that is r******* nonsense, so let's not even have this conversation but let me ask you this what is your Plan B?
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.
That graphic is wildly off base. It tells me I could theoretically sign Kawhi + Butler + Cousins with our cap room.
More like you have $7 more to spend. Kawhi + two of the $1 players (which is still grossly undervalued). Beverly Kawhi Lebron AD Cousins
I'm actually warming up to the idea of D'Lo being our second option after Kawhi even if we manage to clear the full 32 million max slot. Reason being is D'Lo + another 5 million a year player is probably better than Kyrie or Kemba. Theoretically, you could maybe talk Cousins into coming here for 5 million. Room exception on Collison. Cousins/AD/Lebron/D'Lo/Collison with Kuz, Korver, McGee, and Melo off the bench. We could do a GIGANTIC Death Lineup of Cousins/AD/Kuz/Lebron/D'Lo.
Not me. I'd love Kyrie if we aren't able to land Kawhi. I have no faith in DLo at all. Kyrie is a killer. He's got the ring to prove it. Kyrie, Lebron and AD? Sign me up. But I'm still obviously all in for Kawhi first and foremost. Butler is my third choice.
