Hand Knit posted:According to Josh Lewenberg, the Raptors offered VanVleet a 114MM extension in the off-season, “the most they could offer him at the time.” I’m curious how this season as its gone so far changed that equation on both sides. I was trying to figure out this was all about and then got even more confused when I saw this tweet https://twitter.com/Sid_Seixeiro/status/1612086933252882435?s=20&t=0G2AinjHE6D7ggca36vSWw I guess more and more people are realizing they are flawed/not executing and now they want a story? Or is the theory that the team is doing this to improve their off season negotiations?

He’s eligible to sign an extension up to that value until the end of the campaign, but considering he can make more in free agency and he literally wears the mantra “Bet on Yourself” across his chest, it’s not a surprise that he would prefer to let his current deal expire before negotiating a new one. Doesn’t really sound like a team leak at all so not sure what that guy is on about

Autism that doesnt render you incapable of living an adult life is much more of a mouthful, and they are such different things in practice that aspergers to me is a much more useful term Its like getting rid of the word ice because the guy who named ice was a pedophile. And we have to call it that kind of water that’s just like one piece and it doesn’t fill vessels. Too many words!

Views: Ben Simmons may only take a handful of shots a game, but he's been huge for Brooklyn and is probably the biggest reason they went from a nearly bottom 10 defense to a top-10 defense.

Yeah I remember Zach Lowe or something trying to give Speed Claxton credit and I was just couldn't help but remember how awful the defense was when he was out there early in the year. He's definitely a good two-punch in a one-two-punch defensive system but he's garbage on his own, Simmons is carrying.

Maybe overstating it a little, but he's becoming like a perimeter, point Ben Wallace. He's a very unique player, and I honestly don't know how you really define his value in a vacuum at this point.

He actually was one of my favorite players in the league before everything came tumbling down. He used to be able to just walk into 18 points ever night without having the ability to shoot though. That part of his game seems to be gone? Maybe it’ll come back? He’s still an amazing defender and facilitator.
