hoping the dubs can nab Andrew Nicholson on the cheap

This guy is on the top of my list of guys who will slip through the cracks and be wildly underpaid.

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.

bucks are cornering the market on syllables

the only difference this year is that a lot of teams are signing guys to $17 million per year contracts in the first 48 hours and still only using up like half their cap space

Yeah we'll see. It's hard to keep track of what's going on, but this feels like Wes Matthews writ large

Tim MacMahon
ESPN Staff Writer

Text message from Chandler Parsons on why he chose the Grizzlies: "I really believed in Coach Fiz. Nobody in the league has coached better wings than him. I trust [assistant coach J.B. Bickerstaff] with my life. They have nobody like me, and their veteran, experienced players are a perfect fit with me.

"Toughest decision of my life though. Portland is incredible."

So the grizzlies are spending roughly 80 million on 4 starters. And will win 48 games.

seems like a major long shot. his agent is playing the game tho

moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 1 July 2016 23:37 (seven years ago) link

apparently they super lowballed him with their first offer maybe he got mad

ciderpress, Friday, 1 July 2016 23:46 (seven years ago) link

I mean this has happened two years running with his agent leaking shit about his dissatisfaction, but it's the first time I can recall actual suitors being named
