lol xp

yeah if you sign dwight you basically have to admit that he's gonna miss like 1/3 of the regular season games but just 2 playoffs ago he like singlehandedly beat the blazers w/ LMA and he can still bring it when he wants to

i think houston went really sour cuz the culture is shit & harden is a bad teammate. also i think that up & down style was tough on dwight's body. if i was a team like the blazers or the hornets that could get him out of the spotlight and put him in a system that is more amenable to his strengths i would try & sign him provided he doesn't want $130 million or whatever.

basically i just wouldn't hold last year against him

like if the heat could convince him to take 4/80 or something i would do it. i think he's still good.

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 04:53 (seven years ago) link

i'm a dwight believer too idk if i want him on the celtics though

ciderpress, Friday, 1 July 2016 04:54 (seven years ago) link

if moz is getting 4/65 and joakim is getting 4/72 then even 4/100 on dwight wouldn't be insane imo

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 04:55 (seven years ago) link

dwight on the celtcs seems like a bad idea even tho he'd be a great fit w/ their roster

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 04:55 (seven years ago) link

that's a pretty fair assessment jord, but i just assume he is going to want the full max and prob won't ever consider going to a PNW city like portland, he is too image-conscious to fully be a backseat guy

Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 04:56 (seven years ago) link

yeah i don't trust dwight to do what's best for himself lol

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 04:57 (seven years ago) link

i wouldnt sign dwight to more than 3 years

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 04:57 (seven years ago) link

unless he's willing to take less than max

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 04:58 (seven years ago) link

did cuban offer dwight the max yet isn't that destiny

Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 04:59 (seven years ago) link

they seem to be putting all their eggs in the whiteside basket

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 04:59 (seven years ago) link

might as well max out d will too

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 04:59 (seven years ago) link

chandler parsons to memphis would be......... really weird

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 05:00 (seven years ago) link

i am pretty okay w/ this parsons thing but ugh that a guy on that level gets the max and i'm doing all i can not to picture pdx's perimeter D with lillard, mccollum, and parsons as starters yeesh

Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:01 (seven years ago) link

parsons is an ok defender iirc

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:03 (seven years ago) link

parsons is fine if he's like your second best perimeter defender. but if he's your best then that might be bad.

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 05:04 (seven years ago) link

yeah that's more what i'm getting at

Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:05 (seven years ago) link

lol i'd been hearing for months 'fans gonna be shocked at these numbers', i'd been hearing 'kent bazemore is gonna get paid more than ppl suspect' for the past six months, i thought i was ready, then i look on twitter real quick before i go to bed and realize i ain't ready for shit

balls, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:06 (seven years ago) link

yeah this is truly insane

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:07 (seven years ago) link

would still be surprised if he gets offered that much tbf

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:07 (seven years ago) link

not even sure he's a starter

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:08 (seven years ago) link

lakers 4/64 for moz.gov confirmed

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:12 (seven years ago) link

he did pretty well as a starter for us and love the dude as a person, will miss that baze gaze, but at the same time i'd feel weird about letting demarre walk (and i was cool w/ that move even though he was my favorite player on the hawks) but betting huge on bazemore.

balls, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:13 (seven years ago) link

ha i thought that mozgov lakers stuff i saw was a joke. goodness.

balls, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:14 (seven years ago) link

so based on all this i guess barnes is still getting the max despite the whole shitting the bed in the finals thing

Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:18 (seven years ago) link

i really liked baze this year but it's hard to reckon w/ that number. i think he'll be good for whoever signs him tho.

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 05:19 (seven years ago) link

if barnes doesn't get the max it's only cuz he turned down the max to play for a better team

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 05:19 (seven years ago) link

what is the new max tho?

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:20 (seven years ago) link

25-30?

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 05:20 (seven years ago) link

If the Warriors match Barnes getting the max they're nuts

Matt Armstrong, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:29 (seven years ago) link

25ish for someone of barnes' experience I think xp

Matt Armstrong, Friday, 1 July 2016 05:30 (seven years ago) link

if barnes is intent on making max money he'll be wearing a different uniform imo

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 05:31 (seven years ago) link

parsons offer is apparently 4/94 btw

Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 08:38 (seven years ago) link

Byron didn't die for this! FFS lakers

(•̪●) (carne asada), Friday, 1 July 2016 12:05 (seven years ago) link

whiteside staying w/heat i guess

call all destroyer, Friday, 1 July 2016 13:06 (seven years ago) link

and the one we've all been waiting for...

...ish smith to detroit for 3/19

if young slothrop don't trust ya i'm gon' rhyme ya (slothroprhymes), Friday, 1 July 2016 13:09 (seven years ago) link

i like that clarkson deal

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 13:12 (seven years ago) link

i was sort of interested in what the heat would do if whitesite left but i think they'll be happy getting him for under $100m

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 13:12 (seven years ago) link

that's............. a lot of money for derozan

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 13:19 (seven years ago) link

probably a deal to toronto felt like they had to do. the front office was on the ropes until they made it past the first round, now they can kind of coast a few more years on lowry/derozan 2nd round+ exits unless the east cobbles together greater competition somehow.

i like that clarkson deal

― J0rdan S., Friday, July 1, 2016 9:12 AM
