Feels like a DeAndre trade would be right around the corner to me.

Hopefully its not to the Cavs

I stand by my proposal of Tristan and IT to the Cavs for DJ, with some salary balancers thrown in there due to tax issues.

If this deal goes through for LA, I don't hate IT on the Clips.

IT/Avery/Harris/Gallo/Tristan


On second thought...

combined cost for Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin:

2017-18: $53.3 million
2018-19: $57.3 million
2019-20: $61.3 million
2020-21: $65.5 million (AD $28.8M player option)

and then Griffin has a $39M PO for 2021-22.

this is legitimately terrifying.

Very interesting move. I don’t see that really working in Detroit with so little spacing, but that team’s size and interior presence could cause problems for us. As for LAC, the Griffin deal never made sense to me with no Paul. I kind of like this for LAC all things considered, but who would’ve thought that Griffin in 2018 would only get this type of package?

If there is no protection on the pick, it is a very good deal for LAC.  Getting out from under Griffin's contract is a big move for their new GM.  Next up trade Jordan and Williams and then he needs to work a miracle to get rid of Gallo.
