Ariza and Ellington both seem like good signings to me.

This team is about to be so old

Is Ellington just a spot up guy or can he shoot off the move/coming off picks?

I’m a bit bummed about Jeff Green to the Nuggets. Happy for him as he’s more than deserved to get paid honestly. Has positive impact year in, year out, but I wanted to see him in LAL.

AD/Dwight/Gasol is a solid C rotation.

Thrilled with the Dwight signing. The Sixers need to shore up their big-man depth now.

Love bringing Dwight back

I still want AD to start the 5 on most nights

If its a really big physical C, then go Marc or even Dwight

I think thats enough bigs

I am meh on the Ariza and Wayne signings, but solid for the vet min I guess

Ariza still a net positive/neutral guy though b/c of his D (but so was Wes until this year)

Hopefully Wayne keep up his good shooting

I hope they run some of the 2018 Korver Cleveland sets with Ellington. When Westbrook sits and it's a LeBron + bench lineup, Ellington coming off screens could really help spark that stagnant offense.

Wes wasn’t great defensively with Milwaukee. He was showing real signs of wear. I like Ariza on D more than Wes because of his size.

Probably another sign that Caruso is gone. They don't need that many guards, Russ, Mills, Ellington, THT, Wes potentially. Plus LeBron is a ball handler too.

Best case scenario besides going to the Lakers imo. Kawhi might be out the whole year and I didn't want him going to Golden State or Brooklyn

Dennis' market keeps drying up. I think only NOP left as cap space teams looking for a point guard? And there have been no reports connecting him with them.
