this assumes that AD has not told NO that he will only sign w LAL over this past off season, AD bought a house in LA, as well as signing w LBJ's agent. this, coupled w the timing of his announcement, suggests that, in all likelihood, he has told NO, privately, that he will sign w LAL this will somehow leaked out to the public, with this knowledge, BOS will not be willing to offer a good package
http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y6w2s7sq Should we expect this to be the trade if it actually goes down?
I would literally sell the farm(CP3, Capella & anybody else) outside of Harden for AD & Holiday(if possible) and try to sign a big fish this summer
Embid is NOT on his rookie deal, he signed a $150 extension that kicked in this year, JJ reddick is making almost $13 million alone and jimmy butler is eligible for super max in couple of months. so with that being said you'er fantasy line up of 5 super stars is hard to achieve unless you'er playing on NBA2k
After the Porzingis trade i'm starting to get scared about the Pelicans (another ass tier organization) sending AD to the Lakers...
Watch me nikka 25.4 - Embiid 25.4 - Davis 19.8 - Butler 2 - McConnell Renounce the rights for everyone else. That is 73.6 million. The cap is projected at around $108 million. Take $8 million off because of the empty roster spot cap holds. Kyrie can sign a 1 plus 1 with Philly or they can get one these players to do sign for a deal: Durant, Klay, Kawhi, or Kemba. If that doesnt work then they can renounce Butler and sign them and go for one of Cousins, Mirotic, Middleton, Tobias, or Rozier. Who knows, maybe Butler will sign for a little less to stay in Philly. He might not command as much as we think. I am playing 2k your playing nba jam manigg
Hey Lonzo: It doesn't matter what you think (or want)! What you do Lonzo Ball is you sit your ass down & don't say a word. You know your damn role and shut your damn mouth!
Why would anyone give a single f*ck what Lonzo wants? Lmao dude you are nothing in the NBA landscape.
LMAOOOOO We arent interested in outbidding the Celtics not because we cant..because we have better things to do than adding Anthony Davis.
Are you dumb or what? Jimmy butler is not gonna sign for $19 that’s only this year which is his last year he’s eligible for super max which is around the $40 million a year so I’ll let you do the math again and come back to me so I can grade you’er work. Kyrie Irving is eligible for max, need I go further explaining or do you get the point? Probably not but go ahead and fit in 5 superstars in one line up.
Yes, but his cap hold is only $20 million. Since he is restricted you can sign him after you sign another player.
Isn’t AD always injured? At this point the pelicans would be dumb to not take the offer... kinda a gamble for the lakers but they have to do something i guess.
However, there is growing concern — mentioned by opposing executives — that Irving may not re-sign with the Celtics even though he said in the preseason he plans to be back in Boston. Irving is frustrated with younger players on the team — he apologized for calling them out after a recent game — and he acknowledged he called LeBron to apologize for not understanding his leadership early in their Cleveland days. There might also be hesitancy on Boston’s end to give Irving a max contract given his knee injury history. Irving got in front of the story by saying he wants to be back. If he and the Celtics can’t agree on terms, he can pin blame on Boston, which has not lived up to expectations this season.
