Memphis owner......

Memphis adding Parsons is perfect...exactly what they needed- a volume 3 pt shooter at the wing.

Conley, Gasol, Parsons, Randloph...not ab ad little core.

How should Dallas spend 58 million? Give PG Ronnie Price the max.

Duh.

FUN FACT.

After all taxes, Durant would earn more net pay (16M) from Heat or Spurs, then the (14.5M) he'd make in OKC.

But his team would suck. lol

But his team would suck. lol

True.
Spurs and Heat are hoping to someday be as successful as the Thunder..

Put Durant on either, and that day they become better then the Thunder.
Spurs might already be better....

 

[Scapegoat]

OKC will have a better team than either of them. Spurs are always good. Heat?

 

[OregonDucks]

If Portland can get Pau Gasol, that would be enormous for them!

 

[Scapegoat]

You also fail to mention cost of living.

Spurs and Heat will be worse next season than this season. Cavs will continue to win the east as long as Lebron is in Cleveland.

And amid this "That much for HIM???" let's remember that the typical NBA player is better at basketball than 99% of the rest of the world

If SA lands Gasol......they'll be better. He's the perfect fit for them.

Big If and they still can't beat the Thunder.

Goddamit, you were actually tolerable for the last couple of days. But yeah, given everyone's reaction in the media, I don't think people saw these contracts coming.

And on ESPN right now, they say worse deal of free agency so far is - Mozgov. Shocker.

I figured it would be more guys getting decent raises to help build a team.
It's turning into giant paydays for a select bunch, but teams are all having to lose talent to accommodate it.

Not a big if at all.....He wants to go there because he knows he fits their system.

I disagree with they can't beat the Thunder. They are a veteran team and have a great player in Leonard who can defend KD.

Not to mention their coaching.

Remember Wade been injured a lot.

Which speaks to him being less durable and more likely to start breaking down soon. I don't want to see it happen because I like watching him play, but having less mileage because of injuries isn't a good thing.

Try to stay with me...

Heat depends on Bosh.
Spurs depends on FA.

Point was, though, if either got Durant.
If either did, then the Thunder would be far below whichever team it was.

Delly just got a 4 year 38 million dollar contract with the bucks!!!! LMFAO

No Mozgov, No Delly.

No more titles for the Cavs.

 

[DJ Fieri]

My agent just informed me I have a meeting with the Lakers on Sunday. I shouldn't make plans.

 

[bksballer89]

 

[DJ Fieri]

I saw that. He isn't going to the Clipps.

They would have to renounce everybody except the big 3......and they would have KD, BG, CP, Jordan, and 10 guys from the D-League.
