It's really not up to them. If he opts in, then they can't really do anything about it.

Well, he claims the same thing Ferry claims, which is Ferry didn't say those things, he was reading someone else's statement.
I think he may be the only person in the US of A, who believes Ferry.

I tried to talk him down off the ledge, in the Hawks thread.
I failed.
Going to miss him this season.

I love the Bucks new uniforms.
The Sixers are nice but I didn't really see anything wrong with the ones they had last year. I can't believe we had to have Jerami Grant as one of the three players modeling the jerseys. My god that's terrible. Might as well have mailed Saric a jersey to get a pic of him in it.
The Hawks jerseys are nice as hell if those are their real jerseys.
The Clippers might be the worst I've ever seen. They used NBA Live 2000 font and just stuck it on last year's jersey. It makes no sense.

The plan from the beginning was for him to come over in the 2016-17 season. If he doesn't come over for that season then I'll start worrying.

I spent so much damn time playing NBA Live 2000 on my PC. I even had a controller, it was exactly like a Playstation controller. It was unreal, graphics were A1, way better than the Playstation IMO. I used to do full drafts and full seasons. Sometimes I would literally trade every single player to teams based on the cities they grew up in and play whole seasons like that. Being a kid was great

Saric definitely won't pull a Vasquez. He wants to come over, he just has a complicated buyout. He's contractually bound until the summer of 2016. In order for him to play next season in The NBA, a new buyout would have to be drawn up. The Sixers can only pay up to 600K I think, and his buyout would be well over 2 million.

I disagree. Love would've been bad against this small ball Dubs. Who on the Dubs would you be ok for Love to guard?

TBH, I think tanking and terrible records my keep Saric away or his agent my force a trade to a better situation. Most top end international players tend to want to sign with winning teams or teams in large market cities (New York, Brooklyn, LA, Houston, etc.)

It would have been a struggle on that end, but I don't think he would be a complete pylon on that end, plus he would provide elite boarding. I can't imagine that that Kevin wouldn't be able to guard a draymond or something. When you're as potent as Kevin is offensively, (and this is just my opinion on him. I hold his offensive capabilities in high regard) you can find ways to maybe hide him, or at worse go zone or something.
Ultimately, (and this is the case with Kyrie too) his offensive output and attention that he would create supercedes his defensive ineptness and at the end of the day, you have to have your best players on the floor if possible.

I never mentioned it and it probably didn't make sense since I doubt they practiced it but when GS went small, I felt like Cleveland playing a zone may have made sense.

It's puzzling why they didn't resort to zone at least for a few posessions. They played some zone throughout the second half of the season, and yielded some fantastic results.
Perhaps playing zone allows for their size to remain on the floor
