    So……we end up with two very talented but injury prone head cases………? Thanks but no thanks.

    I'm not sure if you have followed Chris Paul's career very closely, but that dude is 100% an injury prone head case. He's a very talented injury prone head case, but still an injury prone headcase none the less.

    If we want to keep Dame and make a move for a title, we have to roll the dice.

    In a S&T, we would become hardcapped at around 139 million. If Kawhi starts at ~39, and we have Dame at 43, and assuming Powell at 20, we're only 37 million below that hard cap. Nurk and Covington make us 12 million below. So our starting 5 is at 127 million, Dame/Powell/Kawhi/RoCo/Nurk. But we need to fill 9 slots with 12 million dollars. Not gonna happen.
