I'm sad to see Boris leave. He was fun to have around.

Jazz Acquisitions under Dennis Lindsey. . .

• Trevor Booker - teach the young guys how to stand up for themselves and love the organization.

• Jonas Jerebko - teach the young guys how to toughen up and play with an edge.

• Ekpe Udoh - teach the young guys how to never give up.

• Joe Ingles - teach the young guys how to be indispensable and work HARD.

• George Hill - teach the young guys how to be leaders and compete.

• Boris Diaw - teach the young guys how to have fun.

• Thabo Sefalosha - teach the young guys how to play defense.

• Ricky Rubio - teach the young guys how to share the load.

• Joe Johnson - teach the young guys how to WIN.

When we look back at how Gobert and Rubio and Favors and Hood and Exum and Mitchell all developed into the players they will become. . . this is why.

From Twitter reports seems like the start of the framework of the Melo deal is something like this

Houston gets Melo
New York gets Mo Harkless
Portland gets Ryan Anderson
4th team takes on Meyers Leonard

You would think the Knicks would get back more.

Oh they would like I said the start of the framework. Just what has been rumored/reported, not all pieces have been discussed.

Hmm, I wonder if they made a trade or just didn't want him.

My guess is he wants BIG money and Spurs dont play that game.

I think they just don't want him. They could have kept him RFA and just matched or not matched.

Leonard's contract is soooo bad doe. Good luck. If Melo gets to Houston... someone gets hosed.

That's the things about Spurs dudes, the Spurs know they can find another Simmons easy. Other people will overate and pay for him but Spurs will just laugh.

Few Spurs FAs have succeeded outside of that team.

Simmons time with the Spurs is likely the most focused he has been and ever will be as a bball player. Things to consider.

That 4th team says "**** You!"

They were thinking about stretching his salary and waiving him, Getting rid of him for something like Mo Harkless, who is an asset would be a decent deal for them. If there is any assets, they are going to whoever has to swallow the Meyers Leonard turd sandwich.

Houston just has nothing to give that should turn into Carmello Anthony.
