    Re: 2019 Offseason Thread

    I still don't think Lakers should force a max deal. Unless they could get Kawhi, I just don't like the ideal of having 3 ball dominant players, Kuz, older vets, and 2nd round picks. The big 3 would have to play heavy minutes while having injury histories. I still think Kyrie goes to Nets. Kemba fits with his shooting creating abilty, but they would definitely need to get some wing defenders. Jimmy isn't the same level of defender he use to be and isn't that consistent enough of 3pt shooter. I think Jimmy joins Kyrie in BKN. I think Klay would have been best fit with his playstyle.
    I still think filling out roster is way to go. They essentially have no guards, no perimeter defenders, needs more 3pt shooting, and front court depth. I wouldn't want to rely on quality vets taking vet min. and 2nd round picks making immediate impact. Nor would I want 34-35 yr old LeBron and AD(who only played 70+ games twice) heavy minutes risking injury. So I fill out roster and build complete team. I would see if Kuz can give you 18-20+ ppg and be that 3rd guy. If Ad. Bron, Kuz can get you 70-80 combine points a night, that should enough if the remaining 6-8 guys in lineup can get them 30-40 points

      I do appreciate everything Al has done since he's been in Boston. He was a key player on two teams that made it to the ECF (unlike Kyrie who was a key player on a team that beat the Indiana Pacers without their best player). Al is a warrior and I'd love to have him back. I was down for a 3yr/$60ish million but for 4yr/$100M... don't let the door hit ya, where the good lord split ya, Al. "Bye, Al" *in my Peggy Bundy voice

        Woj and his idiots get exposed, they don't know what the hell they are talking about. These segments are literally 2 days apart:

          I'm not seeing the problem. The Lakers made their "others" available between the first and second video. He's reporting on a fluid situation... things change.

            According to ESPN they did. They use words like "scrambling" and "desperate" describing the Lakers because they're still trying to paint the picture that the Lakers FO screwed up the timeline on the AD deal when they likely have known what they're doing all a long.

              1. Waive George Hill
              2. Renounce cap holds to Mirotic and Brook
              3. Trade Ersan to someone for free
              4. Attach #30 and or DiVincenzo/DJ Wilson to trade Snell

              Depending on what's attached in #3, that opens up around $25-30 million in cap space for the Bucks.

              5. Sign Horford (or any other combination of free agents with that space)
              6. Sign Middleton for like 5/$150 million
              7. Sign Brogdon for like 4/$70-80 million

              Again, I don't expect our owners to actually be willing to pay that kind of tax bill, but it's theoretically possible for us to make a big splash this offseason while keeping almost all of our players.
              Haven’t been following much of the Bucks, but is Middleton really a $30M/yr guy?

                  He isn't but someone is going to pay him that so the bucks either let him go or pay him a little more then he is worth.

                    Not ideally but I think $30M may be a hometown discount compared to what other teams offer him.

                      I rather go after a 3& D Wing or a combo guard than Horford. If they could get a Middleton or poach Brogdon that'll be better option. Sixers definitely need perimeter defender, bench scoring, frontcourt depth

                            Ummm, that may look cool but it would be for Kawhi having those 2 in his sight to exterminate them, not join them.
