DeJounte is now a Pelican.

^You guys are right it seems AD is healthier last year than previous years and I don't watch a lot of LAL games but maybe what stuck with me is his on/off showing after a good game. I believe I read some of these comments in this threads.

That was two years ago. He definitely was better this last season.

[synchro_01]

Dallas are the frontrunners to sign Klay daw. Pano na si DJJ?? They happy with Grimes replacing him?

DJJ essentially priced himself out of Dallas due to his good performance last year.  Mahihirapan sila in matching the offers of other teams.  He only made 2M last year.  For a two way wing, that price was a steal.  Now he is aiming to get a bag.

LeBron James is willing to make a financial sacrifice for an established veteran playmaker or big man like Klay Thompson, James Harden or Jonas Valančiūnas sources told Dave McMenamin.

If the Los Angeles Lakers are unable to entice a player like that, James will seek the max, his agent Rich Paul said.

Give us Jonas please

[synchro_01]

Klay will leave the Warriors

The possible landing spots:

DAL
PHI
ORL
LAL
LAC

Michael Porter Jr. is in the Philippines..?!

Pati si Joakim Noah raw nandito sa Manila.

Yep. Palaboy laboy sa ortigas

[noob]

sana mag iwan ng lahi, ng maganda future ng philippine team..

[synchro_01]

I fully expect Klay or Valenciunas to be a Laker by tomorrow morning.  That is if he is willing to take a pay cut because they can only offer him the MLE which is about 13M.  For them to offer that MLE, LBJ will take a pay cut as well from 50M down to 35M which he said he will provided that they land either of the two players (Harden is another option but he wont take a paycut that huge)

D'Lo will be traded plus 1 other player + picks for another impact player.  Hopefully they land DMD from the Bulls.  Another option is to bring back Kyle Kuzma from the Wiz.

Congrats J.B. BICKERSTAFF..

Harden re-signs for 2yr 70m
CP3 got waived😅

[Wiggum]

KCP has signed a three-year deal with the Magic. He was a key starter and brought a lot of the intangibles to the Nuggets during their championship run. Not sure if Braun or any of their current guards can fill that void.

Harden re-signs for 2yr 70m
CP3 got waived😅

Sinayang lang ng warriors pera nila kay cp3. 30 million kinita nung mokong.
Wala gusto pumatol sa trade🥹

[synchro_01]

Nuggets will replace KCP by trading for Russel Westbrook hahaha...the total opposite of KCP.  RW plays zero defense and shoots bricks all day

Patay ang Nuggets dito

[JeromeA]

Pwede na yan s Lakers vet minimum for cp3 para sa locker room presence and mentoring 😅

[Wiggum]

CP3 heads to San Antonio for a one year, US$11m deal. Surely will help Wemby's development.

Jonas Valanciunas will sign with the Wizards, US$30m for three years.

I think WB will come off the bench to replace Joker as their playmaker. mahirap pag sabayin sila ni Joker, pag pasa kay WB eh madalas bricks nga haha.

CP3 heads to San Antonio for a one year, US$11m deal. Surely will help Wemby's development.

San Antonio will be the new Lob City. although past his prime, I think CP3 is still a better playmaker and leader than what they have in their roster right now.

I don't really read the news, but is this for REAL?

Yup.

Jonas signs with Wiz for 30m 3yrs
Sayang lakers...

[synchro_01]

their primary goal is to dump salary.  klay and CP3's salaries will do the job for them to be under the tax apron.

[Disharmony]

Welcome to Big D, Naji Marshall. I'm going to miss Jones but I'm interested to see how the Knife would look with Lukai's gravity. He's obviously a great defender, better on ball than DJJ. But is his shooting a fluke? Can he attack closeouts better?

[Bravesfan]

Jonas signs with Wiz for 30m 3yrs
Sayang lakers...

Unfortunately, LAL seems to be willing to overpay for Klay Thompson's past performance.

[synchro_01]

Klay wants the number of years to be 3 ( 2 +1 ) and around the 25M range.  Mataas yun for his current production.

[synchro_01]

CP3 heads to San Antonio for a one year, US$11m deal. Surely will help Wemby's development.

This is a huge low risk acquisition for SAS.  CP3 will now put order on the offense of SAS when he is on or off the court.  He will be the extension of Pop.

Watch how Wemby benefits from this.

[Disharmony]

Hindi ko na-gets ano nangyari kay DJJ. They said he was a goner because he's going to be expensive only to sign for a little less than the MLE. Sabi rin he can't negotiate any deals yet due to the 15-day waiting period of switching agents.

Happy for him, though. I don't see him replicating his success sa Clippers but he got paid, so all is good.

[synchro_01]

laki ng pay increase nya...from 2M/1 year to 10M/3 years.

great job DJJ!!!  He partly owes that success to Luka hahahaha
