    for Marcin Gortat. Might be a sign they expect Jordan to opt out.

    Seems like an odd fit for the Wiz. I guess they see him as sixth man subbing for Beal?

    Why are they dumping Gortat? Who is their center? Or are they just going to go guards and forwards?

    Probably. Dallas is a good trading partner. They wouldn’t need to send equal salary back. Good way for LA to get something decent in return

    Or maybe they know DJ is opting out.

    I doubt it. Gortat isn’t a wing. Doesn’t fit what Olshey has talked about, unless you believe we would’ve packaged 15/24 for someone else.

    What the hell is wrong with you?...... You didn't use the word "Rook", even once!

    But, yes, the thread should be labelled "OT"

    I think you hit the nail on the head. Dallas is the likely destination.

    If it is a slow day, which it is with no games going on, I do not have a problem with these. Let threads like this sit for a day and then roll them into another combined thread.
