Portland building back nicely.

That's Denver lol

 

[Shanemansj13]

I was surprised they got him back so cheap, nice get.

Well he could miss a very big chunk but a multi-year deal was surprising.

 

[shopson67]

Not consistently or average it but I could see a few seasons where he could hit 70 if he starts conditioning his body better and loses the love affair he seems to have developed with Hollywood.

I think he's just getting bad advice on his training. Too bad Kobe couldn't be mentoring him . . . he would be all over him lol.

God damn it Brad


Good get for Denver

Basically using the savings from the trade the other day

 

[DJ Fieri]

TBD

I think they'll bring him back. They need to, he can help our outside shooting. Can't just go totally young, add a vet or 2. Just not like last summer.

LOL, wtf. Need more caffeine and fewer work interruptions.

Yep. He'd be in his ear.

They typically hold a spot open too. Might convert a 2 way to the active roster (or another Summer League player) as well.

It's funny to compare, these guys are about a decade younger each lol. Have they over-corrected? Is this Ham's influence, shopping for his own groceries?

But either way Denver is looking NICE

 

[DJ Fieri]

Harden's using it to get a longer contract out of Philly though. I think he saw the writing on the wall that his play has dropped off significantly and his earning power was drooping as a result.

He'll be back to 90% of the old Harden. Better shape and a healthier hammy and he'll be fine.

Think he wanted to help the team improve.

They need Murray and MPJ to be healthy.

 

[Shanemansj13]

 

[trojanfan12]

So, he's going to get healthier as he gets older?

Yeah, can't see it.

He's played over 70 games twice in his career.

None while wearing your uniform.

Yeah, at this point, it's like Kawhi and George...you know you're going to lose them for 15+ games per year, you just have to hope that it happens early enough in the season that you can have them healthy for the playoffs and that you don't fall too far off the pace while they're out.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I need a fucking nap.

I am sure you guys saw---- but 3 years 18 mill for Rubio is amazing. I know he cant play till about January this year--- but love that deal considering what some guys are getting.

I'll believe that when I see it.

Definite discount price, solid

 

[WiggyRuss]

They could've afforded that Rubio deal, although who knows if he agrees to the same deal with them.

Rubio was set on returning to the Cavs.....thats what everything I have read said- that he really enjoyed it here and was devastated when he got hurt.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Amazing deal. They got Allen for $20M/year, now Rubio for $6M/year.

If they can get Sexton for $16-$18M that would be a steal. Simons got $25M, Brunson got $27M
