To win 4,5,6 rings. It’s not hard to understand.

Woj tweeted that Collison was in line for a 10-12 mil annual contract. I wonder if that was an offer from us since Woj is close with Griff.


If it really was us, then our injury bad luck/curse has just evolved into something even more powerful

Golden State's Kevin Durant is planning to engage four teams -- the Brooklyn Nets, LA Clippers, New York Knicks and Warriors -- in discussions upon the opening of NBA free agency on Sunday, league sources told ESPN.

So would KD to the Clippers be seen as good or bad for Kawhi to the Clippers?

If KD goes to the Clippers or the Nets the Pels would be an obvious team to get involved to take on useful players like Gallinarri or Dinwiddie/Harris to clear cap space.

I wanted Collison too, and this just makes the PG market that much tighter. After the max guys, there isn't a whole lot out there. Ricky Rubio is happy this morning -- that I feel sure of.

neither the Knicks or nets are winning anything this year or any year unless they get Durant. It makes sense for them to work with GSW on Durant signing a new deal there and then trade for him later in the year or next offseason

Durant may be two years away for we or he knows.

the clippers won’t want to hold space but the 2 NY teams couldand should

if the clips don’t get Leonard or Durant I bet they work hard on getting Harris to agree to leave PHI and come back. Timing on a butler decision is tight but Harris can wait

Kyrie Irving is expected to agree on a huge 4 year, $140+ million dollar deal with the Brooklyn Nets shortly after free agency begins tomorrow, source tells me.

Supposedly the Lakers have decided that the only two guys worth their whole was are Kyrie and Kawhi.

If Kyrie goes to Brooklyn, I have a feeling that Kawhi goes elsewhere and they may end up signing Russell for about $25m.

There’s only one guy I don’t want in LAL and that’s Kawhi.

Russell is a good young player but they will regret that if they sign him to a big deal. Irving while certainly a moron is 5x the player that Russell is

Absolutely.

If they max DLo, he won’t be worth 27m to that team until LeBron leaves. Last year he really took off because the Nets gave him full reign to run everything, and he thrived in that role. His usg% was 31.9. I can’t imagine he would be near that with the LAL

I think I'd rather both to the Clippers

Clips would have to move Galo to make it work if someone would take him into cap space

They maybe willing to attach that 21 Heat pick to do it

Did I miss this earlier? I'm assuming this is just on the weird chance that they miss on Kyrie.

Yeah, they can renounce him if they need the cap space

Just insurance

Until the Pels have to face a SGA, Shamet, Kawhi, KD, Harrell lineup in the playoffs in a couple years.

Get these dudes out the West

Hoping they go to another Western conf team just because they COULD trade a few assets to the Pelicans is very flawed. Sure if it works out, fine, but it most likely won't and then you got another WC powerhouse we have to worry about.
Let them go to the East
