NBA Offseason Discussion Thread

[PHX]

Don't get why Paul wouldn't wanna resign with that team besides the fact of the Clippers history. That team is gonna be able to make noise and be one of the most fun teams to watch in the NBA. Read about that they now wanna try and sign Jamal Crawford which would just make that team even deeper at the guard position. Just a perfect situation imo for Paul just on the bigs he gets to play with alone who he can have oop heaven with.

As for Deron I knew Jersey wasn't gonna be able to do the shit that they wanted and Deron was gonna end up not wanting to be there. With the move to brooklyn you would think they would be more aggressive in trying to build that team to draw.

 

[SAIYANS]

I don't get not making any moves. They could have at least placed a bid on Richard Jefferson for the sake of a draw. Heck Kirklenko, Dalembert, Rip, Landry, and a host of players while no big names would say we are trying to compete. As it stands they will probably re-sign Humomand call it a day, but that would not make them any better as they didn't even bring Sasha back yet and he was one of their better players.

 

[PHX]

Very dumb on their part not just cause of the big move to Brooklyn but just from a aspect of trying to make your team better. If this is really all they plan on doing just sitting on their hands then if I was Deron I'd be yelling trade me now asap. Guess they think cause of the whole Kim K think Hump is now gonna be this big name in the NBA lol

 

[SAIYANS]

Heck it would make sense for them to try to get Bynum for Deron. They want the whole hometown kid shit and he is from Jersey and Brooklyn, actually went to school in both places.

 

[PHX]

Didn't know that about him being from there. That wouldn't be enough to show him good faith but it would at least show we're doing something.

And watching NBA t.v I now get why Paul would only play out the next two years instead of just signing a deal right now since he'd make 25 plus million more if he waits so smart deal on his part. That team is gonna be a problem and who knows might go deep since the West is back to being wide open. Though I like the Mavs getting Odom. I would have picked the Mavs to go back to the finals if they would have got Chandler back to go with what they have.

Shit is getting heated

Adrian Wojnarowski writes that Dwight Howard has warned the Magic that unless they trade him, they will lose him for nothing

Kobe's wife is divorcing him, lmao.

"Cause when she leave yo' ass she gon' leave wit' half"

 

[SAL]

That marriage she entered into when she was 18 with a man who was accused of rape and defended himself by saying the buttfucking was consensual didn't last?

 

[PHX]

Apparently it's cause he cheated again. What a moron he was lucky she took him back the last time.

 

[SAIYANS]

They are already divorced as they came to the terms. Not surprising really, no player in the nba stays married it seems. Heck some players are smart and just hire escorts according to one report.

 

[PHX]

More like nobody period stays married anymore. Dude fucked up not getting a prenup though so that's gonna hurt his bank account.

 

[SAIYANS]

If you are married in CA like they were for 10 years, a prenup doesn't matter as courts have made you split assets anyhow under their laws

You are also common law spouses there after 7 years of being together last I checked.

Jeff Green missing the season after heart surgery...It has to be depressing to lose $9mil and a year of your prime career time, but the consolation prize turns out to be the grand prize: life. Good luck to Jeff Green.

 

[LaBrandon Aldridge]

Pretty sure he still gets paid...

 

[SAL]

His contract was conditioned on passing a physical. The Celtics don't have to pay him a dime.
