2017 NBA Offseason Thread

[TJL]

Shut the F&*$ up you freaking cry baby!

You will embrace your purity Miss LAD. Seek the resonance of your perfection, ascend towards The Nexus

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

No I'm around. I'm a little sad there's no more basketball...excuse me NBA basketball.

I keep watching the Finals over to get my fix.

Summer League should be pretty Interesting too with all the PG rivalries.

 

[LAD]

That was the joke

When you have to tell people it was a joke clearly it wasn't a good one.

 

[Bolts]

Don't worry.

He will take half the money to play elsewhere. Like Anywhere else.

That's sometimes a good thing(FA taking less to not sign with the Kings) because the Kings will go after the wrong FA's, this is one of those times.

 

[Bolts]

I would love to have him or Gallo.

If they keep Blake and CP3, Gallo makes more sense. Without Blake Millsap would make sense. He's too old for the Kings though, you can have him.

Yeah.

I like Millsap a lot, but he is not a lead dog on a good team. Would like to see him get a shot as a 3rd option on a contender. He has a nice skill set.

Harden and Blake would be a great lob combo, bit Blake really should go to Boston. He is the missing piece over there. Not sure he really fits Houston's style that well.

Big News on Reddit.

Blake started following Isaiah Thomas of Celtics today on Twitter. (or some social media site, I forget)

So that proves it -- Blake will become a Celtic.

 

[Bolts]

I've been a fan of his and think he's pretty underrated, but the Kings need to focus on the youth movement and signing a 32 year old for 3-4 years doesn't make sense. The only high priced FA they should consider is Otto Porter, he's young enough to be in the core of their future and if they take Fox 5th the SF spot will still likely be wide open. I don't think they have a snowballs chance in hell of getting him, but he'd be the one to target.

Isaiah will keep him locked up at his house until Blake signs with Boston, it worked for Deandre.

Fack No....

I'm proud of you...for keeping this clean!

 

[DJ Fieri]

OJ Simpson has an upcoming parole hearing....

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Lakers made a big free agent signing....

 

[DJ Fieri]

Brian Scalabrine is coming out of retirement.....NBA title!!!!

Hey now!

Don't take my Otto!

Seriously though, he is restricted, so it will come down to whether the Wizards want to match the max or near max deal someone like the Kings will surely offer.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yesterday was much more exciting....

 

[larryjohn]

Will Danny pick his son ... or Gordon Hayward ?

GOP candidate Tanner Ainge on Jazz star Gordon Hayward: 'I hope he stays'

I'm thinking he chooses Gordon.

I saw that. Interesting development for sure.

 

[LAD]

I Thought So Too.

But, That Tweet Was From 6 Mins Ago From The Editor Of LakersNation....

Maybe It Got Hot Again?

He's saying a 3 Team trade with Love leaving the Cavs...

Cavs would be smart to dump Love & get someone with fresher legs & a back that's intact.

 

[larryjohn]

I saw that. Interesting development for sure.

Blake's Twitter update ... plus Hayward's infant son's shirt (Shamrock) -- proves Danny signing a couple of studs.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Wasn't Heyward's wife sporting Celtic colors on social media a while back?
