    Yeah will definitely be interesting to see what their next move is. Randle isn't gonna command toooo much next year so he's still a good asset with decent value.

    Such a Dwight way for this to happen.

    Bet he doesn't last in Charlotte more than a year or so.

    Apparently Lakers wanted to trade #2 to the Kings for #5 and #10 and then ship one of those +27/28 & a player in a deal for George. Kings said no.

    Lakers getting too desperate to get a guy who's coming next year anyways.

    They better have a really good plan, like a George+Bron type plan.

    Those d--- Deng and Moz contracts, feel like the Moz deal is a huge reason why this trade happened in the first place.

    No doubt that at least one of Blake/Chris Paul is gone.

    Cavs might as well go all out for this next season try to get one more ring cuz they're gonna be one of the worst teams in the league again once Bron and Kyrie leave.

    I don't blame Butler for essentially telling the Cavs to f--- off, because he doesn't want to be the only one left there after next season. Bulls should still trade him or they'll end up getting what the Pacers end up getting for Paul George, or worse what OKC got for Durant.

    So what are the Celtics gonna do... I keep reading that Jackson doesn't want to meet or work out with the team. I've been looking at reports and scouts and Tatum seems dope...

    I have reservations about taking Duke players because they never really evolve into anything grand... they are soft or Offense heavy with no Defense....

    But what do you think... what the next move for the Celtics. Any chance we can get Davis away from NOLA?

    Yup Jackson wanted a guarantee at #3. Its probably gonna be Tatum, which I don't really love. He'll be able to score right away, but I don't think he has the ceiling of an All Star. I wouldn't hate moving back to the 4th or 5 spot and getting more assets and then taking Isaac.

    I think the next move is to wait out the end of Lebron's contract in Cleveland, try to sign Hayward or Griffin and then see who is available next summer. Anthony Davis would cost the whole team, so i don't see that happening.

    I've been seeing a lot of Tobias Harris comparisons for him, which is fine, Harris is a good player.... but not who I'd want with #3.

    Tatum is being compared to Paul Pierce... his mid range is crazy and looks good of the pick and roll as a spot shooter.

    His is nice on the glass too. I haven't done any research on Isaac. Would Jackson be a better defender tho?

    Milsap is gonna get shipped too. They are not going to want to let him walk for nothing. If I was Danny I'd get on the horn. He would be a nice vet that has ties to Horford and could help with Rebounding.
