So here's the Laker situation. That Windy tweet is about LeBron not eating up the entire gap between the first and second apron
How can we help the Lakers: If I'm reading that right, we have $16 million before we hit the first apron. I think, and I might be wrong, but I think we could do Grant for DLO/Vincent/Knecht/2029 FRP and then send them our MLE TPE for Vanderbilt, which would free up $10 million.
That puts Portland into the tax... not going to happen. After Clingan is signed, Portland has ~$4M to work with
I think there's a scenario that Simons goes to Orlando for a little bit of their cap space/picks/filler.
Russell to the Warriors - $18 million Klay/Grant to the Lakers - $59 million? I don't know what Klay thinks he's worth. Rui/Vincent/Knecht/FRP to Blazers - $28 million I think the Lakers could stay under the apron if they can send $18 million to GS and then maybe give Klay $28 million per year? That leaves $30+ million for LeBron.
send Laker fans warm and fuzzy messages about choosing Bronny was the right pick over his USC teammate that averaged 17ppg.
fans are supposed to blame the new CBA. Because, you know, the In-Season Tournament is a bigger prize then the World Championship.
