2017 NBA Offseason Thread

[Heatles84]

Hopefully they lose to LSU in the college world series.

Since they suck at football now, their fans around here bring up volleyball national titles and the fact they made it farther than us in the NCAA tournament.

If they win the baseball title, they'll be one of 5 schools to win a natty title in the 3 major sports, hope they get swept and eat shit.

They think they're going to flip all of these recruits in football as well from Miami and FSU.

Forgetting to mention that they used to do this to Al Golden (whom they lost to). This isn't Richt. Seriously can't wait until football season.

Disagree on Ingram. I don't mind them giving up just about anyone else though.

Richt at least has us back on the right track.

Thats weird, if anything I would think the Pacers would want that out there, whether it was true or not. In fact, I wondered if it wasn't made up by them from the start. To try to create urgency with LA/Boston.

I agree, and I even thought that the Boston/Indy extension stuff was started by either to make the Lakers nervous

Does that say the Pacers denied rumors about it or denied Denver's and Cleveland's combined offer? Intentionally ambiguous?

That's the way I read it.

LAL offer might have more value, so unless CLE/DEN can up the ante, IND rejects.

More likely that CLE/DEN have no interest in giving up more and IND is using them as leverage to get another piece from LAL and/or BOS, if they're even involved. With the names being throw around, this doesn't sound like 'rental' offers, so a PG extension must be included.

Oladipo got crossed over by a kid.....funny ass video.

Kyler pretty much sums up the whole PG saga well.

No matter who trades for him, he's going to the Lakers if they don't at least reach the finals.

No matter what shit deals are offered, the Pacers are not going to give George away for scraps 3-4 months before the season starts.

Anyone watching the award show and/or the BIG3 premiere tonight?

@LAD

If the Lakes build my hypothetical super team (They will), who do you root for? The Lakes or Warriors super team?

I will root for them both. If/when they play each other I am happy no matter who wins.

 

[LAD]

@LAD were you @?

Girl, tryna stay cool! It was like 100 & hell in Sac the past week.

 

[LAD]

If I'm INDY why do I want to help the Cavs - a team in my conference- by trading our franchise player to them?

Because they are not competing with Cleveland. If they offer the best package, Indy should take it.

Yea, no. See I'm more along the lines of if I'm not competing I'm sure not going to help you compete.

 

[TJL]

Cleveland won't be competing after next year anyway.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Yea, no. See I'm more along the lines of if I'm not competing I'm sure not going to help you compete.

Welcome back!!!!


So, let him walk for nothing?

* See Kevin Durant

.....and Turner is no Westbrook.

So, they have to take the best deal.

Also, I think Bird would rather play George 4 times a year over trading him to the Lakers.
