    Yeah youre probably right. I would look at in terms of if he is an actual target for the team and he came it would only be a bonus. Sure seems to be a need in my opinion though.

    I think the Lakers match any offer you make to Reaves but I think you make him that big offer just to force their hand.

    Brooklyn is less likely to match a similar offer to Cam Johnson. Their cap situation is terrible with Simmons contract this year and next.
    Matching most offers for Johnson makes them a taxpaying team ..... that's probably under .500.

    They have Grant Williams and Cam Johnson in pole position of those SFs and I think Cam has even more suitors.

    Peww I remember when we traded for Harden from the Thunder with 7 days before the season opener and a contract was negotiated. In a
    blazing rainstorm and a power outage. Hungry bears everywhere.

    Young whipper snappers today have no heart for these kind of things.

    We have $60M in cap space and not a single clear target to spend it on. This offseason will be fun.

    Minimum $45m to spend to satisfy the 90% for cap floor. Up to $60 ish ($64? m)

    Don’t lie, I never once said I wanted any of them.

    Harden is done man. He’s a fading role player who can have the occasional flashback game. But he’s 34. Let’s leave that book closed.

    You would have a lot less cap space if you signed Nix to a good contract. Just saying

    FVV couldn’t even get his own team of Saikem, OG, and Barnes to the playoffs

    So you stop it

    Why don’t you add Dewinndie 18mil expiring to that list
