I guess on Boogie. Was always low on him and high on Buddy, though. As to Boston, yeah, there is definitely a calculus involved. Past a certain price, they will move on to Plan B. Which is why I don't think they will be leveraged here. IMO Griffin just doing his due diligence, but the fact that he is trying to use the Lakers to get better deals isn't a good sign for a bidding war. Guess we will see.

I hope Ainge's plan B is not Conley and Capella, the two that have been tied to Boston. That would be terrible if they lowballed on AD to settle for that.

I don't think he is lowballing. People are just overrating the Lakers' assets and getting unreasonable expectations amidst all the hullabaloo.

If it's not done by end of draft night, it likely means there's no bidding war. So we're hoping for sometime in next 10 days.

Griff isnt in a huge rush but per crewz(I think) he said that he'll get final offers Friday/Saturday then take the weekend to mull it.

I would think if he offers Tatum, Smart, Williams, #14 and the Memphis pick, he has an excellent chance of getting a deal done. If he agrees to include Brown, I think it is a done deal.
