2020 NBA Offseason

[trojanfan12]

DAMMIT!! D'Antoni needs to coach the Pels.

That is the problem with free agency in sports.

Guy plays really well for a few games in the playoffs, then signs a contract for significantly more than he is actually worth and becomes a cap burden to the “winner” of the bidding war.

The best values are always:

1) Max players who are actually worth it
2) players on rookie deals
3) vets playing on cheap deal for whatever reason

don't know what his contract is if he decided to stay but wonder if he'll overplay his hand. Many teams will be saving for 2021 FA and who knows what cap does with no fans for 17 games and playoffs.

 

[dtgold88]

Exactly. And looking at his career numbers he's been in the league for 7 years now. Only once has he started 70+ games. Never averaged 14 ppg in a season. I think he's damn good role player. But some team out there will overpay. There's no doubt about that.

Most years I'd say no doubt, but maybe not this season (for reasons in my previous post).

Here come the rumors...

Bradley Beal Fuels Lakers Rumors After He Purchases $6.8M House in Los Angeles

Washington Wizards star guard Bradley Beal reportedly purchased a $6.8 million house in Los Angeles. “One of the largest homes in L.A.’s hip Venice neighborhood has sold for $6.8 million, according to property records,” Variety’s James McClain wrote.

Heard he went in on a duplex in strongsville with Cowher.

 

[dtgold88]

I agree in part, but players like Kuzma and Green will still have value. Not even close to get a star player though.

Green might be a decent trade chip. Not a crazy contract and expiring after next season. wouldn't rule out being included for a star from a team looking to save money (problem, as you alluded, might be what else they could include).

I want Grant to stay in Denver. But I understand why he's gone. Hope he gets a nice contract.

Cowher got another divorce huh...not surprised.

I wonder if it makes sense to pick up his option of $9 mil+? If he believes in himself, that's what he should do, IMO. go back on the market in 2021 when cap goes back up and more teams have money to spend.

I know what you're saying. But he's one serious injury away from not getting paid. If I was him I'd take the best offer out there.

Likely not gonna see NBA players in the Olympics next year

Silver: Unlikely we'd stop '21 season for Olympics

Commissioner Adam Silver said the next NBA season, which isn't likely to begin until January, at the earliest, is unlikely to stop if it overlaps with the Tokyo Olympics.

agree.....despite a few hiccups, MLB got through a season. True, it is played outdoors, but also twice as many players.

You do realize the decision to exclude fans is more about protecting the fans that the players right? Players need to be protected too, but cmon man.

Thousands of fans crammed in an indoor arena during a global pandemic is a horrible idea.

I'm under the assumption he's referring more to the 60-game season with extended breaks.

@tlance I'll eat some crow today. You mentioned Justin Herbert being legit, I didn't think he'd be good at all. I'll stand corrected on that one, sir.

I am telling you, my friend’s data does not miss on rookie QBs. There is some variance in the middle tier of his picks. But he always nails the highs and the lows. Always.

You all will see in time.

Burrow is definitely starting to get the hang. and of course there was MY dazzling QB...

tellin' ya, you NEED to be in the "Football Team's" braintrust on draft day...

is there a thread with this data?

I thought you were down on Herbert or was that Tua? I know one of those Qbs drafted in round 1 you were not high on how good they'll be in the league
