2025 Free Agency News/Rumors

I guess the Pistons are operating like Beasley is toast.

I would also if I were them.

Let it play out in the courts, but they would be stupid to sign him to a contract with his pending case where anything can happen. It's a business at the end of the day.

Can't skip the fact that Robinson's contract is only partially guaranteed year 2 and non-guaranteed year 3. When negotiating contracts, adding clauses like that up the AAV.

That certainly makes his deal alot better.

Thanks for looking up the specifics.

Sorry if this is too negative.

NBA free agency gets weird wild and wild every summer smh

Do we have a chance to get Ayton? I would love a Giddey, Buzelis and Ayton core.

Ayton is theory is a very good target but I just hate the idea. We finally have a team full of young hungry guys that we enjoy watching play basketball.

Ayton would be two steps back. The man looks like he cares less than Pat.

Ayton is a younger but a worse shooting version of Vuc. Also, seems like POR was very disappointed in his work ethic and attitude. Hope the Lakers get him and are stuck.

Ayton is not a winning player.

Let's just block everyone who we don't see eye to eye with. Turn this place into a real echo chamber.

I’ve actually blocked every other poster so I can just admire my own glorious posts.

This is the way....

The only three posters whose posts I can see are yours, GoBlue’s and jnrjr’s, which is why I’m responding to this. Everyone else is blocked. Including me, so oddly I’ll never see this post. But I hope you enjoyed it.

One of the biggest reasons I hate professional sports more and more...makes no sense to be paying ANYONE that plays a game 71M per year.

Professions aren't paid by how hard people work or how much good they do, they're paid by how much money they make the people above them.

That goes far beyond sports.

This Times 10000000. No one ever says Jerry Reinsdorf is making too much money. And he literally just owns the team and sits back and watches the money come in. The players are the ones generating it.

As a matter of fact nobody has even.mentioned reinsdorf and Money in the same sentence! /s

Cause it's a double negative.

at this rate...Bulls F.O. might as well just waive VUC and sign Joakim Noah or Taj both 40 years young, for the end of the bench role to help develop the rookie Noa.

Dammit Duck! What did I ever do to you?

Wait, you won't be able to see this...

Double dammit!

You take that back. He doesn’t sleep at night because he is always winning playing call of duty.

I think I would be happy if Indy signed Ayton. That dude may be the only starting C in the league worse than Vuc on defense.

True, what happened to this kid, Sco? He played better defense his rookie year. He has the tools to a be a force on that. And each new team is hoping he taps into his potential on that end. This is a guy who shouldn't be coming off anybody's bench. I can only imagine the disappointment that the Suns organization feels after drafting this dude.

[Tetlak]

I wonder if we trade Coby or Ayo, and Grimes continues to sit in FA, if we attempt to offer him our MLE? He fits our theme pretty well and could be the 20/4/4 guy with defense that he showed to be.

I think he'll get multiple MLE offers and choose one where he gets the chance to start. If we are trading Coby, signing Grimes would be my preferred course of action. He's not as good offensively, but he's better defensively.

Grimes would be a solid pick up regardless of if they trade anyone else or not.

We would really struggle to score if we lost Coby and Vuc. It would force Buz Giddey and PW to really score.
