Official Offseason News and Rumors

[LAD]

I'm pretty sure most, outside of Bulls fans, expected this outcome.

Melo's flirtations with other teams was nothing more than an ego shot.

Had the Bulls been able to offer max money, the outcome could have been different.

But, he was never going to sign there while taking a 8mil a year paycut .

Was it really that far fetched if he took a $6 mil paycut back in NY?

Kobe needs to team up with LeBron on the majestic shores of crystal blue Lake Erie![/QUOTE]



:ss:

He can be Lebron's designated inbounder ?


He'd die first .[/QUOTE]
Now that IS funny...

 

[LAD]

Man it's boing to be PLAYOFFS OR BUST for the LAKERS....

As much as this sounds crazeee....

I like watching KOBE in action...watched him live come back from 27 and beat the SONICS...but he might think about pulling a FWADE and limiting his PT

Naw, his work ethic won't allow him 2 pull a Wade.

I thought the Clips would get Pierce.

But, the Nets didn't want any of the garbage littering our Roster .

They should have traded Bullock while they had the chance.

Any hope that he would be a rotation player, this season, went out the window when his brother/sister got murdered.

It's hard enough to lose a sibling young.

But, to have to answer questions about them being transgender will make it even worse.

How many more ex Heat players will play for the Cavs next year?

Isn't this the second time he took a paycut when his contract was up so that Cuban could put together a better team? The first time it worked, they won but immediately following the parade it seemed like Cuban broke that team up and hasn't been able 2 recover since. What moves have been made so far that would make us think differently this season?

Dirk made 24million last year.

That looks like Max money or close to it.

6 million total, not 6 million per year.

All of them except Rio.

He didn't want Chalmers in Miami.

So, he certainly won't want him in Ohio.

Seriously, all the main guys got multi-year deals.

So, they would have to be traded there.

I agree Mecca. My response was more rhetorical than inquisitive. I was being a bit sarcastic but since human interactions on the computer can be rather sterile of auditory intonnation and prosody of speech, much of that got lost.

Sarcasm is lost on Mecca.

The Cavs need Greg Oden.

People are having problems quoting stuff I see.

Need to finish strong at work, I'll be back around 1:30pm my time when I take my last break.

Dirk made 24million last year.

Well, not exactly but close. He made jus over $22 mil...the total deal was $80mil over 4 years. He signed that back in july 2010.

6 million total, not 6 million per year.

Oh alright...

Sarcasm is lost on Mecca.

I don't think Mecca was the problem in that case...

No problem, Sir

I ignored that post considering the source.

Hey, have you watched any summer league?

Clarkson is a keeper.

Yeah, your numbers are correct.

I was looking at his cap hit.
