The 2023-2024 NBA Season

I’m at a loss. 34 million and 4 years per is a big time commitment for a guy on the back end.

I like it

One of you gurus, I’m wondering about the timing of this. Why would they do it right now?

I believe it saves them some money on the front end

Looks like 9 million

 

[bksballer89]

I thought i was done with seeing Patty Mills play meaningful minutes for this team but i guess not

 

[Stakesarehigh]

They werent allowed to do this before 4/1

So seems like they basically got this going right when they could

Also saves the Celtics a huge amount in taxes next year vs holliday picking up his player option

Like 9m in cap dollars and much more in cap dollars

Yes I'm guessing there is a tax saving...well 9 million multiple by a factor of like 3 or so right?

Yeah, it’s an insane amount. Might even be more as a multiple time repeat offender

My all time favorite tax penalty was still Melo. His final year was something crazy like 100 million when you added tax.

Guys gonna have to start wearing vests. They liable to get clipped walking around costing that kind of dough not performing

Jordan Poole wouldn't be safe in the bay area right now if he was a Dub lol

Play-In game here we come

According to Bobby marks it saves the Celtics over 35m

Yeah. Not excited about this

Just means playoff jimmy will be pissed

 

[bksballer89]

This team is so bad and plays with no sense of urgency ever

 

[bksballer89]

Another big time game at home and another no show from Butler and Bam

 

[thunderc]

Thunder going to be able to rest some guys in the 2nd half tonight. Anyway they better be able to.

I was kinda hoping you would save the Clippers from themselves by winning.

5th seed here WE come.

 

[bksballer89]

Don't bother playing the final 2 games. Just rest everyone because not a single person in the organization gives a damn about avoiding the play-in

That matchup has looked pretty set for a bit.

 

[bksballer89]

You can't look this horrible when both teams are on the 2nd leg of a back to back

 

[bksballer89]

Luka 11 attempts
Kyrie 11 attempts
Bam 10 attempts
Jimmy 5 attempts

This is why Miami need to find a way to acquire a real #1 and demote Jimmy to #2. This lack of aggression bullshit is why they will always remain a play-in team until they no longer need to depend on him since he loves to decide what game to take serious from October-April

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Thunder clearly tanking not winning by 50 here
