Official offseason of the 2nd best team in the NBA (but only when Paul is injured).

Tired of having to check the long ass season thread.

Current vegas odds on summer of Lebron

  • Los Angeles Lakers -110
  • Philadelphia 76ers +450
  • Cleveland Cavaliers +450
  • Houston Rockets +700
  • Boston Celtics +1000
  • San Antonio Spurs +1000
  • Los Angeles Clippers +2500
  • Miami Heat +3300

In. Predictions:

  • Resign CP3
  • Resign Capela
  • Get a big acquisition not named LeBron James (looking at you, Paul George)

Really curious to see what Morey actually does.

If Lebron doesn't happen... what about this guy?

Quote:

Star forward Kawhi Leonard wants the Spurs to trade him, league sources tell Jabari Young of The San Antonio Express-News (Twitter link). Multiple outlets have confirmed the news, with Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports tweeting that Leonard has "grown uncomfortable" in San Antonio and would like a change.

In, and I could get on board with this.

Don't see the Spurs dealing with us since we are in the same division.

This isn't baseball. Everyone makes the playoffs in basketball.

I am concerned with the Anderson anchor around our necks. Morey might have put us behind the 8 ball this offseason. We might just have to roll with what we had and try to find new cheap role players.

Hope Leonard is traded to the Celtics, Knicks, or Kings

I'm convinced the LA super team is going to happen with the news about Leonard wanting to go there and betting sites putting them as the favorite to land LeBron.

I'm really curious to see what they give up. I feel like they have to keep one of the young guys, but will they be able to? Randle is probably gone for sure. So which one of Ball, Ingram, or Kuzma stays? Or do they all get traded?

My first random guess would be Ball & Ingram then whatever else to make money work. I haven't looked at that.

SA has no leverage. They're going to have to take a deal like that or deal with him sitting out again.

I just can't see SA putting up with the **** show that is the Ball family.

For as much as LeVar loves being the center of attention, can you imagine his reaction to Lonzo being traded from the giant LA media market to the San Antonio market?

Apparently he's touring Kinkaid School. Same school that CP3's kids attend. Also, apparently CP3 's deal is done according to cyberx from clutchfans.

Every year there is a big fish we hear these things and a lot of it is people wanting to be out in front of the story. How much credit do you give to your summer intern really? Or to their source?

Dont know the original source but its a buddy of his that is working at the school this summer. Intern is a good kid and seems "in the know".

I guess there is more posts in the thread that still seem to believe it but the main poster said he contacted a friend that works at the school and it was refuted. But I guess it could be something in confidence.

His son has a basketball tournament here in Houston this weekend. Might have come in a little early to do his due diligence to check out schools/real estate/etc. - not necessarily because he is signing here but just to keep in mind his options

Of course the school is denying it. They're not going to publicly state Lebron was visiting campus. This is to save face on their end.

BilboAg just said he was "introduced to LeBron today". If you don't follow the Texans thread, he works for the Texans. He doesn't make **** up.
