2021 Offseason Thread

[ProfessaPackMan]

It’s the Offseason for most of the league not in the playoffs but might as well get this thread started.

As reported by Woj and Shams, Danny Ainge is stepping down from his position as President of Basketball Ops and Brad Stevens will be stepping down from his HC position and replacing Ainge.

I expect them to be in the playoffs with a full offseason together and depending on who AK lands. My new pipe dream is landing Dame when he inevitably wants out. If we keep our pick (meaning it’s a top 4 pick) don’t be surprised if AK makes a Dame trade happen.

Eric Pincus from Bleacher Report reporting that Chris Paul intends to decline his $44 mil player option as he seeks something around 3 years and $100 million.

Someone will give it to him.

And teams will point to the last 2 years as to why he’s worth it.

It’s going to be like 3 more years before the conflict between wanting my team to win and the bull**** salary cap making we have to hope that guys don’t get paid makes me implode. I hate it.
We’re probably going to have to trade Randle. I don’t see him taking the extension now, and there’s no way we can give him the max next year. What a great spot to be in as a fan.

I see NBA Twitter/Media are going to make Dame this years Giannis where they’re going to try and convince him to force himself out of Portland no matter what he says.

Also to be fair, I don’t think you get to blame the media and Twitter when these athletes continue to do stuff like this

He posted that right after the Lakers/Suns game. These guys are smart, media savvy people. They know what they’re doing most of the time with this stuff.

Maybe he thought people had heard the song or understand Nipsey’s story was about staying dedicated. He’s not gonna use a Nipsey quote to say “hey guys I’m switching up”.

Or maybe he wants there to be questions because he could just as easily just say "I'm committed to bringing a championship to Portland PERIOD. No speculation needed." Typically you use song lyrics to talk for you because you don't want to look like the bad guy for what you're about to do or you plan to make an unpopular decision but you can deflect to the old 'I was just quoting a song a like' line once the reports start coming out of what your real intentions were.

Not saying you're wrong, just that there's much easier ways to say something that nobody will be mad at than the thing that may get you looked at side ways.
