Stupid question... with Dame’s max contract which he all deserves, can we still sign another superstar FA to help him?

No, but Dame’s new contract extension has nothing to do with this since it doesn’t kick in for two years. The Blazers don’t have any cap space and only have the Taxpayers MLE to use to sign a free agent. To add a max player will require a trade.

I don’t get this line of thinking. If I’m a Sixers fan I want as many rotational players as possible for Butler. He either gets you something or leaves you for nothing, and by nothing I mean they spent Saric and RoCo for a seasons worth of him.

If I was the Sixers I would only do it if I get back JRich AND Bam. Otherwise wishing them good luck.

The 76ers literally have all the leverage here if Butler chooses Miami. They can't make it work unless they give in to the demands of the 76ers. Miami can't trade a 1st until 2023 either so I'd be asking for JRich and Bam too.
 
If I'm the 76ers I think I'd rather have a 25 year old Josh Richardson making $10 million a year instead of a 29 year old Jimmy Butler making $32+ million a year. I'd take Olynyk too and then find a 3rd team to take on one of the other contracts to make the trade work. Re-sign Tobias Harris and add some cheap shooters and I think that could possibly be better than last year's team.
 
KD, Kyrie, and Jordan to Brooklyn.

If Kawhi leaves Toronto, I expect a full rebuild (basically everyone for sale except VanVleet and Siakam).

We should jump on Ibaka or Gasol.

Harkless and Leonard for Gasol(or Ibaka) it is.

I think finding a good replacement until Nurk is back (and if he is at a good level when he comes back) is more important than keeping Harkless.

Sure but I wouldnt want either Gasol or Ibaka, maybe if Ibaka remembered how to shoot.
 
Kawhi isn’t going to the Lakers, that would be the softest move in NBA history, you can’t tell me a dude who has proven he can win a chip with 0 other superstars is gonna team up now and take that heat. No way.
 
I get the feeling that Lowry will be dealt to Dallas this off-season.

Ibaka still put up 15/8 on a championship team last season. He has a lot of value to a team looking for a one off for a run.

:dunno: Trading moe / leonard for either of those guys would basically do nothing for me either way. It seems like a sideways move.

Think this scenario, trade Hark and Leonard for Ibaka, sign Kanter to TPMLE, and add a wing with the BAE.
