Doesn't Miami already have Deng fever?

Lance Stephenson joined Charlotte wtf is he thinking, he signed for 18M (2 years, 9M a year) while Indiana offered him 44M (5 years, 8.8M a year). its basically the same yet he moved to an inferior team

 

[Suns]

Why lock yourself 5 years? The salaries will change in 2 years with the new NBA TV deal and in Charlotte he'll get a bigger role, will post bigger numbers and in 2 years will be able to get the max.

Noooooo!!!!! Wtf Lance??? any idea who my Pacers are gonna get to replace him?

 

[zizinho]

they are looking for options. no idea currently who they might get.

yes they will if he stops acting like a douche next 2 years and becomes the 1st(or 2nd) option. He will show he can average more ppg and have better role.

he is still no superstar. he will up his numbers (maybe, or maybe not) but he is not someone you would want to build a team around. he will get more money if he stops acting as a douche, but not a max contract

This. I don't think he'll get max but he can make something like 15 mill. It would be stupid to lock yourself to a five year contract with the new deal coming up.

Ed Davis to the Lakers, 2M a year. they also re-signed some players like Jordan Hill and Nick Young so they dont have any cap space left until and if they trade Nash

The 2nd year on the Hill deal is a team option.


Look, this team needs to have SOME players on the squad.

I hope this is for trade bait for later on in the season.

At least they have a full roster now with only 3 players tied to a contract after next season (Kobe, Young :wtf:, and Randle)

America is strange

The whole Paul George injury situation, everybody is making press statements as if he was hit by deadliest ebola or something. Injury happens in sport, move on.

 

[da_ledgeaun]

Dudee, did you see it though? They make a huge deal about it for football players in EPL and La Liga as well, I remember it was everywhere when Ramsey got that horrific injury.

Get well soon PG!!

 

[ALC]

Swaggy P is a good squad player.

 

[Salvo]

The deal reportedly involves Andrew Wiggins, 2013 No. 1 overall pick Anthony Bennett & protected 2015 1st-rd pick. Yahoo Sports reports Love will re-sign w/ Cleveland on 5-year deal.

Wut.
