i can’t wait to see that contract. i don’t think morey can actually give him the max contract but how much of a cut does harden accept

James Harden, in a close out game you can't have a performance like that; only take two shots and score no points in the second half?— Earvin Magic Johnson (@MagicJohnson) May 13, 2022

Maybe Morey will give Harden the max after a real heart to heart convo where James looks in Darryl's eyes and promises to get in shape in the offseason.

its a perfect story that the smartest man in basketball was so enamored with james harden that he forgot to check if he was still good at basketball

if his rehab goes normally i bet he’s on a contending roster come the playoffs next year. some teamwho is desperate for wing shooting will give him a shot
― J0rdan S., Friday, 13 May 2022 20:23 (two years ago) link
he'll get one more shot if he wants it but hes likely not playing until the 2024 season

hes 34 if i were him id be thinking about hanging it up, you really want to go through a year of intense rehab to maybe get a shot at a min deal idk rip

similar to how folks seems to be slowly hipping to the fact that letting politics morons spew whatever they want on TV is potentially bad for society I need a new yorker expose on how people like perkins and shaq have jobs talking nonsense about the NBA when they should know better but just don’t care to

one has to assume that ESPN and TNT have market research indicating that the Shaqs and Perks of the world have added value. Even though he's been on for like 15 yrs I still honestly think of Shaq as an interloper to the original (and all-time) Inside the NBA with just Ernie-Kenny-Chuck. But I'm sure all the dumb bits with Shaq are the most popular segments, so

the draft guy at the althetic has jabari smith ranked ahead of chet and it just seems crazy to me this is the contemporary version of teams just taking an athletic seven footer first just cause thats the valuable type of guy except in this case hes a big wing who can shoot and defend and tbf he is very big and athletic and can shoot the heck out of the ball but im watching his season highlight package now and feel very comfortable in saying that he had fewer than ten impressive drives all last year he just does not seem to have an off the bounce game hes a 3 and d guy youre really gonna draft a 3 and d guy number one
― lag∞n, Monday, 16 May 2022 18:48 (two years ago) link
granted hes very young and has time to learn things but just never driving at all idk and chet is a natural baller he does it all and is scrappy too literally the one strike against chet is that hes a skinny man, smith might be soft its hard to say doesnt seem like hes in there mixing it up
― lag∞n, Monday, 16 May 2022 18:50 (two years ago) link
agree entirely and apparently his numbers finishing at the rim are alarming. he shot 43% on two pointers overall. the athletic guy's argument is that jabari won't be played off the floor in the playoffs because he's a wing who can shoot and guard which makes sense except if you're not really that good how much does it matter if you're on the floor. wiggins isn't being played off the floor either but he also wasn't considered a useful player until he ended up on a team where he was the fourth option on offense
when ppl talk about chet i almost wonder if they look at his shot, like they just take for granted that he's a good shooter and we've seen bigs who can shoot and it just is what it is. but i feel like at that height the only guys i can think of who have better looking shots are KD and dirk. everything about his shot is natural and easy. i just don't see how he fails, he's too good of a shooter, he's guaranteed 40%+ from three, he can also dribble and move, if he ever develops a post or mid range game a la dirk he's gonna break defenses. jabari smith is very easy to understand but he also just might be a completely average player. i don't see how chet is worse than myles turner and his ceiling is one of the best big men to ever play
― J0rdan S., Monday, 16 May 2022 19:17 (two years ago) link
yeah that wont get played off the floor line is wild i hope the 1st pick wont get played off the floor you prob didnt take the right guy if he does

so ayton wants a max contract this offseason and phoenix doesn't want to keep him if it means they pay him at max. the questions I have for the ILH collective are: Will any team want ayton on their team as a max contract? And if ayton gets an offer sheet somewhere at or near to the max, will phoenix match it?
I mean, it's not a Ben Simmons level soap opera, but it's a storyline.
― more difficult than I look (Aimless), Monday, 16 May 2022 21:40 (two years ago) link
there's def teams that would give him the max. it's the rookie max and for any team signing him as a FA it's only 4 years, it's pretty low risk esp if you aren't in a cap crunch which the suns are.
as for matching, i bet they'd try and sign and trade him. maybe they'd match, but teams can also do all sorts of poison pill things or whatever. it doesn't seem like things are headed towards a longterm relationship there
― J0rdan S., Monday, 16 May 2022 21:55 (two years ago) link
ayton is eligible for a contract somewhere between ~32-34m a year depending on if he signs with the suns or goes somewhere else, kinda think no ones going to give him nearly that much idk there are some dumb teams tho
― lag∞n, Monday, 16 May 2022 21:56 (two years ago) link
i think desperate teams in far flung markets would do it -- detroit, charlotte, apparently indiana was calling them at the deadline. portland maybe. the knicks? atlanta?
