I think Per year which is definitely a bit of an overpay for Austin.
However, he'll probably opt out of this deal after this upcoming season is over anyway, so it's more like 3.2M for one year.

makes sense. $1.6 would have been a steal per year.
I don't mind it too much. I think he's growing. I feel like he found some confidence at the end. Basketball junkie. 500 makes a day should be his daily dose.
However, when i think about what Gerald Green makes (who I'd love off the bench), the money was steep.

So Dallas is trying to sign Javale.
Wonder if he signs there, what his contract and role would look like. Clips are probably the best destination for him...but I see what Cuban is doing.

Cubes probably told him he can put up Wilt numbers and McGee is stupid enough to believe him.

Nice. Now JaVale has only 19,994 to go.

Josh Smith and the Clippers are "still having conversations," per source. But Smith is also "talking with several teams."

J Smoove and Lance playing together is either boom or bust. They are essentially the same player at different positions.
If it does work...woah. You're going to have explosive playmaking defenders that rebound the ball well and enable a number of different small ball lineups.
Imagine a lineup of Cp3, JJ, Lantz, Jsmoove, Blake.
Spacing might suffer a little, but that defense to offense would be a thing of beauty. Just tell them to only shoot 3 open 3's a game.

I think its really up to Josh at this point. Sounds like he has a few suitors, so its going to be about what's more important to him -- minutes, chance to start or chance to win.

who else is looking at him? Teams with a chance to win?
I don't think we have the type of guys who would mesh with Josh. Still want it though. I think his "attitude" issues are overblown now. That was a thing of the past with him.

I honestly haven't seen another team specifically linked to him besides us and Houston. But I've seen multiple tweets saying he's talking to "multiple" teams. I for sure think he'd be an asset on this team. Love the possibilities he presents to put out "small" but defensively solid line ups.

Josh Smith would be a killer in small ball.
It's funny that we are in conversations for Josh Smith when I was told last year verbatim that the reason why we really didn't pursue him after detroit let him ago, was because they thought he was a "cancer."
In any event, he would add to our depth tremendously man. Hopeful.
Also, Cole is about as good of a backup big as you're going to find...as long as Doc uses him in an effective manner.

Josh Smith and Lance together???
No thanks, I prefer Arthur.
Why would Josh leave HOU to come here anyway?

Oh god no. Josh Smith to the Clippers.
WAY too many people need the ball on the 2nd unit.

Perhaps
But I think it could work. Josh can be awesome in the 2nd unit I feel
2nd unit could either be awesome or a train wreck.
Either way, what an offseason by gm doc. Said he was going to revamp the pieces around the core and absolutely did it. Wow

This. And, unfortunately, I don't see any middle ground. Either the best second unit in the league or a total crash-and-burn.
Crawford is even more the odd man out now.
