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.

FWIW

Cavs working three team deal w/ Warriors/TWolves. Warriors get multiple 1st rnd picks. Wolves get Klay and Tristan Thompson. Love to Cavs

There's no way that's happening. The Warriors don't want to trade Klay Thompson for Love, but will for draft picks? Yeah, no.

Kevin Loves wallpaper is already being removed from Target center.

I can't blame Kobe for those jackasses handing him that kind of contract. He's earned all that money.

The only star they had a realistic shot at was Melo but I'm glad he went elsewhere. I think the main thing playing against Kobe at this point, besides the cap number (which in the end really doesn't matter, because Mitch and bum Buss couldn't get anyone worth shit to sign) is Kobe's health moving forward.

Absurd rumor.

So the Cavs are basically going to get Love for 2 firsts and a Tristan Thompson? Yeah, ok.

It's possible Love is saying Cleveland or bust. If so, then Minnesota lost a lot of leverage and Golden State knows they're out of the game.

Maybe they were posturing about not wanting to get rid of Klay Thompson. If they're intent on getting rid of him, maybe the Cavs throw in Waiters and a shitload of first rounders which could turn into a nice haul.

Thats the stupidest thing I've seen since free agency started. So the Warriors don't want to give up Klay for Love, but they'll do it for draft picks? If they were going to trade Klay, they'd just go ahead and get Love themselves.

The other sticking point is the Warriors DO NOT WANT the Martin contract and Minnesota was only interested in a trade with Golden State that would rid them of that contract.

Do we actually know the Warriors won't trade Klay for Love? The Cavs also said they won't trade Wiggins. Doesn't mean I believe it. It seems like the thing holding up a Golden State Love deal was Love, not the Warriors. If Love is hell bent on going to Cleveland, then no Golden State trade comp to Minnesota would make much of a difference.

No what held up the deal was Warriors not wanting to give up Klay.

The Kelvin Martin contract was a bigger issue than what is being let on.

That and maybe Golden State overplayed their hand. In either case, there seemed to be a point where Love seemed only interested in Cleveland. At that point, both the Warriors and Timberwolves lost a ton of leverage. They both may have overplayed their hand a bit.

T-Wolves' stance in recent trade talks is said to remain same: If Klay Thompson part of deal, Kevin Love will go to Warriors, not Cavs.

Good hope the Warriors get him.
