2017 NBA OFFSEASON

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/20715128/nba-player-salaries-take-home-pay

Would have been more interesting to see some Mid level and minimum contract #s too.

That Canada tax is no joke, no wonder no one wants to play there.

feel like the nba did something a while a ago to make up for that

this yall mans?

i hope the nba lets him wear the hood

that lifetime fitness location has had ridiculous amounts of free publicity all summer.

watching pros play against very good pickup players is pretty awesome, just effortlessly breaking them down w pro type shit

are there good videos? i saw a few clips on twitter

i havent seen like a whole game but there are a bunch of clips out there

there's been clips basically every day but nothing crazy.i rmmbr a good one with faried and Russ but it looked like everyone on the floor was pro. most these guiys are just working on footwork, midrange Js, step backs, shimmy fades, etc just trying not to get hurt but of course Russ is like balls to the wall smashing in the lane full speed lol. not particulary smart given the wall thats like 2 feet behind the bassline.

Myles Turner wasn't joking, Al Jefferson has apparently put in some serious physical conditioning work this offseason (photo via @Pacers) pic.twitter.com/ZkUs7038Uq

i have no idea what i'm supposed to learn from that after picture

what al jefferson looks like in a pacers golf shirt

he was looking pretty hefty last season

iggy was gonna leave over 3 million? damn

still think he was grandstanding a bit

Gonna be honest I forgot big al was still in the league

Iggy article was very good and glad we can add "crashed failed free agent recruitment meeting" to cp3's resume

(I like cp but I also like clowning him, anyone that big of an ass to his own team and all of America in the form of cliff Paul kinda deserves it)

Enjoyed that Dwight article too and totally see how he can be not that bad of a guy and still be absolutely zero fun. Farming would be a good look for him and his hundred kids

Actually kinda hoping one of them becomes a baller so we can enjoy lebron jr dunking on Dwight jr in twelve years or so

the article said iggy's people said cp3's presentation was great!

this seems kinda goofy tho i guess it cld stop the late season race to be the very worst http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/20774528/nba-draft-lottery-reform-rooted-fans-disinterest-watching-teams-tank

Othe article said iggy's people said cp3's presentation was great!

I know it actually sounds awesome that the new guy blasted in and improvised like a half hour presentation or whatever but I just get a little schadenfreude chuckle out of it not working by the slimmest of margins

this is a cool exercise, trying to rank who the best players will be 4 years from now

ha three celtics on that page

theyll be traded for late first round picks by then

rude

its cool how they did it like a draft instead of letting everyone vote on every pick makes it a lil crazier

ziller loves jabari and everyone else is like wtf man

most of these guys seem to not know a lot about basketball but still a fun thing

couple new foul rule interpretations in this thread, feeling em

NBA refs cracking down on two areas this year: 1. "Reckless" closeouts (see Zaza); 2. Shooters creating contact to draw FTs (see Harden)

good

2. Shooters creating contact to draw FTs (see Harden)

this is one of the things i've least liked about the last five years or so since kobe started living off this so i am fully behind this

for real tho, it's one of the least palatable part of so many players' games

Just submitted a post on Kawhi for @FanRagNBA. Wish I could have found space for this awesome @bball_ref stat: https://t.co/kbfVOyP465 pic.twitter.com/K76vfs5pxj

i hope cracking down on shooters creating contact leads to the elimination of the charge !

(the standing stationary charge, which is also related to reckless closing out!)

Barnes has spent the summer working on his playmaking for exactly this reason. He has set an informal goal of averaging three assists per game, he told ESPN.com. "It's something I have to do better," he said.

wow, dare to dream harry
