Not saying it’s realistic but that and TNT is what we have.

Next year in February a crashing team with a young PG who wants to win (be traded) might consider using a $44M expiring for a semi rebuild.


So, some team is going to take on $44 million and give up a nice guard (and whatever else is needed to match salaries) to bail out LAL because reasons?


You asked what we had to offer. I said it’s not realistic. What’s up?


If the plan is to compete with James and AD, maybe look to pick up a solid pg with MLE and move THT for Terrence Ross.

That seems realistic. Not impressive, but better fitting talent.

MLE pg? Dragic maybe?

That's the thing that scares me most about Pelinka. He seems to have no clue on how to build a team, and just swings wildly in one direction. One year, it's all playmakers; next year it's all 3 and D; then it's all youth; and then all old. We need someone at the top who knows how to properly build a team and not just go with the flow
