Eltoasto posted:PG is at his best when he shoots off of screens. In the few moments that the Pacers had a cohesive offense that got him those shots, he was amazing. Russ was already one of my fave players so the two of them should be a great pair in OKC and it's somewhat of a silver lining to having an org that is dumb from top to bottom. Yeah he's a perfect fit and him not having to he the number 1 for offense or defense is going to be so good

I still remember watching Gordon Hayward stream himself playing Starcraft and callibg everything that happened gay, then apologizing when someone in the chat called him out on the casual homophobia. Good times.

dokmo posted:I am still totally confused as to the Paul George deal. Regardless of what Boston offered, there was at least one other deal offered that was much, much better than what OKC offered. And if the intention was to get him out of the Eastern Conference, I know of at least one offer from a Western Conference team that involved picks and didn't involve Oladipo's terrible contact. I cannot get my head around this. Yeah it's just impossible this was the best they could do, even aside from INSIDER INFO. Thunder won the trade even if PG opts out, that's loving awful. And the East thing is hysterical, you're worried about strengthening a rival when you're at minimum five years from contention and probably that far from the second round? C'mon E2M2 posted:Steph was already underpaid, plus he brought 2 titles to our previously lovely rear end team. Guy deserves it. He's worth it anyway, I'm just skeptical he's gonna have a long career as a star. By the end of that contract you're probably dropping 45 on a guy who's more of a sharpshooter who plays limited minutes and games but who gives a poop, he'll be an ex superstar franchise hero and you'll be sitting on 3-5 rings, you'll feel the same about it as Lakers fans felt about paying Kobe in his dotage Carlosologist posted:https://twitter.com/mikewiseguy/status/881171086699884548 Lol if true Pritchard's team was the only one coming out ahead there what the heck? I mean Denver gets better there but not way better cause that's a trash defense, and I doubt Cleveland improves a bit. hitze posted:Gasol Cousins will be in the mix too, he and Lillard have a rough history with this kind of stuff.

Tae posted:I wonder if they reintroduced contract incentives for all-star berths, more players would be willing to sign with eastern conference teams 5th year 30% max is activated with 1 mvp, 2 all nba, or 2 all-star appearances, so it will lead to bad contracts

Can't walk 'em by the statues like they do in LA, "This could be you! You could be a title-winning legend" Riley gave Wade and LeBron the Gordon Gekko sociopath kiss off (and possibly Bosh too although that's a different circumstance, consequences of the team's PED regimen), they hate him now, so the Heat can't even use the most iconic Heat players in their marketing until maayyyybe 10-15 years down the line. Yes, become a legend like uhh uhh (reading down the list past Wade, LeBron, Bosh currently in medical limbo hell, not on great terms with the team either, ahh, ahh, ahh) LIKE GLEN RICE and RONY SEIKALY ah gently caress it let's hang up pictures of the assistant coach, that'll reel 'em in. I know they're a relatively young team, but all in all I don't see how displaying a picture of their unlikable GM is a good advertisement for the team. then again if PFZ is any gauge then Miamiites hate LeBron and worship Riley so maybe it's for the fans, not for the incoming players. Dexo posted:If any Bull makes an all star game this year in buying their jersey. Just buy the Wade jersey right now then. Even if he gets injured he's going to be near the top in EC fan votes.

belt posted:Yeah, it'd be pretty funny if Westbrook's numbers dropped to how bad they were the last time he played with another really good player on his team. It will be pretty funny when the new superstar on an expiring contract gets the gently caress out after having to play with Russ for a while, just like the old one.

They have plenty of lower tier assets they could have traded that could easily best the OKC offer. But the whole West only thing and way overvaluing Indiania college thing happened. What an awful trade.
