    This all day. It also makes us far more appealing with Lebron moves on and we already have 2 Max Level players on the Lakers to go after someone else. AD by himself is cool, but having AD and say Kyrie or even better Kawhi... that's amazing

    I like Horford. Really smart, savvy big man. But I'd only offer him 2 years or 3 with that being a team option. He doesn't have much left and I don't want to be stuck when he's done. He's not taking that. He wants a 4 year deal and to finish his career out with one team.

    I love the Boston s*** show that currently happening. They're going to have nothing. Tatum, Brown, and GH. Everyone is jumping off that ship. All that magician work by Ainge for nothing. It really doesn't get much better than that.

    Some of the folks on the list I would try for if we don't go the max player route.

    Guards:
    Reggie Bullock (resign or keep his cap hold of about $4.75 million which would be cheaper)
    Patrick Beverley
    Darren Collison
    Danny Green
    Wayne Ellington
    TJ McConnell
    Wesley Matthews
    Alec Burks
    Terrence Ross

    Forwards:
    Taj Gibson
    Bojan Bogdanovic
    Jarred Dudley
    JaMychal Green
    Anthony Tolliver
    Ed Davis
    James Ennis
    Al-Faroug Aminu

    I absolutely love every second of this...not only are they going to lose Kyrie...they're going to lose their one glue guy that made it all happen in Horford.

    I hope ROZIER gets a huge offer from another team too...they'll be left with Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum - the 3 guys that they woulda given up for AD. They'll overpay for Marcus Morris annd then they'll be an 8 seed next year...if that.

    Portis is expected to draw interest from the Lakers, Clippers, Jazz, Bucks, Magic and Knicks among others, NBC Sports Washington has learned.

    Hortford at the room exception after we nab Kawhi would be a #CREAM dream. I'm hoping he is this summer's Boogie-type signing. He really made that Cbag team's defense next level.

    That being said...I loooove the boston massacre right now. Looking at their cap sheet with Al and Ky gone leaves them without a max slot.

    However, if they renounce Rozier and their other RFAs as well as trade all their 1st round picks and the capholds they each carry, then they can get about 34m in space.

    Essentially, the cbags ain't having the summer they thought they would have. Call it the IT curse..."everything sinks down here".

    I'm sure AD will waive his trade kicker if for sure we're getting a 3rd Star and we trade everyone except LeBron, AD, Kuz and Caruso lol. It's funny LeBron has been recruiting since the all Star weekend and have given many hints about us being relevant next year with a vengeance. I'm pretty sure he knows someone is coming and he told Rob already, AD & Rich know too. My gut tells me it's Kawhi.

    Beverly/Caruso
    Kawhi/KCP
    LeBron/Ariza
    Kuz/J Williams
    AD/McGee

    this is my prediction for next year.

    This is crazy if true...I just don't believe this at all. Sorry. This is a little too cloak and dagger.

    I know its been said a few times but this is an easy, quick tweet thread to read if anyone is still confused on how we can still get a Max slot no matter the date the trade is finalized:



    Also, everyone should follow these folks if you haven't already

    I do wonder if we insisted on holding onto Kuzma as a contingency plan to use as the carrot to unload Bonga and Wagner to get to that max slot if the Pelicans decided not to play ball.

    Beverly isn't taking the Room Exception to play with us. He hates us. He would probably invoke a Laker tax to play with us. And if Kawhi is on our team, the Clippers didn't get him and Beverly will undoubtedly be part of their future plans. I think the rest is somewhat attainable, but I think you'll need to replace Williams with Carmelo if we're trying to be accurate.
