LAL: DeRozan/CPIII in to fill AR gap and to boost perimeter scoring off Luka (DeRozan will be great midrange relief-valve for Luka doubles). Sheds non-performers Knecht, Vincent, Kleber.
LAC: LaVine takes over offense on nights when Harden/Kawhi sit/injured/flat ... expensive Beal replacement but needed for playoff hopes. Also needed perimeter spacer gives Harden more room to operate.
SAC: LaVine/Derozan didn't work in CHI, don'/ know what the f they were thinking, but scratch/reboot, bring in Trae to pair proper with Sabonis and go from there. Trae's a country boy, will like SAC, needs to stay small-market to sign another decent contract. Massive new cap flex with all the expiring contracts.
ATL: solid bench fodder (Schroeder/Collins) and picks for Trae makes for a solid playoff team for the foreseeable future. Resign Collins next year on team-friendlier deal (i.e. 3/$39).
