    Yeah, I think if Davis makes it clearer that he won’t be in New Orleans long term, even just a package with 2 out of the 3 between Lonzo, Ingram, and Kuzma would be one of the best packages NO could get. And if the point is that they want to stockpile assets for an extended rebuild after Davis would leave in 2020, adding Deng probably wouldn’t hurt as much since his contract is as long as AD’s anyway.

    But I’m mainly just using Davis as an example because I think there are a lot of parallels there with the Love/Wiggins scenario.

    My main point is that I think we would have the assets to bring in another superstar in his prime that increases our short term championship chances without completely sabotaging us in the long term. I think it’s something you would have to consider.

    Sounds like Pop has experience already with a family member of Kahwi causing issues. His manager who is his uncle. No details just a mention. Realdeal has brought up there could be unhappiness from Leonard's side with the perception after Pau and Aldridge's contracts that they now can't bring any more needed help to compete for an actual championship. Maybe that?

    Kawhi needs to realize that the only way they can attract vets in San Antonio is to overpay fringe stars and washout vets. This was Kupcrap's conclusion of LA when he can't even get a meeting with FAs and just threw money into walking corpses like Dung.

    The time of death was listed after the contract was signed though. Forensics, insect activity, etc. Not entirely on Mitch. Except length of the contract.

    Damn... Bayless is just relentless. If James can drag his crew into the Finals past the current best team in the East record wise and Toronto, he definitely deserves props. Nauseating as it may be with the press going ga-ga about it.

    Damn. If I were Sirron, I'd be upset. He's better at trolling Lebron than Skip Bayless, yet Bayless has somehow made a career of it.

    So billboards are part of the "process" of finding a new home...

    And here I thought, finding a new home means that actual homes are involved.

    Disagree, it was on top of Kyrie's list, Lowry wanted to go there.

    This year was not as good as a Spurs experience but i still like my cofee warm and my Bron defeated. Would not have missed it for anything.
