    The contracts with Gabe are pretty similar
    He wanted a shot at being a starter which the Lakers weren't going to do with Dlo around.

    It's too bad as the combo is actually good

    Trade DLO and Vincent before they get hurt and trade Max before even the dumbest GM's realise he sucks.

    Bane an oblique strain and Marcus Smart (ankle) have both been ruled out for the remainder of the contest in what has been a parade of injuries for Memphis over the past 12 months.

    lol absolutely not. we agree on many things, but your schroder love is not one of them. every single of his teams is ready to move on from him. he left us for more money and because he still (erroneously) believes he's an nba starter. this is only true if you plan on finishing in the bottom 10.

    Cole Anthony has lost space in Orlando. He was balling out a couple years ago and is still young.
    Someone to look at if we trade DLo and are one PG short.
    He's more of an offensive player, but can be a spark off the bench and score some for you

    lol, i was looking at that exactly the other day. i wonder if a gabe/anthony swap makes sense. another veteran with some experience for orlando, some quickness in the back court for us.

    we'd need anthony to agitate a bit.

    All the vet mins. We have a depth problem because of them, so you need to attach them in a trade with DLo/Gabe/Vando/Max/JHS in order to improve the depth or free up a slot.


    I'm also monitoring Duop Reath. There's too many centers in Portland, they will move a couple of them. It may be Ayton and Robert Williams but he's one to monitor. He looked nice last year and played in the Olympics too.
    Paul Reed is also not playing in Detroit. These are the type of guys we can get with a couple 2nds

    Whoa! Guess that says what the Lakers FO is thinking about him. Gotta be a blow to him. Honestly, I wonder if they tried to move him but had no takers?
