Alex Len is a guy who didn't make that list that I think teams should consider giving 9m+ and seeing what Sarver does. Worth the gamble.
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 12 April 2017 22:00 (seven years ago) link
Len would be good at that price, and you could probably count on minor improvement year over year for the next 4-5 years out of him.

Iggy basically said in his interview with Kawikami that he fully expects to stay in GS. Not like an 'I hope so' type of thing but like a 'we've already basically all worked out the details' type of thing.

New York has missed the playoffs for four straight seasons and has lost at least 50 games in the past three, all with Jackson as president. In total, the Knicks are 80-166 in Jackson's three full seasons in New York.

this is true but also the chance that fultz is better than him (assuming that's who you're getting) is still not big enough to take on the risk that he's worse

― lag∞n, Friday, 28 April 2017 16:58 (six years ago) link
wonder who wld trade for him tho since everyone thinks hes just going to the lakers anyway
the lakers
― J0rdan S., Friday, 28 April 2017 17:17 (six years ago) link
maybe the lakers but why not just wait
― lag∞n, Friday, 28 April 2017 17:20 (six years ago) link
unless indy is willing to take pennies on the dollar
well all it takes is one team to seriously bid against the lakers for the lakers to consider making an insane offer
that's basically happened w/ melo and the knicks. they were afraid the nets were gonna get him so instead of waiting for him to hit FA they traded their entire team.
― J0rdan S., Friday, 28 April 2017 18:07 (six years ago) link
injecting magic into the mix makes this more volatile than it prob shd be, tho hes been giving off vibes that hes already got paul in pocket, may be why he was hired in the first place

lol messing around w the trade machine and remembered the moz and deng contracts were for the full 4 years my lord

anyway cld see the lakers giving up randle i guess
tho that wld leave their front court pretty think and obvs george wants to win
― lag∞n, Friday, 28 April 2017 18:15 (six years ago) link
does he want to win more than he wants to go to the lakers, can the lakers convince him theyre ready to win, can they get some other dudes, will their young guys ever do anything, who know
― lag∞n, Friday, 28 April 2017 18:16 (six years ago) link
nuggets will win the nba offseason
― ciderpress, Friday, 28 April 2017 18:18 (six years ago) link
i bet the lakers end up giving up 2 of randle/ingram/d'angelo for him

that wld be very funny
― lag∞n, Friday, 28 April 2017 18:24 (six years ago) link
and then paul leaves after a year cause they suck
cn u extend a guy youve traded for in the offseason

LaMarcus Aldridge and the San Antonio Spurs are engaged in talks on a contract extension, league sources tell ESPN.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) October 16, 2017
― Spottie, Monday, 16 October 2017 19:02 (six years ago) link
why would the spurs do this
get him on a cheaper per year deal thats more in line w his value, makes him tradable?
― lag∞n, Monday, 16 October 2017 19:04 (six years ago) link
he has a player option for $22m next year, maybe he declines it and leaves and the spurs get nothing in return, or maybe he takes it and leaves the year after/has very little trade value cause hes on the last year of his deal, if they cld get him for $15 a year/4 years thats maybe the best proposition for them, tho i have no idea if he has any interest for signing for that kind of money
― lag∞n, Monday, 16 October 2017 19:08 (six years ago) link
maybe theyre just talking and nothing will come of it

unhappy because he has too much money, though?

i think the spurs are better off retaining LMA than hoping to lure another big FA there. it's a dangerous game (as the heat and mavs can tell us).
but idk about locking up the LMA/pau frontcourt for the next 3 years. that's a solid regular season unit but i don't think the two of them can play at the same time in the playoffs.
