2017 NBA Offseason Thread

[Black Adam]

1. Iron man

2. Avengers

3. Winter Soldier

i'd swap 1 and 2, but i was never a huge Iron Man fan...

He was pretty good when he was covering the Cowboys for a newspaper in Dallas, TX but has turned into a BS artist.

I don't mind watching his show. Him and Sharpe have better chemistry together than Skip and Stephen A.; whom I'm sure Skip saw was bringing him down. Now First Take's ratings are in the toilet they had to move the show from ESPN 2.

The one thing that Skip irritates me with is his bull shit on Terrell Owens not being worthy of the HOF. Usually I wouldn't care, but the fact that a good segment of the media pick up on it and they're the ones that vote into the hall is pretty bad.

Do you think they pay IT? Call me crazy......I've been called far worse on here......but I think they'll end up trading him.

It's an interesting conundrum... one part that I think folks who guess he might be jettisoned overlook is that he has become a charismatic team leader for the Celtics.

My head says he is a defensive liability that is more a hindrance on our title hopes than a help

My gut says he stays... signs a very big contract but not the max

You lost 3 home games by 90 points.
Were you in a coma or similar?

Hmm..ok. where was Miami when all this was going down? Just keep talking your team up with retroactive speculation.

 

[Heatles84]

What. The. Fuck?

 

[Heatles84]

I'm hoping we can still re-sign Johnson.

 

[Black Adam]

What. The. Fuck?

K, THAT came outta nowhere...

 

[Heatles84]

K, THAT came outta nowhere...

Yeah........as we're in the final year of the McRoberts deal. Now this.

 

[Gman]

Olynyk isn't a bad player... he has a role, and perhaps a little upside left. He is quite skilled... and oh, btw, he's a 7 footer who shoots around 40% from 3 pt range.

His main problems are 1.) rebounding and 2.) toughness.

His team defense is actually decent... although he gives nothing in terms of rim protection.

Yeah........as we're in the final year of the McRoberts deal. Now this.

maybe they see something we don't...least let's HOPE...

 

[Gman]

Yeah........as we're in the final year of the McRoberts deal. Now this.

He's better than McRoberts.

 

[Vyle203]

What. The. Fuck?

How ya feel about that?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Kelly the masher to the Heat.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Mecca, you're right.....Crawford has talked to James and is interested in joining the Cavs.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I love free agency....

 

[Heatles84]

How ya feel about that?

Not great.

 

[Heatles84]

He's better than McRoberts.

That's not saying much.

 

[Vyle203]

Not great.

Lol. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

 

[Gman]

That's not saying much.

You got me there.

Read my earlier post on Olynyk, though... he's not nothing.

He had a great postseason, despite dealing with horrific circumstances.....
