Very true.
Gasol easily...LMA at least can play defense
Very true.
You're blowing it way up. We still have vet leadership.
And golden state was pretty young when they won it. Their main core was
I guess it is more hope thank reality. But something I would like seen done.
LMA he would bring back a better package.
.
-Sign and trade LA for CP3.
-Let Patty go.
-Let Simmons go.
-Sign Dedmon.
-Sign Korver.
-Manu for the min.
-Draft wings.
CP3, Green, Leonard, Bertans, Dedmon
Tony, Manu, Korver, Anderson, Pau
Murray, Forbes, drafted wing, drafted wing, vet min big.
Doesn't preclude a third team from being involved to get Green. I'm not a fan of trading Green but if there's someone there at 22 he's one of the few traceable chips.
Nicholson fell off the face of the earth after Washington poached him - looked okay on paper and thought to have upside like everyone on the Magic (seemingly) but his advanced stats have always been mediocre and doesn't do anything especially well. He's a power forward at a SF height.
22nd pick wasn't only to take on Nicholson. Bogdanovic was the key piece to getting the pick.
Really hoping we go back to the beautiful game.
The Spurs sans Parker, Leonard, LMA and Pop had a private party at Tacoland earlier today. They were all dressed up. Pau as Rocky and Manu and Mills were in drag. Some pics should surface soon. Green is a crazy good tipper too.
Those days are gone
I wish the Spurs could find a way to get Bogdan Bogdanovic from the Kings. There's no way Vlade let's the most intriguing Serbian prospect go anywhere but one can dream.
Why would the Clippers want LMA, Blake and Jordan, tying up +/- 70% of their cap space on 3 bigs?
Griffin won't be back with the Clippers tbh. Most likely ends up in OKC.
'Cause they wouldn't have much of a say if Paul wants to play for another team. In that case, Clippers can either sign and trade Paul to wherever CP3 wants, just to get something in return, or let him walk for nothing.
OKC have no money.
S&T imo
For Kanter ? Why would Clippers do that ? Even if Paul is gone, that does not make sense. Better option would be snt for Carmelo Anthony even.
Was thinking more along the lines of Oladipo and McDermott. Clips will need a shooter to replace Red and Oladipo can actually start in place of Red himself.
That will leave OKC with need of shooters to replace Oladipo and McDermott. OKC is failry stacked at backcourt - Adams, Kanter, Sabonic, Collison. Griffin is not a good fit.
They can trade Kanter to another team for a shooter, just might have to attach a first rounder to do so. Sabonis should also hopefully grow a bit during the off season ability-wise and become a more respectable shooter. The fact is you don't turn down a talent like Griffin if you're OKC; you get him then try to figure out how to make it work.
Westbrook + Griffin would be explosive AF, but do you think this has a real possibility of happening? Let's assume that CP3 want to play for the Spurs and no longer for the Clips... is a S&T a real possibility capwise?
It would, Clipps would be much under salary cap if Paul and Griffin dont pick their PO. Only way to make it easy for Spurs to sign Paul is that, Griffin leaves and snt offer from SA is for LMA. But Spurs with Paul 30mil wouldn't be better team and there will be very little option to go for 3rd star in 2018.
If Paul wants to come, then it has to be for 22-25mil top. If PATFO think that will be good move for Spurs, they will manage to do it salary wise.
I think it's where Griffin most likely ends up, but Griffin for Melo could happen too assuming Griffin wants to play in NY. At this point Griffin gets to decide his future.
As for CP0, I 100% think he takes the money and stays with the Clippers. I just don't think winning takes a priority in his life, especially when $200mil is the alternative.
Griffin thinks the Earth is 6000 year old. He is dumb as. He will take the money.
