On the other hand, we can match, they can walk away and then what?
There is one year left on Nikola Mirotic's contract with Barcelona (approx: $10.3MM). There is a player option for two more years. He shot .533/.413/.848 last year and was the league MVP in 19-20 (the same league that produced Lika Doncic) and is only 30 years old.
Put Trajan on the next plane to Spain and tell him not to come back unless he has Mirotic in tow....make it worth his while.
Doubt he will be back in the NBA. He said he went back to be close to family and raise his child there.
Griff has to make a splash, I wonder who he goes after in FA and with trades. Gonna be an interesting off season
Do you want to know or do you want to be surprised?
@mcnamara247
I’d actually like to know, because if they don’t go through I’ll never know so hit me with it.
If one of the players if OG I’ll be very excited. Wish we could get Jaylen brown tho but probably isn’t happening. Boston always wants a ransom
In a way I want to know who we are trading for, but given his track record, I don’t want to know how much it will cost.
Griff will give you $2 for a Coke that is clearly marked $1.75.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Yep, it's a game of chicken. Plus we tie up their cap space while deciding whether to match or not. There's reasons for both sides to make a deal, which is why you see it happen often even when there's cap space to make an outright signing.
I'm down for spoilers right about now. I'm hella curious so please do tell
I would bet money that we don’t get plan A or maybe even B for that matter. So, if you have intel on plans A, B, and C , then sure, let us know. It still will be a surprise who we actually get.
Something along the lines that Griff is high on Sabonis.
Also interest in Harrison Barnes and Buddy.
A team of:
Lonzo/Bi/Zion/Barnes/Sabonis
Lewis/Didi/NAW/Hart/Marshall
/Hayes/Willy
Is pretty decent

The destination matters for me in the off-season. I leave the journey for the regular season.
Lonzo at point is still eww
A combo of Sabonis/ Brogdon for Bledsoe/Adams and 3 or 4 1st round picks would be a worthy trade.
Acquiring Barnes and/or Hield would be the type of moves bottom feeders make. Barnes is historically mediocre and Hield is basically an overpaid JJ Redick. Sadly, both are still better than Bledsoe and Adams.

He wouldn’t be point guard, that’s Zion. He’d just be an off guard in essence
So if Zion is to be our PG, what do we need?
1. A post scorer/defender/rebounder
2. A wing that can fit the 3 and defend
On the same week of the Zion drama and SVG getting whacked in a back ally Sean Payton gets married in Mexico.
Congratulations to him
Zion can't play point, and dribble to his spots and make a move to score 100% of the time he's on court. It's too taxing
True, but no PG can, but the front office has stated that they view him as the future PG, probably why they want a post presence so Zion can get a break here and there and have someone run the offense thru the post
How would you feel about Billups as HC? And his friend Dumars(In some capacity?)

yal have hit the nail on the head. last year we had 4 PG's on the roster
kira
bledsoe
lonzo
NAW
yet zion or ingram initiated most plays
not knowing where we were going to play these guys before the season started led to a cluster-fu*%ed roster void of forwards and shooters
if zion is going to play pg we dont need anyone out there under 6'5" really. cause then we get no advantage from mismatches
and to think people want to draft D. Mitchell... another PG!
Billups was my first choice last year and he is again this year. He will probably go elsewhere thoughHow would you feel about Billups as HC? And his friend Dumars(In some capacity?)
