    I agree. If we could get both, it would be great. Harris and Seth are top notch three point shooters. In terms of shooting, they are both huge upgrades over Monk and guys we could potentially get, like Gordon. Adding Kyrie, Harris and Seth would make me fell better about us signing a bunch of below average shooters. Trade could be adjusted as WB, THT (and/or Nunn), 2027 1st and 2029 1st going to Brooklyn for Irving, Harris and Curry.

    PG-Irving/Reeves/Nunn
    SG-Harris/ Curry/ Walker
    SF-James/JTA/ Brown/ Christie
    PF-Davis/ Johnson/ Gabrial
    C-Bryant/ Jones/

    Yeah, it's a good deal for Otto.

    We probably could have nabbed him but #Klutch.

    Actually, his wife is from Toronto. He might have just opted to go there after all even if we offered him the same deal.

    The pacific division will definitely be murderers row. The sad part is we know GS, Phoenix, and Clippers will be good. The Lakers will be a question mark because we have so many variables, and in theory Sacramento may be decent as well

    Need to take Buss and the financial part into things a little and get off the "getting both" of Harris and Curry thing. I dont think the Nets would want to take on THT's 10 million and the Nunn expiring thing does little for them as far as cap savings.

    No, I think it is more than likely they force a team to take on Harris' deal in the KD trade since they aren't likely to get the "player package" they want for him.

    We get Curry and send a #1 and swap choice on the other as well as ask Irving to waive his trade kicker of 5.5 million...

    Then we go and get P.J. Washington from the Hornets for THT and one of our 2nd round picks. I think Charlotte waits out the legal ramifications on Bridges (he is too good a player not to) and with the 4/32 (what???) they just invested in Coby Martin, PJ may be the odd man out among the forward group (especially since they are likely stuck with Hayward). They are rumored to be wanting a guard and are even considering Kemba Walker once his buyout gets finalized...instead we send them another young guard to put with Ball/Rozier.

    Then we need that "surprise" signing and we get TJ Warren to take the minimum as well as the rumored Thomas Bryant signing. Not only does this put us closer to 160 million (instead of 175+ with Harris), but it leaves our books clean for the most part for 2023....

    PF PJ Washington
    SF LeBron James
    C Anthony Davis
    SG Seth Curry
    PG Kyrie Irving

    F T.J. Warren
    G Austin Reaves
    G Kendrick Nunn
    C Thomas Bryant
    F/G Juan Tascano-Anderson
    G Lonnie Walker IV
    F Stanley Johnson
    C Damian Jones
    F Troy Brown Jr.
    F Wenyen Gabriel* (non guaranteed)
    F Max Christie (R)

    That would be about as ideal as we could have hoped for...........

    It's interesting because it complicates a KD to Phoenix move.

    I’d take Curry and Harris as well if we could include THT and maybe Nunn. Those are two incredible shooters.

    Jeanie complained about paying the luxury tax, paying the more restrictive repeater tax isn’t something that I can see her agreeing to do. Negotiating for Curry instead of Harris is an example of that.

    We need 45% from 3 from Harris. That would get her a title. Title earns more caysh. Title has the C Bags looking up to our butts.
