apparently, it’s not until July 6 that the Dwight to BKN deal becomes official and only then can they negotiate a buyout.

If they can sign him for the vet minimum for 1 year, I'm all for it.
His talent is worth the potential reward, while the risk is minimal. If it doesn't work out you can just cut him.

Is this a joke? This is like bringing your psycho ex-wife back to your house after a messy divorce!

Naw. It's more like hooking up with a psycho hot ex girlfriend, who you had a short fling with (1 NBA season), who knows she's getting on in the years and her rep went down the **** for awhile (DHo being tossed around like a rag). You're looking to hook up with her again for another short fling (1 NBA season) cuz you havent had prime poontang (top flight FA) or even a half decent relationship in years (our 5 years of pure and utter suck).
You FINALLY got a new high social status high paying job (signing LBJ) and want to get any edge you can to compete your younger rival who's had a run of extra ordinary success that made you look like an utter loser for years (GSW).
You know you're gonna bang and toss while spending as little money/commitment as possible (5.6m or maybe even vet min), BUT she needs to keep up appearences of "turning over a new leaf while still being a hottie" to try to sucker a future dude into marrying her (DHo's next and likely final major contract).
You're both using each other. She's needs to keep herself in top physical shape while giving you little drama possible. If she gets all crazy or whatever, you toss her ass out. It's all good, you still have your awesome job (LBJ for 3+1), you're still working your way up to your dream girl and have a great chance to get her (Kawhi). If everything falls into place you get that dream girl while giving up as little of your assets as possible (keep Kuzma/Lonzo), although you know she's gonna cost you something MAJOR (Ingram). Once you're together you got a puncher's chance to knockdown that upstart rival of yours.
Heh. It's gonna be one helluva ride, you already made a bunch of new crazy friends (Rondo, Lance, McGee), lets see how it goes adding some more crazy into the mix

Heh, oh well. We got so many crazy **** on the team, and with no chance at beating GSW currently might as well increase the "fun".

Pretty sure the FO is content with McGee/Zubac/Wagner as the crop of centers.
I still think a 16/12 player for one year is nothing to sneeze at, despite his rep.

Guys, leave this kind of thing to the professionals...
