Derozan getting ~$28 mil per year, wowza! So I'm guessing Dennis isn't coming to the Bucks for $6 mil per

The Bulls are all in I guess. Not sure what though.

Well, they missed over-paying Otto Porter, so they decided to do it with DeRozan.

Doesn't LaVine want a max deal? Interesting times in Chicago.

They kind of have to give it to him. They are trading away all their firsts so there is no exit plan.

BKN is clear cut favorites and really they should roll everyone if healthy. But, difference between them and LA is BKN can afford an injury since they have 3 guys. LA can't.

Yeah, Brooklyn to me remains the favorites to win the title next year. Lakers are starting to shape up, but for now, I think we're probably on par with them. Still have to see what happens with Schroder, THT, and their TMLE though.

For now it looks like:

Guards: Westbrook, Monk
Wings: Bazemore, Ellington, Ariza
Bigs: LeBron, Davis, Melo, Dwight, Gasol

I don't get why everyone is so impressed with that.

The Lakers do not frighten me even a little bit. Brooklyn will always be the team to beat.

THT might be the most overrated player in the league since Kyle Kuzma and likely a complete non-factor once again in the postseason, yet LA has no qualms going deeper into the tax just to sign him to an extension and preserve roster depth and flexibility, hmmm.....

LA has 36 roster spots

Finally used their MLE. Curious to see if they're able to bring Schroder back too or if he's headed elsewhere.

That one year of parity was fun

I would love to know what our plan was because something tells me Semi and Rodney wasn’t exactly IT

All these dudes taking less money to be LeBron’s puppy dogs, that’s cute.
