    Not sure if you've seen this or not but here's a really cool page where you can workout all of the cap scenarios. Even sign players and make trades. It figures the entire cap scenario for you. Great page.

    Exactly, by now everybody on this wonderful forum should know Morey always have a card hidden somewhere in his sleeves. Houdini will work his magic, that's a fact.

    Bro... even current Spurs are talking about him in the past sense. If he isn’t dealt to the Lakers this summer, it will be by the trade deadline. The Spurs just want to get everything they can.

    LeBron has done everything but move into the assistant GM’s office at the Staples Center. He and the Lakers are leaking that James will go to the Lakers without anyone else if necessary, all to sabotage the Spurs leverage.

    It is over, Leonard isn’t changing his mind and at this point you should want him gone. He disrespected the Spurs and they need to rebuild anyway. Go get as much as you can from the Lakers and move on.

    Kawhi's all but gone man.

    Much love. Hope you're doing well.

    Unless LeBron is suddenly willing to play for the MLE (he's not), he won't be in Houston. Priority #1 is CP3. Priority #2 is hoping nobody maxes out their CC. Time to move off the big names and focus on adding role players that fit in with our strengths. No PG, no DC, no JB, no KL, or the other KL. If RA is moved, expect equally bad contracts in return, but players that might fit in a bit more. No dumps with assets attached. He has his faults, but the Rockets were at their best when he was on top of his game. EG is safe. DC probably going east with an old teammate. It's shaping up to be a good market to snag some quality vets for cheap. Hopefully LBJ and GSW don't get the first shot. We can beat the Warriors with this same team. No need to blow it up, but the West might be even more brutal next year. SA wants the farm for KL, so he's probably staying for now. Other KL is likely westbound if LBJ bails. PG choosing between LA/OKC doesn't hurt us either way IMO. JB/KT aren't going anywhere, that was silly. SL might finally make an NBA debut, missing piece or trade bait? I love the first week of July, so much unpredictability. Enjoy everyone.[/QUOTE]


    What about DJ if we lose CC. Any word on DL since he's unhappy in Portland. I heard rumors about the Raptors breaking up the Ibaka and Jonas experiment. So will Morey go after Serge if that were to happen.

    Any word on Denver parting ways with Faried?

    He fits the equally bad contract/better fit description

    I still don't believe it until the fat lady sings. There has got to be more to it. It's too uncharacteristic of Kawhi to do all this. I'll be one of the last believers that Kawhi will stay a Spur for life.

    I doubt the Spurs deal with the lakers. Why would they make it easy for LAL to get all the pieces for their own super team. And how hypocritical of the media saying if Lebron join us it would be the end of the nba. But Lebron gp13 and Kawhi on the same team wouldn’t be. Imo it would be harder for those three than if one of those 3 joined us. Plus idk if Kawhi can be trusted the way he handle the spurs situation (supposedly).

    I feel that the spurs will trade with the Celtics or 76s before the lakers. And I think those two teams have better picks than LA. I don’t know. If Lebron does join the lakers which it seems more likely now. I hope it is a total failure ;p. Hehe well if Lebron joins the lakers he probably won’t reach the finals.

    Kawhi is gone. Latest is Spurs is asking more from Lakers. Lakers offer is them getting Kawhi. Spurs view it as them getting Kawhi and LeBron, so they want more.

    LeBron James disrespecting teammates, Coaches, Front Office. Only the Cavs can be his little B. At least Kawhi has common sense not to play with LeBron.

    Yes SL is Sergio Lull.

    Cousins thing makes sense now since they traded Gortat. I don’t think Washington has cap space, are they gonna trade Beal or Porter for him?
