**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[abematic]

Mind blown still, how Kawhi led a team with no dominant all star, unlike the past championship winners.

 

[jpzx]

Most boring championship parade ever, and what else should I have expected?

You think the Hornets offer him the full supermax? I dunno, but if they do he definitely takes it.

Charlotte is so poorly run, I could see them giving him the full deal, though. I guess we’ll see.

Even if it’s just for the optics, they gotta offer kemba that max. If he leaves, charlottle becomes the most destitute, star player-impoverished team in the league but at least sell your fans on the idea that you pulled out all the stops

Jalen gotta fight him in the Bristol cafeteria

People watch sports parades?

HIM Please edit the thread title. Nothing is finalized yet.

Is max only 30ms?
Raptors have 4 guys making 20m+
Let's not act like their a home grown team now. You need 3 stars to win a ring and a competent bench

Some cities dont have them every 4 months

And also got there and won prior to KD. Better example is the Raptors winning in one year with Kawhi but Lakers fans gotta tell it different

I'm supremely confident whether or not we get a 3rd star. At the very least we have 2 top 5 players in the league. In regards to the Miami, they actually did make the finals in year 1 with that big 3. Also I'd say that Bron is what Wade was in 2011 and AD is what Bron was in 2011. I'm not concerned at all about the rest of the West at this point. So it comes down to if they can beat the Bucks or Raps (assuming they retain Kawhi).

I'm talking about watching them on TV.

I can understand attending.

NO JIMMY BUTLER UNLESS HES ON A SHORT & CHEAP DEAL

either 1+1 or 2 year straight up.

People blocking off the freeway for this parade. I'm just trying to see somebody fire up a blunt on camera.

That makes no sense. He's 29 not 35. At least grab him for 3-4.

Making it and winning are 2 different things. Dont move the goal posts now lol

 

[blastercombo]

I like the guy but yes please, OKC needs to.

Everyone but Paul and Russ can go for the thunder. That squad has reached its peak and okc ain’t drafting stats like they used to

 

[carver]

Imagine if we get all three at 5 mill each

Username checks out

 

[NickFolarin]

Back to Lavar...... he really f'd up with that comment..... they about to get him up outta here

 

[MVP]

And what people are missing with Kawhi, he's probably not signing a long term deal right now anyway with whatever he signs because in 2 seasons he'll be at 10 years of service and be eligible for a 35% max instead of the 30% right now. So in theory could he take a haircut for a season knowing he's going to make it up on the backend? It could happen. I don't believe he's coming to the Lakers but we're definitely more in play now than we were before Saturday.

Or take the max in Philly and contend in the east. Instead of being 3rd fiddle and taking a lot less money during your prime.

So he wouldn’t be third fiddle to simmons and Embiid?

Also, in a lot of these scenarios....the players current team doesn’t offer them the max. That’s the assumption. Of course MOST of these guys staying out minus Kyrie

Why is this man still getting air time on ESPN?

Give him a reality show on VH1 and be done with it.

I remember back in Feb or March when he went on Undisputed and spew all that BS about Magic and the Lakers. I was late for work and it was ALL WORTH IT

Dude was all over the place and he was promoting the BBB Water

 

[amitt5504]

Not really. As the closer, he would get his touches no matter what. Especially with Simmons and his shot smh
