Cavs looking OK early, making the playoff push.
Off night for me.

It is not inconceivable that they get the 4 seed and homecourt in the 1st playoff series. Hornacek should be coach of the decade.

Plus they are only on the hook for 36 million next year minus draft picks which will be relatively small since they wont be lottery picks. Right now they will drafting 17, 23 and 30 since they have Indiana and Washingtons picks along with their own. They also have Minnesota's but it is top 13 protected and MN is currently number 12 and it doesnt appear likely that they can win enough to lose the pick.

You'd have to think they will come away with at least one viable player from those picks and maybe 2.

If Philly gets the #2 and #11 picks they could start a line up next year of

1-M Carter Williams
3-J Parker/A Wiggins
4-T Young
5-N Noel
2-R Hood/G Harris

And still have a ton of cap space to sign some veteran depth
and that is with 4 2nd rd picks too though they will most likely deal a few of those of draft and stash some euros.

They only have 26 million committed and even with approx 8 million in lottery salaries they will have significant space.

Thats pretty good for a team that is currently getting thrashed nightly

What are the chances of the Sixers buying out Granger and he ends up playing for the Heat?

Sounds like he is trolling for that. Hinkie more or less said that they would consider it however they can keep him they can use his expiring contract as a chip in a sign and trade this summer. Generally guys who are going to be bought out are done right away and the Sixers owe him no favors so I'd guess no but who knows? They may not want him moping around or worse come in, play well and win a game or two lol.

3 weeks ago on sportsinteraction.com Indiana was even money to win the East, Miami was plus 150. Not a giant favorite, but a favorite. I wish I could bet Miami at plus anything to win the East. They have made it clear that they want home court and they are coming for it. Indiana talked all this **** about getting it, and they are letting it slip away.

Harden's playing like he's half shot in the a$$ tonight. Ugly.

Word today is Granger is begging for buyout because Spurs want to sign him.

The Sixers would have to be nice to do it, because he does have some value as a sign and trade for next year. Not sure they are in any position to give up anything!
