I will update this when the schedule is announced in a couple of weeks, but I will open with the new uniforms for the Charlotte Hornets below.

As would I, but that doesn't mean I'm crazy enough to think the Bulls are the favorite in the East over LeBron James.

Flags fly forever. If you think you have a chance to win a ring with Love the next two seasons, you pull the trigger. In year 3 the cap goes up and Love/Irving extensions look pretty good if they're locked in another 2-3 at those rates. You sign Okafor to a 1-2 year deal if he's healthy. Bring on a Francisco Garcia to help on the perimeter. Take a flyer on Ekpe Udoh as another potential rim protector (have to roll the dice on back end of bench).

A few pages ago you admitted to going by tweets to judge how Wiggins and Bennett were doing in summer league.

You should really stop posting and save yourself the embarrassment.

BTW, if not to get ready to trade for Love, why did the Cavs make the trade they made today?

[okcchief]

I'm not as big on Love as some, but he's more proven than Wiggins. I personally think Cleveland may be the favorite in the East either way because I'm not sold on Rose being healthy. I can say I'm pretty damn sure that Cleveland will end up trading Wiggins for Love if they can because it's what LeBron wants. Who can blame them?

We shouldn't trade Michael Beasley to get Chris Bosh /Heat fans like zilla and rustshack in 2010 (said by no one)

[Hootie]

I thought the Cavs were INSANE to take Irving over Beasley

Beasley was in Derrick Rose's class.

Really? You're going to compare Beasley to Wiggins? The Heat knew what they had in Beasley when they traded him and that includes a whole host of character issues. Not only are the Cavs trading a player with a whole shitload more trade value than Beasley, they're trading another #1 pick and a first rounder on top of that.

And again, this was never about Wiggins / Bennett for Love straight up. This is Wiggins + Bennett + cap savings to bring in another very good player.

**** off. You have the fan mindset of a 10 year old because you decided you liked sports in college.

[Hootie]

not holding my breath for Rose to be healthy, no doubt

[RealSNR]

I was wondering when people were going to make jokes like this. Good ol' Onion.
