It's the super max 200mil contract.

As soon as he gets that he may demand a trade and I don't think the Bulls are going to do that, they're going to try and trade him at the draft before his last contract year.

Better than Singler and Roberson.

Therefore a massive improvement.

Also looks at his actual stats, he's an above average shooter.

They now have a good defensive PF that can shoot and is a real starter instead of their rookie who looked overwhelmed in the second part of the season.

Good for the Wolves. I don't particularly like Rubio on the Wovles for the future, but I would dislike Rose on that roster even more.

What, why blow up the core for free agents that can walk. Ingram is the only one who showed flashes of being decent in the NBA.
>>
>>74351410
I think it has to do with how he got to Chicago. He wasn't scouted for college. He played as a role player and then a starter for community college. Then he was a role player at Marquette. Then Chicago took him last in the 1st round. They gave him a chance and he flourished. The 200 million+ he'll receive barring injury is also a nice incentive.

kek 17/7, not even the best player on the team, couldn't even get to WCF last year.

Nash trade was dumb, but keep in mind, if it wasn't for Stern. We would have had Paul,Kobe,Gasol, Howard.

Kobe was fucking balling before the achilles injury. He worked so hard to take a trash team to the playoffs. Nigga said "I don't give a fuck, we are making the playoffs."

Kobe doesn't get injured we delay the rebuild.

The rest of the league continues to underestimate our players. Craptors fans who think that they're just going to waltz into the second seed and beat up on this team are in for a rude awakening. We have one of the youngest teams in the league, a team that is improving every single year, with young players who continue to add to their game every season, and we're already in position to make a run for the ECF.

On draft day, we will either select a future cornerstone player like Fultz, or we will pick up the superstar we didn't get today via trade. Unlike Chicago and Indiana, we aren't operating on borrowed time. Unlike Toronto and Washington, we haven't mortgaged our future for a hopeless attempt to go all-in today. Things are looking good for the Boston Celtics no matter what the jealous haters on /sp/ say.

Not confirmed, but Melo probably said: "Don't bother shopping me, I'll veto anything you faggots throw at me." Just to spite phil jackson and the Knicks.

This isn't nba 2k17. There's a very small window for a team to compete which is exactly what Boston is doing, they were a Paul George or Butler away from taking it over the top to try and win something.

Now you'll wait 3-4 years for your picks to develop (if they're not bust) into a championship caliber core. This is barring injuries or any other freak incidents that commonly occur in sports.

There's no backpedaling. We wanted PG, but indy was demanding too much in return. The trade they wanted would have gutted our roster. That's too much, and we don't have to do that trade.

>>74352336

the package from the clippers was pretty bad, rivers and crawford, if they had future picks sure but they don't

even then they were pretty reluctant to even do that trade in the first place

look at how much shit the kings are getting for what they got for boogie

the knicks would have gotten significantly worse offers than that for melo

at this point it's just best to see the lay of the land during the offseason where perhaps he'd be willing to wave the no trade for more teams because as of right now the teams he would wave it for don't have anything to give the Knicks

LeBron probably won't get hurt but Love and Kyrie can. PG13/Butler would give the celtics a legit shot if that happens. As it stands LeBron can beet every other team in the east by himself

I think we can all agree that the big losers of the night were Chicago and Indiana.

Indiana accomplished nothing of note and now they're going to lose PG for nothing in free agency.

Chicago actually got worse in both the short and long term by trading a player for scraps and failing to get anything for Butler, who they too are going to lose for nothing in free agency.

No, they wanted the pick AND 3 of the celtics 6 best players. Celtics wanted to trade the pick with other picks and maybe one or two of the players.

The reason it's moronic for the bulls is instead of rebuilding around the pick, and being bad, and getting more picks, they wanted guys who will make them win enough games to make their own pick bad.

Sure, but it's not even a win now move. Butler/Thomas/Rozier/Jerebko/Horford with a shit bench is basically the Wizards. Who the celtics are currently better than.

Making that trade is actually betting on next year more than anything else, as they make moves with their picks and cap room to fill in the team.

OK, so you're missing the point to nitpick my choice of phrasing. Got it.

To reiterate: Trading Crowder/Bradley/Smart and the Nets pick doesn't make the celtics better, no matter how much better Jimmy is, the holes in that team means they get bounced this year, and instead of being a win now move, it turns into a move where they have to spend the offseason finding pieces. It's more of a win next year move.

When Boston wins the draft lottery, the value of that asset will skyrocket.

When Boston makes it to the ECF and gives the cavs a series, the value of their player-assets will skyrocket.

Demarre Carroll's corpse can't defend Lebron. PJ Tucker can do a better job of it than anyone on the raptors.

Ibaka's addition means they have more minutes without two centers on the floor, and adding tucker opens up lineups like: Ibaka - Patterson - Tucker - Derozan - Lowry which will take shits all over the Celtics and Wiz starting 5's, since Horford and Gortat probably can't stay on the floor against that kind of team.

Raptors made MOVES.

it's like you people have no concept of how contracts work.

protip: the extra cap space saved by signing a rookie contract basically means you can sign another player in free agency for FREE.
>>
Can you trade a draft pick for a player if you are already above the salary cap?

Like if the Cavs were willing to give a 2nd round pick for a player that another team didn't want anymore could they do that?

the fucked up thing is that the Bulls bought in to this idea. Just think for a moment of how actual retards can become general managers for what are essentially billion dollar companies.

>>74353612
trade the best center they had when nobody knew if embiid would ever play in the nba? Its easy to look back now and say that but nobody remembers embiid was a complete unknown at the start of the season
>>
>>74353627
Not only did they buy into this idea, they put him on a team where he will be the third ballhandler.

To recap: Thunder think he will be good but not if he doesn't get the reps. Bulls agree, and take him, and proceed to give him no reps behind Wade and Butler. I know they don't play the same position, but he's not gonna have the ball in his hands with them on the team.

Matching contracts or a trade exception.

who gives a shit dude.

only actual underages will go through this must analysis on a shitpost to call out an underage.
>>
>>74353662
Trade one of him or Okafor, yeah. There is no need to keep any more than two centers on your team. They had four.

You don't get credit for being in a lose-lose situation if you put yourself in that situation.

what fucking conversation, do you understand a year ago literally nobody on this planet believed embiid would be half as good as hes looked?

the conversation would have been, "hmm should we trade our best young defensive bigman who is a double double machine when our only alternative is a guy whose missed 2 years with injury and a rookie with no defense"

> If these were his final hours as a Knick, Derrick Rose went out calling the triangle offense “random basketball’’ while praising his former coach, Tom Thibodeau, with whom he could soon be reunited.

>Speaking in the visitors’ locker room in Cleveland with the clock ticking on the 3 p.m. trade deadline, a downbeat Rose said he’s “prepared’’ to be traded but is not calling his agent.

>“I’d drive myself crazy if I was to try to keep in touch with [my agent] or keep tabs of what’s going on,’’ Rose said Thursday. “I’m prepared what the decision is. It’s a business. I’m just waiting to see what they’re going to do and decision they’ll make.’’

>There was a congruity to this morning’s Rose comments. After his very first game as a Knick in late October, in this same locker room, Rose talked about adjusting to the triangle sets and lack of pick-and-rolls. Nothing changed in the four months since.

>“It’s a different offense,’’ Rose said Thursday morning. “As a point guard, you’re always in the corner and just got to play off reads and play that way. It’s new for everybody here. I get all my points off random baskets. Unless you see it go to the post, all the other stuff is just random basketball.’’

>Rose is used to Thibodeau’s pick-and-roll attack, and sources indicated that’s why the Wolves coach wants him back: to show the other players how his system is run. Rose is a free agent, and Minnesota would get the edge on re-signing him. Rubio has two years left on his deal after this season, and Jackson would be forced into letting the Spaniard run the team. With four other European players on the club, it could be billed as a cultural and basketball fit.

>Great coach — I haven’t had the time to think about the opportunity to play there,’’ Rose said about Thibodeau. “I’m here. We have a game today. He was a great guy, great coach. Learned a lot from him and won a lot when we were together.
