    I like that Reke deal. It's a lot like Nic's.

    Robin Lopez isn't looking that bad right now tbh, especially over guys like Zaza and Kaman. I don't know if we'll be able to wait for Asik with DH being so indecisive.

    Too bad Tony Allen is gone.

    I thought maybe Olshey was waiting in the grass, hunting. I'm starting to think he fell asleep and will settle with whatever is left (Kaman, Zaza, etc). I can tell, these moves are exactly what LA had in mind.

    Exactly right. Let other teams spend their money and overpay. When the money dries up, there will still be players on the market willing to settle for the vet min. We're not winning anything this year, so why handcuff ourselves with bad contracts?

    im starting to fear our successful free agency is hinging on what Dwight does and I really didn't want that

    be careful how you decide what "success" really is, are you a short term or longer term thinker?

    Oh son of a bitch Neil, we need a RF, not a LF. We're fucked.

    Who would be a difference maker we could realistically get that would keep LA here? I can't think of a name. Therefore, I think he's gone. And if he's gone, why would we burden ourselves with a big contract that wouldn't be part of our future?

    Asik can keep LA here. Dalembert likely won't make him happy.

    Pek or Asik are the only big names left that can really get us to the next level at the center position. If we strike out on both, LA is gone by the trade deadline.
