    Gordon is not that bad. He could play in the second unit next to JHS, or start alongside Reaves or Russell in the back court, if we happen to go with a small line up.

    Having Rui, Vando and Prince but starting none of them in favor of a 34 year old Gordon would be coaching malpractice.

    Lakers basically have around 42 million to split between Russell, Hachimura, and free agents with the all or part of the MLE.

    It seems like Eric Gordon's agent is following this path.

    For what it’s worth, there is someone on Reddit who called Bruce Brown to the Lakers a few days ago (before the reports of Lakers being confident about it), and then last night they updated that things changed and Brown was a lock for the Pacers.

    He also called us signing Prince for the BAE a few hours before it happened.

    He’s currently saying we’re not actually considering Gordon. Potentially could use part of the MLE on Gabe Vincent, but nothing concrete yet. Thinks Reddish will be signed soon. Rui will be staying at 4/64.

    Also said Van Vleet is a big domino right now. If Houston strikes out on him, they might pivot to DLo

    Obviously take this all with a massive grain of salt

    I need to see us linked to one f***ing big. Too many guards. I'm good.

    Seth Curry is underrated man, his shooting is almost as good as his brother and has a history of really good playoff performances.

    obvious problem is size and defence, but I feel we could really use a 45% shooter.

    What about split between Seth and Plumlee? I think I’d be happy with that. Or maybe we bring Mo back.

    Wow. That’s pretty much the MLE gone right? Not exactly sure how I feel…

    Wonder if that’s also a signal that DLo may be gone? Schröder definitely gone
