NBA Analyst Tim Legler Talks NBA Offseason Moves

NBA analyst Tim Legler joined Grant today to talk about the NBA offseason.  Tim discussed the Houston Rockets frantic efforts to acquire Dwight Howard,  and how there are risks involved in giving up so much for a player that doesn't want to sign long term.  Grant and Tim also talked about how Dwight Howard's image has taken a hit throughout this saga dating back to last year's trade deadline.  One of the players people have talked about moving in a Dwight Howard deal is Andrew Bynum, who Tim said could prove to be a danger if made the centerpiece of a franchise.  Tim also talked about Steve Nash coexisting with Kobe Bryant, Blake Griffin's health, Brook Lopez's contract, and the benefits of the Summer League for relatively unknown players.  Finally, Grant and Tim talked about the importance of the team aspect off the court, as well as what the ceiling is for DeMarcus Cousins.
