Jerami Grant 27M for 3 years. They're about to pay the tax equivalent to the GOP of a small country. Should've done it years ago when they actually had the chance to win the title.

Sacramento and Atlanta could use him.. Memphis, too.

Hadn't thought of Memphis, but Sac and Atl might be smart to give the guy a shot. Think it's too early to label this kid a bust.

Biggest suprise to me is PG. I guess he enjoyed how much they looked like hot garbage in the playoffs. Meh. Can't be the brightest dude.

So.....you would have rather him go to the Lakers??

I personally do not care where PG ends up in the west. I just thought it made more sense to pair up with Lebron for title aspirations then to go back to that hot slop OKC looked like a lot last year. Unless they think they can make it work in year 2 in OKC.

Also he got paid well I am guessing.

Also shows that when these fools say "I wanna play for da Lakers wahhhhh" then minds can be changed. *coughKawhicough*

OKC needs to deal Melo. Maybe deal Melo to Lakers and take back Deng. Save $9 mil for one year

Some teams need scoring, shooting, no conscience checkers, and can wait on defense.

I think Washington could make some trades, they’re on the treadmill.. Wall, Beal or both..

If Cousins leaves and AD goes on the market, could Philly outbid us with Saric, Fultz, and no big contracts going out?

Jaylen alone beats such a garbage package.

It will be a mistake with lebroni unless the sixers traded Simmons and oher players for Leonard. I don’t think the spurs would want Simmons.

The guy wants to get paid. How much where the lakers gonna offer him? Maybe some guys don’t like the pressure. I think he’s a good player but he’s a tad overrated. Might as well cash in.

If I'm OKC I'm dealing Melo anywhere I can but I think the only way they'll be able to do it is by attaching their 2022 1st. Who in the hell would be willing to do this? Maybe no one. Maybe Chicago after they see what they have to match to keep LaVine?

Or maybe OKC decides they got that F you money and are just gonna eat the biggest lux tax bill ever. Either way I don't see the Melo thing being settled in the next few days.

You don’t think the Spurs would want Simmons? That’s ridiculous.

*phew* and with Paul George gone.

That's the best of all worlds.

Not that it wasn't obvious that LeBron wants a primetime announcement tomorrow with Magic and going to the Lakers but... man.

And with PG and LeBron off the market there's a lot of fan pressure in Philly to stay with the young and not risk it all on Kawhi to win now... to which the owners have to see that and like the idea of making playoff money for 10 years versus a potential 1 year Finals run or 7 year Finals run.

Safe move is to not trade for Kawhi for the 76ers franchise.

Which... without an all-star joining Philly and LeBron stuck in LA with only Cousins and some kids... choo chooo we're going to the Finals to face the Warriors boys!

I guarantee you the Spurs would want him.

Edit: Zeroforwinger beat me to it.

I am not a Simmons fan. We saw what happened against the Celtics. The guy can’t shoot. To each his own.

John Wall to PHO for Chriss, Knight, Warren?

would be funny if spurs trade a broken kwahi to the lakers only to then sign lebron. somebody humor me and show me how this is possible.

Was able to snap a pic of Danny during the flurry of FA signings...

I have a weird obsession with TJW. I'd trade Rozier/Morris/Nader for him.
