    Now that LeBron's [likely] coming West, why not?

    I'm kidding! ;)

    Lance has struggled outside of Indiana.

    His stats were actually pretty bad last year. I didn't realize that. Seemed like he played well in the playoffs.

    This is a BUYERS market. You are going to see a lot of guys getting far less than they expect.

    Indiana could get 28 million in cap space if they let Al Jefferson walk too...

    PG reunion?

    Had to look up what kind of year he had because he had some moments in the playoffs. Pretty much why CHA got rid of him, he couldn't put the ball in the hole. A non-shooting SG, 28% 3pt shooter, 66% FT shooter. Defense was surprising as well, negative rating there with his offensive production not making up for his defense. Still in Indy he was a spark coming off the bench and a fan favorite.

    He's worth 5M/year just for his entertainment values

    Stephenson should find a way to go to SA.

    I heard they were looking to target Marcus Smart on a podcast.

    But I think more realistically they are trying to open enough cap space to go after and steal Aaron Gordon.

    Fits a position of need going forward and provides youth and athleticism. Fits within the age group of their core.

    Sign him up - would be fun to watch him annoy Durant for 10-15 mins a night

    Oladipo and Smart defensive backcourt would be nasty.
