Clearly they didn’t feel that much urgency to sign him (or how much they want to avoid the tax). That was never going to get it done.
The team's core was going to be Fred, OG, Siakam. That's why Fred got the bag and was priority #1. Those are the 3 guys Giannis would join for a long championship window with them all hitting their primes. And yes, that would be a damn good top 4 and absolutely a contender. And everything fitting around that is role players. They're going to be interchangeable. That's been the plan, signing Fred nailed down that plan, they're moving forward.
Would have been nice to have Ibaka or Gasol on a 1 year deal but it is what it is. Never was known if either of those guys would even want a 1 year deal. They're both over 30 and off to current contenders. Not that surprising."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

The news beat me to it but I was going to suggest this was the way it goes. I kind of see it as similar to when we were looking for a coach after Casey. People threw around "established" names like Bud but what established head coach was going to sign up for likely one year of Kawhi and then a rebuild. Those are totally different strengths. For this, whoever we are signing, they are going to be gone when Masai goes big game fishing next summer. So we would need someone who wants to prove their value for a year, not someone like Gasol. I wish the best to all our old bigs but...Go Nuggets
