Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Where is this notion that other teams aren’t trying to get better coming from? Like what is it even based on? Lol

It’s ****ing Day 2 of FA and we just had WojBombs and ShamBombs dropping pretty much non stop since midnight on Sunday.

We should have tried to sign Paul George to the vet minimum and trade for Kawhi using Gerald Green, Zhou Qi and a box of staples as our pieces. We ain't trying hard enough.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Boogie was the ONE person GS really don't have an answer for in the league!

The front office is too cold man...just went out and signed the muf***a.

That's some gangsta **** right there man.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Cousins was sitting out there.

So was Julius Randle

So was Rondo

So was Lance

So was Javale

So was Tyreke

and So on...............

It's not even like being on GS's level but I don't see some of these teams trying to get better at all, all the while complaining about the Warriors.... King is right.

There would've been no issue ha the Lakers signed him and got Kawhi,

but it's the Warriors and now Lakers fans are posting Adam Silver memes?

You must have access to some of those sauces your always clowning to know the status and intent of all those players...

Yall are doing too much preimtive saving for the Dubs when it's not even necessary. They arent victims here. No ones blaming them for getting better like a team is supposed to do. It's fair game.

People are simply reacting to the juggernaut of a team they are building out West. I'm not going to sit here and pretend like they're anything like any of these teams of yesteryear....their starting 5 is just....ridiculous.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Nah.


Teams ain't wanna pay Cousins and let him rehab his injury. They wanted to lowball him.



Cousins said "Cool. I got you".


Teams have to start realizing players have ALL the leverage in free agency( Once the players sign a contract the pendulum swings back towards the team).



Cousins was like "You don't wanna pay me? Oh I'mma make you pay me to get me off this team then. Won't lowball me again will you?"

That's exactly what happened....

I can't wait for the story to come out.

Based on the god-awful contracts that are handed out every summer it's clear that teams are trying to get better, granted 80% of the league is woefully bad at it. It would be nice if 80% of the league took a clue and blatantly tanked.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Shoot, what your Wiz doing man, do you even know?

It was a legit question... does anyone know what these teams are doing?

and ye Jazzman is right it is my opinion based off of multiple years not just this summer.

Don't know why you hating on the Wizards. Claiming Thomas Bryant off waivers is an impact signing.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Speaking of that.

What legitimately took place when they blocked the CP3 move to the Lakers? I genuinely don't remember how that transpired.

Completely different than what's happening here I assume?

The league owned the NO at the time. And all the owners came together and vetoed the trade. Sending Chris Paul back to New Orleans. To months later being traded to LA Clippers. NO had no owner. So the rest of the league owned.

Not to mention, Iguodala would likely start for 20+ teams in the league... Livingston would be the first player off the bench for 29 of 'em too.

Of course you are Bolt, most of the news was for the Lakers so far

Wiz brought in Thomas Bryant from the Lakers and the Nets took care of Joe Harris and brought in Ed Davis from Portland.

But I also know for a fact that neither of them are done making moves because again...Day 2. Probably means that Dwight will be a Wizard since his two choices have filled their need or didn’t want him in the first place.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

I think the next CBA is going to be interesting.

I'm surprised we haven't heard anyone in the league suggest an All Star cap. Similar to how soccer teams are limited to the number of international players they can have, the NBA might want to consider a cap on the number of one time All Stars or All NBA players.

This would not include players already on the roster. So if the limit is 3, you don't have to do anything if a fourth develops from your own roster. But once you have 3, you can't trade or sign an existing former All Star.

Until then LOL. Go Warriors? I can't wait to hear Breen say, "Curry goes to his right, dishes it to Green. Green to Thompson, pump fakes, passes it to Cousins in the post. 7 on the clock. Cousins spins, finds Curry in the corner, the extra pass to Durant for three! BANG!

All-Star cap would be nonsensical. They can temper the team ups if they really want to, It's called a Hard Cap.

Golden State aside

I asked a question about other teams and didn't get an answer, and now i'm asking YOU specifically 24th Letter

What are these other teams doing to get better, especially the top ones?


It's just a question.
