Lmao 5yrs/$178M for fucking Khris Middleton. This after handing Lopez $50M God bless the Bucks JJ Redick to..the Pelicans? Cashing out before he retires. Fuck a championship
Reddick 2 years 26.5 mil with the pelicans. My only worry us Kawhi drags this out and doesn't choose us. There may be nobody left to even sign by then. Hopefully we hear the news quick.
I wouldn't worry. If the word on the back-channels is that Kawhi is truly landing with LAL/LeBron/AD/Kuz, the market will come to LAL. That and they won't have anything more than the $4.7M room exception before turning to vet minimum candidates anyway
2yrs..$25M for Ariza..to the Kings Smh Ariza is cleaning up late in his career..certainly no need to ring chase
Just don't want to see guys like Seth Curry, Marcus Morris and Ed Davis sign elsewhere..could be solid room exception options after LAL inks Kawhi Vet minimum guys like George Hill and Korver aren't going anywhere..Korver waiting to be bought out
With KD gone and Klay done for most of the year Boogie should stay with them and get some decent money on a 1+1 deal where they bet on his recovery and he bets on being the main beneficiary of playing alongside Steph and establishing his new monetary value. Seth Curry could decide to sign an MLE deal with them to keep the 3's draining.
I'm saying if he doesnt come here. Guy is the biggest enigma out there. IF the Raptors have the last meeting with him and things didnt go perfectly down here, I could see him staying in Toronto. I'm just worried if he drags it out we could possibly have 32 million to spend on leftovers.
Even if Kawhi doesn't land with LAL, having landed AD to go with LeBron/Kuz should keep some solid guys hovering around the opportunity. I might begin to worry if I see Jimmy come off the board, or Beverley, maybe Horford..the quality, older big money crew that LAL has eyes for. And then maybe D'angelo, but I don't care that much for him. Beverley actually has a meeting set up with LAL, so they may be willing to hand him what others won't - which is probably a 3yr deal @ $40M+
Problem is a lot of available guys are getting signed right now. Hope it’s not another Rondo Lance Stephenson type of deal.
Dave McMenaminVerified account@mcten As we wait on news on what the Lakers brass has been doing since 3 p.m., a league source told ESPN that the team - ever wary of tampering - expressed on Saturday they had a meeting planned with a "unicorn." Kawhi Leonard, clearly, is LA's top target by a mile.
