    The Giant is up early for work!

    Stephenson is a cancer, but for Charlotte that's not a bad move. Terms?

        Morning, Jake.

        Looks like about two years at about 9 million per, with a team option for a third season.

        I think Indiana was offering him 5 years at 44 million.

        I'm not sure I see the upside for him, unless he thinks he's going to be a stud in a few years.

          3 year 27 million

          pacers offered 5 years 44 mil

          makes sense but a big gamble

          lance wants to get out of indiana situation and be the man

          cap is gonna increase a bunch with the tv deal so I understand the shorter deal but he's gambling

          gambling on being really rich vs being really really rich

            They got someone else, but I can't remember who? I know they tried Hayward, but he went back to Utah.

              I think a lot of these guys want to see what the new CBA and tv money looks like before getting locked into long term deals. 44 mil guaranteed sounds pretty good to me, but what do I know?

                What a joke that Indiana team is. It's a good thing he got out of there. Total dump. Bird to blame.

                      This team looks like a threat in The East now

                      His value is his toughness kind of like a young Artest but a little better on offense

                                        Have you seen there team and what they accomplished last year? The east is wide open. The core pieces are still there but Stephenson is an upgrade. If they can get a point guard then that would make them major contenders.

                                            i dont understand the move
                                            the average pay is almost the same
                                            could have stayed in indiana, where he has had success, for a 3 year deal

                                                Just sounds crazy to me that they would be a contender. I hope they are though.

                                                that whole Bobcats thing never worked out, maybe all they needed was new uniforms and Lance Stephenson

                                                    The east could be crazy weak if rose does not play well. Bobcats would not be a playoff team in the west but in the east they are contenders.

                                                      Top 10

                                                      After the top 6 it is very close though between 7-25 range guys
                                                      Really? Above guys like Curry, Anthony, Love, Westbrook, and Parker.

                                                          Westbrook is probably a better talent but a gunner and lazy the other guys are horrible all around players

                                                              Stephenson isnt all that bro, not sure how youre rating him so high . I honestly think he'd make a better PG than a shooting guard.
