Triple A 06-29-2015 10:43 PM

I hope Wade does not come to NY with his 55 games a year ass,,, Carmelo Anthony and Dwyane Wade doesn't seem like a winning combo..........

Simple Fan 06-29-2015 10:47 PM

Wade and Melody would make Lebron jealous, and maybe 2016 he joins them.

Simple Fan 06-29-2015 10:53 PM

Melody Lol Melo. Damn autocorrect.

Final year is optional and in terms of cap space, he just ate up almost a third of the Hornets cap for next season ($89 million).

Blazers sign Al Farouq-Aminu 4 years $30 million.

Emperor Smeat 07-01-2015 06:57 PM

Some NBA free agency stuff:

* Kevin Love staying in Cleveland after signing a 5 year, $100 million deal.

* Lakers rumored to be out of the LaMarcus Aldridge sweeps with the Suns and Spurs as the top favorites. Suns recently resigned Tyson Chandler with the idea to help persuade Aldridge to sign with them.

* Warriors and Draymond Green broke off talks with the big issue being the large gap between what the Warriors are offering and what Green wants in a new deal.

* Paul Millsap staying with the Hawks after signing a new 3 year, $59 million deal.

* Celtics signed Amir Johnson to a 2 year, $24 million deal.

Really dislike how much the Lakers sell Hollywood more than basketball when it comes to these pitches. Dont fucking bring TV execs to your negotiating table...matter of fact, leave everyone except the GM and head of bball ops.

McLegend 07-02-2015 06:16 PM

Awesome Sixers trade.

Ruien 07-02-2015 07:07 PM

Bulls got Butler locked in for awhile. Really hope he continues to improve but I have a bad feeling he will degrees next year.

Bad News Gertner 07-02-2015 07:29 PM

I bet my Jazz sign Lebron James. I just have a feeling this is the year.

Rondo 1 year deal with Sacramento. Getting a solid squad together.

Emperor Smeat 07-04-2015 12:58 PM

Spurs won the LaMarcus Aldridge sweeps with the deal in the 4 year, $80+ million range. Also helped swayed coach Popovich to stay for the rest of his current contract.

Sources tell Stein that Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, as of now, intends to coach out the entire five-year contract he signed last summer after the Spurs won the 2013-14 championship.

Lol. Lakers.

Bad News Gertner 07-04-2015 01:20 PM

Wow, big get by the Spurs.

Ruien 07-04-2015 07:50 PM

Spurs are amazing. The transition from Robinson was excellent and now the transition from Duncan seems to be happening with ease.

Emperor Smeat 07-05-2015 01:16 PM

Blazers fired their assistant coach for possibly costing the team a chance to resign LaMarcus Aldridge. Implied Blazers weren't going to bother with giving him a new deal which could have swayed how Aldridge went with his free agency talks.

Its the right decision, hope Meyers Leonard steps up next year.

Juan 07-06-2015 04:30 PM

David West to the Spurs, apparently.

:eek: Someone was actually that dumb to trade for Wallace.

Ruien 07-07-2015 05:53 PM

Golden State was letting David Lee basically go because he was coming off the bench. Seems like Golden State was acting in good faith to help Lee out.

Simple Fan 07-07-2015 06:51 PM

Yea he was making the most money on the team last year and set on the bench most the time. Wallace is pretty old and more suitable for the role of coming off the bench. Lee in Boston is a good fit I believe.

Ruien 07-08-2015 10:48 AM

Really sucks how weak the East is. Hope the Wizards land Durant next season. For the past 4 years it has been Heat/Cavs and below them Bulls/Indy and then a bunch of scrubs.

Bad News Gertner 07-08-2015 07:21 PM

Jazz resigned Joe Ingles

Suck it Spurs!

Ruien 07-08-2015 09:53 PM

Looks like Jordan will be heading back to LA. Disliked Paul and Griffin for being cry babies (after the game. Everyone complains in game) about calls not going their way. Now Jordan is reneging on a deal and not even picking up or calling Cuban to tell him.

Emperor Smeat 07-09-2015 03:37 PM

Cavs and Lebron agree to a new 2 year, $46.9 million deal with the 2nd year as an option just like his old contract. Also expected to opt out against after next season for another max contract deal.

Probably going to do that every year from now on to get the bigger pay days and go to whoever is the top East team at the time for the easy paths to the Finals.

ClockShot 07-10-2015 08:10 PM

Deron Williams took a buyout from Brooklyn and went to the Mavericks.

All that money for a new stadium, relocation, signing/acquiring big name free agents, etc. And it's gotten the Nets nothing.

Bad News Gertner 07-12-2015 11:29 AM

Jazz were able to convince 7"2 Tibor Pleiss to come over from Spain.

Pleiss
Gobert
Favors.

There may be some casualties next season. Good lord.

Bad News Gertner 07-25-2015 11:00 AM

The oldest player on the Jazz is Trevor Booker at age 27 years old. I can't remember the last time I've been so excited for the season to start.

Nark Order 07-25-2015 02:50 PM

The Kings are going to make the playoffs.

Nark Order 07-25-2015 02:51 PM

Yes, I realize that sounds obnoxious.

StuartFinnigan 08-04-2015 02:01 AM

Herd that the Cavs and Lakers might be worken on a deal for Kobe Bryant. Lakers need to rebuild while the Cavs window to win is now. Kobe on the Cavs could help put em over the top against a team like Golden State. Cavs are great the Warriors exposed them in the finals.

owenbrown 08-04-2015 01:03 PM

Starting to get the feeling StuartFinnigan might be Clerk

Simple Fan 08-04-2015 01:12 PM

Idk if it was Clerk, he wouldn't have given credit to GS Warriors, but the Kobe to The Cavs talk does sound Clerkish. He spelled Cavs right though so probably not Clerk.

Ruien 08-04-2015 02:07 PM

Where did Clerk go? Did he get sucked into the Darkness Forum by himself?

Bad News Gertner 08-06-2015 09:42 PM

Dante Exum tore his ACL. God fucking damn it.

Told you, Clerk couldn't spell CAVS right to save his life.

A healthy CAVS team is unbelievable
