I really hope Kawhi doesn't go to the goddamn Lakers. Please let him stay in the 6.

Michael Jordan just looking Terry Rozier up on basketball reference, seeing that 38% from the floor shooting and having flashbacks to his Finals run against Seattle, before sliding a briefcase full of money across a table.
I’d pay Lopez 18m a year no problem! Think we could pull hi. For another 5m a year!?!?
Sources: Cheick Diallo has gotten some interest from Houston, Miami, and Orlando. He's expected to take some calls.
— Shamit Dua (@FearTheBrown) June 30, 2019
Diallo's gonna go get paid lol
Source close to Horford says that even after all the Celtics' cap gymnastics, he will not be winding up back in Boston.

Bulpett's usually pretty good on Celtics related issues, so I'd take this fairly seriously.
Once free agency opens at 6 PM, All-Star Khris Middleton plans to return to the Milwaukee Bucks on a five-year, $178M contract, league sources tell ESPN. The deal is expected to include a player option on final year.
— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) June 30, 2019
Boom!
So the Bucks retain Lopez and Middleton. Now to see about Brogdon.
On year ahead of Jaxson Hayes, unless they want Jourdan to mentor him ...

Im still more interested in The Pacers' Center options...
Why do I feel like we’re going to get Harris! I think it’s goong to come out of left field.
Calm down

If we can’t get one of the top 7-8 guys in the big man categories, we may have to combine two bigs lol. One that can space the floor with the other a beast rebounder lol.
middleton staying with bucks
If you want the perfect mentor with the perfect skillset that's a high quality fit, then you're going to have to pay. It's just what it is. Horford is a commodity: all it takes is one stupid offer from one other team and his lower limit is set.
If Griff makes the deal, I might wish it was cheaper, but I'll take it. Even if we grimace at the price in three years, the two leading up to it will be sweet.
Once free agency opens at 6 PM ET, center Jonas Valanciunas is expected to commit to a three-year, $45M contract to return to the Memphis Grizzlies, league sources tell ESPN.

No chance there will be a worse deal than this one https://t.co/9MNRJ7wOIE

If Kawhi Leonard signs with Lakers, AD will not even be LBJ's 'Robin'. He will be more like James' "Alfred Pennyworth".
"You rang, sir"
Reporting with @ShamsCharania: The Utah Jazz are emerging as a significant threat to sign Bojan Bogdanovic away from the Indiana Pacers, League Sources tell The Athletic....The Jazz could have a competitive offer on the table as soon as tomorrow, according to sources

Al Horford Won't Re-Sign With Celtics Despite New Cap Positioning https://t.co/WTXc8xM2uN
— RealGM (@RealGM) June 30, 2019
I might be behind. Sorry, playing a game.:P
I really don't see how Horford is gonna reset the market 5s with 3 of top 5 FA settle for 25 million or less with them hitting their prime.
I think Horford agent putting out a lot of smoke because they aren't getting any deals that they want. He would of already agreed to this mysterious $100 million contract already...
HahahahahahHa https://t.co/DUepQJr8Y2
— Shamit Dua (@FearTheBrown) June 30, 2019
At this pace we may surpass the Davis trade thread & Fire Monty thread.
The one problem is what big man will want to come here when we drafted two bigs in the top 10 of the draft. That why I like Horford cause he knows he would start for his whole contract unless he falls off big time. The lower tier guys like a Dedmon might be worried that they won’t be starting for more than a season with Jaxson Hayes waiting in the wings.
Damn Brook Lopez signed back with the Bucks!! Man another one bites the dust!!
We better just fork out the money for Horford cause if not we gonna end up with Frank Kaminisky or something comparable
Damn I like Jonas V at $15 million a season for 3 years!! Come on guys wait to take a few calls at least lol
Calm down
I think there's a lot of benefit in letting the market play out. Pels have absolutely zero need to rush. There will be teams who need dumps and players who strike out.
— Shamit Dua (@FearTheBrown) June 30, 2019
Brook for 4 years at 52 million!! Man I would of gave him 4 years 60 million
Another reason to wait the market out. If there's any possiblity to nab Richardson from Miami, you take it and run. https://t.co/ejbhvJjKag

Houston big losers
Not that this is a surprise - or means anything - but Jimmy Butler is expected to tell Miami officials tonight that he wishes to play for the Heat, per source.
— Tim Reynolds (@ByTimReynolds) June 30, 2019
I love Hayes, but we need a shooter from the big man spot and we currently don’t have it. Brook Lopez would of been perfect, but oh well. Smart to stay in Milwaukee cause they look to be a top team in the east and they give him the green light from 3 at all times.
I’ll take Kaminsky, Payton, & Danny Green instead of Horford. Then hopefully ship out Moore by midseason or now.
C: Okafor, Hayes, Wood
PF: Zion, Kaminsky
SF: Ingram, Green
SG: Jrue, Hart, NAW
PG: Ball, Payton, Jackson
I hope we can get two really good 3 point shooters, one a big & one a small forward). I don’t need a point guard, but I’ll take one lol
I’m hoping we see NAW as a combo guard that will play a lot of point this year if he’s ready.
