Love it.

That would be huge... depending on what defensive 5 was brought in to round out the roster, that would make the C's contenders in the eastern conference again.

I totally agree. Not much of a difference between Kemba and Kyrie IMO. Kemba is a much better teammate.

All depends of Kemba, though... seems like he is happy and content in Charlotte... can he be wooed away?

Born in NYC, he played college ball at UConn... so he has some experience in the northeast.

Don't know how reliable the source is but if true, you gotta think he'll find his way to the Lakers on a low deal. Warriors should probably poke around him as well given their depth situation

Yep, that's what I posted a couple days ago. Cavs had trade offers for him but they would have to take back salary, which would put them in the luxury. Now that they are waving him I think he signs a small/minimum deal with the Lakers. A bench role

Mavs Plan To Offer Kristaps Porzingis Five-Year Max Deal

The Mavericks will meet with Kristaps Porzingis when free agency opens on June 30, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic, who reports (via Twitter) that the team intends to offer a full maximum-salary contract to its top restricted free agent.

Based on current cap projections, a five-year max deal for Porzingis would work out to just over $158MM.

The Mavericks were always expected to be aggressive with Porzingis in free agency, despite the fact that he missed the entire 2018/19 season due to an ACL tear. Dallas surrendered a handful of assets – including multiple first-round picks – and took on a pair of multiyear contracts in order to acquire Porzingis from the Knicks prior to this year’s trade deadline.

The club’s intent was to build around KP and Luka Doncic, and it looks like that plan remains very much on track. According to Chris Mannix of SI.com (via Twitter), Porzingis has forged a strong connection with Doncic since arriving in Dallas and has enjoyed his experience with team owner Mark Cuban.

While Porzingis hasn’t played since 2017/18, he looked excellent during that season, averaging 22.7 PPG, 6.6 RPG, and 2.4 BPG with a .439/.395/.793 shooting line in 48 games for the Knicks, earning his first All-Star nod.

Not possible.

I was told JR Smith had the most valuable contract in the entire league.

Actually heard they are STILL looking for trades but if they take back too much salary they will just waive and stretch $3.9 over 3 years.

Even without Baynes?

Agree, KW would be a nice signing.
