[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Well, that USA team kind of sucks.

Not exactly the dream team

The Dream Team lost to College C Webb and the select team.

Happens.

But, I don’t see us beating Canada.

This isn’t a strong roster.

Just a statement as to where the cap is going.

 

[shopson67]

Cleveland does that to people

 

[DJ Fieri]

LOL.

Imagine if the players were smart and didn’t do cap smoothing

It is kind of sad really.

I don’t think we need a team full of A listers, but it would be nice to have a couple.

Feels like 2004?

When they had almost none

They did though.

They had Duncan and Iverson.

LeBron and co. were too young at that time.

yeah they had duncan.

That's true. And he said after the way the international refs treated him he was never going back.

Seriously, who’s the best player on the team?

Ingram?

Brunson?

Edwards?

Dude, nobody wants another summer of Kent Bazemore getting 20 mil a year.

 

[The Q]

It’s going to take the players 4 seasons to get back to where the cap should’ve been this year

Let’s call it 5 with smaller raises each of those 4 seasons from there

That’s a TON of money for players to miss out on

Plus teams not paying the mle or signing guys with bird rights to stay under the second Apron

Unfortunately we will never get a top 15/20 typle of player to cut their summer short for the fiba world basketball tourney....only happens for the Olympics

Honestly these 6 aren’t bad

They’re not Tim Duncan, but it’s far less embarrassing than other guys who have taken those spots

If he’s not on the bench with foul trouble.

 

[The Q]

If he’s not on the bench with foul trouble.

Defense is an issue with that squad

Especially in that specific instance

Quite possibly would have been a lockout
