OT Free Agency Round The League

[Driew]

Chandler is a perfect mentor to Zach Collins. Skinny dude that learns to be a defensive force with good athleticism. Zach is already more talented offensively, but Chandler would be a good mentor for Zach nonetheless.

I think the Suns want to keep Chandler so he can mentor Ayton.

Edit: Nevermind guess the Suns are trying to buy him out haha

Zbo would be the perfect mentor to Caleb Swanigan....

 

[Hoopguru]

Beasley to the Lakers.

I actually had that thought also. By NBA standards, Zbo was not a great athlete - but he found success (albeit on one end of the court) by honing his relevant skills. As a big man who plays below the rim, Caleb is not going to make it on either raw talent or hard work alone. He needs to really develop the right skill set.

Beasley to the Lakers.

We passed on him a couple months ago....he can score in bunches but doesn't play a lick of defense and is known to check out of games like Mo has in the past..plus has had lots of off court issues...if we want paint scoring with iffy defense we could pick up Monroe...

 

[DDolla]

Right now, it won’t surprise me if Melo sign with the Lakers for FREE

agree or that or that big guy from the clips

Can you imagine if we had all that cap space this summer instead of 2016? The deals we could have had.....

You say this but weren't we going to lose that space of we didn't use it?

They sure are surrounding LeBron with the most JR Smith-like players.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I see that Yogi Ferrell was dumped yesterday…..talk about a one hit wonder

I guess you were right that he didn't end up with the Mavs

 

[Wizard Mentor]

They sure are surrounding LeBron with the most JR Smith-like players.

since Game of Zones, they are now officially known as "Jester-Types."

 

[KingSpeed]

Damn. Beasley to Lakers.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Damn. Beasley to Lakers.

That's what LeBron is saying.

 

[KingSpeed]

Harrell 2 year $12 million to stay with Clippers.

 

[LayneStaley]

Harrell 2 year $12 million to stay with Clippers.

He’s nasty, wish we coulda landed him somehow.

 

[THE HCP]

Damn. Beasley to Lakers.

Guy is a nut job, but is talented. Same boat as Gerald Green. Can’t depend on any type of consultancy, but can help a team BigTime every now and then. Those type of guys can be very valuable if you have players on the team like CP3 or ‘Bron. Got him for cheap.

Yeah, but the Lakers have one Bron and about ten Beasleys now.

Tobias Harris has turned down an $80 million contract extension from the Los Angeles Clippers.

Harris will play out the final season of his current deal and become an unrestricted free agent in 2019.

Harris could sign a five-year, $188 million max contract with the Clippers or a four-year, $145.5 million deal with another team.

The Clippers acquired Harris as part of the Blake Griffin trade before the deadline.

Not sure what's more ridiculous: Clips offering him 20 mil/yr or Tobias rejecting it.

His offensive numbers look good, but I can't say I saw him on defense much last year. Anyone comment on his defensive abilities? 20pts/6reb and 41% from three on 5+ attempts would look pretty good in our starting lineup. For that kind of money I would want a plus defender.

Those stats are better than I remembered. Didn't realize he dropped 20 on good percentages. I take it back. He's prolly worth about 16-18 mil, so this isn't that out of the world. Not sure he can get much higher.

If he could improve his defense and keep those numbers, then he likely would be worth over $20M. Everything I'm reading says he was an average defender on a good day.

LeBron and the island of misfit toys.

Hopefully they're looking to trade him now haha.

Take the money and run, Dwyane!

Whoa.

China is gonna become the MLS where stars of the past play their last few mediocre years looking like MVPs

I don't think that's new news though. Didn't he basically say that a couple weeks ago?
