Official 2025 Offseason Thread

[pepe1991]

The Magic currently are +1400 to win the 2026 NBA Championship. 5th in the odds.
OKC +240
Hou +800
Cavs +800
NY +850
Orl +1400
Minn +1400

I like our chances against Cleveland.

Kind of crazy. That is respect beyond just the east being weak. Higher than Denver.

Denver has Houston, Wolves, OKC, Clippers, Lakers, Warriors, Spurs on their path.

On East it looks to be battle royal of 46 wins teams, and even that battle royal won't include more than 4 teams.

Like, Hornets are legit treat for playoffs after winning 19 games, because ... why not?

East is so bad that even tanking teams on East will have hard times sucking on purpose.

Celtics and Pacers without best player for a year.
76ers with semi retired Embiid with no news about his health
Bucks still on verge of trading Giannis
Nets without any talent
Wizards have to suck to save pick

That's 6/ 9 teams. Cavs, Knicks, Magic are only teams that are even trying to compete. Pistons, Raptors, Hawks can make moves to win now but will they?

And Bulls and Heat are neither good enough to be serious nor bad enough to tank, and probably still need to make moves.

All i can say is... while the top prize is AJ... the next prize is.... a player whose ceiling is a prime.. Banchero?

So yeah... im fine exiting the tanknwars

Sure, that might indicate we have a good record, or that we win the east. But this says fifth best odds of winning the title. It's a lot of respect from Vegas, with money on the line.

Man you’ll got to include that pic of Houston who’s looking a lil swole.. AB needs to hit that gym with Caleb.

Caleb was already looking swole since last year.... He's looking more cut and define this off-season too. He keeps on trying to max out his potential... Gotta love that.

[Orlando Dawg]

JI probably already knows he’s getting traded that’s why.

[basketballRob]

It's good to see Suggs on the court.

TBF.. none of us would like Caleb to be quicker/faster rather than Swole/Cut

I guess he is transitioning to become a stretch 4 rather than a wing like we hoped

Yeah.. I thought he was gonna ease himself slowly in training camp

Lol..... You don't like him much do you? Saw you message about this on the Shammgod thread as well.

[bigdogdylan5]

I am surprised we haven’t gotten any news on Paolo extension wasn’t the deadline a day after finals?

[RookieStar]

Sooo.... ATL reloading as well.

Are they a threat to us? We face them 4x right? Our record gonna be in danger.

Suggs can lock Trae but Dyson can lock Bane. Jalen and Franz are probably a wash with a slight advantahr to us. WCJ probably gonna get dominated by KP agaon so ot boilsndown to Paolo?

Nothing to talk about till the draft... unless we talk about Swole Caleb?

Its not even July yet. Way to early to be oogling guys muscles

[Knightro]

Let's say that Atlanta does have the inside track on Alexander-Walker...

Guards/Wings available in free agency
-Ty Jerome
-Dennis Schroder
-Gary Trent Jr.
-Malik Beasley
-D'Angelo Russell
-Chris Paul
-Luke Kennard
-Tyus Jones
-Tre Jones
-Russell Westbrook
-Sam Merrill
-Bruce Brown
-Malcolm Brodgon
-Tre Mann
-De’Anthony Melton

Outside of Jerome and Beasley, none of these guys would cost the full MLE I can't imagine.
