Kevin Love, don't let these other overpaid guys clown you like this. Make your move.

Bogdan.
Hayward.
Probably Melton.
Can't think of who else off the top of my head

Millsap, Ibaka, Gasol, TT, FVV, Crowder, Ingram, Baynes, Whiteside, Bazemore, Harkless, Saric

there's definitely still talent to be had

Where are we looking in terms of teams that still have their non-tax MLE or cap space?

Cap space is just New York, Atlanta, and Charlotte. TPE's that a guy could be traded into? That's a different story. Teams losing a free agent that could turn it into a double S&T? More options.

There's been a lot of questionable money spent tonight, and that's with the Knicks still sitting there with a pile of cap space.

Good for the Knicks for sitting steady. Probably keeping the powder dry for Hayward or FVV, just in case, though.

Wall hasn't played more than 70 games since 2017. He has been out of injury for like what? 2 years? And now he demands a trade before training camp? lol

This Portland fan does not get this signing at all, help me out here Miami fans - is this guy any good? His 3pt shooting sucks

What is the cost of dumping John Wall?

Post #1873 » by **VCfor3** » Sat Nov 21, 2020 3:41 am

Wow. Denver offered Grant the same contract and he picked Detroit.

A lot (though we tend to overate the cost)

Big time athlete, with some defensive potential. Limited offensive player outside of some slashing and lobs.

I could be convinced to be game as the Knicks if it's just a crazy haul of picks and young guys.

I love this for Portland.

I think Portland has been low key awesome this offseason.

I think Portland has had a good off-season, but I hate this signing. This is like Aminu part 2 where Portland will play 5 on 4 on offense when Derek is in the game during the playoffs.

Crowder still on the board, Marcus Morris as well.

Nothing against Derrick Jones, good defender & athlete, but a terrible fit.

You know I bet Detroit would love to have those four 2nds back right now to help facilitate some salary dumps.

Remember watching AMINU sit unguarded everytime Dame touched the ball? Meet version #2.
