2018 NBA offseason

[DJ Fieri]

Next summer is going to be even better than this one.

He's where he wants to be.

*Pinches self to make sure this is all real*

 

[DJ Fieri]

That's exactly my point. When has a full-effort Lebron season not resulted in a contender? The Lakers aren't going to be favorites, but they are clearly contenders.

I understand the butthurt that you must feel, given that you abandoned your team over one of the biggest free agency signings of all time. Some Gold Bond might help with that...

@LAD haS always been a Lakers fan.....and since she lives in NorCal..... supported GS also.



It's kind of not you to personally attack another poster.

Having Whiteside and TJ make a combined almost 45M this year is positively brutal.

Cavs do have JR, TT and Hill making a combined 52M so i guess its all relative- but at least JR and Hill are, for all intents and purposes, in the last year of their deals.

Problem for multiple teams was the players wanted all the ‘new money’ thrown in year 1, and teams were required to spend it.
Saving grace is, we already know who is winning the next couple seasons, so it really doesnt matter for most teams.

That's not hard to do. This summer wasn't good at all

Hey, sue me.....the best player on the planet just signed with my Lakers!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[DJ Fieri]

And he'll follow that advice.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if he is healthy has a really good season and cashes in next summer.

Everyone expected Lebron to leave Cleveland. There was no surprise there.

Going to be a brutal game.

The Lakers are not contenders.

Stop it.

You are a playoff Team.

But, as currently constructed, you aren't a favorite to make it to the WCF, let alone the Championship.

LeBron still reigns supreme.

But, last year's Cavs team won a single game against the Warriors in the Finals.

He had a healthy Kyrie and Kevin Love.

You don't have a Kevin Love on your roster, let alone a player of Kyrie's caliber.

If he got the gentlemen's sweep with Kyrie, having sidekicks like Rondo and Lance isn't going to get it done.

I admit that I am rooting and betting against you having any more parades in the near future.

Right now, I feel pretty secure making that bet.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I doubt IT is the same player that averaged 25ppg and 28ppg but if he can be a nice 6th man of the year candidate and average say 17-18ppg and 5-6apg he can get paid handsomely next summer.

Yeah, the backcourt is pretty crowded.

So, he might average a bit lower than that.

But, he should be their closer.

He could easily be their Lou Williams/Eric Gordon.

She's my online squeeze.

She's cool peeps.

Ps. Calling someone butthurt has to be the least lethal form of
" attacking ".

Toughen up, it's just trash talk.

I like the contrary version of Shopson.

Makes for a fun debate.

So, Don't go peeing on anyone's leg for taunting your cyber-bae..lol

 

[trojanfan12]

You are doing that logical thing again!!!!!!

My deepest and most sincere apologies.
