2023 offseason thread

[fightinfunbags]

can't wait to read about the teacher going to prison for stealing a felonious amount of office supplies from the sixers front office...

Shhhh…don’t tell them I’m in here.

Also need to factor in team needs, if your team is set on offense and needs a guy to play within it Brown is an easy choice. Walker needs his shots to be effective.

Sure. Reaves' emergence has ultimately pushed Walker out to a reserve role anyway.

I don't see the fit for Bruce Brown necessarily since I think their main need is a center with a perimeter game (Bropez would be perfect but expected to be out of the Lakers' price range unless he's feeling generous lol).

You have 4 starting spots locked down (DLo, Reaves, Lebron, AD). The Lakers can either add a SF to that mix (and put Lebron at PF) or add a C to that mix (and put AD at PF). Ideally, the Lakers get someone that allows for both lineups (basically the ability to put AD at PF or C) for matchup purposes, but that puts the need more at C than SF (especially with Rui assumed back).

If DLo isn't re-signed, then there is a whole different issue to address at starting PG (or does Reaves play the point as he did in college?)....

Luckily for you Brown is guaranteed to sign with yhe Wolves because I want that to happen very very much.

And they don’t go for the bae

Not good ones anyway. Bamba could fit that level if the Lakers waive him.

If it was you, and the offers were identical, do you choose to join the WCF Lakers or the disfunctional Wolves?

I think he takes less on a one year deal with the Nuggets for what they are limited to offer, then re-signs next summer under early Bird rules for better money.

I think the only thing I have left to hope for is that James Harden’s pen is out of ink when he goes to sign this god forsaken contract and no one else in the room has a spare pen.

maybe you should meet him in a public restroom and lock him up with your problem.

At least post a link.

[The Q]

Stein's Latest: Barnes, Reaves, Rockets, Harden, Irving, More

The Pacers' interest in signing Max Strus may be an indication that free agent forward Harrison Barnes will remain with …

Rockets working extra hard to be the 7 seed.

I think I would’ve let Kmart jr hit rfa now or signed him to a declining contract

Big if true…

He would be 37 at that point. A 2 year deal right now is more or less perfect.

I was joking but its also a joke based on reality. In an expansion draft, the other teams have to put up a list of players on their team that aren't eligible to be drafted by the new expansion. So if Lopez signs like a 4 year deal and there's expansion in 2 years (not likely just for talk purposes), he's the kind of player a team would allow to be eligible

For me? Timberwolves, but that is because I love the team. HOMER VOTE! Also I would find all of LeBron's bullshit exhausting. The 32nd time I was asked my view on Lebrons latest will he won't he retire crap I would snap.
