Oooo boy that's a lot of dough for Harris, who was a no show in the playoffs. Also makes you think if they were willing to give 5 years to him, that must mean Butler is out the door.

If that's true, then Philly really should look for sign and trades. Recoup some shooting they lost in Redick. If they can get good pieces back and still convince Horford to come, they can still be favorites in the East and possibly Finals

They may be forced to sign-and-trade with the Heat (if that's where Butler wants to go).

 

[DJ Fieri]

Rudy Gay returning to SA.

 

[jontaejones]

Damian Lillard can support 1000 people a year at a middle class lifestlyle for the next 4 years.

 

[Heatles84]

The gamble paid off.

We can give them Richardson and Waiters.

Also there are no opt outs in that Harris deal.

These guys are getting paid ridiculous.

Imagine being a superstar in the NFL to see guys who are not top 20/25 players in the NBA getting this type of money. Must be sick

THIS is the exact type of role player thing I was talking about in my Lakers post earlier. My wish list is going up in flames.

 

[tlance]

Because, you're a great guy I could get you a seat on the Lakers bandwagon.....also Ariza played for the Wiz and Lakers so I'd def get you in.

So you saying I should root for the Kings?

They'll complain and then fold like paper in the next lockout. NFLPA is the worst union in sports

Yup. NFL guys also have to split the salary cap over 53 players while the NBA has to worry about 15 players per roster. And the NBA can go over to sign players, NFL I believe is at a hard cap. Pretty sad. Oh, and NBA contracts are guaranteed.

[Heatles84]

So Ramona Shelbourne reported that Dolan (Knicks owner) was not prepared to offer Durant the max.

Knicks fans are going to riot and hang that dude.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Best free agents left... Kawhi Leonard Jimmy Butler Al Horford D’Angelo Russell (R) DeMarcus Cousins Julius Randle Kevon Looney Robin Lopez Patrick Beverley Danny Green Marcus Morris Seth Curry Justin Holiday Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Kelly Oubre

WE ARENT EVEN 75 MINUTES IN YET

[Retroram52]

Yea, bksballer. Alot of NFL players have been bitching about the NBA and MLB players getting ridiculous amounts of scratch for kids games.

 

[bksballer89]

 

[wildturkey]

Screw it. I hope the Lakers sign Boban for 20 mil

 

[DJ Fieri]

Mike Scott got 2 years and almost 10 mill to return to Philly.

They don't have much of a footing to work with, unfortunately.
