2017 NBA OFFSEASON

which they wld have the personnel to do def but it takes a lot of effort

i wld definitely prefer hayward and a rebounding big over hayward/pg

my irl celtic fan friends who im in a chat with all get mad at me when i suggest jordan lol

they dont like that he is bad at shooting fts/are traumatized by the 2016 playoffs

theyre wrong hes good

i agree

weirdly ilx poster jordan doesnt like jordan either

family feud

im actually a big deandre fan (fan of any athletic 7 footers who can move their feet on D and catch lobs) but i do think his FT shooting is a real complication for any team with deep playoff aspirations

lots of CP to Houston chatter. I'm not sold on that squad at all. I think after hardens playoff performance I'm just not high on him any more. somethings not right w dude.

agreed. gonna be a lot of cp3 yelling his ass off at harden. dantoni seems way to chill a coach for an intense dude like cp3.

like i get why you stay at LAC: a fifth a billion. SA maybe makes sense if you think that it gets you closer to title contention. denver makes sense if you want to smoke a lot of legal weed.

CP should just sign 1+1 deals like bron at this point.

Owner James Dolan is weighing the future of Phil Jackson as New York Knicks President, league sources tell @TheVertical. Story online soon.

lmao

trade zinger quick

wonder if magic will hire phil to be his valet

I'm seeing some people on twitter concern trolling the Hayward/PG combo come on it will rule

James Dolan is the only remaining owner who could fire Phil here and have it feel like things will get worse. Not even Vivek.

Knicks and President Phil Jackson are expected to announce that they're parting ways early Wednesday morning, sources told ESPN.

looool

YEssssssss

Just announced : Isiah Thomas to step in as new President of Operations.

lol dolan went from caring so little about the knicks that he played the blues the night of the draft to firing phil cause he pretended to trade zinger in under a week

apparently he just extended phils contract by $24m a few months ago my lord

The expectation in Warriors circles, sources say, is that Durant won't formally come to terms on his new deal until "later in the month."

$24m to buy out phil vs. $54m to buy out melo, that's what you call a good business decision.

it was a silly decision to extend phil's contract, but it was an even sillier decision by phil to antagonize the team's two biggest stars and best players in the press for months.

unless he wanted to be fired

if the clippers are getting broken up where does blake end up

houston?

they're already getting chris paul in this scenario they dont have cap for 2 guys

i wish cp was headed to the spurs

paul to spurs blake to houston seems like more of a —cultural fit—

denver wants blake apparently

denvers trippin

its very important that the good players never leave the western conference imo

CP3 to Houston seems like it would sap a lot of what worked about last year's team, but I guess if you're trying to compete with the Dubs, you gotta just stack up all-stars

Knicks owner James Dolan is targeting Toronto's Masai Ujiri to replace Phil Jackson as N.Y.'s President, league sources tell @TheVertical.

good luck jimmy

new york knicks announce hire of new gm david kahn

they should hire griffin and build the banana boat

cp3 to the rockets is the only team that could conceivably challenge the warriors imo

(in the west)

interesting discussion on the last lowe pod about how teams feel it's easier to defend the rockets in the playoffs because you know they're only taking shots from behind the three or at the rim, and that cp3 could conceivably diversify their offense specifically in the playoffs

also everyone thinks the heat are the team for blake if he doesn't resign from what i understand

blake only lives in shorts year round locales

cp3 traded to the rockets

i keep re-reading the tweet bcuz it seems fake...

wow

cant call the rockets boring
