nba off season 2024 bud 2 suns etc

a lot of the maybe thats kind of crazy

Yah prob close to half of those

btw til thats 2nd apron teams get their 1rp bumped to the end of the line if they are in the 2nd apron in 3 out of 5 years, thats brazy

if you're boston thats no big deal youre already #30, if ur the suns lolllll

the 2nd apron penalties are very harsh lol

guys who prob arent going anywhere from that list bron mitchell kat dray mikal kcp

i'd add randle to that list of guys who'll stay, bcz the knicks drastically overvalue him

if bron wants to win a title, he will leave la, but i think his heart's not in it and he'll take the big sack of cash

i think the warriors are going to look a lot different next year

i'm taking the under on trades involving trae, dejounte, garland, mitchell, KAT, butler etc i think teams have sky high asking prices for players whose contracts make them questionable as longterm assets

where is all the demand to trade a bunch of assets for a PG coming from, this has yet to be adequately explained

yeah itd prob have to be more of a their teams are ready to move on type situation for some guys

garland to spurs has potential to be a more legit trade that makes sense for both teams

tho might require a third team in the mix idk

dejountes on a p reasonable contract imo, and i cant imagine cavs will keep both mitchell and garland.

all reports are pointing towards cleveland keeping mitchell so yeah they kinda have to move garland, pretty bad timing tho since he had such a bad season, could see them waiting and hoping he bounces back to start the season

the outline of a deal that makes sense is something like keldon+draft picks (2 1rps?) and salary filler (zach collins?) for darius. i think they could get him for far less than what theyd need for trae and i think he'd give you like 85% of what trae can. but its still an awkward defensive fit.

i kinda think dejounte would be perfect back on the spurs but i dont think atl would be willing to help the spurs unless they got at least two of their picks back.

garland is a good defender, i like him more than trae, injury history is troubling tho

i would love to be pleasantly surprised but every team is asking for a pick haul for their under contract assets and i just don't think any of these guys actually warrant that. dejounte murray was on a great contract at the deadline and the hawks couldn't find a deal they liked.

i think the warriors are going to look a lot different next year

The stuff I've seen about Klay is that he's 50/50 about staying (and he might be prioritizing the length of whatever new deal over total money). Also, that even if he leaves, that might not alleviate the cap crunch, because of various cap arcana.

all right which of these 20 guys are changing teams soon:

this is right, for one my hunch is that the media always wishcasts more trades than actually happen (because it's easy and fun) and second there's no one out there who's actually worth selling the farm for. my guess would be this summer is pretty quiet on player movement and the following summer is insane as some of the unsuccessful second apron teams start blowing things up.

A year unlike any other.

the fact that the celtics barely appear in that until the very end tells a lot

All they did was win consistently all season without a lot of drama. But Joe Mazzula showed up calling LeBron a soft little boy, so that was good.

Ooops! Ime Udoka, not Joe M.

Lakers putting up the IST banner is high comedy, in the season that the Celtics passed them

otm that’s great stuff

There is a clarity in the organizational flow chart that was murky in the past. Cuban, despite his claims after selling the majority share of the franchise midseason to the Adelson and Dumont families, no longer has control of basketball operations. Harrison reports to new governor Patrick Dumont, who is kept informed but has shown trust in Harrison to handle roster personnel matters. Dumont rewarded both Harrison and Kidd with multi-year contract extensions during this playoff run.

so cuban is basically a fan with a really good seat now

yup

ESPN Sources: After one season, the Detroit Pistons have dismissed coach Monty Williams — who leaves with five years and $65M-plus left on his deal. New President Trajan Langdon will move to make his own coaching hire now. pic.twitter.com/QHKivQS5o2

that golden parachute is crazy

wow

lol

the 65 million is a nice consolation, but it's still that sad Monty can't live out his dream of coaching the Detroit Pistons for the next 5 years

just embarrassing for everyone lol

perhaps constantly running out bench-heavy lineups with the worst roster in the league was part of a 'the producers'-like plot

the optics of leaking this on juneteenth are…less than ideal

potentially one of the most important days in the careers of cade cunningham and jaden ivey…

pistons taking up the mantle of truly awful org god bless gotta have at least one

they should interview Dan Hurley

monty making like 75 million+ between the suns and pistons to not coach is the best thing. dude won

so cuban is basically a fan with a really good seat now

and they paid him $3.5 billion to sit in that seat. i'd take that deal!

GP2 reups, which has some repercussions on resigning Klay.

dude won

for any nba head coach that's just a consolation prize, but it's a hella good one!

Woj reporting JJ signing 4 year deal to be Laker coach
Let the drama begin

Is JJ going to bring Tommy in as an assistant?

lol the coaching search has finally completed, hope everyone can rest and recover

The Los Angeles Lakers have reportedly completed their coaching search and JJ Redick will be the 29th head coach in franchise history. @LakersSBN https://t.co/xEmcSuQ186
