    Nah, it would be a team like Orlando.

    Orlando: Lonzo Ball, Luol Deng

    LA: DJ Augustin (7.25m per season till 2020), Shelvin Mack (expiring 2019), and Terrence Ross (expiring 2019)

    2019 free agency rolls around and they are after Klay and Kemba.

    I've never been so close to paying @SlyPokerDog 50$ to ban someone on this site before.
    Got my bank card and everything right next to me.

    I hear you. Just trying to suss out the tolerance for such an idea. Clearly, it's very low.

    I still like the idea of taking on Deng's salary for a bunch of picks but it became much harder to do now that the trade deadline has passed.

    Man - he looks old these days. It hasn't been that long since he's been in Portland, has it?

    Yeah but they keep Harkless who is $10M of dead money if you go after LeBron and George as he won't even get 10 mpg with them plus Kuzma and Ingram around.

    They might be able to find someone who will take Ball and Deng and won't send back any long term deals like they did with Russell and Mozgov.

    Lottery odds need to be based off number of losses compared to other teams, not positioning. And then draw for the top 5.

    Oh, and after the ASB, losses against lottery team counts AGAINST you, and wins against lottery teams counts FOR you.

    I always think about it but things like this just seem to always have a place. Around the NBA seems to be as good as any. IDK?

    That’s where I think they’re all gonna go.

    Europe or China.

    I would think not back to China. Don't think they can actually go there again?

    Lonzo has (at least) a 3 year guaranteed contract. He isn't going overseas anytime soon.

    Lonzo being the first played traded to Europe would be hilarious if it were possible
