Juxtatarot 11,257 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I feel sorry for the restricted free agents. I thought we'd see at least one sign an offer sheet on the first day today but :crickets: The moratorium really hurts them. Most of free agency is done before they can even sign with another team and start the 2-day match clock. The NBA really needs to fix this. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie Harper 1,177 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 4 hours ago, Good Posting Judge said: Really hoping houston gets melo. I guess they won't have to pay Melo 15 million, but once they lost Ariza, Houston's title chances went with him, unless they can replace his 3&D. Teams get caught up having an arms race offensively with the Dubs, but as long as you have playmakers that can get by Curry you'll be fine. The key is having no weak links on defense that the Dubs will consistently abuse. Melo and Harden would be opening up the floodgates for the Dubs. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

He has a nice 15 minute discussion about the Wizards in the beginning of their most recent one. Speaking of which, those guys brought up a funny idea. It seems like a lot on the Sports networks are behind the Lakers and their off-season moves. They brought up the idea that if LeBron resigned with the Cavs, and they made all the moves the Lakers have they would be the butt of every joke for the entire summer. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
msudaisy26 5,903 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) I am so glad the Pistons used all their cap space on Blake. It would have been horrible to have 2 of these 4 guys instead of Blake. Smart, Randle, Lavine, and Parker. We might even have gotten 3 of them if we traded Tobias for an expiring and a pick.

I hate Tom Gores. I think i can confidently say I am not a Boston nut-hugger, so i think i can say with some objectivity that I would be pissed off i were Marcus Smart too. The fact that he hasn't heard from anybody from Boston is just disrespectful, but it happened last year too so he shouldn't be surprised. But seeing all of these other players go in free agency when Smart can likely bring more to the table has to be a bit infuriating. Maybe his agent sucks or something, but the buzzword for all the Lakers signings were that they wanted to bring in "toughness". Well, i think Smart can bring some of that, plus some dependable skill. if has to settle for 1 year at 6 million it will be a shame. Luckily for Boston they hit it right with Stephenson, and i think that guy can help focus Smart and use his anger to play well next season if this happens. Link to post Share on other sites

Regardless, i cant see young being on that level ever. Only reason people were comparing him to Curry was they are the same size and he shoots 3s. I don't watch a ton of Big12 basketball so I do wonder though how good the teams in the conference are defensively as well. Out of conference I saw him play a tough Alabama team who held him to one of his worst shooting nights of the season. Link to post Share on other sites
