    Joe Harris Will Receive Significant Interest Beyond Nets
    As he should. That the price point i figured he'd command. Too competitive of a market to get him for the mid level. Think it'll take a S&T. He's very high on my list for this off season

    Oh hell yeah we can use some of that. Can’t wait to finally see Cousins play alongside AD again. I trust in Rob and AD and LeBron and Boogie and Dwight again to make this happen. I have a feeling McGee is gone since he just sold a really nice luxury home?

    he could have as big an impact as Dwight had this year; of course, in a different way, but if the Boogie of Yore shows up, it will be huge for us.

    I'm down to bring back Cousins especially if dwight leaves or mcgee is dealt. That'll give us a 3rd legit scoring option..and he'll be cheap too.

    I love it man...we bought his loyalty

    In the same article from The Athletic that suggested the Clipps will blow things up, quoting anonymous agents, here's a tid bit about DD



    He's the ideal 3rd guy who could be available this off season.

    He'd be ideal if he actually shot any threes. He literally shoots 1 (!) three every other game. But yeah, his mid-range is super solid and he's a 20-5-5 guy. But I think we would expect him to shoot at least some threes here and there. Around 170-200 attempts per season would be a start. Not 45. I understand he shoots mid-range Js and he likes to dunk, but that's not necessarily what we need.. Green and Pope shoot 4-5 per game, DD should at least try 2-3 and hit them at a higher clip. Otherwise, there's no spacing.

    Looked like he was trying to comply to the league norm his last year in Toronto, attempting 3.6 per game. But Pop has him shooting fewer than he has since the 2010-2011 season, so I think some of that is on coaching. Not saying he's going to connect on those, but I think we can get him back up to 3-4 attempts a game from the corner.

    That's possible, sure, but it's obvious he needs to shoot more... I think he hits something like 38% from the corner, so parking him there (with Pope on the other end) with an opportunity to slash might work.

    OK fine. Do it. Give Pop DG back, Kuz who he likes and Quinn Cook for DD. Who says NO?

    Javale McGee sold his LA home. Who knows what that means. It makes it an easy decision for us to go after Dwight+Cousins or Ibaka.

    derozan's game doesn't seem like one that'd be successful alongside lebron

    i still think galinari should be their main priority
