Holmes has our offer and is hoping someone comes along and offers more.
Which is an interesting bet because once all those teams play out we don't have to give him the full early bird.
One thing with all the signings today with a handful of S&T deals they are mostly guys re-signing their guys to a huge raise, all using the normal salary provisions. Not seeing a lot of guys change hands on MLE or what have you. Whoever said the league is being sunk by GMs who were former agents and "cap wizards" is right. Not sure what kind of analytics Monte uses to go all defense but at least he is playing some kind of moneychess.

Poor decision by Baze IMO. He’s definitely placing too much stock in overrated names.
The Warriors have names too. And if they are all healthy, they are better than the LAL.
Guess he forgot that GSW made 5 consecutive Finals appearances before major injury and covid struck. Yes, KD joined them for the final 3 appearances, but the core of Steph, Dray and Klay forged the 1st two and the historic 73 win campaign.
With the right role players and good health, GSW >>> LAL. That core has proved a helluva lot more over a much longer time period and also during full 82 game seasons.
