What about Chanlder for Monroe/Tele/future first?
It's close to working. We have about 14-15 million in cap space. Need 15.3+/- to pull it off. Could include Barbuda ungarunteed. Or pick up Milsap and include him.
Monroe and Tele could be trade bait at the 2018 deadline. Flip them for more assets.

Weather. Dragic, Waiters Island and Whiteside. Pat Riley. Spo. I could see it.
The only advantage Boston has is Brad Stevens.

I think it would be pretty badass to be born in a jungle. I thought he was referring to the age thing, where teams think he is 3-4 years older than he says he is.
Has Ibaka gotten any free agency love yet?
He is talking about the age thing.
Also, did anyone else read his birth city as BraZZerville?

The Raptors could be looking to trade DeMarre Carroll in a salary dump move, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.com.
Woj says that the Raptors are looking to get Carroll's bad contract off the books and may use a protected first-round pick to help find a team to take it. The emergence of Norman Powell is a clear factor in this thinking, and it doesn't help that Carroll's knee basically hasn't been 100 percent since he signed his deal two years ago.
A protected 1st round pick? SMH.....pass.

So basically he is 27... so then that means... he fits our timeline better than Griffin
Lets get Ibaka!

The fact that no one believes he is 27 (lol) is probably costing him millions of dollars. Maybe tens of millions.

I don't want Boston to get Hayward because Ainge has all these assets and hasn't used them, but then again I don't want the Heat to get Hayward because that diminishes our pick value. I don't want the Jazz to keep Hayward because it keeps the West even stronger. Out of the three evils, I'd prefer Hayward go to Boston.

2 years left at $15M each. Would take a little more than a late first for me to swallow that contract. I'd probably ask for Poetl and a top 3 protected 1st.

And that is exactly why he posted that.

Are the Clippers actually going to try and contend? I'm assuming Griffin is getting at least 30mil this upcoming season which puts the Clippers at a total of 108mil salary cap. They traded in CP3 for Lou Williams and Beverly, and they lost Redick. I guess maybe they can make the 8th seed, but I see Jordan taking a pretty big hit in terms of his efficiency without Paul there. I feel Lou, Crawford, and Rivers are all the same one dimensional player.

Westbrook/Gay/George is a decent trio.

Another "Knight for Bad contract" idea:
Raptors very well could be losing Lowery. The only other PG on the roster is Delon Wright. The have been looking to trade Valanfvkjbhgbkvs (SP?).

Nah, I'd do it for the first. Firsts are hard to come by.

Soooo...now it's clear!
Until next time we hear something different, as has been the case with this schizophrenic franchise.
I'll keep myself mildly optimistic, but fully aware we might change directions again sooner than later.
Until then let's enjoy the youth.

InB4 OKC is the "Mystery Team" in the Millsap sweepstakes, and we take on Kanter for McDermott and a 1st.
Westbrook/Gay/George/Millsap/Dirty Kiwi

If Blake is facilitator, than Bev and Lou are nice starting guards who can spot up for 3s and Bev can take tougher defensive assignment. Dekker is a shooter too and could become a nice starting 3.
