Pistons new GM Troy Weaver was Sam Presti's main guy in OKC's front office over the last decade. Accumulating/hoarding draft picks while trading away your best players is OKC front-office SOP

Detroit obviously saw something they liked in the playoffs and so did I. Who knows. Was it a bubble mirage?

Hayward 4 yrs 120 with Charlotte

Well, good to know the Pistons and Hornets are gonna remain terrible for awhile

Incredible.

This is why I don’t think athletes are overpaid.

If you. An find an owner dumb enough to cut a guaranteed check like this...fuckin take it.

Love Jordan. But fucking dumb acquisition

Rondo. 2ys for $15M with the Hawks.


Pairing him with Trae is..um..interesting

Jordan was desperate to get it done too

I like him but $20 mil a year for a rotation guy is too much.

Charlotte and Detroit have to overpay. That's a given. Apparently they have to overpay A LOT!

It’s honestly a little depressing how terrible of an owner Jordan is.

He loves him some white guys.

It is amazing how many average to below average players get paid. I know there is a salary floor that has to be hit but why the fuck is David Bertan getting 5 years? Hayward got 120 million based on how he looked 4 years ago. Plus Brandon Ingram is expected to get a max contract? Not as bad as the Otto Porter max but still.

we also got Dunn, Galinari and we just signed Sac Bogdo to a 4 year offer sheet. Kings have 48 hours to match. even without him the Hawks loaded up this offseason.

Just compare last year's roster to this year's. Last year center rotation was Alex Len and Damian Jones. Now it's Clint Capela an Onyeku Okongwu.

Last year our highest paid vets were Evan Turner, Allen Crabbe and Chandler Parsons. Now we have Gallo and maybe Bogdonavich.

Also signed Tony Snell for the very end of the bench.

Overnight the Hawks went from no bench to incredibly deep bench.

Donovan Mitchell gets a new deal from Utah, 5 year 195 million.. That means Tatum will get north of 200.

Tatum’s deal is $195 as well.

They both got the max possible

Hey FF Tatum made 3rd team All NBA. Mitchell did not. Might be time to tapout on that one. No one (but you) believe that Mitchell is the better player. As usual me and 312 are correct.

Mitchell had the better season. If he was a forward and not a guard he would’ve kicked Tatum out of that spot.

No reason for me to tap out when I’m still ahead in the argument. Let me know when Tatum gets 50 in a playoff game. We’ll probably be waiting awhile.

As far as guards go Chris Paul (a guy you said was done last year) made 2nd team. How tough could it be with thst being the case?

Tatum plays the same position as Lebron and your guy Kawhi.

Sleepy Floyd once dropped 50 in a playoff game. Never made so much as an All Star team.

Ok let me amend it to two 50 point playoff games

Everyone's numbers were inflated in the bubble. Jamal Murray looked like an MVP candidate in the bubble and making All NBA and playing in 2 Conference Finals in your first 3 years in league is much more impressive than dropping 50 against a weak defensive team in a losing effort in the first round of the playoffs.

You also neglect to mention that 50 was dropped on him twice during the very same series. Plus Mitchell's team lost.

FF you got to be more careful!

All NBA Forwards
Lebron James
Giannis
Kawhi
AD
Jayson Tatum
Overrated Jimmy Buckets


All NBA Guards
Luka
Harden.( A guy that you hate)
Chris Paul (guy you said was done last season)
Westbrook (A guy that you loathe)
Lillard
Ben Simmons (a guy you like but not nearly as much as Mitchell)

All of them bested your guy.

Its over. Its All over!
