2018 draft was wild man. 6 out of the top 10 picks could be on new teams by next week Luka / Trae / JJJ Bridges drafted by Philly but he’s always been a sun Ayton / Bamba / Carter / Sexton / Bagley / Knox
Orlando picks Bamba one pick before Carter but Carter is their starting C for the next 5-10 years while Bamba doesn't get a second deal
My recommendations would be to first call Minnesota to see if they want to help turn your franchise into champions. If that fails then call New Jersey and then Washington.
Gotta love a situation where the likely outcome is worse for both teams involved. NY overpays a good not great player, Dallas has no way to replace him
The Knicks throwing that kind of money at Brunson isn't that crazy. It's how FA works. You overpay and hope for the best. What's peak Knicks is that NBA media thinks it needs to spend weeks live tweeting the Knicks' chase of Jalen Brunson, who I'm sure is a nice person but is not anyone people outside of DAL and NYK give a single fuck about. #thisleague
yea they're actually doing him a disservice when he inevitably does not live up to being a $25mil+ /year player
Maybe not, but it's not like he's worth $12M and they're going to double it. He's probably worth $18-20M. He's going to get $25M (maybe a bit more?). Yes, it's an overpay, but the only reasons people are really going to laugh that much about it is because A) it's the Knicks; and B) this FA class sucks and there's not many players or teams with space to talk about.
was factoring in a large dose of "its the Knicks" in that comment as well, their fanbase won't handle it well
Dallas could have had Brunson extended at what 4/60 last summer? and though I think he’s a good player, I also think he benefitted greatly from the space Luka/Dallas’ 3pt shooters provided
buddy gonna be looking for new representation pretty quick here after blowing that commission for rich and the boys
Heat about to let PJ and Dipo walk and trade Duncan for Jae fucking Crowder. Can someone please put washed Pat Riley out of his fucking misery please?
Hear me out. A tv show with Kyrie and Emmanuel Acho where they just sit by a brook with yuppie style sweaters wrapped over spewing life philosophies.
The Trez Harrell thing was a blip on the radar during the playoffs, I forgot he was moving weight El Chapo Trez
Obviously varying degrees of bad, but Harrell, Bridges, Clifford hiring, and Duren trade is one shitty off-season. Just waiting for video of Gordon Hayward at the insurrection to be released any day now.
Love how Woj and Shams can tweet news about coaches getting fired before the coaches have even been told they're fired, but won't touch something like this Bridges thing. Seems like this is a pretty big deal and should be recognized by someone who covers the league on a national level.
