simons deal seems high yeah but they think he's a borderline all-star, i don't think it's worse than the brunson deal and there's not a 4 way logjam at combo guard the way there was w/ cj and norm around

pj tucker deal making me sad ngl, he’s too cool to be on the sixers

Free agent Victor Oladipo has agreed to a one-year, $11 million deal to return to the Miami Heat, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

I think the simons deal was meant to forestall his getting an offer sheet from another team that functioned as a poison pill for the blazers to swallow, since the blazers have made it absolutely plain they wouldn't let Simons walk and would match any offer.

Free agent guard Jalen Brunson, armed with a five-year, $106M-plus Mavericks offer, is headed into a meeting with the New York Knicks within the hour, sources tell ESPN.

pretty depressed about the deandre jordan thing

i know its a vet min contract but he is utterly washed

claxton 2/20 nets
lonnie walker 1/9 lakers
tate 3/22 rockets
dedmon 2/9 heat
nurk 4/80 blazers
trou brown 1/minimum lakers

deandre shoulda been out of the league 4 years ago lol

lonnie leaving was inevitable, but him signing with the lakers hurts a lil bit

*lonnie 1/6.5

lonnie leaving was inevitable, but him signing with the lakers hurts a lil bit

its always weird when a spurs pick/prospect doesnt pan out

he showed some signs of being a great 6th man when derrick white was traded. i think he averaged 17 ppg after the deadline? he's always had great athleticism, he's just a mess on team defense and doesnt have a strong enough handle to be a lead guard. but he'll make some plays that will leave you speechless and can get hot from 3. i hate to say this but i think it was a good signing for the lakers.

the writing was on the wall for lonnie when the spurs drafted 3 guys who play his position in two summers, tho

yeah thats the kinda guy the lakers need to take a swing on

tyus jones 2/30 grizz
house 2/8.5 76ers
damian jones 2/cheap lakers
boucher 3/35 raptors
patty 2/14.5 nets

JTA to the lakers

javale 3/30 mavs

3/20*

4/49 for portis is the craziest one so far

really? seems about right to me

was gonna say, his value in the playoffs is hard to overstate and hes only 27

15/9 on 48/39/75 in 28 minutes and was a big part of the championship run

Lonnie Walker was one of the NBA's worst defensive SGs last season, all in a Low Activity defensive role guarding nobody.@The_BBall_Index metric grades among 1K+ minute SGs this past year:

On-Ball D: F
Ball Screen Navigation: F
Off-Ball Chaser D: C+
Help Defensive Activity: D- pic.twitter.com/DBAGwnjLTX

laker fans despondent in the comments lol

xp it is? he averaged 10/10 in the last playoffs and doesn’t have a defensive position.

he was pretty booty this last playoffs yah. 12 per year for a rotation guy is fine tho.

He gotta be hilarious in locker room and he cut hair and mix a good drink https://t.co/QnsXjiKdtH

portis is a big man who can shoot and plays with energy is how i break it down more or less, also a fan fave over there

haha i came to post that deandre stat. unreal

the only big who might be worse now is haslem, but we'll never know since haslem hasnt played since 2015

JaVale McGee told ESPN that he expects to be Dallas’ starting center. He will reunite with head coach Jason Kidd and assistant coach Jared Dudley, who were part of a Lakers’ title run with McGee.

they are not a competent franchise. drafting dirk and luka has covered up a LOT of failure.

the portis contract doesn’t strike me as insane in a vacuum but for a team that needs to hit on lots of moves on the margins it feels like an overpay to me. he was *fine* in that celtics series but ultimately seemed quite limited for what that series was

claxton getting 2/20 and javale getting 3/30 is bizarre

the cap mini-spiked this year, teams are flexing a little bit today

javale was 3/20 i did a typo

they are not a competent franchise. drafting dirk and luka has covered up a LOT of failure.

thank you for your honesty spottie

we’ve debated this ad nauseum but finney smith & brunson were two of the great player development stories of the last 5 years and were a huge factor in them making the west finals.

yeah but then they were too cheap to keep the guy they developed lol
