You mean they aren't going to let themselves be held hostage by a player under contract?!!?
SHOCKING!!!

It's very odd, Australian betting agencies have boston and Philly much longer odds than lakers and suns. Good value in that case!

Probably thinking that Pop won't deal as easily with a Western team.

Still, amazing that us vs Australia bookies could have such different views

no need to offer anything more than table scraps for a player that quit on his teammates, coaches, fans, and the game itself. spurs should sue him for last years pay + fine. signed a contract that he no longer likes.. sad

What's wrong with Kawaii?

OP: No Knicks?

Sounds like the betting agency takes this into consideration:

If you can tell me that Kahwi won't leave after the one season and that LBJ is the next move for the Sixers, I'm OK with this. I just see the 76ers getting played in this one, also not sure that he is healthy.

Sixers lack a ballast. What are they gonna give to match the salaries?

Celtics makes sense for Spurs, just like Celtics makes sense for any trade because they have so many pieces. Kawhi/Irving/Hayward gives you instant super team. One of the young guy plus some picks will do.

Can't pay everyone, unfortunately.
