Now that AD is a Laker, what is our next opportunity to get frustrated? Blake Griffin? Where do we go from here guys?
Were gonna end up with Kevin Love on draft night. Or we’re gonna use our expirings to move up and get an expensive rotational player.
Blake Griffin is gonna end up in Oklahoma for a bunch of role players and a 1st round pick, and we sign Nik Stauskas again, that would be so typical
Hark, Leonard, and #25 is my offer but idk if that’d be enough. They’d probably ask for either Collins or Simons.
Next come the 4 horsemen, and then the fires, followed by the floods, followed by people wondering why the floods didn’t happen during the fires.
It won't be much. Cleveland should be begging to get rid of that contract. I think they may have signed him thinking it was an asset that they could trade and get value. They have to realize by now it won't happen. They should be begging for the ending contracts of ET, and Leonard plus our 25, That is a fair deal Dame, CJ, Harkless, Love and Collins until Nurk gets back. Yes it is a risk due to health, but AD was just as injury prone and he was on a 1 year rental. (albeit a much better player) At least with this we are only giving up cap space after next season.
What comes next is we limp through the first half of the season until Nurk comes back, we play well enough to get the 4th or 5th seed and then we lose in the first or second round of the playoffs. But it's okay because the 2020-2021 season will be different! Stotts will figure out how to beat the trap, our defensive scheme will defend the pick and roll, and CJ will learn to pass the ball!!!!
Yes I do think Love fits in well with our players. He fits next to Nurk and Collins. He gives us a PF who can spread the floor, sets a pick. rebound, and is an excellent passer. But yes it reeks of desperation. I hate the constant nagging injuries and his contract. This year it would be no problem since you get rid of ET and Meyer's contract, but sure the next 3 years are around 31, 31, 29....... A little high.
