I just hope he doesn't panic if Paul George and LeBron aren't actual options.

What does panic look like? For example, if he can’t get LeBron, PG or Leonard is signing Tyreke to a multi-year deal panic? Will Barton to a big, multi-year deal probably is panic. Is Avery Bradley, too? I honestly don’t know. Just curious what others think.

Barton is really quite good though so I'm ok with him on a 3 year deal though board would pan it. Bradley is the dicier one because its probably more $ and he has the health concerns. Though it's not like that deal couldn't work out as we've seen Bradley be very good, just more risk

We desparately need another ball handler. A good offense has two out there at all times. Celtics were able to get around our defense because jaylen, Tatum, smart and rozier can all dribble and create. We ended up with so many turnovers because no one could dribble and we had to make easy to read loft passes that turned into ugly turnovers. Fultz will help but we still need another playmaker. The team is really good and one or two pieces off and I’m not sure that you need a megastar to put the Sixers in the finals

Robert Covington said he liked his playoff performance overall.

JJ, Ilyasova and Marco all said the same thing.

I think a Lowry trade would be the panic move.

It's whale season. Can't snag some Trout(!) and think that's enough.

Also should monitor Portlands situation with Dame/McCollum. That's another non awful fallback option

Celtics liked it too

that one pullup contested 3 pointer from 5' behind the line with like 17 on the shot clock and no one underneath, and then drawing the foul trying to get the rebound was pretty sure his playoffs in a nutshell

I'm pretty sure Covington and Dario to a lesser extent launch those quick 3s because the coaches want them to.

He's gotta make them at a higher rate than he did in the playoffs, clearly.

After the GOAT, McCollum would be option #1 for me. (see avatar)

Even without my bias, he fits exactly what Simmons needs in another guard. I can't imagine Portland would trade him.

They have tax issues. Having some combination of Covington/Dario/Fultz/#10 locked into cheap deals filling out their rotation could save a lot of coin while the team not being that much worse off if at all.

Of course, we may run into similar issues if we trade some of those guys for a guy already making $25 million a year and not getting cheaper.

Cov/Dario/Fultz/#10 is too much to pay for Kawhi, and way too much for CJ. Kawhi is on a one-year deal, and CJ makes so much money he's devalued. What do you think are realistic deals for those guys? Would you only trade for Kawhi if he were willing to sign long term? What's appropriate value for CJ?

Just meant the material pieces would come from that list. Agreed it's too much. I think one of those guys and 10 is fair for CJ, Kawhi would be 2 of them and 10. Of course it depends on what other teams are offering.
