    I have no clue. My overall point was there are better suitors than the Cs who may be willing to pay more for Dwight's services.

    That indecisiveness wont' help much if we need to bring in Dwight in the Durant meeting at the start of July as Woj says and if he's such a big factor for Durant.
    Dwight must already agree on his contract to participate and so the premium price will already have to be paid.

    Dwight didn't go to the LMA meeting though.

    I expect this summer to be like last summer in some ways.

    We visit Mike Conely first (like how we visited Kyle Lowry)...but (obviously) our big push is for durant.

    yeah just saw it too. Not sure how reliable. Makes sense for the Clips makes no sense for Denver.
    Unless Denver then trades him to Boston for almost all their picks.

    Griffin + useless filler for Gallo + Barton +Harris + Lauvergne + then worst of Den/NY

    And then Griffin to Boston for all their 5 first rounders including all three BKN picks.

    CP3
    Reddick
    Barton
    Gallo

    Thanx cyber! Wondering how serious Doc really is. Probably only he really knows if it's just exploratory or real talks.

    But it could potentially make the Clips a better team. Add serious depth and youth.
    Denver on the other hand should not keep Griffin because he will ask out in about 2 months and he's expiring next year.
    They could use the Boston's treasure chest to complete their rebuild by adding two premier wings in the next three drafts with the BKN picks.

    And then watch after two years Griffin go and sign with the Lakers.:grin:

    Blake Griffin is already a huge pot head... I cannot imagine him in Denver.

    Blake is not staying in such a small market. Plus Denver has Jokic and Nurkic.
    He will be rerouted 100%. [Jokic has serious potential to become a star in the future. But hardly anyone pays much attention which is a shame]

    Probably if this deal happens it will be 3way from the start so Doc will make sure Griffin wont' end up in the western conference. Boston.

    They are obviously doing OK without him... So you have to see what you can get for him. IMO Boston should go after him. Throw in the Nets pick, give them Lee and some other pieces.
