2022 NBA Offseason thread

Just know when she asks you to choose between 2 options and you say "why don't you tell me which I prefer" it may not go over well.

I have told her several times and she always goes with the one I didn't pick.

 

[Mecca]

They need a PG and you knew they were going all in on him when he brought in his dad as an assistant coach.

They need a pg.

Doesn't mean you pay 25 million a year for a guy that should be the 4th best player on a championship squad, at best.

The Mavs have a franchise player.

The Knicks have Randle.

 

[The Q]

Well, they are scrambling to get space to sign Brunson as if he's Steph Curry, Dame Lillard.

Nice player.

Nowhere near a franchise guy.

It's kinda baffling to me, honestly.

I mean, it’s easy.

They haven’t attracted a major fa since…amare?

He was the second best player on a team that made the wcf

The Knicks have all the depth pieces they need. They need the impact guys to round it out.

But yes just Brunson alone is like the Celtics trading Ray Allen in 2007. Sure he’s a good player who helps you, but there’s gotta be another move that moves the needle or you’re just another playoff team.

But they have the first round pick ammo plus skme interesting young guys to make another move as well

If this does happen? What is going to happen with Russ....

The thing you have to understand is that it's a trick question.

That was going to happen no matter which choice you made...lol

You can't win a rigged game.

 

[The Q]

Russ and picks to add role players

But likely needs to be expiring deals so they can create the cap space to resign kyrie long term

I like Quickley..... A LOT.

His playing time evaporates if they get Brunson, Rose and Burkes are not constantly on the I.R.

why it's hard to hold back from saying just tell me which one I want.

They may need to move Burks just to offer Brunson the max

He's gone.

Attach whatever you have to in order to make it happen.

Gotta say fuck the future and commit to Lebron's timeline.

.....and he's injured.

Yeah and not many suitors. Like you said, will have to add picks to sweeten the deal

That is something I am sure they are looking at. They have a lot of PG's before getting Brunson.

Would.they also need to hold off on Lebron's extension until after signing Kyrie?

I would think their books would be clean enough to give him near max in cap if they only do 1 year vet mins this summer.

 

[Mecca]

Fuck this guy...lol

He's a talented player but also a pretentious prick.

Hey, did you see Draymond statement about the Lakers getting Kyrie?

I think so but they'll have that worked out with LeBron withy FA looming.

Yep.

Acted like it would be no big deal but he's a fucking joke after calling another black player a coon.

Burks sucks anyways

 

[Shanemansj13]

No but I can't wait to hear it LOL
