could be addition by subtraction, trying to think who wants westbrook at this stage of his career. he's not a big expiring contract anymore, he's i guess a good bench energy guy now?

this seems insane on the surface, but it’s a completely lost franchise paying multiple coaches scores of millions of dollars with no short or medium term hopes of contention and you have to reach the salary floor somehow.

they drafted castle who wants to be a pg, but he's not a pure point. i assume cp3 will start at point and they could always have a wink wink deal to possibly trade him to a title contender at the deadline

If he and Embiid can stay healthy, maybe . . . na, I can't even do it.
Last I heard is that Embiid is still planning on playing in the Olympics, which seems crazy to me but maybe that helps him get in better shape for the season.

yeah lauri seems more like a finishing rather than foundational piece

okc could get him theyd have too many guys tho

okc should absolutely go for it, a sga-dort-jalen-lauri-chet lineup would be a contender

lauri is on a bargain contract ($18M) for one more year and then i presume he's eligible for a huge raise, but not sure if it's the max considering how bird rights only allow a certain percentage increase from year to year

For those in doubt, the Knicks offered Hartenstein the full four-year, $72.5 million deal they could, according to a league source. He elected to test out free agency.
