if you don't believe me read this:

This would be great news if he got signed...

Probably not going to happen if we get Amir. BC will probably sign a sf instead.

We can say bye bye to Pops. Amir Johnson brings more skill, way more defense, more athleticism and more depth. The Raps just keep improving this off season.

We might bring him back and maybe that's why the Delfino deal is a 2 for 1.

It just says that Amir Johnson is the focal piece of the trade. There are probably some others involved.

that makes no sense we would have 16 players if it was a 2 for 1. i'm confused. someone explain to me what he means?
