Boredom does weird things to people.
I'm going to predict that we don't make a big move for Kawhi. Regardless of whether or not it is the "right" move, I think that Dan and Koby are going to be too risk averse to trade a ton of assets for a guy who may only be here for one season.
It might have been different in prior years, but after Kyrie forced his way out, and is now even hinting that he might not re-sign with Boston, I just see them both -- Dan especially -- being very gun-shy about the possibility of getting mega-screwed long term by a player who decides to be one and done.
You mean we’re not going to get kawhi? Bold prediction.
I agree. I like Dedmon and would also be interested in Bazemore who they state is a good leader in the locker room not to mention he is a good defender. ATL looking to take on some contracts (with comp)...boy do we have some.View: https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1009605883511410691
I know people wanted to trade for Dedmon to round out our rotation. I'm not sure what contracts Atlanta might want to dump but I bet we can get Dedmon for a bad contract.

You think the Howard trade is to drop money in 2019 to do this trade. Maybe we can save our pick.

If it makes sense a little of both. They love his overall leadership and are not "actively" shopping him but they have made him available. I think he contract is a bit steep for his overall scoring production, but Atlanta is such a poor team and I love his defense.Do the Hawks see Bazemore as a player with value or do they think he is on a bad contract? 12 points a game is definitely under performing for a 19 million dollar contract.
I'm calling a pick swap if they see SGA is still there at 11.
#8 + Hill + JR + Cedi for Kemba, Batum, #11
IMO Kemba & SGA could play next to each other giving us 2 more playmakers in the starting lineup.
