Yeah, it's basically Jalen Suggs's contract. Lakers take advantage of having cap space now, but the decreasing salary benefits them moving forward.
Yeah it would be hard for him to get to Clevland this season. They are hard capped. It makes sense for him to finish his career there, but at this...
I don't think that would fit under the cap. Also, Davion can't be trade until January 15th. I think the deal (if done before January 15th) would...
Ok, that's a descending deal. Similar to a potential Reaves deal. Ellis and Grimes might also get a similar deal or close to it.
If Lebron leaves, we could end up with up to 55 million in cap room. It would be interesting to see what route we go with that. Ellis and Grimes...
My bad. They don't have to pay him 41.5 million. They only have to if a team offers him that and we want to match the deal, financially. In this...
Lakers might be in a situation where they have to pay him a deal starting at 41.5 million, if a cap space team offers him that. and Reaves is...
Great point about the spacing. We often get concerned about providing floor spacing for our three offense creation type players (Luka, Lebron, and...
Good to hear. Redick wants to run more. Getting steals greatly enhances fast breaks. LaRavia has a very good steal % and steal per 36, so that...
Don't sleep on Koloko. He is the best rim-protector and defensive center on the team. His rookie year, averaged 1 block per game in only 13.9...
More reason to keep Rivs now, I guess. One of the best foul baters in the league LOL. He might get 8 free throws a game next season.
Gabe's 3 and D numbers actually check out really well. Why do we not like him again? I know he has had availability issues, but when healthy is he...
Rui's feet are in cement on defense, and on offense he tries to go into isolation, which mucks up the offense. So, we definitely need to start by...
Diabate is a nice prospect that fits the lob catcher role for us at center, but we already have three guys that do that in Ayton, Hayes, and...
I'm looking at it from the standpoint that we have two PF defenders in the starting lineup already, that are not good defenders, and Reaves, who...
We have a good back fill of players for this imo. LaRavia and Thierro. PJ Washington was good in this role for Dallas in 23-24, when they went to...
I'm starting to feel like we might as well do the Miami trade for Wiggins. If they want Rui + Knecht + 2031 unprotected first, have them ad two...
I hear you. In any case, what do you think of looping I'm Utah to a multi team deal where the third team gets Kessler? It seems like Indiana would...
Kessler is the 5 and Sabonis is the 4 in this scenario.
They have Sabonis at one of the 4/5, so the other one needs to be able to protect the rim, and maybe shoot a little bit. Taking Monk for Rui would...
