Lakers just added some more swag.

Let's go with players as good as Brandon Knight making 50 million less for 300, Alex.

Do the Mavs have any TPE's where they could could take Bayless? Hope we can clear him to bring back marshall.

No we don't...

a combo-ish forward that can play 15-18 mpg and hit 3s at a competent rate is a pretty big need for us right now.

West can pull a 2/$25 contract from someone. See no way he leaves that coin on the table.


He just turned down a $12 million player option. He clearly values a title more than money at this point of his career.

Rockets need a backup comboG and a 5. Trade Bayless and Plumlee and JOB for Papankos-NG and 2nd. (Salary dump).
Sign Jordan Hill and Corey Brewer for 14 contracted players.

They were totally mediocre after their hot start. If they don't get their **** together from the start I wouldn't be surprised if they missed the playoffs altogether. East still isn't as good as the West but there's some depth building and quite a few teams that should be sneaky good. Cavs, Bulls, Hawks, Heat, Wiz, Bucks should be better barring injuries. Pacers with a healthy PG are better too imo. Then you have the Celtics, Magic under Skiles, Pistons that should all be improved.

If the Cavs take on Joe Johnson that city needs to build a 10 story statue of Dan Gilbert.

Even if they dont completely suck, they are still screwed. The Raptors are the best example of a treadmill team in todays NBA. They need to trade everything and restart. Them completely sucking next year would be the best thing to happen for them, it would force Masai to blow up that terribly mediocre roster

Sham's TPE section is down and my list was last updated at trade deadline. I see they have none but that may not be 100% accurate.

I also think the East will be pretty good next year. Not as good as the West, but the East has 8 legit playoff teams now imo.

I think it will be the Heat that disappoint the most next season. Call me crazy, but I predict they miss the playoffs. A mix of injuries and serious lack of chemistry will be the cause of it. Also they literally have a d-league bench

I dont think they miss. I just think theyre a 7/8 seed. They are in the same division as ATL and WAS. Wade hasnt played in more than 68 games since 2010 and is about to be 34. They have zero bench and their surprise producing big has a VORP of .3 and has a foul rate of 4.1/36. Whiteside also had 8 techs and 4 flagrants in 48 games.

Bucks could be also. 11-18 after the All-Star break last year.

We didnt lose our 3rd, 4th, and 5th leading scorer replacing them with Demaree Carroll and Biyombo.

Our future doesn't hinge on Kyle Lowry and Demar Derozan.

Was just about to say it's been hard to get good data lately, sham has been down for around a year and story tellers shut down around the same time. Just went to sham's website and it's saying he's coming back, thank god. Using Hoopshype is like suicide.
