i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

who wouldn't want to play w/ kelly olynyk and marcus smart

yes who wldnt want to play with just paul pierce and i bunch of scrubs, if only the celtics had some valuable assets and a gm with a history of turning assets into star players

https://youtu.be/VjEq-r2agqc

if the nets pick lands in the top two (~35% iirc) theyre gonna have pa lot of options, regardless its in the top six so it has good value even if they lose the lottery

i mean id be cool w the celtics keeping that pick and signing horford or w/e

think they have a p reasonable chance of prying a better player lose tho

Laker Nation: The Lakers should call LeBron James agent. We know he's going stay in CLE but they should go after him just in case he leaves.

magic thinking outside the box

Magic basically advocating stalking married exes after getting dumped there, nice

also just don't get the sense that kd wants anything at all to do with russ whatsoever, but that could be my own personal bias against knuckleheads.

Probably because of their differences regarding halal.

cant watch religion tear apart another great basketball team

Durant was not in the mood to discuss his feelings after the blowout loss.

"I'm not telling you," Durant said when asked if he was mad or frustrated by the loss. "... Cause it's over with. Move on. We'll just move past it and figure out what we need to do better. No crazy emotions. It's not like we're upset, screaming at each other in the locker room after the game. That's not going to make things better

what if...

nah jk that's from last year's offseason

He will be tempted to leave the Thunder to chase a ring, as LeBron did back in 2010. He could potentially join the Cavs.

no he will not

anyways celtics would be really cool, more weight in the east is a good thing for the league

hah checkout this quasi accurate vision

i think if you shop a player into a new uni and it doesn't come true you should have to pay some kind of fine

what no there shd be a fine for not shopping a player into a uniform

Dirk n Parsons opting out.

i imagine dirk to take less on a longer deal? two year vets minimum or something.

dirk to boston book it

parsons could be a steal if you get 70+ games out of him, he'll probably get a max though because $$$

dirk is such a chump man

Where did your dirk hatred come from? I don't remember this in the past

i love dirk!

taking a pay cut to play for this sorry team is such a sad thing to see

^^

cuck nowitzki morelike huh

Oh haha

But they're gonna sign Dwight

dirk is cool with the millions he's already got. he seems to have no ambitions for world domination post-nba. he'll probably just kick back with some brewskies.

CP is def joining CP and Clips next year

not a bad fit

please lord

That starting 5 would be ridic. They can't afford him tho right?

can't every team afford anyone rn

parsons wld be a perfect fit for the clips theyve had a black hole at the 3 since forever

according the lowe, the cap is gonna be 90M next year; clips have about 77.5M of guaranteed money next year. they could maybe make it happen with a trade or two and/or maybe buying pierce out or something, but the bench will be a disaster probs. again.

cap is gonna be 92M* next year

larry bird might be looking for a new coach - are there any good ones left? svg? that italian guy from the spurs?

what really vogel is good

tho i guess bird is an avowed adherent to the coaches have a shelf life school of thought

well, he is pretty good. he's got the 4th longest tenure of any head coach now and his teams always have top notch defensive cohesion. he gets along very well with the players and has shown that he can change the playing style of the team over a single offseason.

but the pacers have consistently struggled because vogel is so unimaginative offensively. there's no smooth transition between sets - if the first play gets bogged down, the second option is either an iso or a p&p. i don't think he can coach a team to the finals. hopefully he can be the mark jackson to someone else's steve kerr.

might be worth giving him a chance with good offensive players tho

don't think many other coaches have won so much with so few high picks

vogel might not have the best offensive talent, but its still misused. the pacers were 24th in ortg this season

about what i would expect from a team that had to play a ton of mins w dudes like ellis and mahinmi!

anyway this apparently has legs, the pacers are nuts to let vogel go

otm

indy has zero guys who can get to he cup
