2017 NBA Offseason Thread

[DJ Fieri]

I'm hoping they can contend in 2018-2019 because they don't have a pick, but that's probably unlikely. Gotta hit on a good player in the 2018 draft.

Nah, I think they are looking at 38-40 wins next season and could compete for the WC playoffs in 2018-2019.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I like the Olynyk signing by the Heat. If they meet the Cavs in the playoffs, he'll rip Love's arm off and beat him with it.

Which would be fun to see.

@WiggyRuss come out and play....

 

[Black Adam]

I am still available.

I am a 5'11", 38 year old slow slasher. I can't guard anybody in the league. My defense makes Isaiah Thomas look like the Glove.

There has to be a market for somebody with that skill set, right? Given all the money flying around, I just want a small piece of the pie.

I don't hate the Vince Carter signing, even though it takes some more possible minutes from younger players. Malachi Richardson is gonna struggle to get PT with Buddy, Temple, Bogan, Carter, and Jackson getting minutes at the 2/3 positions. Kings have solid vets to help teach kids like Fox and Skal what it's like to be a pro, play with toughness, and defend. If the young kids show growth and improvement over the next 2 seasons, in 2019 when Vince and Z-bo's deals are off the books the Kings might be able to lure a high level FA to join their talented young team. I shouldn't get too optimistic about the future though, I have learned the Kings can still fuck things up at anytime.

How many years does he have left?

Like Westbrook, he's already been offered a max extension.

Like Westbrook, he's like ....

Kings, 38-40 wins? I'd be shocked if they won more than 30 games in the West.

Between the draft and FA.....they've had a great summer....

So, Paul Pierce?

Yeah, 3 year deal cool?

Deal!

IT was offered a max extension?

 

[DJ Fieri]

I'm 5-11 and 193 pounds.....haven't played competitively in 4-5 years, but play some intense defense. I'm looking at a 3 year deal worth 9-10 million.

That is right!

I would post her up too.

No, Wall was.

 

[DJ Fieri]

And the definition of "play competitively" is subjective to all.

My bad.....I'm a little intoxicated and not looking forward to walking to the bathroom.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Wiggly has an 80 mph fastball

I know.

@WiggyRuss used to brag about his baseball exploits on Fan Nation.

 

[Black Adam]

Wiggly has an 80 mph fastball

and Al Bundy scored 4 TD's in his High School Championship game...

ah, old war stories...

I don't keep up with this fella as much as you guys do. I take it he hasn't been back here since his team was LeBeat?

good guess. think he tried a couple of times with some flimsy excuses and a left-handed compliment to the Dubs, but saw he wasn't getting anywhere quick...
