Miami would be a great place for Butler to be unhappy.

Korver and JR Smith are likely headed to the Lakers to play off the bench and shoot 3's.

I thought that to but didn't think Korver was a free agent

Plan B?

Plan B?

so it'd seem, though i don't think they've given up on Klaw yet...

and looking like Wamu will get his wish with Kyrie leaving ...

I like Bev on the Lakers but more as a bench player. If he is starter then LBJ will basically be a PG and I know he wants to get away from full time PG duties

Wouldn't give Harris the max.....

NBA sources told The News they believe Philadelphia will give Harris the most it can offer him, five years, $190 million, while Dallas is among several teams expected to bid at or below (in the Mavericks’ case) the four-year, $140 million that non-incumbent teams can offer him.

The Lakers were looking at about $24 million in cap space. AD waiving his trade bonus got them to $28 million and Pelinka sent 3 contracts to the Wizards basically for cash, which got them to $32 million.

I get it....but he did not create the $4 million. AD did.

Looks like its down to Kawhi or spread the money out.

TBH I still believe he stays in Toronto

Lakers have a meeting with DLo too

And who says it wasn't Pelinka who didn't ask him to waive it?

Clearly prioritizing the PG position should Kawhi not come to the team.

At least that kinda makes sense

Might be getting released?

Of course he is probably one of the many who asked.....but in the end AD was the one who decides to waive it. are we really crediting Pelinka for a "please......pretty please?"

time to drink, i'm preparing myself to come to of news that Jimmy was in a sign and trade for Millsap and a second.

Harris is a fine player, but as you've said, I'm definitely not giving him a max - maybe somewhere between $20-$23 mil per year is fine. Once Ben Simmons is done with his rookie deal, Philly's not going to be able to put anyone around their "big 3", and it's a poor man's big 3 when one guy is significantly overpaid and is not an all-star (Harris), and other other can't take a jump shot within 10 feet of the basket.

I don't disagree, but ya know someone will give it to him.
