The rest is up in the air.
-The Claw probably stays in Toronto (win or lose)
-Kyrie probably goes to Brooklyn and I wouldn't be shocked to see Butler join him.
-I think the Knicks can make a better offer for AD than the Lakers.
-Kemba resigns with the Hornets for the supermax
-Klay resigns with GSW for max
-Cousins resigns with GSW unless a team blows him away with an offer.
Agree
Agree on Kyrie but I see Butler in LA
Maybe - but they should push for AD and max Durant
Agree
Agree - they have too if Durant opts out
I think Demarcus will want more than 6.3 and since lakers or Knicks might be shut out - he will get 36+/3 is my guess. The man has skills
KD - at first I thought he takes player option, but if he gets 4 or 5 year max deal he will likely be very tempted to take that security....not sure though if he will want to stay in GS or not in that case
Kawhi 50/50 TOR/LAC
Kyrie 75/25 Brooklyn/NY, but likely only goes to NY if they get someone else, and maybe same with Brooklyn, so if neither get anyone else, small chance he goes elsewhere...not sure about Lakers but maybe a small chance - I think there is a decent chance Tobias Harris goes to Brooklyn with him...they are targeting PF
AD I don't think Knicks can make a better win now offer than Lakers, but Robinson would give them a great defensive big (however not an ideal pairing with Zion who would work better with a stretch like Brook Lopez)...Boston can make best offer
Kemba and Klay stay
Cousins probably goes elsewhere, especially if KD stays in GS because they can't pay him much..don't even think they can pay him much if KD leaves if they keep other big 3....likely will go where the money is..not sure who would want him though.
