Someone about to get traded, omg, please not Eason.

Why is Eason the first name that came up in your mind?


No extension.

Feels like they couldnt get an extension with Eason and they might dump him.

This would break my heart.

(Or they about to flip Sengun for Giannis)


As a Bucks fan as soon as I heard Capela sign with your Rockets I thought maybe this Sengun and others for Giannis might happen. In my mind as a Bucks fan if something went down i would hope the deal would be like Sengun, Whitmore, Sheppard, and Eason and 5 1st round picks for Giannis and Connaughton.

Your Rockets would be a super team and would 100% challenge OKC. Maybe Houston would rock a starting lineup of FVV, Amen, KD, Jabari, & Giannis. The only thing would be not having a lit of 1st round picks for a while.

For my Bucks this would signify rebuilding while getting some talented young players and draft picks.

Interesting so instead of Whit or Landale we decided to get another 7 mil or so Trade exception. Im not against it i guess it replaces the 2nd we gave up for NAW.

Capela is getting paid less than what Landale was making to replace Landale as the 3rd stringer.

I need to see how the contract is structured to know how I feel about it. Landale was fully non-guaranteed except his first year here 2 years ago. I would like something like that with Capela, first year guaranteed and then team options on the final 2 years. That would be great.

Can probably just move whitemore to Atlanta and save Jock to get another player to help them compete. Unless they’re just gonna send Jock and some seconds for Capela.

While it's weird to do it for a third center it is good to see Tilman is willing to pay the tax now that he's a lot more wealthy than he was when he bought the team. Figured he would be but not this easily

Landale was signed to this type of contract intentionally, that contract was offered to Dwight Powell before and he chose to remain with the Mavs at 12/3.

I'm talking about the Landale deal, it's an intentional baloon deal with no guarantees

Someone already reported it was a 2nd, still no news of a player involved. Might just be an addition to the Kd trade
