    Think this is the case of Nuggets doing the half assed reach for the check. The Joker pressure is becoming a whisper, they need to appear to be in on all big names even if there's no path.

    Sure they could do it, but like you said it would involve basically flipping all their vet assets in separate deals, each netting you a first to even get you near their ask.

    So Brown/White for Murray/Gordon/Johnson works. Johnson fits into the C Bags' trade exception.

    You beat me to it. Just like Bridges.

    Talent is there, which sucks for us. I just hate him as a human being.

    Still going to be very easy to dislike them with the bad Bs. Brooks, Booker and Bridges

    Good point Abeer. Actually smart. Herro would play better off of Luka not needing the ball. More of a catch and shoot shooter in the mold of Klay. And you get your lob threat rim protector who protects your defense in Ware.

    The Lakers need to do something. I don’t know what it is. But it’s unacceptable. Don’t be living off of you traded for Luka.


    Suns

    Booker
    Green
    Brooks
    Bridges
    Williams

    that’s a damn good team. I guess Charlotte doesn’t want to pay anybody.

    Charlotte Fans right now. My bad JCole.

    No Brown would hate Portland because his owner is a penny pincher. But Denver can’t offer s***. Unless they sign and trade Peyton Watson and Gordon. Or trade Murray for Brown.

    isn’t it interesting that Jokic hasn’t signed his contract yet????

    Charlotte has 50M before the tax and the big TPE. Sabonis makes a ton of sense there

    Wade is a better version of Jake and Vando - he's a solid addition to the roster. You can play him against OKC and SAS

    Can I hear some stuff about Lakers taking fliers on Marvin Bagley and Josh Pinot???

    Robert Williams???? Why are we holding up buisness for Jalen Duran??? There’s no way he’s signing here.

    Can we get in on this Cam Johnson or Aaron Gordon???? I’d much rather have Aaron Gordon than Peyton Watson.

    all that money for 14.6 points.

    but here we are. Gotta get that lob threat.

    nothing on the Ayton and Smart opt ins.

    Lebron quiet.

    Give us something.

    seems like charlotte is cleaning out the character issues and are willing to sacrifice talent to do it.

    guessing there was stuff behind the scenes they didn't like. you don't just blow up your best team in a while for funzies.

    not sure i'd want either of those guys, tbh.

    Jock Lawndale is fine.

    I don’t need Wade He averaged 5 points. LaRavia averaged 8 points.

    I don’t see a difference.

    just give me some more athleticsm.

    Can I get a trade for PJ Washington????
