    What other PGs are on the market? Deal makes too much sense

    Gotta go all in on Pascal or OG. They need Ant, I like to think.

    Fuuuck. IIRC, Michael Thomson is who we ultimately got with the draft pick from trading Moses?

    So, a compound fuckup?

    Is there anyone left that we will overpay with the MLE?

    Ant would be perfect in TOR. Scottie Barnes can handle the ball as well at SF. Between the two, and with Ant's outside shooting and athleticism, Ant would be a perfect fit.
    OG would fit perfectly well here as well. Good defender, who won't need as many shots as Ant.

    It makes too much sense for both teams, so it will never happen.

    Dame said it would take Grant and Draymond. I would assume now he wants someone of Draymond's impact. So POR is trying to find it via trade? Because it doesn't look like it is happening in free agency. Is Dame gone if they don't find it?

    simons is not a point guard, even though we tried to convert him, so he could be a nice combo guard, but thats not who you want to run your offense

    If we give a one way player the full MLE, we are dumber than I expected.

    Dame has also said he'd make a terrible GM and wants to stay out of it....Dame isn't going anywhere..book it.

    Why would we give the MLE to one of our own free agents?

    Grants contract overlaps Dames by one year.

    Wholeheartedly disagree. If made the lead ball handler, he will flourish

    Blazers turn their attention to going after Karl Anthony Towns.

    There could be a three team situation where we get back young players (Jaquez, Jovic, Clowney and Whitehead), picks (2 FRPs from Miami) Spencer Dinwiddie and Claxton, the Heat get Dame and the Nets get Herro and Duncan Robinson and hell maybe they even take Nurk.
