no. The NBA is going to make SURE that if LeBron is in the league, he’s making the playoffs, even if he’s a first round out. That 25 pick will be about where it was last year, 17 or so.
That Charlotte 2025 pick could possibly convey as a first. wink wink

I know many here scoff at the pick and I understand it but this may very well be the type of deal where it’s valued as “first” so a team can say they met their asking price.
doubt it but we can hope
Ridiculous ask. Lopez is a salary dump at this point.
Get ready for the asswhip of having every free agent or trade block player linked to the Spurs.
You can clearly get Lopez for 4-5 seconds or the CHA pick since nobody is offering a first. Spurs might get in on this, if they are making some bigger moves prior to that.
I hope we can get Barnes if that three team deal happens, I'd give up a couple of seconds for him.
We'd still have room for Markkanen.
Utah has way more cap space available to them than we do. By renouncing Kira Lewis, THT, etc, they'll have like 30 mil in cap room.
Detroit north of 30 as well if they want
Spurs can certainly absorb salary. Not sure what the Kings can offer up to make it worth while.
Mighty lot for a guy they were hoping would be their third-best player this season
He can't even shoot!
Good player, but everyone gets a max these days.
I like Franz but these are the kind of deals that kill teams.
Wow, this is crazy. Teams keep handing out these contracts. WTF. At this point, may as well let every team f themselves over. I haven't really watched him much, but from what I've read, he's good, but not sure if he's a max player potentially down the line?
Couldn't they have waited to give him the max next year? what was the incentive for Orlando to rush it? Should have played the waiting game like Philly did with Maxey, if Franz doesn't want to sign a deal for less than the max, have him earn it first. Next year they could match offers anyway.
Kevin Huerter anyone? This team does need shooting. Two years left on his deal$16,830,357 then$17,991,071.
Anytime you can lock up a 3 and D player who shot 28% from three (worse than Sochan btw) for a mere $45 million a year, you just have to do it.
That Wagner deal makes Vassell look like a bargain by comparison. the 2nd apron was needed to save owners from themselves yet they keep handing out ridiculous undeserved contracts based purely on potential![]()
here come the Spurs with the Devonte Graham contract.
Stupid deal by the Magic tbh. Wagner can't shoot and averages 19 PPG and somebody had the nerve to say Vassell is overpaidAlso looks like he has incentives for a combined 50 million in his contract.
the "incentive" is him making an all nba team this year.
a typical max rookie extension starts at what, 25% of the cap and then climbs from there... whereas if he cracks an all-nba team (or wins DPOY) prior to the extension kicking in, it jumps to becoming 30% of the cap
That Sochan contract is right around the corner when the other NBA fanboys laugh at us.
