2016-2017 NBA Free Agency/Offseason Thread

[#1 pick]

If the Hawks offered him a five year max then why wouldn't it be done deal by now? You can't afford horford and Dwight and to get both even if they could would be dumb

Don't worry, we got a plan.

 

[My neck and my back]

It's official...Dirk signing with us if KD fall through

 

[Bilz]

Its not even just that salaries are inflated, it's worse this year because the salary floor is increasing dramatically. The guys already under contract are now "underpaid" and the money they should be getting under normal inflation has to be handed out to free agents signed this year.

And just think, we cold've locked Jimmy down 2 years ago for 12M, but we didn't want to go higher than 11M

honestly, prob even better off having him locked up an extra year at current contract then him becoming an UFA in 2 summers from now

hed be miserable as shyt at 12M too right now ... so Im cool with it

Celtics signing Durant and Horford to max deals and sending sullinger and amir to the Rockets in a sign in trade

I want credit for this when the news media picks up on this...

We should know about horford tonight

Seems like we want to add horford even if we don't get Durant

But plan a is Durant/horford

Plan b is just horford and maybe deng on a short deal

Plan c is Dwight and deng on short deals

Plan d is overpay whoever is left on either one year deals or one plus a team option to maintain our cap space

Yo on the real, you can't help but Kobe Bean Bryant when you look at Dirk Nowitzki's situation. Homie took that big ass paycut to supposedly help his team win, but all they have to show for it is Wes Matthews

Bean was a visionary... get paid while you can, it's not your job to help the billionaire owners out.

Mamba mentality.

Uh huh... Don't act like I didn't see your temper tantrum last night you fugazi

 

[Brozay]

Lmao @ using other shyt contracts to make you feel better about your teams shyt contract

lol exactly .. Harrison Barnes bout to make double what steph curry making. These cats gota fire their agents on gp.

 

[CSquare43]

Looking like Steph Curry's contract is coming up at the absolute perfect time for him (next year when the cap goes up even more.....).

 

[Ashyneezz]

Anyone want Dirk in a SnT?

We at least gotta get something

 

[Brozay]

Can we still fire Gar?

I dont know breh, Im just living with the reality we have right now ... all we can do as fans tbh

What I suggested could work though, just saying... Instant top 3 team...
