Were we expected to do anything big? I thought it was going to be mostly re-signing guys.

Aside from Grimes and Yabu - trading PG would be the only "big" thing and I don't forsee it happening. More curious to see what other teams do.

NAW to Atlanta for 4 years, $62 mil.

Is Grimes worth more than NAW?

I don't think so, this may be the ceiling.

Add Eason (RFA next summer) and Whitmore to the mix.

FVV/Holiday
Thompson/Sheppard
Durant/DDs
Giannis/Smith
Adams/Capella

Absolutely loaded.

They could go small ball w/ FVV / Thompson / Durant / Smith / Giannis. That's a crazy lineup.

Tyus Jones to Orlando. I think that's a good fit. Orlando got better this off-season.

We are a Giannis trade away from the East being complete buns so it’s not surprising Morey and Co want to compete this year.

Kawhi the **** out of Embiid, and have him ready for the playoff, lol I know, but this could be our finals run, just need him to be healthy. He can disintegrate ala Avengers Endgame after the title.

Substituting in Horford for Yabu would be unbelievable!

One guy I really like is Bol Bol. We can get him for nothing. He's a bit of a bonehead like his dad was at times, but he's long, he's athletic, he runs the floor, he can hit an open three, he can protect the rim, he can play power forward. In fact he's better suited for power forward. Bol is a steal for us if we sign him.

I wonder if Grimes just pulled a Caleb Martin. Caleb denied the Heat's offer to resign b/c he or his agent thought he could get more on open market. Ended up making half the amount.

What are the odds we could get Grimes for closer to $8MM...
