It's risky enough having Griffin or Gallinari as one of the focal points of your offense, but both, yeesh I'm going to be nervous every time I watch a Clippers game

attackmole posted:Yeah he was the defensive glue. I'll be stunned if the Raptors are not a 50+ win team again. No real issue with 2Pat. One of my fave memories was in the playoffs a couple years ago against either the Pacers or Heat, when he hit a three in front of their bench and flashed the three sign and did a hockey goal celebration floor swipe. He was a glue guy but he got hurt and Tucker ate his lunch. He has never been a good rebounder but he does hit threes at a good clip but last year he seemed to miss all the ones at the game's big moments. My personal basketball hell is 2Pat and Carroll missing open 3s forever. If Masai can dump JV. The defense will be one of the better ones in the league.

Following the offseason here is exciting  Especially now my good good Timberwolves are looking like a team that'll be even more fun to watch!

Apart from the odd Lou Williams heat check game that Clippers team is going to be boring as gently caress to watch unless Griffin remembers how to dunk over cars again

Kinda hard to get excited for this upcoming Heat season when it looks like the best-case scenario is that they bring the same team back from last year.

I dunno, they're at least in a really good position to go bargain hunting, pick up guys on excellent deals, and get some ammo for trades + assets from salary dumps Edit: Or not, I guess they're already at $93M? How were they bidding on Hayward?

I expect that in discussions with FAs it's ok to "bid" without having the cap room cleared up if you can show a viable path.

gnoma posted:Losing Hayward sucks. Now the tension as a Jazz fan is waiting to see Shelvin Mack sign somewhere else so Snyder can't keep giving him minutes. If Exum/Hood/Mitchell are given a chance to show something and take steps forward then maybe next season won't be the worst. Favors not being at 40% all year with whatever injures would also be a boon. They haven't been shy about playing Hood, he just keeps getting hurt. And they've tried to give Exum chances but he's so terrible offensively it's hard to justify, especially when you're a playoff team.

That $93M apparently also included Bosh, who I guess is getting (at least partially) wiped

https://twitter.com/tribjazz/status/882474920587821057 Hopefully this is just his agent using Utah for leverage because the Jazz really do not need to overpay another 30 year old coming off a flukey career year.

They were probably the 4th best team in the conference by the end of the year. Crappy start kept them out of the playoffs. With the Bulls, Pacers, and Hawks on the way out, they're at least a lock for the playoffs and have a good chance at making the second round. They also should have some money to go after Rudy Gay or CJ Miles.

I was a bit harsh on Patterson but like Danny said he really did miss every big shot last year. I also think those plus/minus stats are a bit misleading because they're more of an indictment of the team not having an actual 4 until they traded for Ibaka/Tucker. Like when Pat wasn't in the game Casey was playing a broken Amir Johnson, Pascal Siakim, Poertl, Bebe, Carroll, or Chuck Hayes. Being the best front court defender on the Raps wasn't too hard except (minus that month when Bismack played out of his mind).

Yeah, our starters were actually really good together last year (I think one of the top five in the league? I feel like that's too high but it's what's in my head) but our bench was God Awful

Wouldn't it be a bit of a logjam with both Horford and Gasol? Although I'm not sure how they'd make the salaries work without giving up Horford
