Dude finessed Balmer into that huge deal in L.A. and sailed off into early retirement.

Kinda gotta respect it.

Kyshawn George is gonna be a really good player. I think he’s going to be an under the radar guy too in Washington so there will be plenty opportunity this year to stack his cards.

He’s got a little bit of everything in his bag right now. Shoot, pass, defend, NBA body. A couple years and he’s going to be having the Jalen Johnson leap.

Rockets extend Jalen Green, 3 year contract at 107M. TM3 getting 112M, 4 year contract.

More than ever, it pays to be a role player.

Jalen got the Jordan Poole deal. Now he can chuck 25 shots a game without any care in the world. Not that he cares before but now he really doesn’t have to

At least the rockets were smart enough to only sign a 2+1. That leaves plenty of flexibility to trade him

In comparison the Trey deal looks like the steal of the century. Lock up a guy who’s actually good and can contribute to winning for 4 years. All you need is for the Pels to trade BI and Trey to stay healthy

Last year is a player option though. 3 year contract doesn't give you a lot of flexibility IMO. And I think they might be closer to contending than they think, if they end up needing a Top 10-15 player (and they have the assets to get one), that deal can cost them big.

If you need the Trey deal was a steal, I assume you haven't seen JJ's yet.

You say this like this is not common knowledge that he’ll be a steal, lol. Reddit has tons of posts about the kid during the draft.

Just looked it up lol 5/150

I like him for a sneaky first time all star this year.

yiguiri2002 · 10-21-2024, 08:27 PM

Sengun at 185M over 5 years.

Deal of the offseason IMO

Imagine trying to buy tickets to a Sixers game to see your best player on the court. It's roulette at this point.

Bosoxfan5990 · 10-22-2024, 12:13 PM

Imagine building your team around two oft-injured stars and them being injured?

GOATcards · 10-22-2024, 06:13 PM

nice of the thread to be relevant for once, can someone besides a chatbot years/months from now summarize the 860+ posts so far

PKIPP · 10-22-2024, 06:22 PM

Knicks haven't realized season started. At least they didn't pack the defense.

Bosoxfan5990 · 10-22-2024, 07:10 PM

Jayson Tatum is pretty good, huh?

Kingofkings1281 · 10-22-2024, 07:14 PM

Celtics on pace to shoot almost 60 threes haha

The Knicks shooting almost 60% and down by 20 is insane.

Knicks thought they had a shot this season. That's cute.

blackbears86 · 10-22-2024, 08:28 PM

Actually very impressive how good the Celtics look and it's game one.
