Weird. Does this mean we're keeping Lauri? We literally have no PFs. I mean, at this point we should. We need some assets.

I really wish it was for Lauri, and we didn't need to give up a first round pick, but hey, this puts us as a legit playoff team, and anything less what be a huge disappointment.

I'm curious to see what his contract will be.
Why so serious?

Happy you guys are getting an all-star guard but isn't Thad a helpful complimentary player to hide Vuc's deficiencies?

Oof, that sounds like a lot to give up and a lot of money for DeRozan. Waiting on the details, but not sure about that one.

Wow...if we resign Lauri now this team will be pretty solid.

A lot of people here owe AKME some apologies. In a one-year span he added Vuc, DeRozan, and Ball. That is an astronomical talent upgrade.

thad rules but a lot of his skills are duplicative with vucevic (passing, post scoring) and if they're both on the court at the same time you have 0 rim defense

That is a lot of money. I'm sure the pick is protected.

I'm not sure how I feel about giving up a 1st round pick and keeping Lauri over Thadgic.
