2022 NBA Offseason thread

[fightinfunbags]

Oof.

I can't logically dismiss your stance.

KD is that Guy and FVV is a all star caliber guard.

Siakam has already been a All-Star and all 3 are champions.

But, Im not ready to put them top 4.

Translation: Dug in

I wouldn’t want it any other way! Opposing voices are money. It tests your bull shit and you either come away more committed or you rethink it. Makes the world go round.

 

[tlance]

But, if Miami got KD? You slot them at 3 and Raps at 5.

No.

They go to 1.

 

[The Q]

I didn't say they all did it right. But LeBron you have to give credit, KD none at all.

Lebron won because of Lebron the player, not Lebron the gm

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

You and I are on the same wavelength, get prepared for the backlash.

LOL.

He doesn't get backlash because he argues with facts not debunkable nonsense.

Lebron won because of Lebron the player, not Lebron the gm

LeBron the GM knew LeBron the player could win in multiple places and he was right.

This isn’t hard

You either want to move Russ or you don’t

Russ
Reaves
2 firsts

For
Kyrie
Harris

Like this ain’t hard

How dare you!

You leave Hillbilly Kobe out of this!

 

[DJ Fieri]

No.

They go to 1.

If KD played 78-80 games, sure. But he isn't playing that many games anymore.

Has only played that many games once in the last 5 seasons. And at his age won't again most likely.

 

[The Q]

LeBron the GM knew LeBron the player could win in multiple places and he was right.

I didn’t mean Lebron moving as much as I meant Lebron telling teams what other players to acquire

Besides bosh (who every team wanted) it’s a bad list

Harris and Maxey plus picks for KD? Ok.

I am talking about odds to win the East.

I don’t care how many games he plays or what seed they get.

Buy out Russ? Signed for league minimum? Shit, I’ll take that dude to run point on the Sixers 2nd team. He can always plow his way to the rim and at least draw some fouls to get you to the penalty. Russ doesn’t blow. He’s just a shadow of 47.5 million of value.

That’s assuming he wants to take a role like that. Kinda doubting that

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Toronto is as deep as anybody also.

I agree that core would have a shot.

I think it might even hypothetically be better than the group that won it in ‘19.

Where do you see them finishing out East with a Durant, FVV a d Spicy P trio?

I know it's tough to know on paper.

But, a guesstimate?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Well, he may be heading to China then.....if he wants to start.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Who is guarding Embiid? Sixers are better, Heat-idk

The freak cell phone injury that causes Joel Embiid to have one eye for the playoffs. Fuck if I know ha. All I know is that the next time the Sixers deliver a healthy Embiid to the playoffs without having a 5 month Covid hiatus will be the first haha. That’s why they’re my Sixers and I can’t have nice things. Same thing with Iverson. I was entertained every damn night but fuck if it led to a banner.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

That’s assuming he wants to take a role like that. Kinda doubting that

Yeah.

I think he's still in the Carmelo/Iverson denial phase.

But, if this doesn't sober him up, dunno what will.

And the level of growth seen in FVV and Siakam from having to carry the load post Kawhi leaves them better prepared to play off of KD and enhance with more in their bag then when they had Kawhi there.

Pull a Marbury and be a star

* See Lebron's 2018 Cavs

 

[DJ Fieri]

I think if you include Barnes you keep Siakam. KD doesn’t want to be there if it isn’t FVV and Siakam. And I may still be talking out my ass. I don’t know how KD sees them. But as good as he was, I don’t think KD is playing the twilight to sign on with a young Buck figuring it out.

Exactly.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Pull a Marbury and be a star

And you know what? I could see RW doing that after the sensitive ass shit he did this season.....like KD.

Talking about his response to the media.
