Then what in the offseason? Let him walk? Pay 30+ mil for him. What would be the point of this move from a long term perspective?
1) I am NOT pushing for this move. Just speculating on the possible interest.
2) There are SO MANY moving parts to this and hypotheticals involved. I would need to know a lot before saying I like this kind of move. How much does DAngelo get in the next contract? How much do you give up to give him? Etc.
3) I just do NOT like the SD fit with Luka at all. I think SD needs to be cashed in on, NOW. I am open to seeing if DAngelo would be a better fit.
4) But DAngelo would be far down the list of possibilities for me. I would explore dozens of other options first.
