Free agent forward Treveon Graham has agreed to a two-year deal with the Brooklyn Nets, league sources tell Yahoo Sports. Graham, a 6-foot-5 wing, will have a full guarantee on the first season of new deal. |
Solid end of bench pickup. |
Agreed. Marks is doing a solid job for the Nets. |
He traded the Kuzma pick to us, even though he worked out for them.
Big Fail. |

If we landed Kuz because of him...I say leave the man alone.

With KL being traded, we have 1 roster spot left.
Probably leave it empty?
Really wish we could get a dependable center but the FAs out there aren't exactly doing much for me.
I wouldn't mind David West as a vet if we're going full crazy/intimidating here.

Momo said on radio yesterday that Lakers don't plan to fill the spot yet. |

I'm very interested to see how healthy KL is going to be.
Let him play a few months. If he's completely healthy, and still wants to be a Laker, I can see the Lakers making a play for him. Deng would have to be included for salary matching purposes too.

Well, come December 15, could include Lance/Rondo too which would make around 13.5m.

I just posted the same in the Kawhi thread.
DeRozan blows off the Lakers to be loyal to Toronto and gets dealt to a rebuild in the flatlands a year later....

| Makes sense to keep one roster spot open considering training camp is still 2+ months away. |

Yes. This is a major sigh of relief for me. At least for now, the kids can rest assured they have a chance to play with the Lakers.
KL plays and hopefully shows he's back health-wise. Remember, he needs to show he's a top 5 level player, not just that he's physically capable to play at a much reduced level.
If he shows he's healthy and back to top 5 KL, I don't have as much of an issue trading some premium assets for him, even if he's a FA to be.
What i didn't want to do is trade for him in blind faith not knowing if he's healthy or not.

I am not sure of the exact rules on when Toronto could trade Kawhi again but certainly they traded for him with the intent of playing him huge minutes this season.
So we will get a good look at him healthwise, my guess is Toronto tries to pull an OKC and doesn't trade him at all with the hopes of resigning him. If you lose, then you have cap space.

I love Kuz and he'll always provide more value than most non-lottery picks in most drafts, but he's little more than Jeff Green right now. Calm down.

If you're KL, and you just saw how the Raps traded DRoz, would you honestly trust the Clips FO who did the same thing to Blake Griffin?

I think it's more on boxing and defensive rebounding than post defense. Who will keep gobert capela towns nurkic Adams and cousins of the board? |
McGee/Wagner/Zub.
Plus we have the best rebounding guards IMO in Lonzo/Rondo/Hart. |
I would be very surprised if Zubac was behind Wagner of depth chart. |
Could be right. Wagner's body isn't ready for full time NBA battles but I think he represents a lot more of what the Lakers would like their big men to do on offense than Zub. |
True, he shouldn't be getting time until he's strong enough not to get pushed around by wing players though. |

Does anyone remember a trade where both players traded were as openly unhappy and disgruntled? Especially two high profile guys.
I can't. |

If he decides to sit out in TOR I will see it as a bit fishy. Almost like he is trying to hide something until he can get another deal. |
