**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[Maximus Meridius]

I don't like Silver speaking against players demanding trades. No front office person complained when the Raptors told Demar to his face they wasn't trading him then flipped on him. Because they look at it as business. The Raptors wanted to better their situation and lying to Demar and trading him for Kawhi was the smart choice. It's the same with the players, they want to better their situation by going elsewhere. Whether it's winning or money wise. It can't be all business for the owners and GM's but the players gotta have all this loyalty.

Knicks got all 2 year deals.

Knicks Byyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyk

Freak and PG

Don't do that.

 

[noblekane]

2 year window Clippers don’t even have any more picks. The hell is wrong is Kawhi man.

buyers remorse

 

[casper90403]

yeah, this isn't news at all. We were even talking in here about him signing a 1+1 to return to Toronto

But because its with the Clippers, you guys are making it a bigger deal then needed.

Relax.....

@the 718 truth

 

[noblekane]

Supermax contract is only for one player per team, correct? Kawhi and PG take up 70% of the cap, 30% for 13 guys

With the amount of money Kawhi's walked away from to get to the place/situation he wanted to be this offseason, you think he's not gonna be willing to take less than the super max to make things work if he's happy with where things go with the Clips?

 

[shotsrangout]

the money thing don't matter to Kawhi...

new balance is gonna throw any amount of money to him to supplement his nba contract

 

[noblekane]

u didnt get kawhi tho. lmao lebum washed AD injury prone

we talking injury prone???

like bi curious george and koala the gimp hasnt been injured the last few years

lol

 

[casper90403]

so a player makes the right decision for him and his pockets but he's a weirdo?

Is AD a weirdo for just giving up $4M that eventually went to role players?

 

[noblekane]

He said that himself?

Or we listening to Chris Carter?

i believe him aint he his agents boy?

i believe carter was prolly lying about the clippers being out of it to mislead on his mans word

 

[casper90403]

You believe Cris Carter???

 

[noblekane]

so a player makes the right decision for him and his pockets but he's a weirdo?

Is AD a weirdo for just giving up $4M that eventually went to role players?

Relax.....

I don't know man. The Clips gave away a lot of picks and could be without both players when they come up.

This is a really interesting situation Kawhi put the Clips in. If they were doing 1+1s, I wouldn't have made that trade for Paul George.

 

[N41D]

I don't like Silver speaking against players demanding trades.

Curious what they're really going to try to do to address this... The league would probably obviously prefer it be handled behind the scenes and not get to the public, but how do you police that? It'd be almost impossible to find a leak - whether from the player's side or the front office's.

Sure, it's maybe disheartening, and you'd like players to be happy through their contracts, but that's just not realistic.

[mnctch]

How much you think Balmer is paying/paid these dudes under-the-table?

 

[papichino]

On a related note we cleared a roster space for Tacko



Tacko!!!!!!

[noblekane]

[squatchnt]

Nope. We not doing this

You know damn well we are like clockwork

Absolutely. But the trade had to be done. I think the Clippers front office is comfortable enough not to worry about losing both in 2 years. Its literally just 1 year thats changed.

This isnt championship or bust, in my opinion.

 

[krazy88s]

Some of you want Kawhi to be gone in 2 years, just you can laugh about it.

The hate is strong

 

[papichino]

Bring in more Danny Ainge slander lmao
