OFFICIAL AROUND THE NBA: JUNE 2023

Is that real?

Is that real?

I'd assume so, given the source.

I mean, I know they HAD to spend money, but

 

[B-Roy]

Dude still hasn't been wrong yet.

[B-Roy]

Waiting for this one.

 

[PCmor7]

But she is so gorgeous.

I'm still bummed about Rachel Nichols getting run out of ESPN. She and I lived on the same floor in our freshman dorm at Northwestern and she seemed like a nice person.

Then let her be a Blazers Dancer. Zach Lowe just laughed her off for saying something. She just throws junk out there. Doesn't seem very prepared.

43 million a year? For VanVleet? This one surprises the hell out of me. 20 million was my guess.

Makes Ant look like a bargin. Raptors have a million forwards and need a guard so bad... Blazers have a million guards and need a forward real bad.

I didn't mean to say she's good at what she's does because she's pretty. Just that she is pretty

And Grant

Miami's guys... I know they just made the finals, but it seems like it's just a bunch of guys who played reasonably well alongside two legit studs in Bam and Jimmy Butler.

Gabe Vincent? Max Strus? **yawn** a couple of mid-.300 three point shooters who were in the right place at the right time. Not that they can't help their new teams, but I can't imagine Miami will miss them too much.

They certainly didn't miss Derek Jones Jr.

 

[Chris Craig]

Waiting for this one.

That would suck.

 

[blazerkor]

A little off topic but with Neil Everett leaving ESPN, I wonder if he'll do our half time and pregame stuff for all of our games now. @THE HCP any insider info?

 

[DDolla]

Vanfleet 43M a year? Really Rockets?

At least Portland isn't the ONLY one bidding against themselves:

Does that even make sense? Crazy seems to follow Kyrie wherever he goes.

 

[blazerkor]

At least Portland isn't the ONLY one bidding against themselves:

Yeah I do feel like the biggest overpay of the day was driven by an arms race though. I think the Raptors really tried to keep FVV and he probably would have taken a little less from them to stay but Houston threw down the big offer. So although it was the biggest overpay of the day it was more understandable than let's say Kyrie.

 

[Quatro44]

A lot of Monopoly money being thrown around. Maybe it’s best to be a free agent when the class is weak.

How much is Dames extension again? Tyrese is a nice player but that kind of contact makes it hard to get a big 3 (which seems to be required more than not to truly complete).

The new CBA is supposed to make it extremely hard to have a big three.

dame has 4 yrs, 216 left on his deal.

 

[blazerfan11]

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Wow, NOT worth that!

 

[wizenheimer]

well, with about every other new deal announced, Grant's contract looks a little better

Bane @ 42M/year?.....yikes!
