Just saw that. Not a bad gamble by the Bulls. They have the space this year.

Jabari to the Bulls is a bit of a relief to me. I'm sure I'm in the minority but I'm more afraid of the Bucks than the Sixers and if Parker ever got healthy and rounded back into form they'd have been dangerous.

Odd trade for Toronto unless they just wanted out of DeRozen's contract. S.A. should win a bunch of regular season games.

I mean they probably weren't going to beat the Celtics so at least they're trying something. But this could be a lot to give up for a one year rental.

I like the gamble. The status quo wasn't getting them anywhere in the playoffs.

Or Siakam. They really didn't give up that much.

They didn't. On the other hand, the Spurs were able to get an all-star back so that's not too bad considered their lack of leverage.

Yeah, the Spurs are definitely going even more old school with their lineups. Have to respect that.

What's the chance of Leonard actually resigning with the Raptors?

5%, 10%?

I'd say 15 percent. He hasn't said anything, only his "people".

If PG resigned in OKC there is a chance I guess but Toronto also lacks a Russell Westbrook type personality to son Kawhi into staying.

A lot can happen in a year. Kudos to the Lakers for holding tight and not giving up all their young players.
