2021 NBA Offseason

If there was an aging player...the Lakers were after them

Nah, just former Laker aging players. Other than the trade for Russ, non-former Lakers were kids in comparion.

The one bitter pill was letting Caruso go. His defense and effort will be missed with the second team.

I heard a report he would have took less to play for the Lakers around $7M/year. I figured from the start it was either Caruso or THT and THT is only 20

I read that they valued him at $7M. I think his lower offer was to take a year off the deal, but same annual money.

THT has the higher ceiling for sure; he was never leaving unless required in a blockbuster deal (like Dame, for example).

He looked good because you had guys like Kuzma on the floor to compare him to. I don’t think he will really be missed.

Warriors receive: Simmons and Justin Holiday
Sixers receive: Malcolm Brogdon, Jonathan Kuminga, TJ Warren, a 2026 first-round pick, and a 2028 first-round pick
Pacers receive: James Wiseman, Andrew Wiggins, and Moses Moody

Saw this one, honestly, put all your assets into Simmons is not very smart. If we are talking about Beal, Lillard or another star then ok.

By your comment I take it the 1st rounders come from GS? I guess an argument could be made maybe Simmons more what GS needs (assuming Klay can return...big if)?

Going to the Warriors could definitely be a better fit for him and for the W's but they would be giving up way too much in that deal and yes, I'm assuming those are GS picks

 

[dtgold88]

im just curious like, did they turn down 7? 14? 10 from New Orleans before the trade down?

I doubt they'd have taken 10 from NO. 7 and 14? Probably depends how much they like Kuminga....then again, also possible (very likely even) GS liked him too much to deal that pick and Sexton not exactly what GS needs.

Why don't you like Garland?

Schroder to the Celtics @Wamu ?

If Morey does something like that I hope it’s at the deadline and not before.

If there was a real-life NBA Fantasy Draft, which player would you take with the No. 1 Pick?

Myself.

Because I believe in me.

I'm thinking Giannis. Most of the marquee guys are 30 plus.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Or Luka

 

[Shanemansj13]

Yeah and obviously there would still be a salary cap. Luka would be very tempting, big number kicking in 22-23

Then Homer pick obviously Cade is top 10 if cap is a factor.

Mobley for me lol.
