  1. The Grizz would of course have to have another PG lined up and maybe take one on the draft. Ayton + JJJ could work however.
  2. The worst enemy is a scored whore
  3. Even if you have 5 guys* who can play 36 minutes a game, you need guys to fill the other 60 minutes. *there were only 10 guys in the league who averaged >36 minutes, none of whom played for PHX
  4. If Ayton is not moved, then next year they can not aggregate salaries. Meaning that they would have do a 1 for 1. So this is the only chance to get more than 1 guy for him (and they have no picks at all to spice it up).
  5. This would give the Suns a bunch of guys including a rookie scale player (maybe someone like Nick Smith or Brice Sensabaugh) and they get off Ayton. Portland makes Dame happy and still keeps #3.
  6. Even if the remaining roster averages just 2m per player they will be over the 2nd apron. So many restrictions will be in place like no MLE or no signing buyout players. If they keep those guys until the end of their contracts they will also lose draft position (sorry WSH).
  7. you need 15 guys on a roster. PHNX has 5. So they need to get 10 guys on minimum/2 way deals, https://www.spotrac.com/nba/free-agents/ start at about the $5m mark and give me 10 guys who are not walking corpses.
  8. In the early 2010's (pre-Hybrid) I lived in Montreal. The cars would rattle my windows during practice. I lived a good ways from the track.
  9. For WSH, if you waive CP3 you are spending 30 million for some 2nd rounders and a swap? That makes even less sense than the PHX side.
  10. The Braves have 16 home runs of 450+ feet. The next best team has 6. Amazing power.
  11. I starting to think the new Suns owner is a god damn moran…
  12. Mavs: Ayton, Olynyk Jazz: Bertans, #10 Suns: Hardaway, McGee, #16 Mavs get 2 bigs Suns get 3 players (maybe they could get Lively/Dick/Bufkin) Jazz move up to to get 2 top 10 draft picks
  13. The suns need to make 2 for 1 trades. The only way Beal works is Ayton + Shamet. That is the opposite of a 2-1. That big 3 would be over the cap and almost at 1st apron by themselves.
  14. Giving harden 3/150 or 4/200 isn’t going to win either, and will sink the team for the next 10 years. Next years FA class is much better. You give it a go with a hard nosed coach who is going to demand improvement (and maybe a few vets for culture - not taking the young guys to treasures every night).
  15. Yes. The difference between the guy at 4 and 12 isn’t that great in this years draft — and having back 2024 means you don’t have to force trying to win and could avoid the upcoming Harden disaster.
  16. It’s almost 1/3 of the season, basically it’s costing Ja $10m just in salary. I hope keeping it real hot some 15 year olds on IG was worth it.
  17. The Zion trade I posted earlier this week in the season thread is the best they are going to get. CHA gets Zion + #14 for Hayward + #2 No way OKC would give up Jalen. Maybe Mann, Poku, Dort + a pick
  18. Does something like this get it done? Or does Hero have to be in it? Beal has maybe the 2nd worst contract in the league, so getting anything for him would be a win IMO.
  19. To be fair, he didn’t specify which game. I heard he is kinda dope at call of duty.
  20. The finals are a wrap, it’s time for the off season drama. VanVleet was the first chip to fall. Here are the other player options (I’m expecting Middleton, Porzingis and Trent to opt-in). Fred VanVleet $22.8 million from Raptors Declined James Harden $35.6 million from 76ers TBD Draymond Green $27.6 million from Warriors TBD Khris Middleton $40.4 million from Bucks TBD Kristaps Porzingis $36 million from Wizards TBD Kyle Kuzma $13 million from Wizards TBD Gary Trent Jr. $18.6 million from Raptors TBD Josh Hart $13 million from Knicks TBD Bruce Brown $6.8 million from Nuggets TBD Jordan Clarkson 14.3 million from Jazz TBD Donte DiVincenzo $4.7 million from Warriors TBD Talen Horton-Tucker $11 million from Jazz TBD
  21. Pels looking to get to #2. Zion for Heyward and 2? Who says no?
  22. Jokic proves he is the best player in the world.
  23. Clutch! Bring it home Nugs
