~*~2014 NBA OffSeason Thread - Free Agency Starts - 7/1 12am ~*~

They might if Cleveland throw some of those first rounds picks next year they have 3 of them

Just think the cavs could be scary with a lineup of
Kyrie
Wiggins
The King
Love
Varejao

What has Golden State offered? They don't want to give up Thompson and don't necessarily want Kevin Martin in return.

So who has the next best deal?

A year is too quick to call someone a bust.

And if it meant getting Lebron, they would easily trade Wiggins

they're gonna have to trade him for somebody sooner or later.....or lose him outright once he becomes a free agent.
so its either trade for crumbs now.......or lose him for good with nothing in return later.

Warriors offered David Lee, Harrison Barnes, and some draft picks for Love; Minnesota wanted Thompson as well or as a substitute for Barnes...So Let me ask all you "smart GMs" out there, do any of you think what cleveland has to offer is better than what GS has already offered??? And do any of you think what minnesota wanted from GS can Cleveland come close to even that???:hmm::hmm:Let me help all of you out, NOOOOOOO!!!!....:lol::lol:Hell the bulls, nuggets, and celtics offered better deals than what the cavs can offer..Love isnt going to Cleveland, just like he isnt going to Miami....
 
So Lamb and Perry Jones are playing summer league

So will Brooks finally actually play them. They have a deeper team than they should have.

Payton and Oladipo might be an interesting young back court. I think Oladipo and Beal are future all stars.

Beals = young Ray Allen
 
Its interesting that LBJ and Melo havent made any decisions yet; Makes me feel like something else is going on...

You notice that too right?

If bosh leaves that's looking more and more feasible he going to south beach... Or as I stated wade taking 5 mill on some wink and nod agreement they signing melo and bosh re-upping but that means melo take a pay cut orrrr both them niggas go to LA

Hmmm
 
Cap dump? :eek:

Lebron and Melo to the Knicks?!?! :eek:

Fuck Dan Gilbert!!! If Lebron goes back to the CAVS and plays for this idiot I'm done with Lebron period.
 
Bron melo and bosh holding the entire league hostage :lol:

They really are though

Can't say why keeping talking about them well it's because these teams aren't going to make major moves until the big chips fall

Many of the 2nd and 3rd tier players waiting on it too

Waiting to get cashed out by the teams who miss out
 
I like this free agent stuff

I hope they draw it out until August. In time for football talk on ESPN. Tired of this soccer shit and baseball is baseball.

Kent Bazemore will meet with the Spurs tomorrow, per @Michael Scotto.

I'd actually like us to keep him.

I liked him better than Xavier Henry, plus dude was getting injured every other week.

That would be big for the Spurs, another young player to guard Durant and Lebron with a little more size than Green in case Leonard gets in foul trouble

That's the other side of it

This free agent stuff gives me my daily sports fix until football gets started

I could give a fuck about soccer or baseball

I don't have a single post in that World Cup thread and have not watched a single game

You're missing out. It's been the best World Cup so far IMHO.

Man, dudes at my job were watching it. You hear all this yelling, OOOHing and AHHing for an hour and a half, go look at the TV and the shit is still 0-0.

I'll pass.

Soccer is the only sport where ninjas get excited for some shit that almost happened.

I tried watching it, and was just like :hmm:

The announcers were talking about the other team having momentum and dominating the action and it was 0-0

I thought the point was to get shots on goal, but I learned with Howard you aren't even supposed to be near the net.

That's like watching a football game and watching both teams go only to the other teams 40 the whole game.

I'd rather watch hockey.
 
this is the craziest FA period i've seen in my life
not only because of the players......but also the fans that will be doing alot of this next season....

You ever watch two defensive teams in the NFL play each other and the score ends up being 10-7. Those are some of the best games to watch. In addition to that you do realize that if a touchdown was only worth 1 pt., the scores would be low as well.

Also, it is very difficult to score a ton of goals in soccer. The ability to score from distance is a feat within itself.
 
So many of us been puzzled by Riley's inability to land top guys(which he said were "pipe dreams" early into the offseason).
Many of us clowned because he knew this day was coming free agency and don't have a valid plan(which he does).
He's hoping the Big 3 resign, many thought he would go after Melo(which I haven't heard anything to that nature).
We've been laughing because there's really no chatter from Miami's top free agents, there wasn't really no noise from the front office until meetings with Deng & Gasol.
The best thing so far was Shabazz Napier first two summer league games. He showed solid play for a rookie, but also showed why most of his fans love him.

Then outta left field comes the McRoberts and Granger signings.
Are they fear striking additions, hell no...will provide offensive energy and defensive length to make a different... Very possible!!!!


So I don't know if this enough to entice Lebron...im not sure but if Pat keep up with these left field signs, his case to present to Lebron will be strong.

Just with these two cats you have
-some defense, outside scoring and passing from a big man with Josh
-danny have length on the wing, which helps on defense and outside shooting
also dude is a great lockeroom guy, which been huge within the Heat's family culture.


What's next I for sure don't know, I for sure won't be surprised if something surprising happens,
One thing I do know Riley has his hands filled(everybody in James ear, Bosh getting love), but the one thing is(maybe was) everybody waiting on him to deliver to a degree.

I'm curious about two things...

If he's able to land Gasol
If Mickey willing to use that trade exception, which is possible because they likely to use the MLE and Bi annual exception...it's not set in stone that they with have to at this point tho...

I have to get up in 5 hrs....somebody need to do something(Bulls(we don't care what pooh is doing either), Knicks, Lakers, Boston)let's make sumthing happen fellows...
