Lakers waited until this summer for Paul George and they don’t even get a meeting. This is why they won’t wait until next summer for Kawhi.
its either that or they try for Cousins and hope he is healed which there is not much of a background of players that have rebounded from that injury. I enjoy other teams beyond them being good just because they are a big market.
Not yet but there is a new suiter.
@ChrisMannixYS The Nuggets know it's a long shot, but Denver's ultra aggressive front office wants a shot at selling James on a Jokic/Murray/Barton teammate trio--even if it's just for one year.
And this cherry bomb from Woj
@wojespn Philadelphia is meeting with LeBron James and his reps today in Los Angeles, league sources tell ESPN.\
@wojespn For today's meeting, Sixers will meet with LeBron James' reps, sources tell ESPN. James will not attend this meeting.

Ariza to the Suns for 1yr-$15 million. Yikes. Maybe to mentor Josh Jackson and Mikal Bridges?
That doesnt seem so crazy for a dude that is a solid nba contributor.
Yeah, that’s true. A one year deal can never really be a bad contract. It just seems strange to me considering they have Bridges and Jackson on the roster that play that position.
Also, I had forgotten that Ariza has already won a championship so may not be chasing one like some vets.
I was leaning towards LeBron going to LA to join Kawhi and George, but now that George isn't coming, I don't think that will be enough to compete with GS.
So now I'm leaning towards LeBron going to the Sixers. That would be a more talented team, and it would be in the East too so he wouldn't have to beat GS just to make the Finals.

This is all true, but it is still an awkward fit with three ball-dominate guys around.
Agree, it's an awkward fit for sure. LeBron would likely have to play off the ball, right? Which I think he can do. Simmons almost has to have the ball in his hands it seems.
