legit curious why parsons chose the rotting grizz over the up and coming Blazers tho, like is he just a sunshine and bbq guy

players definitely don't have the same perception of team trajectories that us armchair GMs do
― ciderpress, Friday, 1 July 2016 19:37 (seven years ago) link
i felt like last year was gonna be the mavs and grizz last year in the offs but maybe the grizz can squeeze another year or 2 in now
― ciderpress, Friday, 1 July 2016 19:38 (seven years ago) link
i was prepared for some crazy deals but i was NOT prepared for evan turner 4/75
― J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 19:39 (seven years ago) link
am i crazy or even when evan turner got "good" under brad stevens he wasn't actually any good
he was pretty good as a 6th man down the stretch
― ciderpress, Friday, 1 July 2016 19:41 (seven years ago) link
evan turner has been an NBA twitter whipping boy for too long for many people to accept that he got pretty decent

my two cents on the evan turner deal: what
― Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 19:45 (seven years ago) link
im really sad parsons is going to memphis
― J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 19:46 (seven years ago) link
it would be hilarious if conley doesn't come back
― J0rdan S., Friday, 1 July 2016 19:47 (seven years ago) link
but if anyone was gonna risk $94 million on those knees the grizz make sense
re: turner by "pretty decent" i mean "works well under proper supervision in good system." which i think stotts can offer; it's not dissimilar to brad's
― if young slothrop don't trust ya i'm gon' rhyme ya (slothroprhymes), Friday, 1 July 2016 19:48 (seven years ago) link
re: turner'n hooch he def improved his offrtg...93 at its nadir to 102 last year. career high 4 win shares last yr. terrible 3pt shooter, though he's shooting it less often from distance. def an incredibly shrewd move to give him almost $20 million each year while he figures out some basic shit abt basketball.

I was v cool with parsons choosing memphis until 2 seconds later when it meant the blazers slipped and dropped their rainy day fund on evan turner's agent
― Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 19:49 (seven years ago) link
werent they like just scraping the salary floor last year? they got even more space than most teams

they were just at the floor but this year dame's supermax kicks in and there's a bunch of rfa's (harkless, Crabbe, Leonard) who are gonna get big to decent offers that Portland will likely match so afaik the big prize is evan turner
― Clay, Friday, 1 July 2016 19:56 (seven years ago) link
teletovic 3/30 to the bucks too, that sounds pretty good tbh

Solomon Hill@solohillThank you to the city of Indianapolis, the Pacers & the Simon family for making my dream of being an NBA player come true!
despite what i read a few posts ago i really thought this meant he finally made it to the nba

This guy is on the top of my list of guys who will slip through the cracks and be wildly underpaid.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 1 July 2016 22:00 (seven years ago) link
Beating a dead horse but that's the most fascinating thing about this era to me. These teams all go crazy the first month and then good players get contracts that are actually lower than what a fair market value would have been before the insanity.
