    I get that Bender seems like an Olshey type move but I think at this point it’d be a waste of a spot. I’d rather get players that I know could play. If we were set depth wise I’d be ok with Bender. But we’re really not.

    I’d rather get Jabari Parker. We know he can score if he’s healthy.

    Man for the minimum there are very few players I wouldn’t be ok with.

    Is portland waiting on someone that’s waiting on Kawhi/LA? Is everyone else as well?

    I'm assuming FAs are waiting on Kawhi.

    between the Lakers and the Clippers there's probably 70M in cap-space. If Kawhi goes to one or the other there will be 35M. If he goes to Toronto there will still be that 70M. I'd bet a lot of free agents that may be headed for minimum deals are hoping to get 1 or 2 million more than a minimum by going to a jilted LA team

    I think the NBA has a little Kawhi constipation right now. What's funny is that the moratorium doesn't end till Sunday. Things just happened at warp speed this off-season.

    Man I bet Boogie is gonna have a major chip on his shoulder next year. This free agency humble pie might actually help him as a player next season.

    I imagine it won't take long now and in fact may be a race to get what is left over.

    Would still like Noah.

    Any rumors on JaMycal Green?

    Hope he falls to us @ vet min. He would be the perfect backup PF.

    He’s one of the best FAs left and there are a couple teams with space. I’m guessing he’ll get a nice enough deal from one of them.

    Looks like Dwight Howard is going to be bought out by MEM after being traded. In a limited role, he could be amazing if he'll sign for the min. Of course, I expect him to go ring shopping with the Clips.
