so we lost two starters

looks like

gasol/ibaka
siakam
anunoby
powell
lowry

hopefully anunoby can make the jump to a 15/6 player with shut down D

Is it too late for Gasol to change his mind and opt out? 25 million is a lot of money which could be used for other pieces.

Masai ain’t done with us guys next year we have key players on the book and a lot of contracts expiring

Really need OG to make a leap next year and If he can, with Siakim continuing to develop into a star, plus 60 million + in cap space, we’ll be right back in the mix

Toronto
Had Presti been able to strike a deal for George with Toronto -- and Leonard was willing to stay -- George was believed to be willing to join the Raptors, sources said. Presti pursued a package of Russell Westbrook and George to the Raptors -- with the NBA's Most Improved Player, forward Pascal Siakam, as the centerpiece of a broader, asset-crippling deal -- but Ujiri couldn't keep up with the Clippers' willingness to unload unprotected first-round picks into the middle of the next decade, league sources said. Simply, Toronto didn't have the depth of picks it needed to get a deal done -- nor the certainty that getting George would make Leonard stay with the Raptors, sources said.


Woj reporting we tried to trade Siakam for George and that George would’ve been willing to play in Toronto if Kawhi stayed :damn: :mjcry:

Sources: Fear of Lakers dynasty drove Clips' deal
Read somewhere that the Raps would have to give up draft picks up to 2029.

I'm glad they said no to this.

Westbrook making the supermax for the next 3 years, Paul George with his injury history, and then Kawhi's possible degenerative tendon. That's a steep price for three guys with a history of injury and health risks.

Isn’t he redundant with OG there?

Yes he is. OG does everything he does, but better. Don't get it.

But if they want a reclamation project on the bench, I guess he fits. Only cost them the biannual exception.

After sleeping on it we should be ok

Kawhi still hobbling that ish is chronic may have dodged a Brandon Roy type bullet
