2017 NBA OFFSEASON

if u score a basket u get to fall over those are the rules

he was awesome in his prime, much as i wanted dallas to beat them in '06 he was a tank in that series

Hawks are maybe trying to clear space to resign millsap or they're completely rebuilding around the younguns. I hope the latter

hawks should blow it up, they don't really have the makings of a team that can get past the first round anymore

i guess they've kinda blown it up already

having a bunch of money committed to Kent Bazemore and Dennis Schroder is not exactly an inspiring starting point for a rebuild but it's something

Cleveland Cavaliers players have reportedly told Chicago Bulls star Jimmy Butler to avoid a trade to the reigning Eastern Conference champions due to the group's uncertain future following the departure of general manager David Griffin this week.

On Wednesday, Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times reported members of the Cavs who previously urged Butler to push for a deal to join the organization are now telling him the opposite. They are worried about an early "unforeseen early breakup" of the star-studded roster.

lets go lets go

fuckin gilbert

fair

wtf was gilbert thinking not consulting bron

the mood in town is ... not good

people calling in to talk radio saying this the end, our little contender era is over, lebrons out, etc

i really hope millsap resigns in atlanta because nuggets twitter seems to be hoping denver can land him and i am not on board with that at all

i think we discussed this already

millsap seems like a guy who could fall off pretty hard before the end of his next contract

i can't even think of a good fit for him, all the win-now teams have PFs or loftier plans

washington i guess but they're probably capped out

UPDATE:

Just received a call from people close to Kawhi...told me this photo is fake. So there's that. His braids are still intact. #Spurs #NBA pic.twitter.com/m3ARHr5TVK

looks like they cld get there if they got someone to take markieff off their hands

man last offseason was some sort of fever dream of awful contracts

evergreen posts

e.g. mozgov, mahinmi, bazemore, etc. we were all like 'the cap is way up, this is the new normal i guess' but no, the cap is going up even more and yet they all look terrible a year later anyway

I think they just hate Gilbert

i think this is a lot of it but also based on how writers talk about him, people who know griff really really like griff.

gilbert needs to write a comic sans letter to bron claiming griff wanted to trade him

The full story: if Danny Ainge signs Hayward, he risks upsetting Utah voters in his son's campaign to replace Jason Chaffetz. https://t.co/xu0MRPaPUr

what is even going on in the world anymore

LMFAO

hahahaha;dfha;dusifhja;isudfh'asdfs

gold

hahahahah time for danny to prove he is ruthless

also wade was very watchable when he was younger, and even up into his last year in miami really. very unique driver, very slithery and of course crazy athletic. too many mid range j's but hey.

i mean he wld def do it even if it really wld doom his sons campaign no one is doubting that right

+he wld enjoy it

yeah he's got like 10 kids, what does he care

realistically it wld be a good opportunity for some father/son back and forth joshing and prob help the campaign

this offseason is already better than last year's after like 3 days

tru

You ought to be able to win without people whining about Hayward would be my message

Or tell em buck up and root for the cs cuz they're run by a Mormon duh

Now I really want kawhi to bust out a new hairstyle next year maybe a nice round mini fro, last years new hair was a dud, wasn't Jeremy lins man bun the only notable thing or maybe that was a year ago

deandre started doing some things. javale. shump. gerald green.

lebron bald prob gonna be the hair highlight of this year
