    But it’s why we can afford to do it.

    Worst case, we still have 2 elite stars and a ton of money.

    Switch out Rondo for Avery Bradley and you got a deal.

    I don't know why people think Boogie fresh off an achilles and Boogie rushing back from a torn quad in the playoffs will resemble the Boogie we would get next season.

    no idea why anyone would be against boogie for cheap

    there's absolutely nothing to lose. not to mention he could very well return to form

    ^^ I 100% take a one year gamble on Boogie.. He knows AD & they supposedly got along very well.

    Kawhi or no Kawhi, Boogie on the vet's minimum is a no-brainer. Bring him in. Can't give him any of the exemption, though. Need guards (like Quinn Cook, maybe?).

    Is Trey Burke still out there? He's probably my favorite of the pgs out there....granted he's still out there. Things change too fast to keep up.

    If you have a chance to get a superstar like Kawhi in his prime, you do it. We just need to stay the course and hope for the best. Sure there were a few guys I would have liked to get but we saved ourselves for some outrageous contracts, that will certainly have buyers remorse written all over them.

    I'm really hoping for DMC and Javale one way or the other. Cousins, AD, and Rondo were good together in nawlins before the injury.

    if kawhi and uncle dennis are truly big on leaks like all the reports say then i don't understand how he returns to toronto after what happened earlier today

    boy would it be funny if drake leaking the meeting location is what drives kawhi to the lakers

    If Kawhi was a 100% on his decision to stay with the Raptors, I think it would've been done by now after the meeting they had today. No reason to wait at that point, he's already in Toronto. Hopefully, we get some news of him flying back to LA.

    I'm glad they are riding it out til the end. If they jumped on another star or other free agents... it would always bother me to wonder if we ever had a chance of signing Kawhi. I would always choose chasing Kawhi with the possibility of missing out and ending up with Danny Green and Morris. If you have the opportunity to have Lebron James, Anthony Davis and Kawhi Leonard on the Lakers? You shoot your shot every time.

    If we don't get him, no regrets.

    So if we sign Kawhi,

    can we keep KCP with his bird rights or we only have room for him?
