Around the League: 2018 Offseason

[specialsauce]

Randle on New Orleans is interesting. He's a really good fit with AD... curious what cousins does

That has to mean Cousins is headed to LA IMO

[Split T]

LA doesn't have much money left...I think 5 million, they could stretch Deng I guess... Or does cousins sign for 5 million?

I was really impressed by Tyreke last yr, he was still having maintenance days though and somehow I feel he went to Memphis thinking Playoffs then ended up playing with youngsters.
Not sure if this situation is what he's looking for but that's just my hunch

[specialsauce]

If they trade Ingram and Kuzma to SA for Kawhi that leaves them with

Ball/Rondo
KCP
Kawhi/Stephenson
LeBron
Cousins/McGee

Pretty good team

[Split T]

They're gonna have to convince SA to take Deng

[Superbone]

Any team with LeBron is at least pretty good.

It will be interesting to see if Thomas can get healthy and what team signs him.

What are the Lakers doing???

I always thought LeBron would want Rondo. He probably doesn’t want Ball. I still hope the Suns will try to trade for Ball.

Do we need to start discussing if we should go after Ball for the Suns? Sounds like the Lakers are moving away from him. Would it be worth having to deal with Lavar?

If Lonzo could figure out his shooting issues, he'd be such a good fit. Very good defender, super unselfish, ball doesn't stick in his hands. He'd be the best to happen to Ayton.

If we had a stronger organization I'd have fewer concerns about his helicopter dad.

Anthony Tolliver signs a one year deal with Minnesota. Worth a little more than $5 million.

They've brought in some ... 'crafty' players in Randle and Payton. I'm very curious to see how Gentry uses them. They need shooting, though.

I badly wanted to see Cousins S&Td to WAS for Otto Porter. The Pels had a huge problem at SF all year. Porter would have bought elite 3-point shooting as well as defense to the position albeit at a huge salary. I like Randle though but it's as you said, they need shooting in the worst way. Seth Curry is out here getting a $3M deal. Could have easily fit him into the room exception there.

Don't love the Payton fit but I'm glad he's home. None of us have seen how he can shoot without his crazy hairdo. Maybe he surprises. If the idea is to start him alongside Jrue then I don't like it but he's a solid backup there.

Cousins is going to the Dubs per Shams.

Seriously?

76-6 next year.

[Flagrant Fowl]

I'm glad we're not trying to win a title for the next couple of years.

I still want to see how Cousins fits into that team, especially coming off of his injury.
