    Fresh start. His own team. Chance at something bigger. Just like coaches like taking their own staff places, players have their guys as well.

    Well if the Lakers can swing Robin and that's enough to land LaMarcus then we need to do it.

    Why do you think we're more likely to land LMA?

    Same contract. Starts at 18.8M. 7.5% raise to 20.2M in year 2. Another 7.5% increase in year 3.

    Well its the difference between 1 and 2% but simple: Aldridge gave us a second meeting.

    15 mil for Matthews though? No way no how. Cut that in half, like that achilles is going to do to his career. Whoever is taking that on will regret it. That is not getting value for the player.

    Kings are desperate and throwing cash at him as a last ditch attempt.

    All meetings "go well" according to the teams conducting them. Except ours...at least from outside sources. :)

    Yeah that was an idiotic move by them. Clearing space like they've got any chance at FAs.

    Someone posted a comment somewhere that Divac is also clueless about the cap, CBA rules and all that jazz.
