Clippers coach Doc Rivers and president Lawrence Frank had dinner Tuesday night in LA with Knicks free agent center Kyle O’Quinn, per source. The two sides will continue to talk.

Thibs should move Wiggins but no one team wants him...I also doubt Wolves GM/owners would let him to move Kat.
Wolves wouldn't gamble on keeping Kawhi. It's pretty obvious that Kawhi would leave Minnesota in next offseason while Butler would stay in SA.

I agree with part of that, especially the part about people not wanting Wiggins (because of his salary) but, I disagree about Kawhi leaving. At the end of the day I don't think he walks away from a $185M contract to go take something $40M less from another team. I know his team says he would but I don't believe it with his injury history. Is gamble on that and I think that's part of the reason we haven't made a deal because I think he resigns here if push comes to shove.
On Wiggins though, I think we could do well with him and get more out of him than Thibbs can. DJ, Wiggins, and Kat is a pretty strong nucleus going forward and still having L MA for a couple years make us compe ive.
More the like would be a three way trade between Clippers, Wolves and Spurs with KL landing in LA, and maybe Aldridge and Tobias Harris landing in Minnesota, with Wiggins and Towns in SA with others going out to balance salaries.
Minnessota will never give up Towns. Never.

now
Free agent Amir Johnson is finalizing a one-year deal to return to the 76ers, league source tells ESPN.
I think there's smoke there. I've seen alot of people in the press saying they don't think he's on that team within 2 years. He probably won't end up here but they will move him.
Towns is looking a lot like Cousins, maybe more like AD. A Kentucky center who isn't a leader, churns out stats, can't being a team into the playoffs.
Well in his defense, Butler is a cancer & it was his 1st playoffs, also I think Thibbs is a horrible coach.
Edit: can't lie tho, he's an idiot.
I doubt he likes Minnesota but who knows.
I'd love to have Kat on the Spurs, I really think Pop can fix his defense and develop him into a true superstar but Wolves wouldn't include him in a trade.On Wiggins though, I think we could do well with him and get more out of him than Thibbs can. DJ, Wiggins, and Kat is a pretty strong nucleus going forward and still having L MA for a couple years make us compe ive.
A tree way trade is a great idea. I'd say Butler and Wiggins since Wolves wouldn't move Kat. Butler is likely he would love to be Spurs' next franchise player and stay in SA long term.
I'm curious as to why nobody is mentioning Isaiah Thomas, do you think the Spurs FO are have even tried to contact him?
Kinda see him as a locker room cancer and diva. Guy can score, etc. Very ball dominant, doesn't defend (or try?) But I'd want him as a scoring punch off of the bench personally. He wants to be the #1 guy, wants his big pay day (none out there to be had unless he goes to a team with cap space for 1 year...). Thought I read somewhere that Orlando may be interested in him.

Minutiae to wow your friends at your July Fourth festivities: 52 agreements so far in N.B.A. free agency ... 29 of them outright one-year deals

So far three teams have sat out free agency, meaning they haven't signed any FAs or lost any FAs:
Atlanta
Chicago
Sacramento
Related: All three teams have the most cap space left in the league.
Cap-space breakdown
- By virtue of the Marco Belinelli signing, San Antonio is now hard-capped. The Spurs have $105 million in salary and are $24 million below the hard-cap threshold.
- To avoid the luxury tax ($123.7 million) and hard cap, San Antonio could possibly lose veteran Tony Parker and have to make a choice among restricted free agents Davis Bertans, Kyle Anderson and Bryn Forbes.

Looking to take on bad contracts but teams are instead being thrifty with FA signings. Very reluctant to give up Picks to move bad contracts
No major news yet??
He’s represented by Klutch Sports. Most likely he’ll be teaming up with other clients either with the Spurs or on another team by the time he’s due for a payday. That’s just how the cookie crumbles these days. Won’t be surprised if the Lamers asked for him to be thrown in a deal.
Ugh, Bjelica went for about half the MLE to Philly. Would have definitely preferred him to Marco.
Nice pickup for Philly
Uhm sayang.....did the Spurs not make an effort to sign him....?
