Being tall just really paid off for Timofey Mozgov. The same guy who barely played in the NBA Finals and was a non factor the entire playoffs for the Cavs just got a crazy offer from the Lakers, who themselves are desperate to have anyone come to Los Angeles. Just for a little bit of context, Mozgov will make about $16 million dollars next season while Steph Curry makes $12 million. Sounds legit, right?
NBA: Cleveland Cavaliers Reportedly Sign Timofey Mozgov

(Photos) NBA: Damn Did We Miss Something? TNT Thinks Nuggets Timofey Mozgov Scored 93 Points
LOL, if this stat line were true, Timofey Mozgov would literally be the best player of all time, even better than Jordan. After the Nuggets beat the Warriors last night 100-99, TNT interviewed Mozgov because he played a huge role with 29 rebounds in the game. But the stat people apparently thought he also scored 93 points, even though he only took 15 shots. So unless the NBA magically changed the rules to have shots that are worth more than 3 points it is pretty impossible to score 93 points only taking 15 shots. Not sure how they missed it but it temporarily made Mozgov a legend. It was pretty funny though. Hit the jump.
