2022 NBA Offseason thread

Oh ok.

Basketballreference is starting to piss me off.

Spotrac isn't always 100% either, but I think this one is right?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Hey Brooklyn, wanna exchange expensive PGs?

LOL.

[shopson67]

Yeah.

James
AD
RW (if he isn't traded or whatever players he brings back in a trade)
THT
Reaves (sign him)
Gabriel
Johnson
McClung
Mason Jones

And I'd bring back Melo and Howard as vets off the bench. They can't all be kids and the last 6 I listed above are youngsters. Let Ellington, Ariza, Baze and Bradley walk.

Sign a few vets (at minimum) that can play some defense.

Yeah, my thoughts pretty much. Need a couple wings and a combo forward to fill it out, preferably 3 and D types (as always). If Monk/Melo/Dwight aren't back, more shopping to do...(and a TPMLE in hand).

1. Lebron
2. AD
3. Russ (if still on the roster)
4. THT
5. Nunn
6. Reaves
7. Johnson
8. Gabriel
9. Monk?
10. Melo?
11. Dwight?
12.
13.
14.
15. might leave empty - they have a tendency lol
2 way: McClung
2 way: MJones

Hey Brooklyn, wanna exchange expensive forwards?

I don't have a long commute, but still wish I could work from home to cut back on gas.

My commute before the pandemic was 150 miles round trip. The company I was working for closed down 12/31/19. If it was still in business...it would have been very difficult to keep making that trip with current gas prices (I was spending about $100 a week in gas back then).

During the pandemic, I got my current job which has been work at home the whole time. If I had to go in to that office now, it would be expensive, but far easier financially than if I was still working at the other place.

At least the one they got from the Lakers will play every game. lol

Mine is maybe 20 miles round trip, if that. Need to stay off the highways though as those get pretty clogged up, so it's all surface roads for me.

150 miles is tough. Glad I don't have to deal with that (or real drive time traffic either, since I start at 7:30AM).

Might not be an easy sell to Durant though, lol. Although, he may remember a better Russ than current Russ?

Mine is 17 miles round trip and I’m still telling them to fuck off about coming back in

If they trade Irving, Durant is gonna demand a trade soon after.....

LOL.

I pushed hard to go back into the office. I don't do well with work from home, I need the office. Companies that don't allow work from home are going to be at a huge disadvantage in the future though. I am aware I am a minority on my view

LOL.

Let's figure out a package deal....lol.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

All of you putting words in my mouth lol. I NEVER stated Lebron is enough on his own. As far as rag-tag roster, what roster? Half of it is TBD.

I'm done with this lol.

Okay, I will leave it alone.

And that’s fine

Just don’t ruin for the normal people lol

I do need a better setup at home to be truly comfortable (a roll-top desk just doesn't cut it lol), but I spend 95% of my work day in my office in front of a computer with hardly any interaction. I live alone, so no distractions at home.

Wish I could've gotten a puppy while I was home, would've made housebreaking a lot easier....

 

[shopson67]

It wasn't going anywhere fruitful anyway lol. Plenty of other things to discuss...

Nah

I switched bosses during that time and am happy with my current boss (really easy to work with and casual), but the guy that replaced my old boss has buyers working from home seemingly at least 1 day a week. Sigh...
