nevermind - 3 days
3 years, rockets can match? right? how long do they have to match?
nevermind - 3 days
Good thing we wont take these assholes lightly next year.
So will the rox be able to match, trade lin and sign bosh in three days?
No. Even after a Lin trade, they can afford Bosh or Parsons, but not both.
Say the Mavs get Parsons, the Rox get Bosh, and no other major player movement happens. Does either team become a Spurs-killer? On paper, the Mavs would be a much scarier squad than the one that took us to seven games, but ... I dunno.
Rockers just countered with a max offer to Nowitzki.
Spurs just sitting back enjoying the show tbqh.
The Spurs should look into acquiring Shawn Marion w/ part of (or maybe all of) the MLE.
He's old but he's still a good defender with some position flexibility to the 4. He can be used to guard KD (while using Kawhi on Westbrook). When used as a stretch 4 vs. the Clippers, Trailblazers and Thunder, he would cause guys like Aldridge and Ibaka to defend out of the paint.
Most important, since playoffs are all about matchups, he would take a vital piece away from Dallas who was arguably the most difficult opponent last year in the playoffs.
I believe they can trade Lin, sign Bosh (or whoever to a max contract) and THEN sign Parsons in that order, and afford it all (above the tax of course)
Not saying it would be a bad idea, but I would like to see Chip's face when Marion starts shooting in practice.
I like it. I like that no compe or is getting everything they want. I'll be surprised if the Rockets re-sign Parsons at that price. Put it this way, I rather Dallas get Parsons and Houston get Bosh versus Houston getting both Bosh and Parsons.
Hahahahahaha, you got that right!
I saw some teenage kid shooting like Marion on Sunday at a park, I cringed at how awful it was.
Houston should really get back at the Mavs by stealing Blair from them...lock him up for $50 over the minimum.
I'm sorry, am I the only one that thinks if the Rockets end up getting Bosh, the Mavs end up getting Parsons, and the Thunder end up getting Pau, we should all be ting brix?
OKC and Houston kept their horrible coaches. Kawhi and Tiago can guard Parsons and dirk. Not to concerned.
Go right ahead.
If the Rockets get Bosh at the expense of Parsons then no they are not a threat...Now if they were able to sign Bosh and keep Parsons then that is another story...
If the Mavs get Parsons then yes I would be a little concerned but I still would give the edge to the Spurs...
I don't believe that Pau is going to the Thunder. We still have yet to see whether Pau is valuing money or a championship more. Either way though I don't believe that he would select the Thunder in either scenario because if its money he wants he goes back to LA or maybe Chicago if they don't use up their money on Stephenson. If its a chance for another championship rather than money, then I believe that the Spurs would be his best option. But at this point we really just don't know what Gasol's priorities are at this point...Me personally I believe that Pau is going to pick the money and stay in Los Angeles...
This is why the Parsons deal hurts the most. Not that the Mavs got him.
Now Leonard will expect even more than that, ignoring the fact that Parsons is getting overpaid by 25% now.
Leonard's getting paid no need to stress over it
I remember Gasol mentioned 3-4 teams in which he was interested back in May or June. What are those teams?
No way overrated Parsons can outplay 2013 Vince Carter... Plus they got Felton
Splitter can stop that 7ft SG Bosh.. Duncan can easily stop Dwroids... They loosing Lin... Who's gonna stop Kawhi? Francisco Garcia?
Gasol is going to the Spurs or Bulls. Why would he go to OKC to get 2 touches a game and play for a coach with no system
