2022 NBA Offseason thread

Well...Pelinka is pushing for it and sounds like Irving is trying to land there.

Kyrie has no leverage. The Lakers best shot is to hope that they are still the only team that is interested. If Kyrie is really going to focus on forcing himself to the Lakers, that will help to keep other teams away. But if anyone else decides to take a flier, they will be able to beat the Lakers best offer.

LOL...I just can't see JaVale McGee in a cowboy hat.

Lots of value FAs still remain. I wonder if Markieff Morris will make a return to the Lakers for another one or two-year deal. He played quite well for the Lakers in the Bubble Championship year (2019-2020 season) and the following season. If Griffth is not on the radar, then maybe the Lakers will wait to the G-League is further along to find a youngster who fits their new youth and athleticism approach.

Durant is penciled in on the Suns roster…

Dallas apparently wants him.

I would like him....he was pretty valuable to that team.

Why?

There are just as many cowboys in Denver as Dallas.

If they are willing to risk him leaving after 1 year, they will be able to easily beat the Lakers best offer.

He’s still taking a lot less money to go to la vs resigning gif bird rights but yeah not as much as this year

[Shanemansj13]

Idk why the clippers don’t.

Picking wall to use your mle on is a choice, especially costing you hartstein.

100%

I would send them Simmons but based on their draft history that doesn’t seem like a punishment lol

If that is the case, he loses money wherever he goes. The Nets arent interested in re-signing him. Sounds like they didnt even want him to opt in.

Should be easy to trade him at mid season if he behaves

Minimal risk to another team as an expiring contract
