Official 2013 NBA Offseason Thread

Between Kyrie, Bynum and Andy, they might not play 82 games combined

I'll be happy if all three of them can play 70+

If one of them has to sit b/c of injury I just hope it's not Kyrie. He's the heart of the team.

Is that enough for a hitman for brooks and perks?

Buc Em & JJ Watt



Will showcase his underrated play making skills.. Don't even have to talk about the ratchet

You hear Perk had knee surgery yesterday? Darnell is trying to float the rumor that Perkins knew he had the surgery upcoming and lied to the Thunder in his exit interview then purposely delayed it til this late in the summer so he wouldn't be traded. As for the TPE, completely not going to happen, but in theory we could use it to trade for Asik and begin the process of fazing Perkins out since he obviously won't be able to be moved until at the soonest this summer when someone will possibly want his expirer, but more than likely next yr's trade deadline. It can also be used to bid on amnestied players and Artest named OKC as a team he'd consider. Of course, we wouldn't consider him but wishful thinking

The difference is that this offseason we've gotten better, and addressed our issues.  The Heat have gotten older, and not made any moves.

With who?

the Pacers?

^ yea I saw that on twitter when the summer league game was on.. Hopefully that changs their minds on the amnesty..

But he is a big body that has done well against Dwight (mainly fouling and throwing a body on him and positioning).. But still.. Would love to get Asik, especially since Dwight, did have back surgery.. So it takes away a solid backup AND Asik is a rebounding machine and plays good defense

Never would doubt him. Going to put up 30 a night while the team ekes out 40 wins. Should dump Pau and at least try for the lottery. 

 

[suberzat1]

the Pacers?

West and cj Watson got resign.... psyco t about to leave.

welp, looks like Kobe is gonna be making like $30+ mil per season in his next contract

The funny thing about Ryan Hollins is that he's the only power forward OR center on the Clippers' bench right now.

YIKES!

Ryan Hollins is playing the goon role

YIKES!

JJ Redick is going to EAT on that Clippers squad.

Broussard took a risk on a likely scenario

If Bynum plays and stay healthy then the Cavs are the best young team in the league

Behind GS. If (IF) he plays 60+ games, I think the Cavs could have a '12-'13 Golden State like season.

Bruh, if Bynum can remain healthy

A healthy Cavs roster is a PROBLEM (will never happen, though).

Perfect time for the Cavs to trade Andy and their 1st for Pau. PERFECT.

Nah, Pau is on the downswing, +

Mike Brown is going to plant Pau 20 feet from the hoop again.

...

'13-'14 looks like it's gonna be entertaining as all hell. NBA League pass shall be purchased.

[bhzmafia14]

at Yikes

Who thinks Griffin and/or Jordan will take their game to another level next season? I don't.

 

[thapointguy]

Kobe won't pass the ball...
Kobe won't take a pay cut...
Kobe won't win his 6th...
You get the idea

 

[awwsome]

Eh, Kobe earned that contract it's not his fault that Jim Buss is an idiot.

 

[ValarMorghulis]

Come on Mamba..... really?

 

[definition of dopeness]

For me to sit here and say, ‘Oh yeah, I’m just going to take a huge pay cut. Nah, I’m going to try to get as much as I possibly can.”

 

[finallyfamous]

Schedule releases in a few weeks.

 

[ValarMorghulis]

I'm shook now...

10 mil per is more than reasonable
