they're throwing in a 2nd rd pick to clear space so they can give $50 million to Olynyk over the next 4 years.
it's not that great of a move.

Well the established price is now a second. Can't see us trading the first now.

Clippers (healthy) are going to be good.

I still don't love it to be honest.

The Clips biggest problem before was they were good enough to be a very good regular season team but lacking the premier players needed to win in the playoffs, and I still think they have that same problem. I don't think that's a championship team, and I don't think they have the assets to become exponentially better over time either.

Especially with the West improving so much this off-season.

Is no one really going to throw some cash at Bazz? If I was a going nowhere team I think I'd pick him up and let him be a tank commander to see what happens.

Yeah, I'm surprised by the lack of rumors with him. Kind of feel bad for the guy.

Bazz is underrated around he league. I think he just needs a good fit. Actually think he'd do well in a place like Utah with Gobert masking some of his defensive shortcomings.

Isn't Teodosic supposed to be a Rubio clone but a much better shooter? Admittedly I don't know much about him but whenever I hear people make a comparison it's almost always Rubio with a shot.

People are lazy. That's not a great comparison, other than being European and usually having dark, shaggy hair. He creates extremely well and can get to the basket, along with being a good shooter. He's a complete matador on defense. He has size, but not a lot of athleticism. Honestly a better comparison for him would be a poor-man's Steve Nash.

Teo is slow, unathletic PG, who can shoot and pass, can't defend his own shadow, doesn't fight through screens, I doubt he will be able to go to the rim in NBA, especially playing against PG on the West.

By the time Sam Cassell joined the Wolves he was a slow unathletic point guard, but he knew how to shake his defender with his herky jerky style. I forget whether Sam was first or second team all NBA that year.

I know we don't have the money but I would have loved Hardaway Jr but definitely not for 17.75M per

Yea..don't know what the Knicks are doing here. Not good.

Post #156 » by **Calinks** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 4:44 am

Kings doing what flip did a few years back signing vets to help the kids. Except Kings got vets that can still play

Atlanta is falling apart. They used to be a very solid team. I like coach Bud's system, but all last moves has been average at best. Maybe we can get Bellineli from them for Aldrich?

Knicks are a mess; 71 mill for thj?

If the hawks are smart, they sign bazz asap for probably half that.

Post #159 » by **Calinks** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 8:13 am

I really feel like Bazz is getting disrespected at this point lol. On bad team he could probably put up 16-20 PPG. Like I said if I was one of those teams I'd take a chance.

Neeva · Post #160 » by **Neeva** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 8:17 am

Watch thj go back to dleague type with the knicks
They are a mess, he's had one good year and it could be a fluke.

Hoping Bazz signe with the nets or lakers to help mess up pick hoarding celtics!
