probably gonna sign 1yr contract and then, in 2022, sign 5yrs max
Ballmer is going to pay the 4 year max for Kawhi because what else is he going to do ?

I haven't read much about D.J as a person (his last twitter post seems a little concerning though), but the physical tools and profile intrigue.
I mentioned him earlier being a possible Trey Lyles-sy signing, reclamation project, hopefully with a better outcome.
Along with their interest in Patty, it's going to cost them; Brown and Tatum.

New: Per sources, the Celtics will have interest in veterans Jeff Green and Rudy Gay, among others, as free agency opens Monday. More: bostonglobe.com/2021/08/01/spo…
We could add this too
Barry Jackson: Another of those SFs-who-can-play-PF UFA names to keep an eye on: Rudy Gay (11.4 ppg, 4.1 rbs, 38.1 on threes last yr). Heat has interest, per source.(One of several PFs on Miami’s list.) Miami will need to find 2 PFs if Precious included in Lowry trade.Could bring back Ariza too

With Westbrook now headed to Los Angeles, multiple league personnel contacted by B/R expect there to be significant interest from several veterans, including DeMar DeRozan, Rudy Gay and Carmelo Anthony, to forgo higher salary opportunities elsewhere and join the Lakers in pursuit of a championship
So gay/mills,and demar auditioning for a ring ? Spurs better get something for one of those guys
So who’s played out the Miami S&T scenario?
Could both teams sign & trade Demar for Duncan Robinson? Both are considered free agents, I wouldn’t mind if the spurs said screw it and signed all the shooters they can get
I am right there with you if Spurs front office comes out with nothing from LMA, Rudy, Mills, and Derozz then they definitely need to be fired!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only thing that makes sense at this point is Lowry signing with the Mavs, Spurs sign and trading Derozan for Portzingis IMO
That would be... interesting.
Interesting........
The Lowery to MIA S&T seems baked now that they picked up Drogen’s option. I assume then they’re hoping DeRozen takes the full MLE which I think is just shy of $10M. Seems very possible, i which case we lose him for nada.
Oh well.
Portz salary is pretty crazy. A few million more per year than Collins.
There is little chance that the Mavs would see DDR as a better fit than Portzingis. I can see them adding DDR in place of someone else on their roster but I’d bet there are better options than swapping those two players.
F that. If that’s the route, have them sign DDR and work out the S&T with raptors instead
There's really not that much good free agents or even trade pieces available.
If there's no good trades might as well maintain flexibility to next year, or get some picks from bad players
something tells me we will be saying this for a while
So I’ve always been some what confused by this but the spurs do have to use some of their cap space they have right? They couldn’t just be like ehhh we’re not gonna sign anybody, they would have to at least do like 1 year deals at least

ESPN Sources: Once discussions are permitted to begin with the opening of NBA free agency on Monday, the Miami Heat are positioning themselves to become frontrunners to land Toronto's Kyle Lowry in a sign-and-trade agreement: es.pn/3ymcPtm
I think they would still have to pay the space to the players. I don't get the whole logistics behind it. But I'm imagining dejounte Murray and white to just get more money or something.
I don’t think a Lowry signing is going to work out very well. He seems like a candidate to fall off a cliff soon.
Come on sa! if tor can get something for kyle you can do it for ddr!
unfortunately. but the packages arent really that enticing, a mix of lauri, kristaps, oubre, duncan robinson, and kuzma is pretty meh. Of course we can start building this year, add some more next year until we become a more compe ive team.
But it seems the choices that we have are pretty meh. Just dont want to tie up big money (like kristaps) to be not playoff.
