@AlbertNahmad

With Rodney McGruder in agreement on a 3-year, $15M deal (per

@ChrisBHaynes

), Clippers could pull his qualifying offer and free up another $1.4M of cap room – up to full Kawhi Leonard max territory and beyond (including McGruder and Zubac cap holds), at $33.7M.

@KeithSmithNBA

To be very clear here, since everyone is asking: Clippers projected cap space includes cap holds for both Rodney McGruder and Ivica Zubac. LAC still has more than enough space to offer Kawhi Leonard a full max deal. Beverley, McGruder, etc will just delay signing if necessary




Nahmad is another good one to follow for cap breakdowns

Richard Jefferson ? Verified account @Rjeff24 11h11 hours ago More I’d like to formally announce after a ton of speculation I’m coming out of retirement. I’d like to play basketball one more year @wojespn



Richard Jefferson... should we? Could sign him for the vet minimum. He is a huge Griff fan. Would certainly be a good role model but I'm not sure how many minutes we could use him for since we are pretty deep at the 3 spot for once.

He’s my #1 FA pickup right now (Iggy isn’t a FA).

But I think he gets more than the minimum. A lot more. We would have to dump Moore.

So half this thread wants Kawhi to join the lockers and the other half wants clips or raptors


I haven't seen one Pels fan hoping for Kawhi to sign with the Lakers or the lockers.

Most of the ones I see wanting the Lakers are assholes or trolls.

Pels fans in general don’t want to see a superstar next to AD and LeBronz

Would we be relying on trade exceptions to get that done? Nobody really has cap space at this point.

Current trade exceptions that could fit Moore (from what I can tell):
Clippers - $9.8MM
OKC - $10.8MM
Dallas - $21.2MM

Unless Dallas used theirs?

Atlanta and Dallas both have cap room

Both LA teams too but that isn’t getting used.


As far as Dallas goes, they were supposed to use theirs as part of the Jimmy Butler trade but it fell apart

I've heard it speculated that the Mavs are waiting for Kawhi to sign so they can either absorb Gallo if the Clips get Kawhi and they want to make room to sign Danny Green too or to sign Green themselves if Kawhi doesn't go back to Toronto.

I dont say this a lot about the Mavs in FA, but that is a pretty savvy move if they pull it off. Good fit for Luka and Porzingas.

....Of course "if they pull it off" is the phrase we have used for years that simply precedes "but ultimately they didn't."

I thought it was hilarious on Get Up this morning that Woj had to admit that he didn't know whether Kawhi's meeting with the Raptors had even happened yet or not -- the Raptors have kept that tight of a lid on everything.

I'm pretty tired after this past month or so with all of the trade rumors/speculations/sauces

Definitely taking a break for a while after whatever kawhi decides

Wish they would just get it over with

Kawhi is so damn unpredictable I dunno if he is just epically trolling the dumpster fire out west or if he is legit signing with them.

Some Raptors guy on RealGM is stalking Masai at a hotel in Toronto. He posted some videos and pic to his twitter but then made it private, so that only the Raps fans who had already followed him could see it. But then someone put the videos on Streamable:

So, it would appear that the Toronto meeting is actually happening now.
