i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

he owes us

rip to the biggest man, the fundamental, the lover of The Crow

“We, as an organization, really have to begin to question everything. Is it me people don’t want to play with? Is it Rick (Carlisle)? Is it Mark (Cuban) and some agents and players hold a grudge because he blew up the 2011 champions? Nobody truly knows. Over the last five years, we have been continuously in for the truly big names in free agency, but all we achieved in the end was that we got them more money and a better contract elsewhere,” Dirk told a German newspaper recently. “As for me personally, I don’t truly care how much I make these days, my main focus is on playing for a winner.”

i hear california is nice in the winter

its hard to imagine the spurs missing the playoffs ever again

theyll do it when they have to tank for the next duncan

Draymond arrested on assault charges at a protest?

Hey maybe skinny Kyle Lowry can help sully discover his inner skinny person

one year deal def a great weight loss opportunity

ziller seems to be the only person i've seen who likes the evan turner contract http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2016/7/11/12128078/nba-free-agency-kevin-durant-new-york-knicks-chicago-bulls-winners-losers

great to see tim enjoying himself

amazing

i really grew to love the guy after years of he's-so-boring indifference (being a wagon suns fan in the mid oughts). i think it was that three he hit in overtime in 08 iirc that i was like ok i give up i love you

also when he did the picture with TP pointing guns at fake Joey Crawford

lol thon maker fouled out of summer league

hah didn't think it was possible. 40 minute game and 10 fouls allowed

link broken goon

oh it was this griffin to boston rumor https://twitter.com/KeithSmithNBA/status/752565860632391680

hmm

no f'n way

go doc go

having a hard time imagining how this cld be possible unless the clips want to blow it up

clips should blow it up imo

ya prob

it's the usual dilemma--they should blow it up but how can they get good value back

trade for scrubs and draft picks and tank this year and get a good draft pick on top of it.

lolclippers

i dont believe the clips are gonna blow it up, not for a second

yeah theres no reason really.

yeah they can reasonably expect to make the conference finals at least

like, theyre the #3 team in the west at least, got a megabillionaire owner, a title-winning coach, 3 all-nba players, 2nd biggest nba market and just stomped on the lakers as the premier socal franchise, and theyre just gonna split bc...cant get past the 2nd rd? like they dont have a good shot at it this year?

I guess the concern troll here is that cp may be in decline shortly, Blake needs psychological help + is extremely juicy, doc just gave his kid a huge allowance bump, hack a deandre is boring, might as well get value while you can because you're not plowing over the dubrants any time soon

but that is a v hinkian view of things

obv a bit of a gamble when youre an injury or two away from the finals
