How far would this team go in the Eastern conf playoffs with PG on the team?
Depends when you have to play Lebron but they'd be behind Boston. Maybe Philly just cause we have nobody to guard Embiid.

I'd be comfortable giving Randle a contract in the $15m/year range. Once you're in that $18m-20m/year range then you're overpaying for him. I think alot of fans wrongly believe that there is a huge market for Randle. Not many teams have that much cap space. All of the "Mavs are going to offer Randle big money" rumors are from Laker fans assuming that they'll offer him the bag and because he's from there. These rumors are never from actual Mavs reporters/insiders!
Deng's deal will be very easy to move next offseason. He'll be a large, expiring contract next summer. If we want to be a player in the 2019 free agency class then we can move Deng + a second for cap space with no problem.
Eh I don’t pay attention to the off-season work out videosLove that Ingram is back in the lab already
Well of course our offer isn't going to start at 20 mil, the question is if another team does offer that 20+ per yr deal, do you let him walk for nothing over a 5-7 mill difference? I think that would be really dumb. Signing Randle doesn't completely rule out bringing in another max lever player in 2019.
Agree. He played well last year but people act like he’s a franchise player. He was the main option for much of the second half of the season. What happens when his touches drop with Ingram healthy and possible addition of PG? Paying 20 mill for a third option that may get you 12 and 9 isn’t worth it. Undersized at that.Randle ain't worth 20 mil

youre kidding right$5-7m difference annually is huge. That's the difference between a 5yr/$75m deal, which I think is reasonable, and a 5yr/$100-$110m deal which I think is a massive overpay. Every team in the league shells out big money, its all about who you're shelling out big money to. To put things in perspective, Draymond Green is making $16m/yr and Klay is making $18m.
Championship teams aren't paying players like Julius Randle $22m/year, they're just not. Unless you think Randle is going to become a perennial all-star, I wouldn't give him that much money

I just have a gut feeling that somehow Boogie is going to end up signing with the Lakers this summer.
Maybe Magic convinces him to 1 year big money guaranteed + 1 year option deal to get him to sign with the Lakers.
So u wanna pay him $30M to play 6 weeksHe's not playing until February at the earliest. If we strike out with Lebron, PG and other free agents, I don't see the harm in taking on a big one year deal and hoping he comes back 100%

of Basketball?
If we stretch Deng can we sign 2 max and give Randle his money?
