Is Melo even going to play next year?

The Lakers are fucking stupid. Why trade Isaac and Mo Wagner? They are perfectly good players on rookie contracts. Goodness. LeBron is fucking stupid as a GM.

Who wins GM of the year award bros?

bros the new drake songs are alright but they aren't bangers like non stop or sicko mode... I think Drake peaked...

So we all agree that AD and Lebron will be sidelined most of next season with injuries, right? AD is a mixed bag who puts even Medical Joe to shame, but LeBron will almost certainly finish transitioning and split his pussy apart again.

How fucking based will it be when my Rapties 2peat by annihilating the Warriors again

I don't care for Bonga but would prefer if Wagner stayed.

Just like your team.

AD is one injury away from being Demarcus Cousins tier. pottery isnt it?

I know Bonga's agent, so I like him automatically.

Gonna have to find a good alternative before next season

The NBA is about seizing the moment and going all-in because holding out usually doesn't work. Look at Philly and Boston. Bron isn't getting any younger and a player signing in FA is never a certainty because the FA landscape can change drastically very quickly. Just two weeks ago we were talking about KD and Kyrie linking up in NY. Do you think any reputable sports network is still churning out those stories?

Warriors

Cavs would have beat them in 2018

San Antonio status?

I don't think anyone did. He probably wanted more money than Boston was offering and is going to test the market now to see if he can do better. He was going to get more total money than the 30 left either way.

Attached: 1551391647621.jpg (2048x1053, 223K)

enjoy losing all your 1st rounders until 2032 bro

Apparently KD/Klay injuries have created a market for big contract vet players for teams trying to contend now when they previously seemed untradeable. (Like the Raptors trading for Marc Gasol midseason)

Players being looked at, Capela, CP3, Steven Adams, Horford, Conley, and even DeRozan

Perennial first round exits

seething over FVV

That was my first thought, but the more I'm thinking about it, the more I'm starting to feel that it will depend on who else they sign on. If they force LeBron and AD to do everything, its a ticking time bomb.

Melo wept

Celtics lost it. Not because Kyrie isn't staying, fuck Kyrie.

It's because it put a negative stamp on the team, that even if you're the biggest fan favorite, you'll still get traded. It's the main reason Davis didn't consider the Celtics.

But I don't believe the Celtics are really like that, they REFUSED to offer Tatum in a deal for Anthony Davis. So I think the Celtics do have loyalty for players.

Dangerously close to creating an elite young squad. Drafting Bol Bol and some random yuro nigger with the 29th pick who both become elite. Walker and Murray panning out. Derrick White already elite. Derozan's contract kind of tradeable now. They could easily flip it around.

Some team out there is missing a SG and needs someone that can average at least 20ppg plus handle the ball a bit

>seriously thinking AD won't waive his kicker and have Lebron slip him an envelope with 5 million under the table at dinner that night

>say he should be a PG
>then say he should play the 2
What the fuck is wrong with you? also he can't shoot consistently at a high level so being a PG is the best option what the fuck is wrong with you?
Do you know what the fuck a SG does? He'd also have to guard wings all the time which is harder than PGs

Reminder that if your team signs a single Morris Twin, they will be cursed with inefficient play and cancer. But if they sign both at once, they will be blessed with twin magic.

Also he's 6'3 which is the new norm for PGs while 6'5-6'8 has become the new norm for SG/SF

Please dont take the last remaining good thing about the wizards away from us.

Everyone in the city is wearing raptors gear, raptors and we the north flags are everywhere, and all the basketball courts are packed as fuark

the rockets weren't that happy with how performed against gstate but but really he's the easiest contract to move compared to cp3. he's only one year older than kuzma and has had a bigger impact on the court. he still has upside. if the rockets want to get that third star capela will likely be the guy that can get him

he's getting 18M a year and is unplayable

Not even 15

I don't think a single P&R only center even deserves 13.

Most devalued position in the NBA

>2019-20 - $14,896,552

>basketball courts packed

Where I live I go shoot alone for hours and no one shows up. I dont even care if I get clowned on, I just wanna play the beautiful game

Capela has a $1M bonus if they make the Western Conference Finals and he still played like absolute shit in the playoffs

He gets a $500k bonus for making 65% on free throws which literally anyone with any work ethic whatsoever can do and he also failed at that

I mean the 76ers can just run Simmons/Reddick/Butler/Horford/Embiid as the "fuck you we got size" lineup and bully almost every other team with size

What's comfy about major disappointment majority of the season?

I want to see my team win 43 games and lose in the first round at least

Only if DeKobe DeBryant gets traded again before the playoffs start

DeRozan and any good big lineup

I'm surprised you still haven't killed yourself yet Gowiz

Asterisk title.

I don't have to waste potentially another month or two watching the playoffs

there is no reason at all for anyone in the world to take on john walls contract
it doubles next season

What is it actually going to take for the wizshits to dump wall? 3 first round picks bundled with him?

A skilled PF is the final piece.

>Kyrie-Lebron-Love
>Curry-Durant-Green
>Lowry-Kawhi-Siakam

If your team isn't built like this, it is likely a pretender for the next 5 years until the league changes once again in response to this teambuild. 2019-2020 might be the only exception due to Durant being ded , Lebron getting injured, and Kawhi potentially going to some shit team causing a huge power vacuum.

Wizshits are going to be terrible for at least 7 more years and will take a full decade to become a contender if they draft perfectly.
>4 years of Wall's contract killing the cap
>4 years after that for draft picks to get to the age where they can be stars

look at the lakers, look at the pelicans. They're pulling triggers, look at how long it took sacramento to trade boogie cousins and they're still not even in a good position. meh tier young talent. Wizards should be doing everything to unload beal, wall and howard to get picks. This draft and next seasons are going to be STACKED. must suck to be a wizard fan.

>trading beal, wall and howard to get picks
They can MAYBE trade Beal for a pick if they completely fleece another team. They will have to give up picks of their own to get rid of Wall's franchise destroying contract. Dwight's a 5 mil contract not really worth anything but it would be a good idea to get him out of the locker room.

Wow, both of you guys misspelled "Magic Johnson"

Getting rid of DeRozan even as just a straight salary dump would have been a victory. Trading DeRozan for a championship? Legendary trade.

I literally don't understand what changed though. They've been trying to find a 3rd team for the trade since last week when all the reports about the trade came up.

this nigga light yagami is insane. am i supposed to be rooting for him? because fuck that nigga

Woj hates LeBron.

Many of us do know our shit. We're just not as loud and irritating about it desu

media suddenly went cold lads. What do you think they're talking about in the Lakers war room right now?

Better off just tanking the next 2-3 years while John Wall misses next season and rehabs for 2 years before taking his fucking $47 million player option in 2022-23. Just don't fucking rush it.

Can someone explain to me why ANYONE would willingly be a hornets fan?

they are trying to figure out how to get out of the AD trade so they they can go back to tanking again

That was before the trade took place. They couln't find a 3rd team and made a a trade with the Pelicans by offering extra picks

Now the Lakers fucked up and didn't know about the July 30th restriction, want to redo the deal to allow them to create extra cap space

Pelicans want to do this deal as is because they're flipping the #4 pick and will have more versatility.

AD would also have to waive his trade kicker

They're now trying to get a long shot amendment made to the original trade that the Pelicans have no reason to oblige unless the Lakers find some 3rd team that wants their shitty players and no other picks involved (Lakers can't trade anymore 1st round picks)

who else do we root for in north carolina?

Sadly the Celtics. It gave people this stigma about it, even though ANY FUCKING GM IN THE LEAGUE WOULD'VE TRADED IT FOR KYRIE. Also, these same people forget that they refuse to trade Tatum for anyone, showing loyalty.

Another part is the injuries that plagued them. There best chance was last year and Hayward got injured his 1st game, while Kyrie only played 60. The fact that they still got to the ECF and took the Cavs to 7 was incredible, considering they only did it with rookies, sophmores, Horford and the bench.

The final is... Ainge keeps hoarding picks. At the end of the day, he has to seize an opportunity. Celtics are always in trade talks over assets but Ainge never wants to make the trades. For a team that has "loyalty" issues, the GM barely makes any moves that would really set them off. They've been "one pick away" for way too long.

There’s something deeply pleasing to see Boston and New York eating all of the shit.

Kuzma is only going to be in his 3rd year next year. Yes I'd like to see more consistency out of him but he seems too confident to not succeed in the long run

dont you compare boston to our suffering at least they won ine in modern times. i literally have never seen the knicks win one title in my lifetime

I don't understand why people blame the Celtics for signing Hayward. Who could have predicted he'd suffer such an awful injury? It was just bad luck. If Hayward never gets hurt then that contract is completely justified.

how are these john wick movies so popular?

this shit boring af

>only his 3rd year
After 3 college years as well. At the age of 24.
We know what kind of player Kuzma is. And that's a one dimensional floor spacer 4 who can't play a lick of defense to save his life and can't really handle a scoring load. He's not going to change if he's been the same player for 3 college years and 3 nba years.

LeBron is doodoo

you lost Kristaps and will sign KD to a bigass contract who's next even going to play next season, then the cancer will begin and he'll have to sit out games the season after, then he'll play, show some flashes, then he'll demand a trade and it'll be a big shit show and everyone will shit on you.

Nobody cares about NY market anymore. You're going to be judged for absolutely everything. Also, the NBA is full of betas with low self-esteem. Most of those players are going to hate that shit.

I wouldn't say it;s Dolan, it's just that Screamin' A., ESPN, NY Post, all these fucking people are part of the Knicks package, and nobody wants to handle all of that pressure. Granted, if you win, you're going to be a god. But, the bad outweighs the good.

just because they have respect for those guys doesn't mean they can trsut dolan. sure he can say he won't interfere but he can change his mind in an instant and clear that front office and coaching staff if he feels like they aren't getting anything done. Just look at the jets. people were paising that front office for landing darnald and saying ownership finally got out of the way to let things work. then the next year the owner clears them out to put in a new staff because he didn't like the le'veon bell signing. dolan can do the the same thing if someone ticks him off

How the fuck can Lebron, with his dilated neovagina splitting apart constantly and AD with his glass knees and glass everything shoulder the load of the entire season with no one backing them up?

How do you even breathe being this full of shit?

You now remember that Klay Thompson ran out and shot 2 free throws and got back on defense on a torn acl.

After Westbrook there's a huge drought, before that Conley, CP3 Bosh Odom, list goes on

Yeah but KD wasnt 36, Steph wasnt prone to injury every five minutes while having only left the first round once, and Klay is better than literally any guy the Lakers can currently get their hands on. I agree that the Warriors have a shit bench has been shit but their core is better in many ways than the core the Lakers are desperately trying to build. Lebron and AD will get injured. With even one of them going down, its over.

Remember when LeBron needed to be carried out by his whole team because the AC broke in the Finals while everyone else played just fine?

Football players have played with worse. It's actually a really stupid thing to show how tough you are in a sport, you have your whole life ahead of you.

Even the Warriors needed a 6-7 man rotation at the bare minimum. When they got below that, you saw what happened. And it's really hard to actually get players in FA on vet mins who can be useful contributors in the finals. The Warriors certainly didn't find a ton of them outside of David West and Boogie.

The reality is that the Lakers need to get 3 to 5 more passable rotation-quality NBA players, and they have like 25 million dollars to do it with. That's really hard.

Kuz
Melo

He could've said no.

Yet he was the only player affected by the AC. Really makes you think, huh

Bosh already explained how they knew it was intentional and they knew Lebron would cramp at some point because of how his body is. It just happened at the worst time

How can the Celtics unload Hayward?

If the Celtics are nuking their roster he might as well go and let Brown and Tatum chuck their way to All-star status.

Lebron isn't good though, he couldn't even make the playoffs last year. Inexcusable. Any other top player would have taken that roster to the playoffs. Lebron isn't the best player in the world anymore, and he's barely even a top 4 sf.

No. Lebrong was his biggest fan in the organization. He told Gilbert to give him an extension. Gilbert not signing him to save money was probably the biggest reason why Lebron left.

Lakers are fine. They got the one player they need to have a shot at the finals, and even if the Pels tell them to fuck off and they dont end up signing a max player, they can still fill the bench.

I'm beginning to realize the competition against the Lakers next season...

Nuggets, Bucks, Raptors/Clippers (depends on which one has Kawhi), Sixers

Four teams. There are only FOUR teams that can stand up to Lebrow. And if Kawhi stays in Toronto, then three of those teams are in the East, meaning the Lakers have a enormous chance of at least getting to the Finals.

Dwane Casey as the head coach HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH

I seem to remember LeBitch, after recovering from his neovagina surgery, coming back and getting his new pussy fucked by the Grizzlies, Suns, Knicks and many others.

Drummond isn't worth even 18 a year

This traditional center meme has been thoroughly exposed this playoffs and the year before.

>@wojespn: Sources tell me that user 93567738 is MAD AS SHIT LOL, oh and lakers are getting everyone

We don't even know who their starting five are and their coach is (going to be) Jason Kidd and you're penciling them into the WCF

>spurs knew lebum was a bitch and he would cramp up with a bit of heat
seems legit

>Drummond
>>>>>>> million
Jesus fucking christ what dumbfuck nigger thought that was a good idea and how do they have a job?

The last thing Denver wants is another guard, let alone an old manlet one.

Um sweetie that's 2018 Coach of the Year, Dwane Casey.

>this angers, scares, and confuses the (((Memeiors))) "fan"

Yo Lakerbros who what dank ass balla ass free agents is we getting this time?

Kris Middleton? James G Buckets? Patrick Beverley??????

ALL OF THEM?

>@wojespn: Sources tell me that eternal and infinite amounts of assblastedness are going on inside of the city of Oakland

I feel like Wagner off the bench would work well. Fresh legs for Davis and Kuz and relatively cheap.

does ab soul still make music?

ur dumb, with jokic and murray you dont need a traditional point guard

hot take: jimmy butler to the seventy sixers

>@wojespn: Sources tell me this is only the beginning of /nba/'s salt in the ass butt hurt-ness lmao, Chris Broussard reports (per his sources) that the lakers are getting everyone lmao and there's nothing the nerds over there at 5clam can do about it lmaooo.

I'm a fucking GENIUS
Gripping my fucking PENIS

He's active on twitter and released something in 2016

Hot take, OKC will trade Steven Adams on draft night for someone like Buddy Hield or some shit

Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Not a single soul:
Kawhi Leonard:

Hot take: Bulls will give Dlo the max and trade Dunn to the Suns or some shit

Hot take: Knicks won't sign any top 10 free agents and punt another season to tank

Would be pretty happy if that happened 2bh. Would hate to watch another season of westshit

drtrake

Hot take: some random team will go all in on a championship run and fail miserably

(I'm talking about the Lakers)

That nobody meme is dumb as fuck and makes no sense

I've seen everything now!

i hope so. i like steven adams, would like to see him be on a successful team

remember when people thought excremento was nuts for trading cousins for hield lmao

He shoots sub .700 on FTs and gets paid 25 mil to not close out playoff games because he's too slow to play motion teams with 3pt shooters

Once again, traditional centers are a meme and not close to being worth even 15 mil a year

Meme ball is here to stay

Yo, nigga

at least u were creative with it

Name one traditional center that's gone deep in the playoffs the last 3 years

They all eventually get run off the court and a small ball center closes out the game.

I Mean
Where
The Fuck
Do I
ReallyEvenStart

He's happy to take a smaller contract. He's also had shit coaches his entire career. Not his fault Sam presti is a retard and overpaid

its literally being used to trigger 4channelers. its like post ironic memeing but theres layers to this shit

His game isn't worth it at his age, especially if you already have Murray and hopefully a healthier, better Gary Harris. They desperately need a good 3&D wing. Potentially an upgrade on Millsap so he can lead the bench with Plumlee.

Or a 3pt shooting center like Gasol, Horford, Embiid, Lopez

Thompson and Draymond in the Finals last 3/4 years

relax

i said i like him, i didn't say i thought he was good you dirty nigger

Warriors fucked up closing out with Cousins instead of Draymond or Looney

>He's happy to take a smaller contract
BRING HIM ON DOWN TO LA LOL

I would've even allowed Jerebko

Remember there was the trade to get PG, with Kevin Love going to Denver and I guess Gary Harris and the then 13 overall pick (which Denver used on Donovan Mitchell and sent to Utah for Trey Lyles and shit) to Indiana. Indiana backed out and sent PG to OKC. All of this of course after Kyrie demanded to be traded. Then Gilbert decided to say fuck it and not extend Griffin over some dumb shit.

I for one am glad 7 footers are being forced to a higher standard of play instead of being allowed to coast through life living completely off their size

I don’t really care if you cry

Cousins was like the only functioning Warrior by the end of game 6

t. lakes fan

Arrest warrant then an ass raping in an overcrowded cell but atleast you get free college and better healthcare than most Americans which you’ll need for your expanded asshole

Harden choking
