2018 NBA OFFSEASON

the whole thing w/ the wolves is very weird... they would've been a top 4 seed had jimmy not gotten hurt and yet everyone seems to hate it there

MCW to the Rockets who somehow have managed to get worse. And they still havent locked up Capella.

wolves thing is sad, they seemed to be on a perfect trajectory. blame thibs i guess

i don't get defaulting to blame thibs at all. their good players (non-butler division) should consider, like, trying more often

Looks like Cleveland is going to have to find a new basketball player

KAT seems like a pretty immature kid for sure. Wiggins just doesnt seem to care much about hoops?

giving thibs personnel powers was really dumb

They should have player captains and let them pick teams every year

Butler and Kylie on the Knicks next year

I’m...not sold on boogie being terribly important

He is an outrageous talent but also a guy who spends entire defensive possessions not crossing halfcourt trying to come back from an often career destroying injury

I will happily eat this post in June 2019 when the box score of gm 4 wcf Rockets vs warrior reads curry (dnp- sprain) Thompson (dnp- nut punched by cp3) Durant (dnp- flu) green (dnp- suspension, 15th technical) cousins- 45pt 23rb 9ast 5stl and they win

celts already passed on a jimmy trade at least once

was mostly of a timing issue iirc, butler if anything is a prototypical ainge type

tho on the other hand this prob makes it more likely that the celtics trade kyrie, if its more important to him to be with jimmy than be on the celtics obvs thats gotta give them pause

The Philadelphia 76ers are in close discussions on deal to acquire Denver Nuggets forward Wilson Chandler, league sources tell Yahoo.

— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) July 3, 2018

it was time for the nuggets to move on from him for sure.

like 3 years ago

good pickup for philly prob

if it’s reasonable for philly to basically design their team to counter boston you’d want a lot of depth on the wing

But you want those people to be good

chandler has the best ink

i can’t believe i lived to see the day where wilson chandler gets traded.

What’s next... Faried???

no...

Shams Charania, NBA Insider for Yahoo Sports, believes the LA Clippers may have a better shot at landing superstar free agent Kawhi Leonard now that LeBron James has joined the Los Angeles Lakers.

“I dont think Kawhi is jumping for joy now that LeBron is a Laker. If anything, he’ll be more open to joining the Clippers.”

amazing

I hope that happens.

same

it's very important that as many players as possible change teams each offseason

Exum 3/33 to stay Jazzed

I don’t hate the clippers roster so far

There’s 1-3 giant all star shaped holes in it but it’s not bad for a collection of solid guys and role players

good one for the jazz

Dwight Howard has finalized a buyout with the Brooklyn Nets and will sign a 1-year deal for the tax MLE with the Washington Wizards once he clears waivers, league sources tell The Athletic.

godspeed

and the wiz just signed jeff green to a one year as well.

wall and dwight will get along well

wall, austin rivers, and dwight howard together at last

dwight will never make a good decision, god bless him

On Lowe's pod from today, Kawakami said that the Warriors collectively said no to adding Dwight Howard to their locker room.

feel like maybe the wiz is the true spiritual home dwight has been seeking all these years

imagining dwight doing his schtick to a completely despondent lockerroom until someone kills him or themselves

could def see this wiz roster in a cultish mass suicide situation

markieff and wave papi were both in the top ten for techs last year. they added dwight who was #1

(KD, Dray and DMC all in the top 15)

The Spurs are reportedly asking for Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, Kyle Kuzma, two first-round picks and two pick swaps in exchange for Kawhi Leonard https://t.co/H1UuRTNDQX pic.twitter.com/GJSkWrNNY4

ha nice

fair.

the alternating picks and pick swaps clearly inspired by ainges fleecing of brooklyn

hah that was my first thought
