So CP3 negotiated a CBA that favored a 5-year deal for himself then just walks away from it? _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

Clearly, it's unlikely. But most people thought that Durant wouldn't leave OKC. And they were a lot closer to winning a title than the Clippers are. What if in his heart, he truly desires a shot at a ring more than anything else? If so, you just never know. |

He would probably need a S&T, guaranteeing him his 5 years, because the Spurs dont have enough cap to sign him upright.
They have $93M tied up 12 players and will try to resign FA's Mills / Simmons.

Green would be a nice addition @ $10m flat for 3 more years (3rd is PO) and could replace Young as a 3-D guy |

If the Spurs do not have the money to sign free agents I would be happy to help them out by signing either or both Mills and Simmons.

If he'd be willing to take a significant pay cut I'd love Pau on the team in a mentorship role. There's a ton that Randle and Nance could learn from him. |

Pau has much left on his deal? 1 year? Let's do it. If we can get green too. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

That would work. Give us ammo to attempt shedding Deng and/or Moz. |

Danny Green
Pau Gasol
Paul George
Is that the type of overhaul that will excite fans? |

i'd take pau and parker (i'd assume they'd want to shed him if cp3 wanted to join their team).
That's about $31M coming in.
Option A: Please take either Moz or Deng. They still shed $13-$15M. I wouldn't even need any picks back for this move.
Option B: We give them brewer and black in return, they throw in a first and a second. They save $18M this way. |

depends on who goes out. if you can ship out deng or mozgov for Green/Gasol, you'd have to jump on it.
Gasol is expiring, Green is a good piece, solid defender, good shooter.
and of course you wait till 2018 to sign PG13. |

So if the opportunity is there to trade for PG13.. you rather wait till 2018? |

Chris Bosh to Lakers may be a possibility
Quote: | There have been discussions about Chris Bosh’s departure being termed a “medical retirement,” but that is not definite. And Bosh has by no means ruled out playing again. The Lakers would be a natural possibility; the 33 year old Bosh spends his offseasons in Los Angeles and the Lakers’ general manager, Rob Pelinka, is Bosh’s former agent. |

No Bosh. His competitive drive makes him want to continue to compete. He could but not with Lakers. The Lakers are slowing becoming a very desirable destination for FAs so we should be picky in who we sign. _________________ LeGoat! LeMazing! LeGend! |
