  1. OKC gave Caruso 20m a year for 4 years, and he started all of 3 games last year and averaged 7.1 points a game, lol...
  2. Seems like a good deal for Jabari. It's a little overpay for what he is right now, but with the way the cap will grow the next 5 years, and what we hope he develops into as a player, it should be a good deal. Or maybe it just becomes another trade chip next offseason like Jalen Green's extension did this year. Either way, that's a win for the team, and it guarantees Jabari is set for life if he's smart with his money. Can't blame anyone for doing that. Now extend KD for 1-2 years at a reasonable rate, and we are golden.
  3. Isn't it just a salary dump after giving Sexton that dumb deal after the Mitchell trade?
  4. This might be a dumb question, but how exactly is it illegal for a player to not score points so his friends can win an under bet? What law is being broken, or is this a contract issue with something buried in the terms of his NBA player agreement? I think the betting sites should be at fault for taking the risk, they know that someone may take advantage of their easily manipulated bets.
  5. Bring in Beasley for minimum once he's through this mess and let him rehab here. Would be awesome to have him coming off the bench as the 8-9th guy. Dude was in line to make at least a max MLE deal after a great year of 3+D with the Pistons.
  6. Yeah, for having such a high basketball IQ, Lebron just doesn't care about how the team could improve by him taking say 35m a year instead, and giving them more room to work with. Getting another ring with the Lakers would be infinitely more valuable to him and his legacy than an extra 20m in salary.
  7. I think the signing of Merrill may be more important to that end. Their cap is shooting up with the Mobley extension kicking in this year, and the Okoro/Ball swap was to drop salary for next year. It saves the Cavs 1m this year, but that's nothing. They are well over the 2nd apron right now, and that's without re-signing Ty. He's likely going to leave in free agency to a team with a full MLE, but the Cavs could still offer him and pay out the nose in luxury tax if he stays. I'm not really sure if they will or not. I do think the Cavs may try to move Garland though. He's making 39m and appears to be the most expendable of the top 4 guys. He's a young, promising player who could be attractive to a team partway through the process of rebuilding. He's their best opportunity to drop some salary and get a decent player back to fill the gap without losing much.
  8. New Orleans has proved to be morons, maybe trade Randle for Murray? Salaries are pretty close, you might be able to swap them for a couple of 2nds. Murray could be a good backcourt pairing with Ant, as he can share the ball, is a good defender and can run the offense for the 12 minutes when Ant's on the bench. I think if Murray gets out of NOLA, he will have a good bounce-back year.
  9. So after holding the Phillies to 1 run in 27 innings against Houston, the Phils are up 11-0 on the Braves in 3 innings so far tonight lol...
  10. I hope he does, couldn't happen a nicer franchise.
  11. They could have let Altuve have a crack at finishing this game. Adding a save to his record would be fun.
  12. 2 outs, and bringing in Hader? Is this just for "Save" stats?
  13. I'm kind of disappointed that we aren't down by 1 in the 8th, and able to smack around Pressley to win the game. Oh well, 2 more chances this weekend for it to happen.
  14. I think it's kinda nice of the empire to send Dedra to a prison sentence doing something she loves, building the Death Star until she dies.
  15. Do you think she knows that?
  16. I would imagine the Lakers wanted him to take it so they could trade him.
  17. I saw a tweet joking that Ace Bailey has already requested a trade from the Jazz, but man I could see it happening. Just look at that face announcing that the Jazz picked him. Lol...
  18. Make it 36 tomorrow, and continue to build on it in November!
  19. At this rate, they will win tomorrow 3-0.
  20. Fuck yeah! That was a rough inning, but no runs allowed!
  21. In his first 3 years with Charlotte, he played 44, 19 and 44 games. He has 1 year left on his rookie deal at 6.2m, and then he's an RFA next year. It's a desperate move by the Suns to get a cheap, but capable Center that may or may not play in half their games. I like it for the Rockets, it's a gamble.
  22. Twolves gonna have 2 French Centers next season, so that's cool.
  23. K K K Nice job Okert
  24. Walkoff hit by Jram against the Blue Jays in extra innings.
  25. I think I would rather seen Singleton at DH... Oof
