    Welp Rob's MO has most always (always?) been to keep a spot open for the buyout market and done quite well with that.

    Memphis Grizzlies get Alexei Len, Colby Jones, . This is part of Smart’s trade waiting for details.

    Too bad Kleber can't be traded again.
    If Lakers made a play for KD using Reaves/Rui/Vincent/Kleber, there'll be no stopping
    PG - Luka, shake
    SG DFS
    SF KD, Vando
    PF Bron, Wood, Kieff
    C Williams, Hayes

    possible buyout/FA - Dennis, Marcus, Fultz

    SMH if he gets bought out...we can't sign him since we're a 1st apron team...any player that makes over $12.8M I guess first apron teams cannot sign those players at all...

    Don't ever call the Lakers, GIANTS, again. We have Dodgers fans here. This one I WILL NOT back track on. Come on LT, you’re better than that.

    “We’re light-years ahead of probably every other team in structure, in planning, in how we’re going to go about things,” he said. “We’re going to be a handful for the rest of the N.B.A. to deal with for a long time.” Joe Lacob, Warriors Owner

    Ben Simmons on a buyout is a good look for a contender, that's below the 1st Apron. I'm not sure who that would be though? The Clippers aren't a contender but Simmons would get some burn there. I'm not sure about the Cavs cap space.

    He should really give it a try with the Clippers. They could actually use him and it would help him to gain some confidence back.

    Jimmy's got mad skillz, still, but I can't help but see him as not a good teammate.

    What really blew my mind: he got $121 mil for TWO years.

    It is insane $$ for Jimmy. That contract is now almost as bad as Kawhi's. There is no way he can actually earn that contract, it's more money than Steph makes.
