2019 Offseason Thread

[Black Adam]

Any team with Whiteside does.

lol, guess we know who Portland would rather have...

I don't see AD playing a lot of 5. He hates that position.

He's going to play some, or Kuzma's minutes will be limited.

The Lakers are starting James at PG.

It doesn't matter. He'll play PG offensively, and defend a SF at the other end. Positions only really matter in terms of who you can defend these days.

It just means whomever is the "conventional" PG on the floor will be defending that position and spreading court offensively, not running the offense. In other words, SSDD when you have Lebron on the floor.

I'm sure Cleveland left him with a compelling offer.

Speaking of …...

It's career day in elementry school where each student talks about what their dad does. Little Johnny is last, and finally the teacher calls on him to talk about his dad. Johnny comes to the front of the class. 'My daddy is a dancer at a gay bar. He takes off his clothes for other men, and if they pay him enough money, he goes into the alley and performs sex acts on them.' The teacher is shocked, and she calls for an early recess for the rest of the class. She sits down with Johnny and asks him if this is really true about his dad. Johnny says; 'No, but I was too embarrassed to say he played for the Cleveland Cavaliers.'

That injury usually takes more than just 1 season to recover from, if they ever do....and even if he is just 70-75% of the old Cousins, that's better than what we had last season.

I meant 3 point shooting specifically, he was terrible. And not sure what the Achilles has to do with that

Congrats on Bradley.

Another wing defender.

Not a bad pivot from Beverley if you can keep him healthy.

Dude gets in folks jerseys.

Yeah, I was really happy to see that. He's not Pat Bev, but he might be a reasonable facsimile.

Oh ok....

Bad year. He usually always is fairly decent for his position.

He shot 27% for the Warriors last season, but he's 33% for his career.

33% isn't great, but it's not terrible either.

I doubt the Achilles was a direct cause. It was likely a combo of new system, not having played in a year and not being in shape.

If he can shoot closer to his career average, that will help the Lakers.

Damn, 2k20 doesn't come out for another 2 months

 

[shopson67]

It was actually pretty smart if you think about it. Lebron did the same thing in 2014. Cripple competition while making your new destination stronger.

If you like alienating franchises, go ahead. This isn't his last free agency.
