2016 NBA Off-Season Thread

I was ok with trading Rose because I know we need to rebuild and Rose is on teh down fall but I hate that we got nothing really in return. Yes Lopez is a Top 15 center(but he isnt young) and yes we got a young player in Grant(not a fan of) but I rather of got a good young role player and a Pick for Rose.

dude u got robin lopez - not brook lopez....your coach made that mistake too.

Very interesting news. OKC going hard at Horford. WOW that would make OKC scary and if KD resigned.

 

[Mecca]

Im just not a fan of Roy and Moz

Oh, I hear you.

I'm just really interested in seeing what a guy like Ezeli will command.

Noah will never be what he was.

But, I'd risk giving him Big money, short years over signing Ezeli to a 12-18 mil a year deal.

No I know that. Go look at his stats. He isnt a bad player.

This. Noah has proven it over the course of his career.....the only question is health but he's young enough to bounce back. Not like he's 34-36 and on his deathbed.

I agree with that. U at least know what you are going to get from Noah. Ezeli u have no clue and can become a Big time bust.

 

[Mecca]

And he can't catch. Would not want Ezeli or Mozgov for more that 3-4 million, and we all know that ain't happening.

Again, I think he lost the most money in Free Agency with that shit he took in the Finals.

I bet a team like Portland, Suns, Sacto will still offer Barnes the max.

Ezeli will sell out to the highest bidder and that might be the Warriors.

That was funny as shit that Hoiberg didn't know...lol

Him and Barnes but the good news for Barnes is someone will still over pay for him. They will pay on potential with him and hope the finals were a fluke.

Im surprised no one told him he was mixed up. LOL they let him continue to talk. LOL
Now if it was the other Lopez yes I would be very happy.

About a post you made on the other page, I'm sure the Bulls are in the mix with some of these free agents.

They just aren't leaking the shit all over the internet.

He's only avweraged 29.5mpg for his career.

WTF are Thibs minutes? New stat I wasn't aware of? Does Butler have these Thibs minutes also or is it just centers? WTF are all you haters smoking? JFC.

 

[DJ]

Noah has only played in 572 games in 9 seasons. I don't think he's exactly been run into the ground.

He is solid and has been for a few years, especially at that price.

Wish he could have stayed in Portland or NOLA because he played well at both stops.

And an extra 60 in the postseason.

He ran them into the ground at multiple practices a week.

It's pretty well documented.

The Bulls were right to fire Tom Thibodeau, but did it in the dumbest way possible

Scouting report: Bulls ran Luol Deng 'into the ground'

I hope they do something. We cant go into next season with what we have. I hope they trade or Cut Jose and pick up another PG. Also if they really want to start over trade Gibson(market is high on him) and MDJ and get some picks or young back up players to help you grow. Next year we have a shot at 2 1st rd picks(depends on Sac hope they win enough games to stay outside the top 10) and enough money for 2 max players.

Top FA next year:
Curry: not going anywhere
Westbrook: u never know especially if KD resigns. maybe he wants to be the main guy on another team.
Blake:
Antetokounmpo
chris Paul
Gobert
Hayward
Lowry
and so on and so on. Good class
