    If we have two max spots, I'd rather attempt to convince Brook to take a pay-cut, and try to sign 2 max deals. Impossible? Difficult? Yes.

    Blake Griffin going elsewhere looks good this year, but next year I wouldn't want to be competing with West for free agents with all that cap room they will have.

    Windhorst on ESPN said he believes if Griffin leaves they will try and trade Jordan.

    I dont want to talk down on him just yet but I wouldn't want him to be the anchor of our D, we'll see 1st hand soon enough. This is a PnR league, sure Brook blocks shots but he's another one of those poor PnR defending C's, whatever good he'll bring on O is going to be negated by his poorus defense, this team has always been pretty bad to begin with defending guard penetration, if we dont improve our perimeter defense, Brook is not the type of C we need going foward defensively.

    Cap space is nice and all, but they literally have nothing on that roster that's enticing with Paul and Griffin gone and likely Jordan as well.

    I outlined a plan if we shed Randle, Clarkson, and Deng where we could potentially get Brook for 12 million or so while also signing LeBron and George. That'd be a steal honestly.

    Ball/Ingram/George/LeBron/Lopez

    Nance Jr./Zubac/Ring Chaser/Hart/Kuzma/Nwaba etc.

    That team isn't necessarily a GS beater, but it's a damn fine sight. Plenty of youth and yet still competitive.

    A nice free agency tracker for when twitter gets a bit too crazy.
    Put into spoiler because it appears rather large on LB.

    That might be the best time to trade him though. ;)

    I like Randle, and I hope you're right. Randle is a good dude...

    at the deadline but doing now is selling low, just like Dlo trade. I rather keep Randle at 13-15 than reup Lopez at 13-15. All we need from our C is a mobile type that can cover PnR switches, Lopez for all his shine on O will probably make our D look as bad if not worse than Mozgov.

    Oh yes then I agree. I think he's in line for a big jump. Some team might be willing to pay the big bill on him this summer if he shows out the first half of the year. I think Randle commands something like 17-18 next summer.

    Everyone was trigger happy with the influx of money from the TV deal.
