Hayward is coming home to Toronto. He's been having secret meetings with Masai all week. It's just a matter of time before he signs the contract. Don't tell anyone though or I might get fired.

>>76897755
20 million is not really that bad when you consider the cap will be going up next year.

Someone PLEASE take Jamal Crawford he's a good bench piece I swear!

So does Igoudala resigning with the Warriors mean that Durant has agreed to a paycut?

Didn't he refuse that when Harden was at OKC?

remember when the Celtics had no stars and had to have Tom Brady show up to their free agent meetings

>>76897864
They said that last year but it the contracts were still bad. And I already know the cap isn't rising more than 3 million. That's worse than Oladipo's contract. At least Oladipo is young and has upside. Ibaka is clearly not close to being the same player he was even 2 years ago.

>>76897919

>JJ Reddit getting that contract
>Stars like George, Butler and Cousins dealt away for pennies on the dollar

It's a madhouse out there.

>>76898059
JJ was paid for one year, and 76ers had plenty of money to burn. It still annoys me though that it's possible for stars to take discounts and get paid similar to role players.

Celtshits are going to get a hard taste of reality next season when their team stops overachieving.

>>76898216
This is why All-star level players should never take less. Reddick would NEVER take less. Ibaka would NEVER take less. Only a fool would accept fewer paychecks.

>>76898220
You can tell the players morale is low as fuck. They're desperately stalking people online and attacking others players just to see their all great GM do nothing. IT is frustrated as fuck. He can feel the pressure now more than ever.

>>76898144
lay off the weed my suburban white friendo

yeah the big ones are mostly gone, sans millsap and hayward i guess. i like following the second, third, and fourth string of FA signings though. everybody can tell that all-stars and all-nba players are good and should be coveted. the real magic is picking up the right role and bench players for cheap. guys like bogdanovic or casspi. so that's still interesting to me i guess, seeing who makes the smart moves.

>>76898291
All-stars get endorsements. JJ Reddick aint getting shit.

Star NBA players have no idea what money is worth because they get paid by the millions. Getting paid 20mill for 1 year basically has you set for life unless you're a dumbass who spends it all on big houses and fancy cars. They don't give a fuck about money.

>>76898125
If you aren't a top tier team like Warriors, you have to join the arms race to attract anyone. But if you want proper team construction you pay 3-4 stars and run min contracts for most other players. So you can't afford to join the arms race. I think this is one of the reason teams are going for tank jobs. They feel it is better to get a bunch of cheap rookie contracts and pick from them who you want to pay.

>>76899594
which is pretty sad

Warriors might not make it out of the west with the new teams. If only they were in the South West division, that's is the toughest division to be in, they would get smacked on a nightly basis.

San Antonio Spurs - if they get depth in exchange for Aldridge
Houston Rockets - cp3
Memphis Grizzlies - muh grit n grind
New Orleans Pelicans - boogie ball with ad
Dallas Mavericks - much coaching

Add the wolves and OKC, good luck. I cna see lebron coasting again and Warriors making it with missing arms and legs. Especially now that teams have an idea on how to start preparing for them. Remember! the bucks laid the blueprint the season the memes won 73 games, the bucks laid it out and then teams began to win. Who will lay the blue print? idk but it wont be a cake walk for them this season. They will NOT, repeat NOT repeat. You can cap this faggots.

>>76899628

So far the spurs haven't gotten any better, Houston might be a net negative, Memphis is not a playoff threat, and Dallas hasn't gotten any better. So that leaves the Twolves and OKC. Minny is going to get destroyed in the playoffs once teams figure out they can just clog the paint and force them to shoot. OKC is better but still not as good as KD + westbrook was.

If the Wiz let him go and sign a third star (not happening, they're all gone now) or wait until next year to get Boogie, then Wall will stay.

If they don't get a star (which is likely) it'd be best to trade Wall before he's a FA and has a year left on his contract.

Wall is not signing the supermax if they match King's offer.

It was good while it lasted ( not really, the Wizards suck)

>>76900126
No fucking way do they match that offer. Porter is a solid player, sure as fuck not a max guy. He is the 4th option on pretty much any decent team.

>>76900240
John Wall was actively recruiting Paul George and made it known he wasn't signing the supermax until the Wizards got a third star.

Otto Porter taking up a max contract destroys that possibility and Otto is not a star at all.

John Wall has long been known to be frustrated with the franchise, his standing in the league, and how he's being paid. He's not going to stay with the Wizards. He will try his hardest to be a FA and leave for the max on a different team.

Wall is too prideful to do such a thing. He's rather go to NOLA and play with Boogie and the Brow.

Can the Wiz do a trade for Holiday now? Or does Holiday have a no trade for at least one year even before July 6th?

That would be litty as fuck.

Jr Smith almost immediately became a respectable player when he went to Cleveland,possibly due to LeBron steadying him, and also because he had a kid. I think he was only a retard meme in New York because it's the fucking Knicks. Nick Young who is an even bigger meme than JR ever was regardless of where he is currently playing.

I have a better question. Which is more weird to say, "Tragic Bronson NBA Champion" or "Swaggy P NBA Champion"?

scrubs getting max contracts out here and im sitting here changing my diaper, what went wrong?

So winning a bunch of games in the East against worse than awful teams and getting swept by the Cavs or knocked out by the Raptors and Celtics early every year for 2-3 years is better than blowing it up and jump starting the rebuild like the rest of the teams in the East?
Shit, they could probably trade Beal or Wall right now then hopefully Otto later to build a better team and pray to god they can land a big FA (not happening at all)

>>76900465
To look at this objectively for a sec, that contact kind of matches up with the timeline of Sacramento's young players

In 3 years they could easily trade him if he's holding them back and they want to start winning

>>76900474
This. If it weren't for the very obvious rigging by the league, Wizards would have been in the ECF

>>76900457
How much cap space do the Nets even have?

>>76900465
Nah, that move is fine for a mediocre team not going anywhere fast. They're not getting anything better or they cripple the Wiz if they don't match.

>>76900520

>>76900380
Since Jrue was already a Pelican, there is no 6 month waiting period.

Someone gave a max to otto porter but they couldn't bother to do it for iggy? If even just to get him off the Warriors?

>>76900520
Like $30m+. They traded Lopez, their highest paid player

>>76899852
>the Golden State Justice League strikes again

how long until Silver dismantles the team because nobody wants to watch the playoffs anymore? people are literally more interested in the off-season than in the Finals

>>76900564
Iggy is much older, in 4 years Porter could be in his prime, in 4 years Iggy will be struggling to stay in the rotation.

>>76900564
$25 million a year for Iggy is idiotic. Any GM who pulls the trigger on that will get fired on the spot.

>>76900516
honestly the offer makes a ton of sense. i dig sacramento's direction in general desu. ever since they traded boogie i'm interested in where they're headed, they were looking at a clean slate after the season, drafted well, and they can develop relatively pressure-free. they have a bunch of promising young guys roughly the same age, though they should add some more steadying vets next to temple.

i think the relative parity within the team helps them though, even if it'd get dysbalanced by a max player. still, kinda interesting experiment up in norcal.

>>76900542
>>76900574
All that space and no moves made,at least not yet.I thought they would be more active by now.

>>76900575
If it's looking like another short playoff runup to the Finals, he's gonna send the refs in to extend series as best as possible. But that doesn't fix blowouts.

There's Golden State, a big gap, Cleveland, massive gap, teams like San Antonio, Houston, Boston, etc. and then everybody else.

Average PF. Not going to be a great defender, but serviceable. Can develop his offense to include the 3PT shot more (shot 46% at UCLA with 1.7 3PA a game). Was UCLA's #1 offensive weapon. If he develops well (has to compete with Sabonis for minutes), could be an established starter. All-star a longshot.
