That would be the obvious option. I'm suprised the Wizards aren't pursuing Rudy Gay

Lowry has signed a 100 m dollars 3 year contract, come to think of it this guy is an injury prone player don't you think the raptors over paid for him?

Well Curry is one of the few players who made the Warriors a really good team. I'm okay with his contract. I starting thinking when JJ Redick gets more paid than the best Quaterback in NFL right now. Redick isnt even a top20 player.

And LeBron said they don't need more Brons. They need more Scientist, engineers, teachers, physical therapist, police officer. Please tell me who wants to wake up early in the morning working close to 10hours a day and wont even make close to what a rookie makes 5hours on court after working for a week.

I hear you. But to lebrons point, for every nba player, there is at least a thousand really good ballers who will never go anywhere. The odds are way better if you are a scientist or engineer. And this is why I will always be an lbj fan...the amount this guy has donated to his own community's education is astounding...I am not sure I or most people have that kind of giving heart.

In other news, Im still waiting to see what cavs do. I saw one news somewhere where kyrie was traded to the suns. Thank God it was just rumor grin

Dan Gilbert nearly traded him for Bledsoe and PG o. LeBron james was the reason why the trade didnt happen, he told Dan he would not resign if it happened.

PG who wouldn't spend than a season in Cavs and Bledsoe can't even fit the system like Irving.
Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 12:08pm On Jul 03, 2017
Melo is most likely heading to Rockets

Now that's a team that can wound Warriors. Sadly, no defense...
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 2:46pm On Jul 03, 2017
Hopefully, it stays this way.

Starters: Curry, Klay, Durant, Draymond and JaVale (Screw Zaza, he just has to go) undecided
Bench: Livingston, Nick Young, Ian Clark, Iguodala, David West.
Reserve: McCaw, Matt Barnes, Jordan Bell, Damian Jones, James McAdoo..

I don't get it man, letting Paul, and Jimmy Walk? If Gordon doesn't sign, it is a disaster. The time to challenge Bron is now.

Forget it Bruh!! Celtics slept all through. Ingles resigned with Utah, his best buddy Hayward will definitely stay.. I'm just shook as to how the Celtics were hyped about FA and now it's like almost over.

where is roland17. the celtics offseason is looking bad imo
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 4:45am On Jul 04, 2017
KD took a $9.5 paycut. Made it easier to keep Shaun and Iggy shocked Klay and Draymond better fall in line when it's their time cheesy
Dude surely makes more money outside the NBA so it's Ok.

And people still hating him for this selfless act. angry

Hayward will decide tomorrow.. I think he'll return tp Utah but there's a very small chance he'll go to the Celtics.

Honestly, I am not too confident about the Hayward pitch. I will not be surprised if he returns to Utah, he has stability over there, however, he understands that roster can not win a conference as stacked as the west, and that is what we offer him. That being said the Cavs and Lebron still hold a strangle on the east, its not even up for a debate.

If he joins the Celtics, i think it would have everything to do with coach Brad Stevens. The Celtics are overdue for another "white man, who can jump".

I think Hayward will definitely stay with d utah jazz or he will move to college coach team (celtics Brad Stevens) which i think it might happen

$53M for 2 more years is pretty much the same contract he was signed with. I believe he would get the super max in 2018/19. Sure, he is selfless but he also got a $300M Nike shoe contract plus a ton more endorsements to boot. The guy is loaded and wants to win rings. I think letting a few millions go now to gain them back in the future is worth the deal.

I think we might lose Iggy in 2019 when Klay and Draymond are due a new contract but then again na speculation we just dey speculate. If we have won say 2 more rings by then, our valuation would be something ginormous plus the incomes that would have streamed from winnings plus the potential of the new building in SF can force Lacob and co to pay way above the cap.

If you ask me, I don't trust Klay Thompson would stay once his contract his up. Iggy and and Livingston too. I believe the team has much to gain from the young guys like McCaw, Jordan Bell and Damian Jones. If these guys show up big time along the way, it'll ease up things financially. We're paying much to win and will be paying much more after 2020.

And I agree with you. 2 more rings and Lacob shouldn't be giving a flying fúck how much to pay but he's a strict business man.
