    Every stars want legacy, nobody wants money.
    No stars sign 40 million/year supermax contract this summer.

    Kawhi wants legacy by leaving Spurs.
    Durant wants legacy by leaving GS and hope to win 3 rings with Nets?


    Chris Paul wants money, not legacy last year.

    I would love to get Myles Turner, but makes no sense for Pacers to trade him. Turner is a Capela than can shoot threes.

    If there was some way to trade: Capela, Tucker, Gordon, filler, more picks
    And receive: Turner, Kevin Love, Covington

    I'd be down

    b'bholic's law of rocket dynamics - the chance of making a correct prognostication is indirectly proportional to the number of player names added to the possibility of a positive outcome.

    corollary - modify list as necessary to increase probability of b'bholic's law of rockets dynamics

    Add everyone to the list and you can't possibly be wrong.

    That's not fair though because Adams plays in a system where might have gotten benched if he got too many of Westbrook's rebounds.

    I beg to differ, Capela's 23 rebounds on xmas was pretty damn dominant.

    1) New jerseys=more sales=profit
    2) Luxury tax avoidance=money saved=profit

    Two stars.

    So, in light of the news yesterday and now the sudden realization that #TwoChoppers talks out of both sides of his mouth and isn't quite so convinced that we should go into the luxury tax I'm going to add some more names and i may remove some from this list.

    Nothing has changed in the calculus however. We still need a center that will shoot up the 3-ball at a deadly rate. And we still need a 3/4/5 wing that can defend and shoot and is long and strong enough to defend 5's.

    Smart
    Winslow
    Otto
    Love
    Zeller
    MKG
    Bogdanovic
    Robert Covington
    Myles Turner
    Adams (possible flip or keep)
    Jaylen Brown (I can see the possibility of Capela for Jaylen straight up with Ainge throwing in filler)
    Kyle Anderson/Bruno
    Og/Powell

    I like how 2 PRIMARY STARS became plain vanilla 2 GUYS.

    Like it takes any genius to know that Morey and Rockets are always going to add some guys
