2020-21 NBA Offseason thread: Officially a wrap

[B Sox]

They won't make much noise, but Harden/Wall/House/Tucker/Wood is easily a playoff team.

 

[addict4sneakers]

PG had his best season next to Russ...KD is the best player but everyone else is a wash.

2 first round exists. KD became a champion. Sabonis got paid. Oladipo made all NBA.

 

[QU!K]

I’ll be surprised if John Wall can even put up post injury D. Rose numbers. He’s 30 and has barely played basketball in the last 3 years.

 

[JustBlaze.]

Rockets just officially released their blue unis a few minutes ago

Oiler energy. Tough.

 

[kingjay718]

Walls passing ability /IQ is being disrespected in here lol

That time he commentated while he was injury. He’ll be a coach someday

 

[freeze]

Oh ****. Beal don't deserve this.

WOWWWW

They should have stayed together. Best compliments to each other they have ever played with and they both are the same caliber of player and have that loser mindset.

Wall gon love them Houston ho’s

 

[wavycrocket]

KD, PG, now Harden. When do we get to have THAT conversation about Westbrook

Remember when they made it seeem like he was a lone wolf, who never got any “help” ....and didn’t want it lol.

 

[kingjay718]

I think the trade is good for wall. Gets to go to a warm city, a new one at that, he can get away from his family and friends and the DC party scene. Change is good. But damn. Hardly anyone stays with one team anymore.

 

[geno90221]

Harden might hang around too many Crips for John Wall liking.

 

[QU!K]

Trading for Wall (after injury) or current Russ at those contracts would be the most Knick move ever.

Especially, right before a very stacked draft. You either go all in and get two guys or build slowly. One guy isnt moving any needle and you'll be stuck in purgatory again.

What’s the Knicks timeline? Gonna be terrible for at least another 3 years.

 

[reconic supreme]

I'll never forget LeBron bodying Westbrook left and right in the WCSF

 

[Figured it out]

At his best he was never better than Russ

Period

Scorer no , passer yes, IQ yes and probably a better fit next to Harden

periodt

 

[sole searchin]

Wizards so stupid. Why would any team want Russell Westbrook

Rockets so stupid. Why would any team want John Wall

Really banking on RJ, Obi, or Mitch to take the next step. Add another top 10 pick and go from there. Just gotta hit on one of these guys.

Russ going out sad

What I'm suggesting is keeping the team salary cap but getting rid of max contracts. Teams would be able to pay top players like LeBron or KD $60m but they would still be held to the $109m salary cap ($132m luxury tax). If the Lakers had AD and LeBron both making $50m+ per year, The rest of the roster would be very thin. This would make it near impossible to have more than two superstars on a team unless they were willing to give up tens of millions of dollars per season to team up

I see. Essentially saying one 1 max type of player would be on each team.

I actually like to see multiple stars on a team though. But once a team has 3 star level players, then its not as good to watch.

John and PJ two southside legends

 

[addict4sneakers]

Playoff Wall >>> playoff Russ

 

[aepps20]

WOWWWW

Hopefully Mr. Westbrook brings the order to the DCPD.

This ends up screwing the mid and lower tier guys. It'd be amazing for the fans and the league, but the NBPA would never go for it.

Brad Midas whale gon head and demand that trade action

Playoff Wall >>> playoff Russ
