Rumors, Random Thoughts, etc Version 20/20 We all got everything right...

[Texas Chuck]

Reaves is going to get a max unless he just decides to give LA a discount, but considering how underpaid he's been I hope he doesn't. Get yours, Austin.

We can debate if he's worth it, but worse players get maxed regularly. And we've seen him excel even when Lebron and/or Luka have been out of the lineup so its not just playing off their gravity. He can go get it on his own.

Still absurd he wasn't in the Luka trade. But I expect him to be back with the Lakers and on a max or near-as deal. And I think its just fine. He's really good.

[Mavrelous]

IMO it would be a mistake for any team to max Reaves.

Its a mistake to max players putting up 29/6/7 on good efficiency with a strong impact correlation?

Good is an understatement, other than Steph, I don't think we saw 118 TS+ on volume from a guard.

Luka and Kyrie were an excellent offensive fit/duo. Reaves is a better regular season player than Kyrie, but we need to see him in the post-season to make further claims.

Maxing Reaves from his age 28-31 season is a no-brainer, which wasn't something I thought I would say in October.

could reaves win MIP too? quite the jump he made

Franz Wagner & Paulo Banchero for Giannis A.


Orlando and Milwaukee shocker

[HornetJail]

If Giannis is truly gone soon, how much are the Bucks regretting the cap gymnastics they made for the Myles Turner signing. $22M a year tied up in dead salary until 2030 is brutal. Hopefully they can do something productive to their rebuild with Turner within the next year.

meh they weren't going to get any assets for a dame coming off a major injury. they can at least get some asset for Turner. dead cap on a rebuilding team isnt that crippling

Nash did this once or twice, but Stockton definitely did it quite a few times.

Obviously not bad company either.

None. Turner gets them another FRP in trade.

[dcstanley]

Who was the poster that kept arguing how Reaves is an overrated no defense combo guard?

ChettheJet?

Many made the claims, but the guy Inhad in mind was Sixers fan.

I don't remember the lad's name but I know exactly who you're talking about. He kept comparing him to Simons and Sexton

[nzahir]

Any chance Hou moves Tari Eason?
