2020 nba offseason draft free agency etc

Dwight to the Sixers, that'll be fun

Dwight announced he was staying with the lakers and then signed with the 6ers 30 minutes later

Always such a prankster, that Dwight.

Wolves giving Malik Beasley 4/60 after his offseason behavior just seems like a completely doomed decision

Christian Wood is close to finalizing a three-year, $27 million contract with the Houston Rockets, according to a source.

wait so the pistons paid plumlee 8M+ and wood signs for a little over 9?

uh what

figured these numbers would be broadly lower than this bc of you know

really bizarre sordid history between the rockets and pistons over the last 72 hours

My understanding is that the Pistons currently have 6 centers

that is a normal number of centers, find a new slant

that's a big contact for beasley

gotta lock up your 4th guard

rodney hood back to portland, 2 years 21 mil

coming off an achilles tear this seems not ideal

whoa!

Montrezl Harrell is planning to sign with the Lakers for two years and $19 million with second season being a player option, agent Rich Paul tells ESPN

joe harris stays for 4/75, bertans stays for 5/80

bertans has achieved many years

starting to seriously wonder if the pistons have a trade for blake griffin lined up

Definitely think the campazzo and grant signings aren’t coincidental

second year is a team option i think

More Goran Dragic to AP: Jimmy Butler called him last week and (half-seriously, we think) suggested physical violence could be coming his way if he didn't return to Miami. "Jimmy's a tough guy. ... I didn't want him chasing my ass," Dragic said.

3/60 is a lot and I’m not positive I would have wanted to give up that much but it really fucking sucks to see grant go

smart people suggesting a blake griffin sign and trade is what's going on here

christian wood upgrades to 3/41M with the rockets as part of yet another sign and trade

Yeah kev 20m a year is too much and it’s better to say no. I think they knew this was happening and a guard is getting dealt.

FYI The reported deals for Grant and Plumlee are exactly enough to do a sign-and-trade for Blake Griffin.

— John Hollinger (@johnhollinger) November 21, 2020

The Blake Griffin sign and trade would be amazing and worth a shot maybe? I would definitely have to think about it

hoo boy as someone who suffered through secondary fandom of the cp3/blake clippers era I have to say no to that one

Deal expected to be completed with a sign-and-trade via Detroit, per source. https://t.co/TALHbm9OlP

it's a very interesting idea as far as building an unstoppable offensive team but i think it just swings the balance too far towards offense. did they forget the series they just played where they had to guard lebron?

nice get for the blazers

the pistons are having one of the most bizarre offseasons i can remember

i just looked up who their gm is to try to understand whats going on but it didnt really help

sam presti protege iirc but can't see much presti in these moves

As Rockets/Wizards talks on Russell Westbrook-for-John Wall stall, Wall has made it clear he wants trade out of Washington to happen, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) November 21, 2020

hahahah bro maybe play some competitive basketball first

yeah he was in the thunder org for a decade+ before being hired by the pistons in june xp

so he is a new guy

love to sign one of the biggest contracts ever then explode my achilles before it even kicks in and then demand a trade

Chris Paul laid the blueprint for playing yourself into tradability with a 45m contact. Russ has much to learn.

xp like what could he possibly even be unhappy about?

And wall, sorry ready that wrong

does he personally dislike davis bertans?

Washington has reported that they, would also like to trade John Wall.

— Russillo (@ryenarussillo) November 21, 2020

lol yeah

Apparently jerami grant signed with the Pistons because they promised a bigger role for him..... but they’re keeping Blake Griffin?

normal stuff
