    If we can get Buddy, Gay, Melo and Patty, that would address all the spacing needs (with Gasol, Ben Mac, Kief, and Wes returning, especially. And McKinnie is not terrible from distance).

    Russ, Patty (exception still there if we get Buddy?), McLemore
    Buddy, THT, Wes
    Bron, Gay, McKinnie
    AD, Melo, Kief (who I see going to the Clips)
    Gasol, Dwight, Jones

    Buddy, THT, McLemore, McKinnie, and Jones are still young enough to help us load manage the season (along with the two-way players).

    That team can play any style and fits both Bron and Russ very well. Would also help THT continue to expand his game.

    plumlee's a nice, serviceable center. olynyk is a solid backup pf/c (but not a starter at either spot, whereas plumlee can start, imo). i guess det wants to shift philosophy to a high-scoring outfit with the new draft pick?

    Not just Cookie. I was tempted to give him 2 warnings for this abomination of a post.

    So, which Laker FAs or Lakers links are the Clippers interested in this year?

    watch nobody question that he'd sign there for the mini MLE (which is all they have--they can't even accept s&t without sending out a bunch of salary first).

    well, the two guys we traded for him shot 8-42 from three against phx, so no big loss there, eh?

    miami picked up dragic's option? he's either being traded for lowry or they're giving up on lowry. because that eats most of their space.

    knowing riles, he's got the trade (and probably another signing) in the bag already.

    We lost to Phoenix because AD was hurt. The formula is simple. Had nothing to do with 3 point shooting

    not against the trade but you cant be shooting 29% from 3s an expect to win consistently in playoffs given how easily it is to goat westbrick into those kinds of shots (we saw it 1st hand against hou)

    Heat declined the team option on Iguodala.

    He’s a old man now but I would love him on this team for the minimum. He can still play D better than most and would still be one of the better defenders available this offseason, knows how to be a playmaker, and is a capable 3 point shooter.

    Yeah, it's a very optimistic trade. Do not be surprised if Eagle is included in sign and trade though.
