I could see it.

Russell in a sign and trade and maybe they add Beas for him.

Yep if they want something for him. Players and pick at least

 

[fightinfunbags]

All I did was point out some of your absurd homerism. If you still wanna act like a pissed off teenager by all means continue. Just makes you look even more foolish.

Anybody else want some?

I like KC +1.5. I have a few bets, looking for more.

I don't bet but the last 5 SuperBowls have hit the under.

 

[wildturkey]

Has he even been bought out yet?

Technically no, but its just a formality at this point.

Which LA? Both?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Please, Utah.

Give the man a chance.

It’s what’s best for everyone.

* see Clippers will hope fully move on to George Hill, if he comes available, or Pat Bev.

Russell Westbrook open to playing in Utah

Eric Walden: Jazz GM Justin Zanik in Russell Westbrook: “We are open to the possibilities with him. He probably needs some time. … There haven’t been any decisions made, there haven’t been any poss…

We have a full house on the wing.

Gotta be the Lakers.

Nope.

Might not be anytime soon, if it all.

3 years of Kyrie to the Lakers nonsense.

These people still trying to predict the unpredictable.

He will be a Laker if they offer the biggest bag.

If not, he will go to the highest bidder.

…..and how exactly do you get around the hard cap?

You are being click baited again…lol

Hardcap is 156,983,000…. Can’t exceed it no matter what.

Now, add up Lebron, Kyrie and Davis and see how much is left to fill the roster.

Definitely the Lakers. Boston has a lot of guys not sure he fits. I mean if he goes to CLE he is a low minute guy off the bench.
Best opportunity? LA Lakers

Poop

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Poop

Lebron and AD alone are almost 90 million.

No way in hell he comes to the Lakers, unless for some ridiculous reason he decides taking the MLE is the way to go.

But there's a bigger chance of me shitting gold, than that happens.

I know. I have the under as well.

The power of the bye?

 

[trojanfan12]

Sounds like Russ did the team a huge favor.

I am not convinced the FO includes those picks to get a deal done if Russ was trying to fit in.

I agree. Had he actually tried to fit in, there may have been no reason to include the first round pick they gave up. They may have just needed a couple of minor moves.

If memory serves, I think most of us thought the move had a chance work if Russ actually tried to fit in, but didn't think he would.

According to Hollinger they have enough options to get there cap wise

So KD asked to be traded to Phoenix but told them he would play out the year if it couldn’t be made to happen. They agreed to keep it quiet and boom, it got done. Professionals doing business.
