Sounds like they think the Monk deal is for the minimum. If so that’s one of the better moves we’ve made so far other than the Russ trade.
Dennis Schroeder and his agent watching other PGs sign for less than what the Lakers offered him…
Funny on SCTV to present
So the best FA point guard still on the market could be Reggie Jackson. Not sure whom we would trade DS for at this point who fits into the vast amount of criteria the Schroeder trade seems to need:
-good fit/role/$$ for Dennis (likely will have to come down from one of those 3 in order to avoid signing for the mini MLE or, worse, the vet minimum)
-a player we would want that is under contract
-that said team would be willing to part with in exchange.
Lotta questions/spots to fill, yet.
Aloha Jamie,
Back up PG is a concern. If it comes down to mini mid level Money, Jackson will probably stay put. great friends with George. the only play making PG left is Ish Smith. everyone else are more score first guys. Considering they will stagger Russ and Lebron that would be okay. Kendrick Nunn is an interesting name out there. We could alwayd bring Dennis back on a one year deall if he hasnt completely burned down the bridge. Maybe even THT could back up Russ. i will be shocked at this point if THT is traded. unless they can find a deal that includes Dennis. We can only bring back 5.5 mil in contracts if we trade him. Besides he’s a Klutch client and Lebrons little bro, so I think he sticks.
Me too, just odd that the THT news has been non-existent.
