2021-2022 NBA Season

We don't but had they waited closer to the deadline then who knows

The only thing I can figure is the uncertainty was holding up other deals. It’s either that or they are stupid.

How did the Sparks get Liz Cambage?

When did that happen?

Looks like it just happened. I hadnt seen or heard anything, so I looked it up. This article is about 8 hours old.

WNBA All-Star Liz Cambage agrees to join Los Angeles Sparks, per report

The former Aces star reportedly made a verbal commitment to join Los Angeles

They didn't wait till the deadline.

That's kind of it. If there was anything close to that offer, they don't pull the trigger that fast.

 

[tlance]

Everyone in this thread saying this, and I did too, how do we know there were better offers?

I am guessing teams like his potential, but his health issues limit his trade value.

And his contract is fairly neutral all things considered. He is definitely a valuable asset, but not the type likely to return much more than what the Pacers got.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Garland out again tonight- with basically no Pacers starters playing hopefully it wont be a big deal.

The Pacers are playing some great defense....

Pretty sure Sabonis is a starter.

Can’t speak for others the value is what he goes for. What I was saying is that is shocking to me his value was that low. I don’t get it. At the same time, for a rebuild when they’re already turning over assets an expiring deal does have a ton of value.

Probably not many offers, so no competition, gotta be. LeVert does have a bad history of injuries and not many teams had a $18M contract like Rubio they could just throw at teams. Plus the Cavs have a ton of valuable 2nd’s and those can add up

 

[704Tarheels]

Forgot about this guy too.

@704Tarheels ?

Y'all got smoke in the locker room?

Melo has been benched for long stretches the last few games and now this?

Coach better tighten up.

I haven't heard much locally about what went on there, but I agree it's not a good look.

Definitely a little nervous to see if they can stop the bleeding a bit with 2 tough games in a row on the schedule.

Yah.

I mean- who else would have been in on it and offering what?

Rubio's substantial expiring contract, and a first round pick- what contender has those things to offer? Add in a high 2nd round pick, and I just dont see where else a potential deal was likely to come from.

She said some shit about Vegas paying Becky Hammond 4 x's what the players get and then hauled ass to the Sparks.

Wow.

Yeah, looks like the Aces had decided not to bring her back. Not sure if it's because of her comments or not.

Ain't gonna complain either way. lol

She's really good.

But, she has issues.

I won't get into a long rant on race relations.

But, if you know any biracial people, they sometimes have a really hard time fitting in.......anywhere.

From what I understand, it's even worse in Australia.

Girl has a lot of anger.

But, when she's focused, she has the size and skill to be a top 5 player........EASILY.

Luka picked up his 5th foul. Poor coaching by Kidd

Fuck.

That was a garbage call but I get your point.

Now Brunson with 5. Kidd is really stupid

I think trades are coming.

Hopefully, she can get a handle on her issues.

It cab be tough for bi-racial folks. Years ago I dated a bi-racial woman black/white and I remember her saying that she never felt fully accepted by either. Especially when she was younger. She still struggled with it a little as an adult. I remember she used to worry about my friends and family until one of my best friends told her that they all liked her more than they liked me. lol

Clipps vs Bucks on NBA TV. But an 8pm start.

PST, then the MST and now CST. Late starts suck as I get older.

yep it was a trae flop. Can't stand that guy
