2024 NBA Offseason

Oh BTW, Mecca. I like the change in Avi. Didn't like the painted fingernails one. That just wasn't/isn't you!

This nerd on NBA TV said the Clippers may have their MLE, @Mecca?

Cavs need to get in on this. I wonder if SAC would move Murray if they can get Ingram.

My hypothetical:

Pelicans get: Allen + salary
Kings get: Ingram
Cavs get: Murray and Barnes or Huerter

On paper I guess, but my thing is no matter how well a small market team is constructed there are always going to be people conspiring to throw something together at the last minute to beat them. In the end it makes it that much sweeter if you can make it happen, but winning a championship is just damn hard. The next 5 years are going to be fun for the Thunder, just hope they can stay healthy and get one.

Well, the NBA may consider OKC as small market, but the last time I looked, OKC is rapidly growing and they may not be a small market much longer, thunder. Now if they can just fix the continual small earthquake tremors. They simply cannot seem to stop shaking. For real!

I really do think Daigneault is the smartest guy in most rooms. That is part of what gives them a real chance.

Another really good move the Thunder made, bud. Presti is a genius

Where do you think they got the money for that awful Jones deal?

More teams need to take a chance on a fresh hire.

I’m tired of all these retread hires.

Doc Rivers should be taken round back and put down.

Pop, Spo….if you squint Lue, should be the only survivors of the old head hires.

Exactly and when guys like Caruso come out talking about how Daigneault will always be a mentor to him from his g league days it just reinforces it. Too many guys get overlooked.

Well it looks like we may end up with the tallest building in the US so I just have to assume that the earthquake stuff is under control. That’s not the structural engineer in me talking though lol.

Hartenstein is making $4M per year more than Myles Garrett. Crazy

Wyck made it clear he would spend into the second tier as he still
Is making money and team value is increasing

Gotta love that type of owner

I am not sure why the Lakers have this sudden interest in older, aging players. CP has been mentioned until he went to the Spurs. Now there is interest in DeRozan and of course 30-year old Jeremi Grant in Portland is suddenly the focus.

Grant is def not worth two number ones and the Lakers have some young talent like Hachimura and Hayes that they can develop. The Lakers should send Portland Reddish, Vincent, and a Number two and be done with it. Other than that, it doesn't make sense.

Lakers have been talking to the Blazers about a Jerami Grant trade

The Lakers are reportedly in talks with the Blazers to pull off what would be a significant trade for forward Jerami Grant.

Okay @shopson67

I found it.

You are mostly right.

None of the other articles listed the Greene/Klieber move.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, I know. I was being a tad facetious, I presume, DJ.

 

[DJ]

Forbes has the Celtics evaluated at 4 billion.
