2016-2017 NBA Free Agency/Offseason Thread

Delly was really good in college though. I remember people would say he couldn't defend when he was coming out of college. Now he struck it big purely as a defender.

I feel a lot of people just don't make it because they don't understand the work and dedication needed to make it.

Yea,I'm not going to say he has no talent,because he does obviously.

But when you get past the Lebrons,Westbrooks,Currys,Durants,etc I think it boils down to opportunity and luck,I mean Jeremy Lin and Delladova did their thing in college,but you got guys like Corey Fisher,Scottie Reynolds,Kalin Lucas who were beasts in college at major schools who never suited up in an NBA game or if they did it was a call up 10 day type deal,as I gotten older I realize a lot of guys have the same talent as the lower NBA players they just didn't get the opportunity or an injury or their own bad decisions cost them a chance at the league.

Horford is more likely to not return, but I don't think either is coming back

Ya'll trippin like hell to where I don't know where to start. Business wise, it makes zero sense to lose Horford. He's a top tier player, an asset, and once you sign him, you get the MLE and the Bi-Exception. That's something you do NOT get with any other signing for the Hawks. That is critical if Atlanta wants to sign a backup PG or even split the MLE to get more players. Zero sense. It's far more likely Millsap who is an asset who can ACTUALLY get us assets is moved if we decide to go that route. If you gonna say shyt like Atlanta gonna lose Al, at least just be homerish about it. Don't try to act like it make sense when it don't.

All posturing

Cleveland got the scoop.

Bron/Rich Paul put out the word.

Gotta make Riley sweat a little in order for Wade to get his 20+ mil
