On Lowe's pod from today, Kawakami said that the Warriors collectively said no to adding Dwight Howard to their locker room.

feel like maybe the wiz is the true spiritual home dwight has been seeking all these years

imagining dwight doing his schtick to a completely despondent lockerroom until someone kills him or themselves

could def see this wiz roster in a cultish mass suicide situation
― Clay, Tuesday, 3 July 2018 23:00 (five years ago) link
markieff and wave papi were both in the top ten for techs last year. they added dwight who was #1

The Spurs are reportedly asking for Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, Kyle Kuzma, two first-round picks and two pick swaps in exchange for Kawhi Leonard https://t.co/H1UuRTNDQX pic.twitter.com/GJSkWrNNY4— Silver Screen & Roll (@LakersSBN) July 3, 2018

fair.
― EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 3 July 2018 23:59 (five years ago) link
the alternating picks and pick swaps clearly inspired by ainges fleecing of brooklyn

hah that was my first thought
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:03 (five years ago) link
the wizards have now added austin rivers, jeff green, and dwight. i guess if you're going to just go full heel it's a good group.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:05 (five years ago) link
those guys are more just lame tho lol
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:06 (five years ago) link
otm, i considered and rejected "villain"
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:09 (five years ago) link
jeff green seems like a great dude and good teammate, he's just not assertive enough. austin def a heel tho
― Hall of Fam (Spottie), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:13 (five years ago) link
wonder what wld be the at all reasonable deal that the spurs and lakers cld agree on, ingram kuz a 1st and a swap?
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:17 (five years ago) link
2 1sts maybe
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:18 (five years ago) link
except now kawhi doesnt even want to play w lebron lol
i'd take ingram kuz 2 firsts as the spurs
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:18 (five years ago) link
kawhi not making a great case that hes not a headcase rn
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:19 (five years ago) link
also whos bidding against the lakers we all know the celtics arent gonna give anything near what the spurs are asking
yeah it's all a v weird heel turn
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:20 (five years ago) link
there has to be some factor we just don't know about none of it has made sense from the start
like maybe celtics do kyrie + the lesser of the sac/mem picks
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:21 (five years ago) link
i think kawhi just might be a headcase + has the wrong ppl in his ear
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:22 (five years ago) link
kawhi should get traded to the lakers for a bunch of stuff and then sit out another year in protest of who knows what, that to me would be ideal
― Clay, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:32 (five years ago) link
i support this proposal
― sprout god (lag∞n), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 00:34 (five years ago) link
kawhi should do anything other than hamstring one of the only orgs that can build good non-superteam teams

the best recent self own has to be nerlens noel turning down $70m only to instantly fall out of the mavericks rotation thp

damn that is extremely uncool of boogie
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 4 July 2018 01:10 (five years ago) link
who really knows but assuming that contract offer came during the season then boogie’s agent (or whoever) must’ve decided he could do better in free agency which... during the season ppl still seemed to be talking about the possibility of him getting a big contract so idk but clearly they gambled wrong

pr big roll of the dice when you just shredded your achilles
― Clay, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 02:03 (five years ago) link
if he was really offered 2/40 after the injury that seems like an absolute no-brainer to take. it isn't breaking news that there wasn't a lot of cash and there were a lot of centers this summer.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 02:17 (five years ago) link
yeah there’s not gonna be a single UFA who gets $20m this offseason on any contract longer than 1 year?
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 4 July 2018 02:34 (five years ago) link
if he comes back healthy it’s possible he gets 3/60 or something next offseason and it all kinda works out but it’s also possible he never makes more than 10-12m per year for the rest of his career

there's just an unbelievable number of 1-year contracts out there now. next summer is going to be a mess.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 03:00 (five years ago) link
cp3 was a fake UFA but yeah

wasn't the salary cap supposed to keep exploding up and then it .... didnt do that
― Clay, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 03:04 (five years ago) link
there's a passage from a zach lowe podcast that's burned into my mind where he forcefully argued that all those portland contracts from '16 were good because they would be tradeable as the cap increased. i think about it every time i am looking at free agent stuff. i love zach but that was extremely wrong.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 July 2018 03:13 (five years ago) link
and the funniest part is that the cycle is going to repeat itself next summer even without the cap spike because so many teams are on the same space/no space schedule. i've heard a few arguments for locking in multiyear deals this summer where it makes sense for the team and player but it doesn't seem like anyone is up for that.

many xps
kawhi is perfect for the clippers bc he can still be in la and kinda be lowkey bc lebrakers will suck up all the oxygen
― 21st savagery fox (m bison), Wednesday, 4 July 2018 03:45 (five years ago) link
i wonder if crabbe is going to opt into his $18.5m player option next summer
