THE 2015 NBA PRE SEASON THREAD: BEST WISHES TO LAMAR ODOM

[jpzx]

DeAndre Jordan has no offensive skillset, but that can be handled if that person runs PnR's to the rim along with finishing third in DPOY voting. Comparison that's hard to make. I could see WCS becoming that one day, but there are really rare cases where I think the D.Jordan comparison is applicable.

Bulls Give Jimmy Butler Max Qualifying Offer

The Chicago Bulls have given Jimmy Butler both a maximum qualifying offer and a regular qualifying offer.

The maximum qualifying offer covers five seasons at a full max.

If Butler wants to become an unrestricted free agent in 2016, he will have to take the regular qualifying offer and forgo a long-term deal. Butler can also sign an offer sheet with a rival team, but it has to be at least a three-year deal without any options.

You can't compare bis to DJ. Bis can't catch a beach ball

Don't do it Jimmy!

Then, yeah, they're not comparable. The weird thing is that I don't even consider DJ to have great hands. He's very good at catching lobs when he's soaring above everyone near by, of course. But plays in traffic, when the ball is below rim-level, his hands aren't that great.

And speaking of DJ,

Brad Turner ‏@BA_Turner · 11m11 minutes ago
DeAndre Jordan scheduled to meet with Dallas, Lakers, Knicks, all on Wednesday, sources. DJ will meet Clippers last on Thursday.

There's also been reports that Jordan has been spotted out hanging with Chandler Parsons in LA over the last few days.

Derozan gotta go

Jimmy ain't going anywhere yet unless the Bulls S&T him.

Toronto would be better to try a swindle a team into trading for demar. Get back a 1-2 key players and flourish in FA.

nobody trading for a shooting guard that can't shoot

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Cavs traded for Shump though

 

[rook]

nobody? I'm sure a few teams would be dumb enough to. This is the NBA we're talking about here

Been confirmed by people in Dallas that Chandler hung out with him in Houston for a couple days early last week then flew out to LA to kick it and recruit.

Somebody will be enamored with his 20 ppg and make a deal

 

[nick.]

you're right, i'm sure it's a few teams that'd trade for him

i don't think the Raptors are gonna be offered anything close to what they want tho.

 

[pmatic]

I wonder what Parsons does to recruit.

The only thing exceptional about Bledsoe is/was his triple double or whatever, against Westbrook.

Everything else is what it is, average.
I'm convinced E Bled fans are big fantasy league guys only. (AZ residents/Suns fans excluded)

Even in fantasy he's only good twice a week on odd months.

Dude is so average, so average.
I was going to pass on bagging on dude this time around but nah, he's average

I'll take him over Patrick Beverley, Jason Terry, and Pablo Prigioni

Kobe meat talk, makes me miss bravelude and his insights

Biyombo can't catch and isn't even close to being the athlete that DJ is

 

[shoeking2102]

Why are people giving credence to random tweets?

Imagine if the Lakers had to deal with Okafor's social media forays after Nance's.
