2021 NBA Free Agency and Trades

[JerkFace]

You're telling me Portis or Olynyk wouldn't have taken twice the money to come to Phoenix?

Portis wasn’t leaving the Bucks. It was already reported that he turned down more money to stay. Olynyk signed for 3 years 37 million so I am unsure why you are acting like he was a possibility.

 

[Matt L]

A Ricky Rubio who believes in himself, like he does on Spain, would be an annual All-Star. So strange that he never consistently plays with this level of confidence in the NBA.

Are you watching?

Portis took less to re-sign with Milwaukee last year, are you advocating we throw him $10m per year?

Are we able to pay over $12m annually to Olynyk?

Yes, I am advocating signing Portis to a contract along the lines of what Crowder signed last year. Our championship window is the next two years. We didn't re-sign CP3 just to skimp on the team around him, did we? They need to do whatever it takes to fill their needs and improve the roster. Someone like Portis would have been a perfect fit.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Olynyk received more than I thought he did. Didn't the Pistons sign one of our targets for something like $5 million?

Edit: Trey Lyles. He would have been a nice fit here.

who you would have immediately took a dump on the second we signed him and then ******* and complained that James Jones would rather euthanize every big we have rather than sign one worth anything.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Are you watching?

yeah. It’s sloppy. We don’t look great but apparently this team is super slow starters so hopefully they pick it up in the 2nd.

this team is a looooooooong ways away from The Dream Team.

its been less than SEVEN HOURS of FA. They’ve already used part of the MLE to get a guy YOU WANTED. Get a grip before you need to change your diaper again.

I advocated signing McGee for the minimum as a second big, not spending half of our MLE on him as our primary signing for only one season while Sarver just pockets the other $25 million.

Not a chance. I have been clamoring for an actual 4 for three freaking offseasons now. I will take any NBA level 4 at this point.

The 76ers are planning to waive George Hill.

There is 5 more roster spots to fill. Get a grip. The money is going to get spent.

I wouldn't necessarily count on it. This wouldn't be the first time Sarver just pocketed money he could have used to get a championship contender over the hump.

He'd be a solid pickup as a 3rd pg. Probably looking for more playing time then we can offer

I would hate to read @1Sun take on this USA roster

 

[Cheesebeef]

Team USA looks awful

Whining that we didn’t get Trey freaking Lyles and his 5 pt average is truly peak trolling.

you’re probably gonna hate mine if we keep this atrocious play up.

 

[Cheesebeef]

We’re getting outrebounded 25-12!

 

[Hoop Head]

I wish NBC showed the Olympic USA vs Spain game.

DId you try the Peacock app? I'm not sure if its on the premium version or not but you log in similar to the Ballys/Fox Sports app.

Have to wonder what Pop is thinking

It's $5 for the month

I don't know. He hasn't played much the last two seasons and his stats have been in decline.

Sorry, but I am just sick of seeing wings playing the 4, getting abused in the process and putting way too much on Ayton's shoulders to carry the front court.

Dare I ask how JaVale McGee is playing?

Is it a phone thing or can you get it on the laptop?

 

[Hoop Head]

According to you 1 month before the playoffs started we were a lottery team waiting for the bottom to fall out. So why don't you admit you don't know what a title contender looks like, let alone what moves make a team better?

You are wrong far more often than right. The only time you're right is because you predict losses every outting and no team wins every night so you occasionally get that right.

Overpaying to keep it only a one year deal is a common practice around the league. The player is taking a risk by giving up security later in their career so you have to compensate them.
