The Official 2015 NBA Free Agency/Off-Season Thread

And they still gotta re-up Bron.


The Cavs are spending like they're a soccer club during the transfer window.

They still got to re-up JR

And someone argued with me yesterday telling me that players don't care about the direct of a team. If you have no direct, like my Lakers, niqqas ain't signing, bottom line. Proof right here.

They probably had Byron Scott in their doing his best stone pillar impersonation.

But how many star bigs leaving or not signing with the Lakers do we have to hear about before we come to a conclusion that something just isn't right anymore? Kobe Bryant in the room during player wooing sessions has been a problem more than once now

Then why would they even bother if that was the case? They KNOW Kobe will be there and his voice will be heard. Think.

Paul getting THREE YEARS?

Besides Dwight I doubt Kobe was the reason Melo didn't sign or Pau left.

Obviously Kobe didn't want Howard here after playing with him.... Just wish we could of got some assets for him.

The Cavs payroll is going to be insane, they also have Brendan Haywood's contract that they are most likely going to move.


If I had to guess, they gonna short change JR Smith or let him go.

Why stop now?

 

[Rev]

How do these old ass vets continue to end their careers with 3yr contracts? Good for Paul tho.

 

[MillionMills]

its only 10 mil

Whats that? 3.3 a year or so? He played well last season and provides veteran leadership, championship experience, and if shyt go down treetop piru got his back.

Whats wrong with that?

Exactly. I think some people just want to find fault in everything

 

[DaRock]

hes gonna pay like 75m in luxury tax

every team overspending right now but under luxury is gonna get their money back off gilbert

LeBron returning alone put him 300-400milly A YEAR in the green....to have to pay 75 milly back is nothing....that's over a billion or 2 in revenue over 5 yrs while paying 200milly back...and being the topic of discussion/TOP attraction in the NBA..while in a position to WIN titles..this is a NBA owner DREAM....

 

[tremonthustler1]

When that cap goes up and Minny has that forever unused cap space... Might as well donate it to Cleveland

Kobe didnt want Dwight, that was no secret. Delete Dwight.

Pau didn't like the way the brass and dumbass D'Antonio treated him, nothing to do with Kobe. Delete Pau.

Melo wasn't coming to a broke down team with no coach and direct when you have PHIL JACKSON making all of these promises to him.Delete Melo.

See how easy that is? But let dudes live

If I was LA , I wouldnt come to LA either, I WANT RINGS NOW. The Lakers can't offer that for the next few years. Delete Aldridge.

Youth will have to build and carry the Lakers until we get a young veteran to lead them.

 

[Kang Deezy]

I'd like to know what leverage shumpert had to get 10 million per year though

That just fukked up the crowder potential contract

Aminu and Amir looking like the best bargains so far

 

[Illuminatos]

Cavs said fukk the CBA lol.

 

[Reid2Achieve]

Cavs ticket prices about to be sky high
