    How much does Seth get you think? He was a backup pg who is 29 in August. Averaged under 10ppg

    I would be fine paying him 10. 12M possibly, but pushing it and lower years

    Tampering: It's ok when non-Lakers teams do it.

    We better not let Mo go for free

    I think we can get to 32M with letting go of Jones and Bonga if we also get a couple of 2nds right?

    He's given them indication awhile ago; when Marks got rid of draft picks to create salary with their first deal with Atlanta (I believe), that gave you an indication that he was committing there...

    Marks isn't making moves to create more cap space just because; he's a from the Spurs tree, a forward thinker, and knows what he's doing.

    And I'm hoping the Lakes have moved on from Kyrie because he isn't coming.

    I think we’re looking at Leonard or Butler. If those whiff, we bring in guys for depth.

    He was pretty important in the playoffs. I think he gets around 12.

    If we pay Jimmy the max and our depth sucks a** b/c of it, I will be very mad

    I hope no max guy comes here to save us from ourselves. Only would be fine with Kawhi

    Say we get Jimmy. Fill out rest of team, try it.

    Room for Collison (if he even takes that). Vet Min for JR if cut, Vet min for Wayne, Vet min for Rondo (if he takes that), Vet min for Rolo (if he takes)

    Collison, JR, Jimmy, Lebron, AD
    Rondo, Wayne, Kuzma, Maybe Mo?, Robin Lopez

    Meh...

    Agree. I am starting to warm up to Brogdon and Reddick, though.

    No JJ please, bad defender

    I like Brogdon, but he will get too much. Not great creator really, more of catch and shoot.

    Also he is RFA, so it locks up our cash, not worth it

    Honestly that team could beat anyone that matched up with the playoffs on the strength of LeBron, AD, and Butler.

    If we end up with 3 max guys then we have to cut the front office some slack. Only so much can be done and we’re already legit title contenders.

    I’m not as worried about filling in the roster as I probably should be. If we got a shot at one of those guys, I say take him and let things fall into place.

    I like Brogdon and think he’s a great fit. I’m wondering how much JJ is looking for.

    But try it as an exercise to see how hard it is to get decent depth with 1 room exception and vet mins

    We are a 3 man team rn, 4 man with max, 5 man after max and room

    Needs 3 more guys who can play

    We won’t have much depth this year but I’d be willing to roll the dice with Butler and of course Kawhi.
