Could be. We'll know within the next few days. Didn't think OKC could afford Horford if Durant signs though

They'd have to move some pieces but could get it done.

Didn't really think their Center spot needed improving though. They were one game away from making the Finals and Adams was quite a big part of their success.

.......and here we go...lol

I would like this signing for them a lot.

Chris Haynes: Portland to meet with Dallas free agent Chandler Parsons in LA on July 1 with Damian Lillard in attendance, sources inform @clevelanddotcom.

That would be an A+ move for the Blazers considering he's still in his prime. Him, along with Lillard and McCollum would be a nice trio.

Horford is a PF/Center.

They just traded their starting PF.

Horford slides to a more natural PF spot. The starting lineup could be Oladipo, Westbrook, Durant, Horford, and Adams. That's really good.

That would be a scary line up!

That is really good. Better than last year, not unbeatable though. Both dubs and Cavs would have a decent shot.

As they prepare to make their pitch to Kevin Durant, the Oklahoma City Thunder have been making calls around the league looking to clear a massive amount of salary-cap space in a move rival executives believe is an effort to go after free agent Al Horford in addition to Durant, multiple sources told ESPN.com. Horford played for Thunder coach Billy Donovan at the University of Florida, where they teamed up to win two national titles, and they remain close. The Thunder have an opening at power forward after trading Serge Ibaka to the Orlando Magic last week.

Lakers have strong interest in Jon Leuer. This summer might not be so bad.

Big that can shoot.....but a role player. Not the big man they need in the starting lineup.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I know this guy is a albatross on Defense.

But, maybe the Lakers should consider trading for Kanter?

Or, better yet, Monroe?

I know you don't want to stunt Randle's growth.

But, trading for Kanter and signing Biyombo would even out both those guys shortcomings.

Fuck you, Mecca!!!!

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

That is really good. Better than last year, not unbeatable though. Both dubs and Cavs would have a decent shot.

They would have to shed Kanter and all their free agents, right?

Maybe the can keep Sabonis.

But, that would deplete the hell out of the roster.

Signs, signs, everywhere a sign.....

They'd have to unload some contracts.

Fuck you, Mecca!!!!

Dude, you want soft-helmet Hibbert back?

The Lakers should skip right down the list and steal Mahinmi.

They need to replace Iblocka.

Kanter for sure, probably Waiters, maybe Morrow.

That's some kind of rock n roll song....I remember that.

 

[tlance]

Kanter for sure, probably Waiters, maybe Morrow.

Leaves them in a similar position as last year. Likely 8 man rotation in the playoffs, but I am not sure the pieces fit as well as they did before. Also , Sabonis will have to step up.

We don't have much to trade for Kantner and not a fan of Biyombo at the price he'll want.

By most accounts.....he's NBA ready.
