    Whats the max salary before the hard cap we got left?

    Dfs is a straight sign thru the nt-mle
    Capela can be acquired via SnT using cam.

    Get we also get NAW or k3nnard using jock/2nd?

    I like the idea of having some form of above average rim protection out there for 48 minutes. Either with alpi or having Capela function as a rim runner with the athletic second unit.

    Bigger deal incoming. The KD deal signals that Fertitta/Stone are going all in this season.

    I mean he did win a championship...

    But I agree, I feel like the team we have now is a contender and its younger.

    I will say, Giannis is a lot younger, in his prime, so I'd get it but man....I don't know.

    I guess it just depends on what is given up...

    Interesting acquisition

    he's not a 3rd string C either

    and even if he was, a 3rd string C should be on a vet min, not on a 3/21 deal so Idk why this would be where we choose to spend that money

    This is a really unusual deal but I guess we're not confident that Adams will stay healthy and want to make sure we have the depth if he goes down?

    I'm not going to leap to assuming we're getting Giannis yet just based on this
