Re: 2023 Offseason Thread

I think they are more to the story also. I mean why on earth would Portland paying a 29-year-old role player 30 million per year if they were rebuilding. Thats not a move a rebuilding team makes giving him 5 years.

Not saying it’s not true, cause we all have suspected it’s been happening, but we just running with this from the same reporters that knew nothing about Milwaukee being in the mix until Dame was traded there? And nobody had nothing on him apparently not being hurt those last games all this time until the day after Dame gets traded? Seems like a pro Dame fed report to make Portland look bad.

I'm happy he's getting a second chance. Hopefully he got some help.

Makes sense he's signing with the Clippers when he was seen working out with either Westbrook or George in the off-season.

This is a low - risk, high - reward scenario if Primo can turn into the type of player the Spurs envisioned. Feels like he's at best a Tre Mann - clone (which would've been disappointing in San Antonio, TBH), but that is only if he can unlock some playmaking and higher level ball handling skills.

He is a raw shot creator, though, yet I don't think that does much good on a team loaded with guys that provide that skill.

I hope whatever sexual deviancy he's dealing with has been dealt with through therapy. I also hope that the Clippers have contingency plans in place to deal with such a unique perversion (for pro sports).

Surprised they couldn't get a 2nd for him. Definitely think a contender will pick him up

Re: 2023 Offseason Thread

Wonder if Portland might look to flip Brogdon or Williams. Don't really have a need for either.

Also wonder if they might try to flip Brogdon to Clippers. Clippers wanted him before the injury concern stopped the trade.

But man, Celtics will be in Cap Hell next year

Crazy. I would've wanted at least one season of a rotation of Williams, Porzingis, and Horford before moving on. I get that Williams is injury prone too, but banking on Al/Kristaps being healthy all season is sketchy.

Gonna see a lot of Tatum at the PF also, I would assume.

Does Philly make a move to try to keep up or rid themselves of Harden (before Media Day)?

The main question for Philly is if Clippers revisit the Brogdon talks. It's certainly a lot cheaper to go after Brogdon than Harden.

I don't see how they can keep up regardless. If Clippers opts for Brogdon, Philly I'd screwed with the Harden situation. No other team showed interest in Harden. And you're not getting anything of value for Tobias Harris either. So not expecting anything optimistic for Philly

Re: 2023 Offseason Thread

They really need the Porzingis move to work now but a top 6 of White, Jrue, Brown, Tatum, Horford, Porzingis is absolutely loaded.

Re: 2023 Offseason Thread

While the players swapped look like a pretty good deal for Boston they are very thin on the frontcourt if they have to rely on injury prone Porzingis and 37 year old Horford to give them alot of minutes.

Re: 2023 Offseason Thread

I like the move for Boston. Be aggressive. It feels like they have been spinning in (a very good) place for like 5 years now. Swing for the fences! I'd love to see them grab Dwight on the cheap to bolster their front court.

Portland is building a solid looking team as well just off the Dame haul.

They’ve been there the past couple years with a 36 year old Horford and injury prone Williams though. Not that your point isn’t true, just pointing out they were in that spot regardless.

Saw they added Gabriel, I don’t hate that as I’m a bit more fond of him than some, and they didn’t drop off much last year in minutes they played Kornet. You’d think they would want another big for potential meetings against Joel/Joker though.

Re: 2023 Offseason Thread

Often times you wish an exiting player well, other times you genuinely mean it. I hope Rob find health and success going forward. Easy guy to root for.

Celtics needed an identity shake up and achieved just that. Credit to Brad for having the stomach to pull the trigger on the deals he made. Excited to see where the end result takes us.
