There are no other superstars for Kawhi to team up with if he went to the Clippers. They’re all off the board. If he wants superstar teammates, it’s going to have to be the Lakers...

No, we're going to trade for Ibaka or, if we miss out there, for Favors. We could also still trade for Gallinari (who's a 4 and not a 5, but still).

Getting Redick means that it's less essential that we get 3pt shooting from our center position.

My gut tells me Kawhi won't piggyback on Lebron, and the way things have played out probably help Toronto's case for a 1 and 1, but I'm still nervous because you just don't know with Kawhi.

Yep. I'm legitimately scared that Kawhi is going to the Lakers. Hopefully he stays in Toronto




meanwhile, I want to go get Favors. And then either sign Beverly or go get Dinwiddie

I like Frank the tank. Maybe trade for Love or Favors if we want to compete for a playoff spot. Go after Frank or Maxi if they’re rebuilding and hope they can keep the seat warm for Hayes.

If we were going that route, wouldn't we have rathered beat Philly's offer for Horford?

I'd rather pay horford 30/year versus Love.

Do you prefer him over Ibaka? I didn't before we got Redick, but now I'm not sure.

Dragic to the Mavs as part of the Butler trade.

I think we can safely sign their young big to an offer sheet now.

We’ll take Love if that Cleveland first we have loses its protections

I think the most rational position is Kawhi legitimately doesn't know.

If he was going to the Lakers you wouldn't expect him to be meeting them in the middle of the Clippers and Raptors days after FA starts.

I would slot them as the longshot right now but I certainly wouldn't rule it out. But from Kawhi's perspective, how much will that team be leaning on him? It will be without depth, with Lebron taking 15 games a season off, AD likely missing 6-10 at a minimum, with no real depth, question marks with their training and medical staff, and then there is the narrative.

I'd never put money down, but I wouldn't be shocked at a 1 and 1.

Apparently Dragic to Dallas is included in the Butler to Miami deal. Cuban getting another Euro is pretty much jackpot to him.
