2014 Nba Off Season Thread

Wolves been trying to get rid Martin ever since he got there.

If the Cavs send bennett, thompson, waiters, contracts and 2 first rounders for martin and love. wolves are accepting that

Martin's deal isn't so toxic that they'd use Love just to dump his salary. There's worse dead weight on the team they can't give away. At least Martin can still shoot somewhat. Besides, if you're swapping the $6.5 mil salary Martin in exchange for Bennett's nearly $6 mil rookie scale deal, all you did was swap similar contracts but got back a much crappier player back. Martin was only a sticking point in the Golden State talks because Minny woulda had to take back Lee's $30 mil left and they don't wanna do that and pay Klay too

The guy Minny would love to give away is Budinger, not necessarily Martin. Martin is still useful in a reduced role. Meanwhile they don't know if Budinger will ever be the same player again

GOAT Danny Ainge has that Bogans contract still to deal I believe. Another draft pick for nothing

Bulls making a push for Love?

"Sources say that the Bulls, though, have re-entered the race and would appear to be the biggest threat to the Cavs thanks largely to theGolden State Warriors' resolute unwillingness to add longtime Wolves target Klay Thompson in any deal.

Although the full extent of the Bulls' offer wasn't immediately known, it is believed Minnesota would seek a package from Chicago featuring forward Taj Gibson and defensive ace Jimmy Butler in addition to other assets. The Bulls shelved their Love interest while trying to sign Carmelo Anthony away from the New York Knicks but, according to sources, have re-emerged as contenders."

Butler and Rubio have the Same agent and it ain't Duffy.

The offer was better a month ago

 

[Majestic Pape]

Yes because he'll have to put up those kind of numbers just to maintain draft relevancy. Chinese basketball by and large sucks and is only a known thing because they pay better.

He's not going to be forgotten about because he plays a year in China, it's not like he'll fall out of the lottery or some shyt.

He's not going to be forgotten about because he plays a year in China, it's not like he'll fall out of the lottery or some shyt.

Exactly he'll still have the combine, workouts and so on and potential will still be there in fact it may not hinder him at all.

 

[Majestic Pape]

Why would you prefer a package with Gibson and Butler instead of a package highlighted by Wiggins. Hell, I'd rather have a package that included Waiters and Bennett.

 

[G.O.A.T]

lol @ that offer. Cavs can't be dumb enough to think Minny would take Taj/Butler to force them to up their offer even more

 

[Majestyx]

so Pau comes off the bench if love goes to the bulls

 

[GoldenGlove]

What if it's Butler, Gibson and Mirotic to start the package off though?

 

[CarltonJunior]

You know Minnesota loves their europeans though

That's a little bit different.

I'd still rather have Andrew Wiggins than anybody else listed because he's the only one I can see becoming a superstar, even though I'm not sold on him yet... with Gibson and Butler even with improvement I already know what they're going to be. I feel like Waiters, Bennett, and Mirotic all could become All-Star or borderline All-Star players if placed in the right situation (even though Bennett completely shamed himself last season).
