I guess. Like I said, I don't really care about the NBA. A skinny kid like Noel coming off a knee injury doesn't seem like he will stay healthy. What do I know.

Who cares! The real draft is Sunday.

If Darnell Nurse is the pick, I can't wait to hear the insightful words of Donovan McNabb on how to handle the philly media and fan base.

A senior member of the 76ers told me that players complained that they did not know whether to pronounce it Jrue, like "Drew," or JRue like "jah"-ROO. This frustrated teammates and alienated Jrue in the lockerroom. ~Randy Miller

Upon hearing he was traded, Jrue Holliday called Philadelphians idiots for ruining steak sandwiches with cheese whiz. ~Randy Miller

LATEST ON LETANG
Letang was offered an eight-year contract at around $54 million (total), sources told the Tribune-Review. The Penguins' proposal contained little wiggle room, and the club would like to get a response — even in the form of a counter offer — by the weekend, the sources said.
Free agency begins July 5, and the Penguins do not want to arrive at that date without resolution on Letang's future, the sources said.
The Penguins are agreeable to paying Letang slightly over $7 million annually, sources said.


wow

If he was a UFA now, he'd get $7.5mm easy, be amazed if he settles for $6.75mm

If he is traded i'll likely be a Jordan Staal type move, where they get him to sign an extension as a condition of the deal.

Well he might take it for the 8 years of the deal but he'll probably reject if a NMC isn't part of the deal which I'd think Shero would refuse to give in a deal of this length so he could move him down the road if he wanted. If Letang took a 4 year deal then I could see the NMC being part of it.

Yeah, maybe if there's a NTC or NMC, but like you said, if he's offering 8 years, there's likely no full on NMC
