stashing assets for the 2023 nba offseason

image didn't work, so...

raptors trade:
pascal siakam
otto porter jr.

knicks trade:
julius randle
evan fournier

this trade is successful. you have not affected the winning percentage of either team.

if you try and put julius randle into a trade for value the trade machine breaks itself in protest

you know a trade is good when it doesn't affect the winning percentage of either team

if the heat strike out on dame i like siakam a lot for them & they have enough ammo for that

raptors really dont want to fold idgi. they even got a chip so they shoudlnt be so desperate to ride out the back side of their window once it becomes improbable

trading pascal seems like the the good idea hes older than their other guys and due a huge deal next year, they could get a lot for him

you know a trade is good when it doesn't affect the winning percentage of either team

Bulls VP Arturas Karnisovas on Lonzo Ball: “Our expectation is that he's not going to be back next season"

— Jamal Collier (@JamalCollier) June 23, 2023

if they’re already ruling him out for next season it’s hard to imagine him ever playing again

tbf arturas karnisovas is almost certainly a lithuanian-nationalist assassin

feel like this thread will be pretty chill since there arent a bunch of FAs, and it feels like the few FAs that exist will actually stay in most cases.

there will be a big trade though

its all about trades these days

trades, and hopefully lots of movement amongst rotation pieces that could swing a team one way or another, like the bruce brown/KCP type moves from last offseason.

i admit i am intrigued by the clippers putting out feelers for paul george, and lebron will definitely be texting kyrie to come play with him and ad and 9 lucky new klutch clients next year

oh my god

"I actually don't think LeBron is the GOAT of basketball," Miller said. "I think my GOAT of basketball is Paul George."


Brandon Miller has some very good weird guy energy so far, feel like he's going to be a good ilh content creator

timmy looking very stylish there. also, where is fellow wemby countryman, tony p?

probably in france

fun fact: san antonio is such a warm and welcoming community that nba players want to live here after they retire

Phoenix Suns are moving forward with the plan of keeping Deandre Ayton to play alongside Devin Booker, Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.

— Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) June 25, 2023

it makes sense to see if the new coach can pull out another level from him (unlikely) and/or to increase his trade value a bit (from rock bottom where it currently lies) before the deadline.

This whole game of leaking stuff to sports journos is just us sitting in Plato's Cave watching shadows ficker on the wall. I'm sure Ayton's up for grabs if anyone cares to make the right offer. It's not like he became untouchable in the last few days.

shdve let him go to the jazz thats perfect for him
