Would prefer Millsap for defensive reasons but Alridge on minimum would do

And they being too greedy about Lauri....either take a late 1st or take an expiring or decent rotational big....you ain't getting the full boat

They are kinda overplaying their hand a bit

I thought aldridge was retired?

People are underrating Lavine. He's gonna score on Zion efficiency with that much less attention on him.

People are also not seeing that Derozan is a top 3 mid range/post player, and will be surrounded by Zach/Vuc/Lonzo and hopefully Pat will join them as snipers. He's a good passer. Vucevic will kill teams if they leave him open.

I think Lavine and Derozan will step their defense up enough for the overall team defense to be average. That combined with a top 5 offense will be hard to beat.

Nets- obvious favorite if healthy but we can hang with them on offense.

Bucks-idk who stops Giannis

76ers- shambles

No other teams worth mentioning

I think we'll be the most entertaining team in the league.

He is considering coming back

Sixers arent in shambles. They need to figure out the Ben sitch but they still have a MVP caliber player in Embiid

Miami will be in the mix, not a true contender but a 48 win caliber squad

Hawks are going to be really good for a while, last year wasnt a fluke

Pacers could be tough if everyone is healthy(big if)

Hornets have no front court but they are solid too

Knicks is a Thibs squad so they are gonna play hard err night

The East isnt gonna be a cakewalk

I love that AK is holding Lauri hostage.

Didn't we offer that fool 16 mil per and he declined because he wanted 20?

Okay, ho, go get it on the open market. Oh, you can't? - well shyt, you either coming off the bench for us or we gonna get some picks to replenish what we gave up to make us relevant again. Hold them cards. GarPax would've folded already, and that's the difference. We going big or take your ass home.

Garpax would have paid him 20 mill

But this also why I said there is a possibility he will be here for the next season. I dont like that because I think we should get something for him rather than lose him nothing but at this point it's clear nobody is budging from their position and lauri is in a place where if he wants to make any kind of money now he needs AK cooperation.
