shoe in for a championship- I know the media pushed that whole 'isn't it wonderful a player is willing to take less for a chance to win' narrative, but how did that work out for most of those players? He can take the vet minimum in 2 years if he wants to get on a championship caliber team, but he's still got 2 productive years in him and can get paid a reasonable amount- I don't think the Spurs are head and shoulders over the rest of the playoff teams, so I think he's better off going to a playoff team that can offer him more money.
So who will snap first? Kobe with Hibbert or CP3 with McGee (if he signs with he clips)?
Getting tired of reading this media BS about how the big markets NY and LA are no longer attractive to FAs etc- complete BS, because nothing has changed. Most players stay with their teams, very few have ever gone to NY or LA. Those players that do move teams, do so based on personal preference- fit, money, chance to compete. D Jordan and Aldridge were both Texans- they went to Texan teams. As usual the media are making a big deal about nothing.
