^ Lacob is far too arrogant to ever be perceived as making a financially motivated transaction.
That would be very savy on their part.... I like it..

Except he just made one by reading Wiseman away?
the best thing was Detroit's GM talking about "We have not beaten any of Boston, Milwaukee, Philly or Cleveland this season. We need size to beat one of those teams." You're a tanking team with 15 wins, Wiseman won't help you beat any of the contenders
And turning him into Payton II (whether they pull out of the trade today or not). Sure, that might have lessened the financial burden, but at that point it could be spun as making a "basketball trade".
Zion still out for weeks. Oden 2.0?
He doesn’t seem to be able to stay healthy. It’s a weird body type/ athleticism combination. It’s always going to over stress his joints, ligaments, and muscles.
He's a fat boi with bow legs who depends on athleticism. Every time his chunky body lands it puts more pressure on those little infant knees.
Those 2028 and 2029 second rounders . . .
what is there to work out? buyer's keepers, they can void the trade or not. CAn you renogiate after the deadline? that would seem to be contrary to the point of a deadline
Probably they wanna complete the trade but ask for injury waiver or insurance.
Shams words it better.This seems more like they want the league to award draft compensation than renegotiation.The NBA has received a complaint from the Golden State Warriors against the Portland Trail Blazers and the league has launched a review of potential misleading by the Blazers regarding Gary Payton II's status, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.h
There have been renegotiations in the past but I don't think they were cut off by the deadline
When the Spurs traded for Charlesv Smith, him and Monty were held out of the first half of their first game because of Smith's bad legs and the Spurs squeezed the Knicks for more cash to keep the trade from being voided for a failed physical.
But that was 2 weeks before the deadline, so I don't know if GS can demand to only pay with 2 or 3 seconds instead of 5
Womp womp warriors take the. L. And wait for the league to punish Portland...who say he was fit to play...but needed pain killers

Really puts Portland's reputation in the toilet.
What are the 2026 and 2027 less favorable picks? What does that mean? Also, what is the 2026 SAS or IND or MIA pick mean?
And the 2028 and 2029 picks, are they all second rounders from MIA & NOP?
1. Less favorable should read least favorable. Take all of the group of picks that are /d together, and we get the worst one of the group
2. Since they are under the banner marked FUTURE 2nd ROUND PICKS (their caps, not mine), I’d say yes, they’re SRPs.
GS is trying to get compensation from the league (probably getting back a few of the 5 SRPs they gave) if it's proven Portland hid medical information, which is a form a renegociation I guess. Portland could be fined too and lose picks other than the ones they'd give back to GS.
I know there's a weight clause in the max extension deal he signed last summer but not sure about games played. Irony is he signed a 5 year 193M deal starting next season that could rise up to to 231M would he have been named an all star this 2022-2023 season, which he's been, despite playing like 30 games... The league and media trolled NO, lol...
Not sure what kind of insurance deal NO signed for Zion but couldn't be long before he become the worst contract in the league, which I don't wish him ofc.
