brad beal one of the most ????? guys in nba history to me, incredible talent who made a zillion dollars doing nothing while playing with no one on a nothing franchise, like some ABA guy whose name you stumble on and go “huh weird this dude averaged 26 ppg for 7 years for … buffalo?”

ehh feel like theres a couple good players like that per generation that are happy to just be the franchise guy

They only have one next year (the best of their own and the Clippers).

I imagine they'll need to keep kicking some of them down the road?

hey when you've got a guy coming off a season where you missed half the year and had a career-worst shooting from 3, youve gotta make sure and wrap that guy up for a quarter billi before the knicks try some funny business

offhand i think there are 3 options, 4 if you're feeling spicy, but it would be fun to open it up to all of course

dont agree that okc will get less value back because they have to many picks. picks are a finite resource so if anything they can drive value up via cornering the market
― micah, Thursday, 7 July 2022 01:50 (one year ago) link
well now i'm talking about it so i might as well do it worst-run NBA franchise as of the 2022 offseason

cannot get over this Bradley Beal contract, it reminds me of MLB 10-15 years ago when teams would sign 30 year old overweight sluggers who can't play defense to these insane 9 year contracts even though players fitting that profile almost always declined after 1-2 years and would usually become unplayable after 5. but the GMs wouldn't give a shit because they knew if they didn't turn things around fast they'd be fired anyway. actually this whole offseason has reminded me of that. they're making moves as if they knew the world was ending next year

Woah if this is where the Nets are at in terms of a trade
Report: Nets asked the Timberwolves for Karl Anthony Towns, Anthony Edwards, and 4 first round draft picks for Kevin Durant, per @VinceGoodwill Minnesota had no interest in a deal. pic.twitter.com/aPXSre1ud0— Top Ball Coverage (@TopBallCoverage) July 7, 2022

How about a three team deal where the nets get Doncic and Embiid and the mavs and sixers get KD for one half of the season
― Heez, Thursday, 7 July 2022 15:33 (one year ago) link
xpost from the press conference, I get the sense they made some calls on bigger stars prior to gobert so I wonder if it had the effect of making the gobert deal more reasonable
― Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 7 July 2022 15:46 (one year ago) link
seems like maybe the nets are going to pretend to try to trade kd then be like oh well well have to play this season out and hope it goes well enough that everyone wants to stay
― lag∞n, Thursday, 7 July 2022 16:09 (one year ago) link
either that or they really think the gobert deal one of the craziest overpays in the history of the league is "setting the market"
― lag∞n, Thursday, 7 July 2022 16:11 (one year ago) link
i mean i think they could get a gobert type deal but they cant get a based on how much better kd is than gobert type deal

would be funny if they make a nice run with kyrie being a perfect citizen then they resign him and he goes back to his old tricks

does Kyrie have a catchphrase in this spec script?
