Doc Rivers traded Austin Rivers to Washington for Gortat. Guess Clippers are ready for post-Deandre Jordan rebuilding.

How does that conversation go at home with the wife?
Hey honey, you won't be seeing Austin much in the next year. Sorry!

Doc isn't the GM anymore , so no awkward conversation needed.
Very meh trade.

Things are starting to happen.
I think Bron gave LA today to get things done with Kawhi or he opts in for one more year in Cleveland.Head Ninja In Charge said:

Several different things, but this stood out about Boogie Cousins

As one league source texted me this week, "New Orleans didn't miss him. It's not even clear he's a winning player even when he's healthy."
I wouldn't touch Cousins at all. Coming back from that injury as a big man is going to be really tough. He may have to take a 1/1 prove it deal or find a team who thinks the risk will be worth the potential reward

I agree with the sentiment. Cousins is a stat filler, but not the type of guy that can anchor a contender. He's too self-centered, doesn't play defense, isn't a switchable defender, and is coming off arguably the worst type of athletic injury. Within 2-3 years Cousins will be Sam Perkins 2.0.
Cousins, Russ Westbrook, possibly John Wall and Blake Griffin are all basketball succubus

I still believe in Cousins. In terms of pure basketball talent, he has to be in the top five. Easily the most offensively talented big man in the NBA. If he gets into the right system with the right coach, I can't see where he wouldn't be extremely valuable.
Lonzo Ball apparently has a torn meniscus.
I wonder if the Ball camp got word out about that to maybe torpedo any trades that would ship Lonzo out of LA?

He tore it during the season. He's definitely leaking it because he wants to stay with LeBron
Like Ball really needed more off the court drama to keep teams from wanting him. Between his dad and trying to play hardball like he's done something, he's going to end up somewhere crappy because none of the good orgs want to deal with it.
Paul George staying in OKC.

Wtf is George doing? He could have signed the same contract with LA,no?
Kind of makes me wonder if LeBron is really going to LA. Maybe PG13 doesn't want to go play with Ball, Cousins, Ingram, and some guys over Westbrook, Adams, and some guys.
I also wonder if LAL lowballed him trying to make all the other deals work and that ticked him off. It seems like the Lakers have been trying to get half the league without giving anything up and they may end up losing out because of it.

They likely won't have their draft pick next year anyways.
I'd really love to see the Lakers pickup nobody this year
