Merged: Crabbe Traded to Brk

[riverman]

pull stuff out of your ass

that's disgusting.....they use it in OT all the time...here's my example.....I wouldn't be surprised if Olshey targets a guy nobody is talking about......that's one of my recent conjectures.....any anal references need to be directed elsewhere

 

[B-Roy]

So NO paid for a year of Crabbe's new contract to see if he was going to make a leap and be worth his new deal. He didn't. He's not. Cut your losses and move along.

No he paid for two years. Nicholson's contract is 18M that they have to stretch over 7 years.

You do know I'm kidding, right ?

 

[Mediocre Man]

You don't post with context, and you're not patient enough to see what's going to happen next so you post conjecture instead...

Facts as they are in front of us

of course....
I'm trying to replace jlprk around here but clearly lack the talent

He wants a championship. He even said he wants what other players like Kyrie have. However I think he will give us every opportunity to improve over the next couple of years. But we better do better than 8th seed because that's not good enough.

Including letting NO restructure his contract to provide more spending money for the team? He has his shoe money now. Honestly. I wouldn't knock him if he doesn't, but, if he REALLY wants to win, he would allow for that to happen. Not a huge cut, but a few mill a year can make the difference, since we have to overpay for people it seems.

We really needed an off season S2 bet to start the season!! Those always

work out so well around here!!

Hey I paid my bet off unlike other people round here.

I am 1 and 1 in the two bets Ive had on here and in both instances the winner was paid.

I actually only really remember one bet that took place here where the winner was not compensated. Just sayin' I think @KingSpeed deserves a trophy or something.

Beats the heck out of paying repeater luxury tax on Crabbe's contract. NO took a gamble and it didn't pay off. It happens. I can just imagine the posts around here if he hadn't matched and Crabbe played great for the Nets.

But...Its not a flat world, Kyrie. There are facts behind us too....The BIG picture requires a 360° view...

haha I will pay up if Im wrong...but im not

I see this move as basically a non-event. Crabbe was massively overpaid so he needed to be moved. I don't see Olshey making another move this summer of any consequence.

 

[HailBlazers]

Gordon is a career 38% three point shooter.

Crabbe is a career 41% three point shooter.

The difference isn't as big as you make it.

Sample Size @BonesJones Sample Size, Crabbe's average will dip significantly in BKN with the added touches and east coast chuck fest.

 

[BonesJones]

I forget, can you combine a TPE with another outgoing player to cover an incoming contract?

 

[Blazers Roy]

Wow, not happy to hear about this trade.

I feel like Neil is working without a plan and i don't like it.

Signs Crabbe to a huge contract-->Crabbe plays the same-->doesn't take a guard in the draft--> trades Crabbe for a useless contract.

I think he has a plan.
And i still like the Collins pick, but knowing Crabbe is on the way out, how good would Donovan Mitchell look instead right now?

 

[Minstrel]

Neil fucked up originally by matching. But ya, trading a top 2-3 3pt shooter for a scrub is awesome. Great job NEIL!!!

The food is terrible and the portions are too small.

But the price is juuuuuust right.

Donovan Mitchell is the defensive stud I wanted from this year's draft. Oh well.

It's time to roll with what we have and hope Collins becomes a good player along with Biggie.

 

[andalusian]

Where has he been?

Traded to Brooklyn, they need all the talent they can get

 

[3RA1N1AC]

BKN might be somewhat decent next year. (Not bottom 5 in the league).

Russell / Lin
Crabbe / Kilpatrick
Carroll / Levert
Booker / Acy
Mozgov / Allen

Theyve had a good moneyball type offseason, but can you seriously name 5 worse teams?? Can you name one?

 

[blazedanugz]

For the people complaining we got nothing back.

You realize we now have a TPE of 13 million to use in a trade now... right?
If you don't sign crabbe last year, you don't have that now...so..?

 

[Boob-No-More]

I heard they signed him to a 2-way contract so he can do the game threads live for their G league team.

Absolutely, Marks has done a great job turning that mess around.

He's on the right path, but that team is still hot garbage. Who is their best player, DeAngelo Russell?

But they've got some direction finally.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Adios! I won't miss him.

 

[Natebishop3]

Adios! I won't miss him.

That's a horrible thing to say!

 

[Nikolokolus]

I "liked" Kerry Eggers tweet BGD, not your post.

Just wanted to clear that up.
