2016 NBA Off-Season Thread

We're going after Dwight Howard next. Stay tuned.

Pau>Horford>Monroe>Biyombo>Howard

Robin is ok but he is overpaid IMO but I guess Rose was as well. I think they just wanted Rose out of Chicago not caring what they get. I guess we will see.

It works well for both teams actually. Rose is a 1 year rental and they have cap space next summer.

Lopez is making 12 million and that won't be that crazy with the cap going nuts this summer.












Holy shit.....I didn't know the Knicks threw in Calderon's dead carcass.

 

[Krispy Treat]

I know it looks bad, but I just want to win more than 32 fucking games lol.

I take 45 wins and a 7th-8th seed

I LOVE FREE AGENCY!!!!

































Not much more work will be done the rest of the week.

Phil should be on the phone with Gasol. He's the best option.

He's not going to be overpaid this summer when the cap increases to 94 mill. He'll be a freaking bargain.

I keep forgetting about the cap and he is only 28.

Well, Bulls fans have to embrace the tank now. It's a tough process but hey, it's all worth it if you luck into a top 3 pick

Exactly.....I'd rather have a year of Rose than a year of Calderon.

Yeah, when Biyombo might get 17.....not a bad deal.

But, if it frees up enough cash to land Pau or Horford it's a good trade for the Knicks.

Thought he was going to be okay when he brought him but he's been a bum.

 

[DJ]

I really understand Pau may want to win but Phil HAS TO FUCKING CALL HIM AND DO HIS DUE DILIGENCE.

 

[RazorsEdge]

Just got out of Chuck E Cheese and saw the trade. Welp, we traded Rose for a ham sandwich but he is off the books, and I actually like Lopez. Not a bad deal all in all, still a sad day if one was ever a fan of Derrick.

Thanks to whomever posted the fake Woj acct. i almost fell out of my seat reading the Heat might trade for Butler. LOL.

Im hearing from some "inside" sources that Durant to Knicks is a really big possibility.

MEEE lol

Some guy posted it on Hoopshype so I just copied the link real quick without even looking. That's some funny stuff but what if the Heat did get him somehow...lol

The Sixers are interested in Clarkson.....I wouldn't pay more than 10 million per season for him. The Sixers may offer him a huge deal since they need a scorer.

 

[ericd7633]

Great deal for the Bulls IMO. Calderon is a much better fit in Hoiberg's offense than Rose ever was. And is serviceable for a one year stop gap. In terms of effectiveness there wasn't a big gap between Rose and Calderon last year anyway, and Rose had much better players around him. Calderon can actually hit a jumper too. Grant didn't look great as a rookie but maybe he'll take a leap forward next year.

 

[avalon2423]

The problem is the Heat dont really have anything to offer the Bulls. except maybe Dragic and McBob. All we have on the books are a couple young guys going into their second season. They have promise but not enough to make a trade like that.

Is he a Free Agent or would this have to be done via a trade?

He's a RFA. They can offer him a loaded deal and the Lakers have the right to match it.....or not.
