They're not losing money. They signed for all of the guaranteed money that was available at the time and people thought those deals were :ohhh: If a player stayed healthy and didn't fall off athletically, he could make more in today's market then last year's, but it's all a gamble.


Yes .. That's losing money they could have been making. And they don't ever get it back, no matter what deal they sign when their current deal is up.

They said Kobe was keeping all those Free Agents from signing with LA because they didn't want to play with him.

Looks like there's something else in LA keeping players away

:dame:

Not really, 16 mill for a solid starting center is about the average nowadays .. You got Kent bazemore commanding 20 mill, you got Jeremy Lin comin off the bench at 14 mill .. So a starting center who can be a nice defensive anchor while Zubac develops at 16 mill is not bad. Again, when the cap goes up again next year, it's guna look good.... Now, this all falls on how mozgov performs, but this is the same guy who put up 30 and 15 in a finals game in 2015 .. Tyrone lue simply didn't use him because he went small, but that's not to say he's not capable

Mosgoz is a defensive anchor? I dunno about that breh

I dont trust bigs with bad backs either ... dude been in the league for 6 years, about to join his 4th squad and has never really been a difference maker tbh

Report: ‘Traction’ gaining between Dwight Howard and Atlanta Hawks

Dwight Howard is looking for a new place to call home, and it just might be Atlanta.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski, the former Rockets center found “traction” in his meeting with the Hawks on Friday as he “made a strong connection” with the team.

Although Howard most likely won’t get a max deal, it seems that the decision of where he’ll go next is down to Atlanta and Boston. The scale may be tipping towards Georgia.
