2022 NBA Offseason thread

Demtrius got a better hairline than 'Bron.

There would be no later rounds. Tyson would take out James in the 1st, maybe the 2nd if James is on his bike.

Tyson would hit him with a body shot, 'Bron doubles over and Tyson comes in with an uppercut that knocks 'Bron the fuck out.

I think they will have to deal one of the Williams.

Well, there's no way it's Rob Williams III... so it'd have to be Grant...

... and I stand by my earlier point that the C's are gonna fight for no Grant included.

A player like Grant Williams means a lot more to a championship contender than he does to a mere playoff contender.

It'll be interesting to see what happens... this trade going down at all isn't a foregone conclusion.

Well yeah if they only give White and future picks it's a no brainer imo. Adding Smart is dangerous for their depth with Brogdon carrying the load but they still improve and would need a little more depth. I think if it were this easy, adding a couple more picks would get this deal done...I can see going back and forth though bc Boston wants to keep as many future picks as well but I think if they offer this...BKN still might want another piece. Maybe Robert Williams? Do you still do this deal with flying colors?

Hard no if RWIII is insisted on as part of this deal (in addition to Brown and White)...

... the C's need him too much on their roster, Horford is ancient.

Decent article on why the Nets might fear a deal centered around Jaylen Brown -- because of the need to re-sign him before the '24'25 season:

Why Kevin Durant-for-Jaylen Brown trade would be just as risky for Nets as it would be for Celtics

Brown is almost guaranteed to decline a new contract from the Nets because of the CBA's extension rules

Looked at this way, it's pretty far from a slam dunk that a deal between the Celtics and Nets ends up going down.

Do you watch Locked on Suns?

I have come to realize that most fan bases are completely delusional.

I just watched a video, from today, that says they put their chances of landing Durant at 50-60 %.

Even if the Celtics offer Brown and Smart.

I just can't with some of these people.

Doesn’t look very fluid.

Born in the wrong era unfortunately.

Would be a good move

Would be a good move

Dwight has resurrected his career by accepting that he's not THAT Dwight any more and taking on a lesser, but still useful role. It has gotten him a ring and there's interest in him every off season.

If Westbrook were smart, he'd do the same.

In fairness....DH is a backup big.

RW could be a 6th man of year type if he accepted it. Which he won't of course.

Yeah every fanbase has those.

NBA Twitter is the worst, if you want to troll delusional NBA fans, that’s your go to lol

Doesn't predict well for "unicorn" skills; most of those types are guards with big growth spurts late. Players that big that early tend to be stiff and/or gawky.
