Rumors and Discussion Thread (NYK and NBA) pt. III FA starting TONIGHT 6pm!!!

Ok, I'm tryna digest all this.

* What is Leon Rose doing that's really any different than what Mills/Perry did last season?

* We know Thibs doesn't like going deep into his bench and prefers vets. How are we tanking or optimizing development if we are likely to go with vet lineups and signing guys like Burks, Davis, Melo, Taj, etc.

* This model looks terrifyingly similar to what we've seen before.

-nothing
-we aren't
-it is

There is one constant.....

Scott Perry Folks Scott Perry!!!!!!!!

[robillionaire]

Again, I've been saying since he went twelfth. Find a way to get haliburton

They're not trading him. They were ecstatic to get him AND he wanted to be in SAC.

Read on Twitter

Ah, I had heard that he wasn't highly thought of by Kings because of fox. They got him for the value

he isn't even a PG he will probably play alongside fox

the only difference will be the players selected

also the difference is payton, mook, randle took up all our usage and shots and were horrible fits with our young pieces


hopefully the young pieces get true time to develop.

hey guys, if 2008 and 2019 haven't taught you anything,

no one wants to come here.

Outside of GH who did we miss on really?

[G_K_F]

Leon Rose following the Mills blueprint for greatness that Dolan makes every President abide by when signing their contract.

[god shammgod]

i'm not really mad at leon doing the same thing perry/mills did though. in fact, i hope he's worse at it.

We just **** drafted Obi and still haven’t rid ourselves of Randle.

It would make 0 **** sense.

unless they move him back to the 3

Oh god no!!!!

[PORZINGAAAWDD]

William Wesley connections are out of date, expired or guys who won’t come here at this point in their career. Nobody coming until we remove the mold from this house aka Dolan.

Unless perry has more control than we previously thought

I'm very confused man. If this is the plan then what did we fire Mills for? This looks like they're serving us leftovers for dinner bro.

its not

leon spend $11 MM half which collected us 2 2nd rounders

perry and mills spent $60 MM on complete garbage and no draft capital.

rj got a lot of usage. who else really needed it ? kevin knox ? we all know that it's like 99 percent likely he's just a bad pick.

[F N 11]

So they matched but hes going to Det? Im lost

[Dantares]

I would be fine with Melo and Toppin at the 4. just for the love of god get rid of Randle.

2 second rounders. wow. call up houston i think we can get harden.

Outside of Gah who did we miss on really?

bruh

we threw all the eggs into the lebron sweepstakes and weren't even close to signing him.

we cleared out all this capspace in 2018 for the last FA class and everyone that was rumored to come here didn't. we had space for 2 max guys.


you guys need to accept the fact that the only way out is to do a Philly style rebuild or a TOR style rebuild. in either scenario, we need to hit on the draft.


now is the time to take on bad contracts. we should 100% call WAS and do a reverse Paul George/Kawhi trade where we receive 3 first round picks.

[2010]

the only way out is to draft a star, or develop one.


oh wait, we did and had to trade him


LOL!!!

We didn't develop KP. We developed Janis!

Last season, we were testing some young players like Payton, Randle and Portis to build a young core. And trying to mix them with some vets like Morris, Taj, Bullock and Wayne. This season we only want to win.

Last season, we overpaid players for some reason. And spend the money very fast.

This season, we are trying to get borderline stars or players at discount.

[Orange Mamba]

No he's staying in DEN

[mpharris36]

wait a second...

spending

15 on portis
15 on mook
20 on randle
12 on taj
8 on ellington
8 on payton

is the same as

5 on davis (with 2 2nd rounders)
6 on burks

how sway?

[G_K_F]

Melo and Toppin is fine if you want the worst defensive rotation in NBA history.
