I've been in off-season mode since pre-season. Hell of a year.

Atlanta will get the top two picks in the lottery and take Zion and Ja.

Then they'll trade Zion, Ja and John Collins to the Pels for Anthony Davis, and everyone will be happy.

Except for LeBron... he won't be happy. So the Lakers will trade their pick and Brandon Ingram to the Heat for Hassan Whiteside and sign Jabari Parker and Terry Rozier to lucrative long term deals. Derek Fisher will later be installed as head coach and run triangles. Matt Barnes will also be hired as an assistant coach and Head of Workplace Tranquility.

Kevin Durant - NYC or GSW (probably 70/30 NYC if we lose, 50/50 if we win)
DeMarcus Cousins - LAL, but really could be any team willing to take a punt
Kawhi Leonard - LAC
Kyrie Irving - Not really sure. Seems crazy to leave Boston, but seems likely.
Klay Thompson - GSW - out of all the free agents this is probably the most certain
Tobias Harris - 76ers
Kris Middleton - Bucks - or maybe this one is the most certain
Jimmy Butler - Knicks would be fun.
Kemba Walker - Hornets

 

[fidstar]

Maybe we can get Leonard for vet min.

At what point does Kemba say to the Hornet's office 'here's the deal, get me a team worthy of my excellence or I'm outta here'

Kyrie and Durant to New York lol. Let it happen and see how great they really are. Gonna be plenty of thin skin and drama that's for sure.I feel this board will pick up a bit with the knicks being relevant. Hopefully it happens it will be nothing but entertaining.

Jerry West and the Clippers will probably do something significant you'd think.

Yesterday Dallas had a 37% chance of keeping their pick. Today it is only 20%.

[fidstar]

Divac hadn't ****ed up anything lately so he was trying to fix that.

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Oh my goodness. The Kings are ruining themselves from within!
