nba off season 2024 bud 2 suns etc

love mitch rob but if you have him you need two startable centers, due to his injury and free throw issues

hartenstein offered a lot more on offense and wasn't so much of a dropoff on defense, plus he could be more or less trusted at the ft line

if the knicks didn't hate drafting in the first round, i'd think they'd try to package their 24 & 25 picks to get into the mid teens to try for a upside big like kel'el ware

The Miami Heat and Bam Adebayo – a three-time All-Star and three-time All-Defensive player – intend to reach a three-year, $166 million maximum contract extension, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Heat expect to lock in their cornerstone center through the 2028-29 season. pic.twitter.com/r8K8P6nyRE

I know this is has become a routine sport, but "intend to reach."

how many layers deep of weasel words can we get

.@stephenasmith reports that the Suns "want out of Kevin Durant right now."

"Pay no attention to what Phoenix is saying. They want out of Kevin Durant right now. ... Houston doesn't want Kevin Durant, Ime Udoka may want him. ... Their plans are more long-range." pic.twitter.com/JpuJDdNWPj

OG Anunoby will return to the Knicks on a massive 5-year, $212 million deal

that is an insane contract but for a team that is right there*, it makes sense. similar to the haul they gave up for bridges, which is why “market price” is a misleading term imo — there are only a handful of teams desperate enough to make a deal like that.) OG

*analogous maybe to MPJ’s max, which is an overpay objectively but he was a crucial piece to a title

knicks are all in man wow.

the durant stuff is just so lol at this point. a superstar without a home

he could go to China etc and I’m not sure it would really matter

blazers traded Brogdon, tonight’s 14th pick, and a 2029 first and seconds to the wiz for deni avdija sure okay (makes office jim face)

random

this is the first evidence that the blazers are trying to win a lot more games this year. gotta love it

I’m perplexed about that one

that brogdon trade chip never ended up materializing for portland

people on twitter seem to like deni

This is a shocker. Deni improved tremendously last season and I think he has way more upside left in him. Currently not a fan of this move but the asset return is enticing. https://t.co/YIoW1rmh9y

and then theres this

I've got the Trail Blazers about $4.2M under the luxury tax after swapping Malcolm Brogdon and the 14th pick for Deni Avdija.

The Blazers had to get out of the tax this year. To pick up a nice fit in Avdija at a position of need is good work.
