Masai kinda getting stubborn though and not dealing players at ideal times.

They went into this season on seeing how OG does before deciding on contract talks when it's been reported he wants to most he can get in FA (more than what they Raps can pay) and wants a bigger role on offense.

We didn't get anything in return for losing both Lowry and FVV.

I think he'll deal one of or both OG & Siakam for pieces to build around Barnes.

We have his bird rights, so no team can outbid us on OG (or Siakam). The real issue is that he's a UFA and can choose to sign with any team he wants. Masai should have traded Siakam/OG when they still had years left on their contracts and now we'll have to overpay for both (not so bad in OG's case) to retain them.

Precious played well for like a month and is just a bench player currently.

Waited so long for a deal and his destinations dwindled to where the return was a promising project rather than ready contributor for an Allstar.
