Cole Miner Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 13 minutes ago, Oyaji said: He wants that super max he'll be eligible for then. Three years in the NBA is an eternity but unless this is a train wreck I imagine he finishes his career with the Clippers. He won't be super max eligible. You have to be on the team that drafted you or that traded for you during your rookie contract. He will be eligible for a higher percentage of the cap due to 10 years of service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Minnesota is not matching Memphis' offer sheet to Tyus Jones. So he's a Grizzly now. 3/28 are the terms GS is waiving Shaun Livingston. No word on whether or not they'll retire his number too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirFozzie Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 So, in as short as two years, both George and Leonard can opt out: (again, odds are they'll resign but if the Clippers have a bad-middling year, you can be sure that the rumors will start to rise (From ESPN) If both players become free agents in 2021, the Clippers would hold Leonard's early Bird rights and full Bird rights for George. Based on that, LA could offer Leonard a four-year, $196 million contract and George a five-year, $254 million deal, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

Dolfan in NYC Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Tyler Herro has signed his rookie deal. This means he cannot be traded for at least 30 days. Barry Jackson says Pat does not want to trade Herro or Bam for Russ, which makes me think Justise Winslow is the centerpiece of the deal. Though a ton more has to happen for the deal to even remotely work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Although nobody is reporting they've tried, a lot of pundits are arguing Minnesota should try attaching a couple draft picks to Wiggins and whoever to match cap space and see if they can get Westbrook in. On one hand, they'd be on the hook for the last year or two which might be ugly. On the other, he'd be a clear upgrade on both Teague and Wiggins, and it's not like Minnesota has any real history of attracting top free agents. Wiggins is in desperate need of a fresh start, and Presti has gambled before on athletic underachievers. Plus, they have to be thinking about how to keep KAT in town already.

jaedmc Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 If KAT didn't like sharing the stage with with Jimmy Buttler, I don't think he'll like playing with Westbrook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Considering Westbrook is going to have final say, I bet he'd rather sit on the sidelines and get paid in OKC than move to a team in the West that has no chance of getting anywhere in the playoffs. At least he's got a shot at the Conference Finals with the right team in the East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Butler didn't like the young guys on Minny and KAT didn't like that Jimmy would be breaking his balls all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcosLoura Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 For someone that is used to soccer silly season, the NBA offseason is so insane wild by comparison. The way that a player's market value changes from season to season is mind boggling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatling Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Russ to the Rockets for CP3, 1st round picks in 2024 and 2026 and pick swaps in 2021 and 2025. Huh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) This is the happiest DVDVR day of my life, fellas. I am dead. Does OKC flip CP3 to a contender, take on some bad expiring contracts and get moar picks? Could San Antonio make it work? Seriously, I love Liverpool and all but the NBA from the playoffs through like... August is the best of sports.
