So Nets are gonna have KD, Kyrie, Deandre Jordan as top players, Dinwiddie, Levert, Joe Harris all solid role players and a few young guns in Kurucs, Jarret Allen and Hollis-Jefferson. That's not bad, has a lot of potential to succeed as well as potential to end in a dressing room disaster :D wonder what they'll do with PF though, Carroll is gone, Kurucs doesn't have the mass to play there and Dudley is too old for a while now
Take out Hollis Jefferson, is not good and aint staying. But both for PF and young players count Tuaryn Prince for it.

Reports are that the 76ers did indeed offer Butler a max deal, but he turned it down. From the outside it looks like he would rather be a star on a borderline playoff team than a key component to a team with championship aspirations. Looks as if Philly made the right move @ALC
He is an idiot for leaving championship contending for 7 - 8 seed level treadmill team...

Sixers extended Simmons’ contract, he’s now a max player :tup: love it, the core is now set long term

Iggy could be going to the Lakers

Excellent. Now work on a jump shot you fuck. I'm getting tired of defending you to Celtics fans who insist that Tatum is better. :lol:


As far as Iggy. That is what I am hearing as well. Both he and Korver could be joining once they are bought out.

If it's all about living in Miami, buy a house to live their in the offseason. It's about being the man with Butler. There is no way if I were in his shoes, and the money was the same, that I would have left Philly for Miami. That's allright though. Philly ended up getting a younger, poor man's version of Butler in Richardson AND used that money to sign Horford. I still think they are a sharpshooter away, though.

Yeah we’ll miss Redick and Shamet.

Rumors of Melo going to the Lakers as well

Iguodala id welcome very much, for 15 minutes a night he is still an asset. Melo, meh. Can be useful in the right role, but going toa tanking team and jack up shots seems like a better idea.

Id love Vinsanity here. He should retire with a ring

The two main buyout targets should be Iggy and Korver. Especially Korver. They signed Troy Daniels yesterday to an NBA minimum deal. 3 point specialist. Career 40% FG from beyond the arc.

Marko Guduric to Jazz from Fenerbahce. 48% 3pt shooter on 3 attempts in 22 minutes a game in 36 euroleague games. Lets see if he can adapt to NBA pace, then he could be a solid addition

Memphis not Utah, sorry

Man, the players the Lakers are filling the roster with are going to be such a disaster if a Kawhi doesn’t go there or if one of the big three get injured.

Oddly enough, there are more free agents left onthe market than there are teams with the cap space to sign them.

“Money comes and goes; your legacy is forever,” Davis said. “I think how you establish yourself in the NBA and what you do on and off the court is something that people will remember forever. Obviously, our money is public and people know what we make, but at the end of the day no one cares about how much money you make.

“Anthony Davis is not going to be a great basketball player because of the amount of money he makes, it’s going to be about what he achieved on the court and also off the court. That’s all part of my legacy, and I think that’s way more valuable than any monetary value.”

Jared Dudley signed with the Lakers on the vet minimum. He is one of the most well liked guys in the league, and a good locker room guy. Can also hit a 3 pointer.

Regardless of whether Kawhi signs or not, I already like the two guys they have signed to minimum deals a lot better than what they did last year

Aside from his beef with Ben Simmons, which in and of itself was hilarious because Simmons is about 10 levels higher than Dudley :lol:

But aside from that though, all of his teammates that have played with him love him. I like the makeup of this team so far as far as getting some good dudes that can help fill a need. Troy Daniels is known as a good teammate as well

Still so many free agents available

Marcus Morris, DeMarcus Cousins, KCP, Danny Green, Jabari Parker, Rondo, Trey Burke

Lol the Ben Simmons - Dudley beef was one of the funniest things ever. I’m gonna miss him if we meet Brooklyn in the playoffs again
