Bizarre is fight. I'm beginning to wonder if Holt is going all Donald Sterling on us.
This is true. But we will see.

Im thinking this is the Spurs not having the assets or any buzz. When Rockets got Paul it became a destination like SA did when LMA first joined. And the signings? They have limited cap space and they want to have max space next summer so I guess they bargain shop on one year deals after everyone spends all their cash. They are hoping for a David Lee find like last year.
They are going to get guys who are willing to play for 1 dollar for the opportunity to win a ring. They are riding a similar wave that Miami was riding with Lebron by getting vets who are willing to play for cheap. Lakers benefited from the same type of wave during the '00s when they were able to get bargain deals on vets who were also ring chasers. Nothing amazing about ring s signing with them. It is what is. This storm will eventually come to pass.
They did not have enough room for Hayward max as was. They needed to waive Kelly and make a small trade.
Watch out for what?
Short memories.
I see that now. I still wonder if they are looking for a frontline player instead of just a salary dump since they are unbalanced wings to bigs.
Are most signings announced during the day? Are we likely to get any more announcements late at night?
On paper, it looks like Rockets and Thunder may have leap frogged SA and T'Wolves knocking on the door too.
Would you trade Murray and a pick for Bradley/Crowder?
Lol . No
LMA for Gobert? Maybe with free agents drying up LMA's value increases with potential trades.
No one leapfrogged the Spurs. But they closed the gap and made a playoff series much tougher. Spurs didn't do anything while GSW got better.
ah well. they are in a very bad situation. Otto is still a young player, has gotten better each season, and they really need to pay someone. It could be worse. They could have given an outrageous offer to Simmons (not to diss on him, but he's an older player.) If I had to pay some roleplayer, let him at least be young, and someone who can shoot.
Thunder got much better. We struggled a little to beat them last year, and now they got way better. Rockets...don't know how it will mesh, but on paper, Harden and Paul gives them two elite players with their shooters still there and space to add some ring chasers. T'Wolves are much improved, but I think they need a year to mesh.
RFA, the Wizards are going to match that.
I'm going to die laughing if RC put all his eggs in the Simmons basket and he signs elsewhere.
that.. or Patty could have gone to Philly instead of JJ Red bc I think that was Patty's leverage (same as manu for getting the $14 mill last season).
Then Spurs could have paid a little more but for less years and taken HIll instead. /sigh or just gone a whole different direction entirely.
Remember that he's restricted. Spurs control his destiny.
Yes. But Boston would not under normal cir stances...
Thunder got some punk loser who is already talking about leaving. Houston is just aau basketball. Wolves are growing.
Yes, I would do that immediately if it was available.
What, is Paul George still talking about leaving even after the trade?
Technically yes, but I'm not sure RC will go much higher than the qualifying offer. If some team offers 12M-15M, Spurs probably won't match.
Simmons is eh, but if he leaves, there FA market is bare and our Summer League hopefuls suck.
