2020-21 NBA Offseason thread: Officially a wrap

[MVP]

Ranks your best off-season moves so far:
1. Lakers
2. Blazers
3. Suns
4. Hawks (they may shoot to number 2 if they get Bogdan)
5. Mavs

Do any of the Warriors championship teams steal one game against the 2020/21 lakers?

Nope. 72-10 Bulls would be light work for them too.

This looks right to me.

The fresh feeling of inevitability coming from ALA early this season

Last year's Clippers team would've ethereal them. This is coming from a Lakers and a Clippers fan.

Didn't read through all the pages from the weekend but was it discussed how Danny Ainge has now had 3 max type guys walk away for nothing?

 

[dman14]

Too bad there’s no PGs left on the market. Maybe they’re working on a trade for someone like George Hill.

darren collison?

 

[thekillerj23]

Lakers got better, stay healthy and prolly repeat again

 

[lawdog1]

darren collison?

Think he decided to stay retired.

War chests.

Didn’t know Pelinka was that good...he worked magic this off-season. Then don’t forget he came out with that Suge Knight promo saying they wanted a young player to pair with AD. I’m sure it got the attention of all great players on rookie extensions to get ready.

Damn what's wrong with Myles?

Classic DA "almost" damage control

Not bad for not knowing the cap.

Young

Lol

Klutch acquiring the Lakers was the best signing ever.

I’ll give Pelinka his props once LeBron leaves or ever slows down.

The biggest thing he’s done is get out the way.

nah, magic had to get out the way

Could be. GM's don't typically come out and say "we failed miserably handling this situation."

Your guy did the same thing when he couldn't get a meeting with PG and missed out on Kawhi. He wasn't gonna come out and say damn I'm pissed we're f*cked.

There will always be some level of saving face or diplomacy.

 

[MVP]

Eh, Rob scrambling after the Kawhi sweepstakes last year and the non Klutch signings/trades this season. Give that man his flowers. He's been more than competent.

 

[rolaholic]

Damn what's wrong with Myles?

Whoever called Ainge the NBA Arsene Wenger last week was so spot on

Sixers get no love?

• Got the best available GM in the market and took him away from his kids
• Got a championship coach (although a bit overrated)
• Got rid of Al's contract
• Got a historically great sharp shooter who can make his own shots at times
• Got a 3&D in Green
• Drafted well
• Got Dwight for the Vet Min as a backup center

Bledsoe should be available but not sure what they can trade him for. Rozier needs to be in the trading block as well, it makes no sense for him to be there with Graham and Melo playing point.

Who the hell is Pelinka? You mean Paul?

They'd be next on the list. I'm not a believer in Doc though. Green is only going to get worse. Picking up Dwert and Seth (mainly) was great. If they trade for Harden though...
