i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

We haven't covered this but

CP-JJ-KD-BG-DJ

is every bit as scary as what the dubs would be putting together with him. wouldn't be able to pay for a single role player tho

thought i heard somewhere that the clips would have to get rid of redick for KD to work

makes sense

even if the clips fill out the roster with a bunch of scrubs, cp3 and kd and daj and griffin is a scary ass team and theres a real role as a dynamic scoring threat from the wing for KD there. i'd still rather him go to LAC than GS.

hmm think he shd go to boston

i've said i want KD to go to the warriors for the drama and i would still love it, but actually i hope he signs with the clippers because chris paul needs a ring

no, clippers are cursed, kd is cursed, that team wont win, itll just be scary bc of ghost stories

i think its like 90% he's staying in OKC tho

i have heard this number, too, where tf did it come from?

marc spears iirc xp

kd on clippers feels even more wrong than dubs somehow

they would have 4 players making over 20 mill

a whole team of evan turners crazy to think about

the hawk's offense def got worse but if dwight can defend and most importantly rebound half of what he used to the team won't be any worse. the hawk's have been so bad at giving teams extra possessions bc they can't get a board. they were a good defense last year but this line up could potentially be a lot better. and plus we're only paying a 3 yr max instead of 5 for our big man so i'm not too mad

but damn i'm gonna miss horford. i can still remember exactly what i was doing when the hawks got the third pick in lotto (would've lost it if it was 4 or higher) and i knew we were getting him. he always brought it, even when playing under some of the shittiest coaches and for some really unlikeable teams. one of the most consistent players i've ever seen. it was a pleasure watching him go at it all the time. kinda hope he goes to the Cs even though i generally hate the Cs. that'll be a seriously tough defense with him out there.

im still agog at this solomon hill deal. like...he averaged 4 and 3 last year. played <15 mpg. career 33% from 3. 4 year/50 mil.

yeah xp something like this too

Feels like the Hawks didn't want to run the same team back after getting swept by the Cavs two straight years.

is this right?

yeah thats what i heard on the radio today

it looks legit. if cap is ~$94 million, clips have $64 mil next year set aside for CP3, griff, and DAJ. and there are cap holds on roster sports as well. so theyd have a good 10 spots each commanding a cap hit of like lets say $500k. so ball park, 70 mil used up.

roster SPOTS obv

yeah he's not going to LA

maybe they talked about next year when CP and BG can opt out and they can all team up and take less

thats a lot of ppl taking major pay cuts.

yeh id rather have the banana boat

trying to understand the evan turner thing. is he gonna play the 3? or come of the bench? how does that even work

he was apparently promised a starting role so uhh yeah

whoa hawks apparently trying real hard to resign horford still

joe johnson 2/22 w jazz

uhhhhh

v weird

Dudley back to the suns 3/30

i like the move. get a good solid vet/locker room guy to help build the culture w all the youngsters

can't believe that joe johnson contract finally ended

luol deng 4/72 to the lake show - that's honestly a pretty solid signing

Ehhhh not for that length, though

guess they felt like they needed a vet and the money didnt really matter on their timeline, prob better than starting ingram right off the bat tbh, tho they did throw away their chance of having 2x max space next summer

it youre a subscriber to vet influence theory deng does seem like a super solid guy

on the other hand the lakers (who are dum) prob just think deng is the player thatll get them back to contention

looking forward to the "durant meets with the spurs for 7 hours" and "according to sources kd is FLOORED by the celtics pitch" tweets before he announces hes resigning w okc for one year

Zach Klein @ZachKleinWSB
Multiple sources tell me Al Horford is not a fan of the Dwight Howard signing. Could play major role in decision to stay with Hawks

uh yeah duh they play the same position

deng signing is bad, have fun trying to move that contract when ingram is ready to start.

I imagine ok c's pitch will at least in part be clips of durant and Westbrook cussing out waiters then "remember this dude? He's out"

he got less money than evan turner! lol

I suppose they could use deng as some sort of small-ball 4 like spo did in miami, which leaves randle out but I'm not sure if randle is particularly good tbh?

if they just give deng some juice its a fine signing

horford choosing between celtics and wiz apparently

im on board

I know you're being sarcastic but I'm legit looking forward to "KD told friends he is looking at houses in stone oak and is eager to get mangonadas"

sources quoting kd as saying breakfast tacos ate "tite af bro"

Al Horford has informed the Hawks that he will make his final free-agent decision tonight. Celtics and Wizards are currently in the lead.

would this be the celtics' biggest FA signing ever?

Marc Stein ✔ @ESPNSteinLine
Jon Leuer has landed a four-year deal worth $42 million with the Pistons, sources say
