2022 NBA Offseason thread

Udoka is a dog, man.

I always wonder about middle-aged men who get themselves into these types of predicaments.

Keep in mind, I'm not talking younger men. They're just thinking with their d!ck... whatever, it's comprehendible.

But a middle-aged dude? A guy who already has a pretty fine woman... who is having a full-blown affair with another... and is still getting more strange on the side?

Honestly, that would be too much female nonsense in my life. That's phone calls, text messages, dates.... hassle. I wouldn't even enjoy it... not enough good to outweigh all the bad.

That's a major personality defect for sure on him

 

[Stakesarehigh]

He wasn’t even the 3rd, Carr as well

Forgot about Carr lol

 

[DJ Fieri]

Well it does prove one thing, he is a total dumbass

This.

 

[The Q]

This.

Yup

Dude got steak at home and is going trolling for kibble

It's just such a difficult way to build a roster though. It's one thing when you can go above cap with home grown guys like the Warriors have its another to have to sign a star under the cap and somehow fill a roster out.

It's my opinion it's not going to work

If they landed Irving next summer.....they would have a really good trio....even if James showed some decline.....

You can fill out a roster around those 3. Granted, 2 years in a row Pelinka has struggled to do so ....

Not so much this one with Schroder, Bev, Bryant, Jones and JTA.

They would be limited to the room exception, the biannual and minimum contracts for a year

The issue is everyone else has to take min basically.

Any injuries to your big 3 and you have no depth

 

[wildturkey]

Espn and others been real quiet about it

It's ridiculous how little coverage its getting anywhere. It's pretty likely he's getting indicted and I bet there's like a 30 second segment on it and that's it.

Sure....but I think we would get a better group of vet minimum guys than with just James and AD. IMO.

Happy to see this guy got his smile back.

Give me 12 and 7 and I will be ecstatic.

Come back player of the year candidate, after missing damn near 2 of the last 3 years...if we didn't have so many returning guys that are legit stars.

Not just Clipper players returning. The whole damn NBA with Davis, Zion, Murray, Beal, Porter Jr and according to @Mamba KENDRICK NUNN!!!

I agree. Cheated on a girlfriend for a few weeks when I was in high school. It was way too much and all I needed to never do it again and I didn't even get caught. lol

I'm convinced the only reason I didn't was because the other girl went to a different school.

Dude...

In the black community, Nia has been the " IT " girl since she was in Boyz in the Hood.

The fact that he was a NBA scrub, yet was able to handcuff her, was a huge deal 10 years ago.

Seriously, she was like our Black Jennifer Anniston all American girl.

Was she the one who played Tre Styles girlfriend?

The 3 star system only works if you drafted them.

It most certainly has it's draw backs when 1 of your 3 is oft-injured and the other is in his late 30:s.

You need depth.

Speaking of drafting....

Saw something interesting about the next CBA.

Sounds like they are CONSIDERING altering the punitive portion of tax payer teams when its to keep the guys they drafted.

Would make it much easier for teams like OKC, Dubs, Memphis to retain their guys.

Detroit and Cleveland too.

It works, but year one is typically a little rough as you tend to lack depth.

They will need some ring chasers

Yes!

Dude, crazy how many future stars were in that movie.

2 Oscar winners...Cuba and Regina King.

Fishbure...Oscar nom, Golden Globe win.

Angela Bassett....Oscar Nom, Golden Globe Win, Multiple Sag awards.

Morris Chesnut, Nia Long, Cube....

Yep and this isn’t to say he isn’t a good coach but that seems like a wasted chunk of time juggling two women when you could be putting that extra time into coaching or towards your wife. Maybe it’s a compulsion.

Have not seen that anywhere but legion sports who have probably deleted it by now.

Was a fake legion sports account.
