what the always entertaining CT doesn't say is that with Davis, Allen 
and Pierce on the same team + an extensio for Jefferson we'll be some 
$10M in over the luxury tax.... and that's before extending Gomes or 
Allen....

don't see that happening.

i think CT took taht story that ran about GS doing a similar type 
deal with MIN + CHA and swapped out the C's.  interesting to chew on 
but i just can't see anything like this happening.
