LaMarcus Aldridge

You know what would be awesome? Is if OPJ and LMA hit the market at the same time as a diversion for competitors.

I guess they could give up Leonard and Olynyk. Leonard has another year left on his deal. I don’t believe the Heat have many draft assets, so SAS would have to be willing to eat the second year of Leonard’s salary for a couple second rounders.

I’d rather have Olynyk... the other year on Meyers deal is a team option... just gonna guess that ain’t getting picked up

In that case, this could be possible. SA could get a couple seconds out of it, plus a serviceable Olynyk, and just waive Leonard.

Think it gets SA some breathing room under the tax... I’d do it straight up. I like KO.

One of the most overrated players of his/this era.

He can come in as a buyout. Otherwise, HELL ****ing no.

On a minimum after a buy out maybe, but I can think of better players to sign

I can only think this would be positive if LMA coming to the best team in the NBA would motivate him to push himself to help the team win a championship. But he went to SA in a move they felt would possibly keep them in title contention and he went completely limp. There are probably dozens of players who would have done more with that opportunity than LMA did. SA is completely out of contender status and LMA is a HUGE reason why, imho.

We don't need that here. For free is too expensive.

Rumor is the Heat are interested. I think he's a good fit there.

I'm not sure he's anti-Semitic enough to fit in there. . .

I thought the rumor was he was getting bought out? Why would we trade for his washed ***?

We wouldn't/shouldn't. They're trying to find a trade first and if there's no trade, they'll do a buyout. The Miami Heat deal (which we completely made up) looks like a pretty good deal, if Miami is indeed interested in LMA.

We’ve got something special in the chemistry department right now! Bogey and other starters should be untouchable IMO. I’d love to make a play for either PJ Tucker, Eric Gordon or George Hill but not worth the cost of messing with chemistry. So for me it’s only buy out market, or diamonds in the rough we could get for end of bench and 2nd round pick- someone like Rodions Kurucs

PJ intrigues me, as does RHJ. i think our backcourt is fine for now though, otherwise i'm on board.
