2018 Buyouts? Who's going where?

[Jclaw]

We've got a few threads that touch on this but maybe it will help to have a dedicated one (for targets not named Air Canada). There have been many names thrown out. Vince, Joe, Marco, Ersan etc. Monroe has already been bought out and snatched up. The deadline for being bought out is less than 3 weeks away. Who do you want? Who do we not want our competitors getting? Let the other (and relatively new for us) games begin.

Like Ibaka?

Also, Poeltl would have done a fine job on Griffin, refs were just reffing all over the place.

Not gonna defend the refs, but their tough job is even harder the way a lot of players have learned to act over their years of playing ball Watched the replay of Ibaka's foul a number of times. As soon as he touched Griffin, Griffin's face contorted like Ibaka was jabbing a hot poker up his ass. And almost every player has some variation of this.

After watching Griffin bully Siakam and everyone else not named Ibaka, is there anyone available on waivers that can come in to guard strong mobile players?

OG would probably be the next man up, but after him there’s no one else. We may need another guy for LeBron

Too late. Deadline is past. Had to be officially waived by last night.

thought there may be a chance that it happened last night and we hadn't heard about it but I guess stuff like that doesn't happen in the post Woj world

I'd still love for Tony Allen to be brought in

Might as well. He's basically Norman Powell without offense, but Norman Powell is Norman Powell without offense now anyways it's a defensive upgrade

KIngs are DNP'ing all their vets - a few each game. Carter and Randolph last night, Koufos and Temple the game prior. Part of their tanking strategy.

Which makes it all the more puzzling that Vince didn't find a home on a team with aspirations. Not how I'd choose to spend the stretch drive in likely my last or 2nd last season.

Not many options left.. most of our local beat guys are saying the Raps are going to stay put. A guy like Tony Allen might still be a good play. But if Masai doesn't want to rock the "chemistry" boat then I don't really blame him.

So...VC was a DNP for the Kings in an overtime game last night. On March 1st. Anything there?

He's going to the Bucks. Woj just bombed Twitter.

Lmao, I don't get it. Are the Bucks going to give him real minutes? Cause that'd probably be good for us.

Shabazz Muhammad has agreed to a contract buyout with Minnesota in hopes of signing with a playoff contender, league sources tell ESPN.

I find this really funny for some reason
