    That's good. AD gets to play the position he wants in PF and we have a legit shot blocking front court with the lop threat always there.

    Glad he’s back. Our front court is locked, cheap guards are all thats left.

    Alright, I’m good with this. It’s more than I’d have liked, but he earned above the minimum last season. He’s super solid, glad to have him back. Just please no rondo unless for the minimum. PLEASE.

    Get ready for it. It’s just a matter of time until the Rondo thread is bumped with that bad news.

    Agree. Morris would be perfect. And the rookie Perkins will be a good bench player - a mix of Randle and Zion. Watched him here in Buffalo closely.

    JaVale was also a defensive beast early in the season protecting the rim... that illness really took a lot of him later on.

    Is this a minimum deal for him, room exception, or cap?

    Quinn Cook over Rondo, please.

    I fear Iggy will go to the Clips. Him with Beverly PG and KL is scary to think about - a true switch and stop crew.

    They could use this as the room if they wanted, although it's not the full amount of the room exception.

    Based on what Memphis has been reporting, Iggy is likely to be traded again, and probably would not be waived.

    Unfortunately he just makes to much to try and trade him into our cap space at 17m

    If we have used the MLE or Min on McGee, then we still have a decent amount of Cap left..Right.?

    I'm glad for this. McGee was dynamite before he got that sickness. Never quite got back to that level but he did well for us last year. I can see him playing equally well for us this year if not as many minutes.
