2023 offseason thread

[DJ Fieri]

Cap space gonna be more valuable to stay below the stupid second tax line

True but no players line up to go to Washington, Dallas, Indiana, Orlando, etc.

 

[DJ Fieri]

BTW the wife and I made it back safely from Oak Grove casino......went there last night......quick turnaround on a visit to shake up the normal day to day.

Like to keep you all updated on my comings and goings......

So FYI.........Going to a differet Chinese buffet for dinner after the wife returns from visiting her stepdad in hospital after his latest surgery......

And Sunday after work......playing a little basketball with the wife and grands.....

No but teams close to the apron who want to use the mle and dump salary for picks on them

Don’t sleep on Orlando

They were aboht 5 minutes away from hill Duncan and mcgrady in the same offseason

They’ve just been a terribly run franchise for so long

They should push for Fred and maybe beal. This is their best shot to make a splash. Then let the kids develop

FVV ad Beal?

LOL.

 

[msgkings322]

Just saw that.

Booker and Beal is a weird backcourt.

Some teams think just putting a bunch of names together is how you win titles

 

[The Q]

FVV ad Beal?

LOL.

You have

FVV and Suggs
Beal
Franz
Banchero
Carter

Plus their 2 lottery picks this year.

That's a pretty darn good starting point.

Dame and Portland need to stop pussyfooting around. They've been doing this shit for 3 years now. One of them just needs to sack up and make it happen. Stop waiting for the other side to speak up first.

I think the Wizards are about to get fleeced. It seems like all they’re looking for is expiring contracts.

The good thing about a trade with 2 horribly run franchises..:.


….one of them will accidentally do something smart

What are they giving up to get Beal and FVV?

 

[bksballer89]

 

[fightinfunbags]

He has a no trade clause. If he want’s Phoenix he’s going to Phoenix.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Porzingis would help Dame but to get #3 pick and whatever else Portland trades them.....the Wiz will have to include their 1st rounder.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Not really.

He has a NTC. He can go where he wants.

Fucking ninja'd!!!

 

[The Q]

What are they giving up to get Beal and FVV?

FVv is a fa

 

[DJ Fieri]

FVv is a fa

Pretty sure he can still resign with Raps for more money.....assuming that happens so the Raps can get something for him rather than just letting him walk for nothing.

Hence, why I asked what are they giving up for him.

Beal's contract is so bad they're only gonna be able to do so much. Plus, in their situation, getting back expirings (especially if they just cut them), isn't all that bad. They need to bottom out and start over. Would it be nice to at least get one decent player (like say Herro) back? Sure. But getting off Beal is a win by itself. If all they get is expirings and a couple of picks, they did well.
