Dell's hands were tied
Like I said, I understand why he's gone to LA, I understand that he wanted more money than we were willing/able to give, I understand that, but I cannot help feeling betrayed for those reasons. I am aware that that feeling is an irrational feeling, because loyalty is not a quantifiable factor. I'm not blaming him: I do not want him to, nor do I expect him to feel at all bad about his choice. But just based entirely on my personal, subjective, irrational emotional response, I feel betrayed. That's just how it is.
Basketball.
Guess who tied them
Boogie likes Isiah Thomas too so maybe we could sign him and Boogie

It's not true that no other team would touch him. Lakers were willing to give him a similar deal last season. He took a paycut to come here to compete for a championship. He owes us nothing
Well, at least it's for a player that can play, and not someone like Deng

Tied because of tax? PAY THE TAX. Think of the message this sends. If Boogie goes too, AD is gone w/o supermax. Dell better go get Bledsoe or someone to keep Cuz because this looks like we are too money conscience
You're not allowed to feel things man don't ya know that by now lol

Even I know the answer to this question.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
this was my thought as well. Sure a lot of people might see him as a cancer and washed up and want thim nowhere near the team, but a lot of people would have said the same of Rondo last year.
If he comes cheap not a huge risk
It's not a matter of paying the tax, we dont have his bird rights so the ABSOLUTE most we couldve paid him was around 5.7ish...They are willing to go into the tax, if they weren't they wouldnt be trying to re-sign Cousins..
We couldve gave him 7-8 using the non-taxpayer MLE, but then we are hard capped and cant fit Cousins in..
Their hands were literally tied
You dont understand the CBA. We dont have Rondo's bird rights, it's not about affording it. Its about the legality of the contract offer.
I know right, forgot that I was supposed to be a computer that only processes things via profit calculations
Get ready to bend over for Lebron as the Lakers take Cousins and Rondo. We might as well trade AD before he leaves for the Lakers outright. We could take back Deng and Ball to complete the raping.
We signed Randall

So Boogie's gone.
Jl;ius Randle ! 2/18 Welcome to N.O.
I know/understand why, but that isn't how it seems. Dell should have found a way to make space. The average fan and maybe some of the players see he asked for 8, we offer less than half of that, and he gets 9. NOT PRETTY!
If we lose Boogie over this I’m going to be one sad panda.
DUDE is a Baller. Tough as nails! We are gonna be really YOUNG & we are gonna really run!
Holy ******** seriously? Thanks rondothat's a hell of a back up big to have crazy.

Yeah, we just call up other teams and say "Hey take Hill and Ajinca off our hands, we not taking anything back, thanks"
Doesnt work that way
Did the Pels just sign Julius Randle??? Having trouble embedding the Woj tweet
