Griffin will be making $39M by 2022, roughly twice Ibaka's AAV.

That's ridiculous.

By 2022 Kyle will be gone, Demar would be declining so what does it matter we would be tanking woth blake on payroll. You sub out Ibaka’s 22 mil, Norm 10+ mill and some bench pieces and you have enough to cover Blakes money.

And what if we're not tanking? What if we need the cap to extend most of our draft picks? I have a hard time picturing us being able to successfully tank if our bench unit comes right after the lowry/dd era

You do understand that our Bench unit are not projected to be all world starters, they are great because they are the bench! Are you saying they are our future starters? Maybe one of them may be but not all. You will need to rebuild by getting top 5 pivks to get talent like Demar and Lowry.

I'd think the Cavs would get it done with the BKN pick thrown in. Maybe they are both playing chicken and something gets done right at the cutoff.

Both teams are looking for a third team to make it happen.

Not big on DJ but it would make sense with our current make up. Not sure we have the package though JV + Norm + ?

Makes me nervous... what will we have to give up? How much would this move improve us, if at all?

DJ gets along really well with Demar and Kyle. Apparently they are all good friends

Mark my word the rebounding will immensly improve us, DJ is averaging friggin 14 boards! The lobs that FVV and Lowry would be doing along with him kicking out to shooter is sick. If Masai is doing this then i finally believe that the Org is commited to go into the Tax. Boston has no inside answer for us, it would take Cavs out of pic, washington loosing gortat man we would be great! Best chance for the finals!

LOL...Cleveland basically buying the plane ticket, packing Lebron's stuff and driving him to the airport. Perhaps the Cavs take back Luol Deng which pretty well solves all the Lakers problems
