Clarkson was really bad last year. Would not be particularly happy with that one

Brings flexability and we B better than the Lakers.

If he wanted to come for the TMLE (~$5.5M) yes we could.

Wonder how bad his reputation is with NBA front offices -- if he is basically a don't touch at all player.

I've always loved the size, skill but hard to argue that teams seem to fall out of lover QUICKLY with this guy.

Would he be happy watching ALL of our guys tossing shots up while he has to cover for Kat/Jalen -- not sure this is the guy but I guess I'd be excited if we could get him cheap.

There’s like 16 teams with full non taxpayer MLE of $12 million. I doubt we have a shot at Westbrook or Ayton unless they give us a huge discount to ring hunt.

Westbrook it might make sense for him as next season might be his last and we may be his only shot at crowning his career with a championship

Smoke?

So on TV this AM they are saying this is first time in 20 year career that Lebron opted in without an extension.

He has though almost always threatened to leave every summer in order to put pressure on his team to improve.

I do wonder if Lakers didn't offer him an extension (or at least one he liked) and now he is pissed and trying to get out.

One angle that is interesting. If he wanted out - why not just opt out and become a F.A.?

Not sure on this but if he were a F.A. many teams would be capped out and unable to offer him big $ so maybe in this case he is getting his +$50M and will force LA to move him. And if he were a F.A. some teams may be restricted from pursuing a sign/trade.

Also because it's off season Lebron despite being a $50M player (+$14M) - he can still go to ANY team - no restrictions on teams that otherwise can't pursue guys making over the $14.1M MLE.

No idea at all what's going on but would assume Lebron stays in LA.

Don’t be shocked if LeBron ends up owning like a 1% piece of the lakers with a new ownership group after he retires. Silver badly wants him to stay with the lakers.

I would throw Aaron Wiggins in that mix as well. But Detroit's shooting is questionable, and that's before you factor in the Beasley mess. I think they definitely overpay for Robinson.
