2022 NBA Offseason thread

Duh. Everyone knows that.

 

[trojanfan12]

You're more obsessed with me than I am with Draymond. That is hard to do. Congrats.

You just provide a lot of material.

Dead!

And he'd still be a better fit than Westbrook. At least he'd keep the ball moving and play some defense. lol

That isn’t saying a lot.

But yes, he is a better fit than the worst possible fit.

Sixers gave Embiid the night off and fucked around with some small ball running PJ Tucker at the 5. Opened the game with it and it was 21-8 start. Maxey was again unguardable.

 

[fightinfunbags]

teams?

He only turns 33 in March. Also since he isn't a scorer, you don't have to worry about a major decline in his production. Have another season like last year and he will get paid well

That’s a bad contract waiting to happen. Draymond thrives in GS because he doesn’t want or need shots on a team that has a ton of players that do. There are only about 6-7 teams that can place him in as an important piece and not suffer with a player that can’t score.

I mean...c'mon. This is just outrageous.

Clearly Jordan got hit on the jaw, not his eye. They need to fix this asap.

 

[shopson67]

Clearly not.

Bro, Lakers gonna give Dray the bag.

...and I'm going to lmfao

2/3 of the roster will be Klutch Clients.

Lakers don't have a bag to offer.

 

[shopson67]

The Lakers don't want him, regardless what he wants.....

LOL.

You may not want him, but don't speak for the Buss family lol. They aren't exactly nailing things lately, and Pelinka may be feeling froggy with his new extension. Besides, he's a solid addition depending on the cost.

 

[shopson67]

The Lakers don't have much to trade for him.....he isn't a FA. He has a player option that he isn't turning down for '23-24. His next contract won't be for 27.5 mill.

So in summation, he won't be a Laker. Like I said.

You don't think they'd accept a Russ for Dray/filler? The bigger issue is that the Warriors won't give up the players that constitute their options as filler. To bridge that gap, they need to include another $15M in salary on top of Dray's. That would likely mean Wiseman/Kuminga, which would be just fine for LA, not so much for Golden State. Looney and DiVincenzo can't be traded yet.

 

[shopson67]

The Lakers don't have a lot of cap space next summer and aren't blowing it on a declining Dray....

Who do you think they will blow it on? Take a look at the free agent list...

Draymond is hot topic right now and you keep talking about him. He needs to go and I hope your Lakers get him.

Talking about Hot Topic also points to teenage girl

There are several players on that list that I would love to see the Lakers sign.

But unless I missed someone as I was scrolling through...not a single one that I would want to see them give a max deal to if they had one to give.

With 3 daughters, I knew more about Hot Topic and those fucking glitter vampires than I ever wanted to know. lol

Hey, I still love going to the mall!

You gotta love moms for always having their kids' backs. Draymond merely wanted to talk to Poole.

 

[Robotech]

This sounds crazy, but it's actually not that crazy. Michael Jordan went no. 3 in his draft class.

I somewhat agree. It's not a sucker punch if the punchee shoves first IMO. Now if he had just cold cocked him without getting shoved, sure.

The punch wasn't warranted of course, but that's a slightly different discussion.

GMs get drafts wrong all the time.
