    Thompson has a lot of family in the Portland area. His mom is from the Couve. I wonder if that would give us a leg up.

    Will the Lakers? because when I listen to his dad's radio show he always alludes that he and Klay would love for him to be in LA.

    If Klay is worth $15 mill, what is Wes worth? $12 - 13mill?

    I think they get something done.

    How is someone off limits in a trade for Kevin Love and before the cap increasing not worth the max?

    I see Thompson getting a huge offer like Heyward and Parsons with Wesley getting one in the Ariza range. Not for sure if as many teams will have space though.

    I'd offer him the max. It ain't my money. Love Wes though.

    You know what Thompsons numbers will look like when he's the 3rd option on a team? Probably just like Wesley's numbers without the defensive skills behind them

    Evidently, many have been saying Thompson is the best SG in the NBA. Apparently, it's gone to his head.

    Well, I like Klay Thompson and think he is an upgrade to Wes. But if I were to acquire him it doesn't mean I'd drop Wes. You can't replace his heart.
