GMoney after the 2000 chip was looking to get paid.
Dr. Buss was like naw we get Rick Fox and Horry coming off the bench that season and replaced him and brought in Horace Grant.

Idk y’all. I think PJ wanted Ho Grant, like he wanted Harper and even tried to bring Dickey Simpkins and Jason Caffey to LA.....never happened. I don’t think it was about Rice wanting a bag. (Did he ever get a bag at that stage of his career from Nee York or Houston ?). I could be wrong
PJ wasn’t a Rice fan iirc. Fox was a better defender and passer in the triangle

Remember when we let young, promising bigs like Thomas Bryant and Zubac go for pretty much nothing? I remember

We had good young big men who couldn't even break the rotation and now we're giving tryouts to washed up veterans. Sad. I'd kill to have Thomas Bryant back.

Obviously, in hindsight it was a bad decision because we knew of the outcome but people would have been pissed if we hadn't made the max slot in pursued Kawhi. Based on everything we heard, it seems like Kawhi and his camp were actively stringing the Lakers along. I can't blame them from getting lied to.
I don't think that either zubac or Bryant were casualties of trying to create cap space. We gave away zubac for Mike muscala in an awful trade and then we let Bryant walk for nothing for no reason at all

PG doesn't force a trade, I think Kawhi signs with the Lakers. *Shrug*

The series is based off this book which I'm reading right now:
Read that on a plane a few years back. Good read

Would be packaged in a trade one way or the other.
