2018 NBA Offseason - Page 147 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Beverly, Bradley, Lou is a nice top 3 in the regular season.

Tobias is nice. Gallo will be healthy and decent.

Boban should start but Trezz should play 30mpg and Gortat plays sometimes too obvi

Clipps seem like they will be big sellers at the deadline. Got a lot of guys on expirings that can help contenders.

Bev, Milo, AB, Mbah, Tobias, Gortat

In general they have like 10-11 good players, not sure how they're gonna divide up minutes. Good thing 3-4 of them are amongst the most injury prone players in the league.

or in a conference-free NBA

I one day wanna live in a conference free world.

Where teams are not judged by the content of their conference but by the content of their character.

I remember when Derozan re-upped with the Raptors and I said it was a great deal, while many posters around here laughed at it... well...

Objectively, It’s a bad deal and will look worse and worse as time goes on.

Demar DeRozan playoff career:

51 Games
30% USG
49 TS%
-2.5 BPM
-0.2 VORP

Last year he had a -18.1 net rating in the playoffs.

Mr. BigT,

What do you think the odds are Kawhi signs with the Raptors next offseason?

Unsure, probably >50%. Going to be hard to leave a team that just took the Warriors to 6 or 7 games in the NBA finals for LA teams that both just missed the playoffs.

PSA for people not from LA: "coming to LA" means the Lakers. It doesn't mean the Clippers.

For someone like Kawhi who grew up in LA, the clippers are still, and will always be, the racist, irrelevant step-team.

Lol.

More teams should overpay mediocre guards on the off chance that a top 5 player unpredictably gets in a fight with his team and demands a trade in his expiring year so they have no leverage. Great long-term strategy.

the craptors will have such a massive leadership void. it was already pretty bad and they swapped out a beloved dude for a snake. nurse is going to have to do a heck of a coaching job.

Clearly the Casey firing was a mistake, just rehire him?

Pistons have him locked up for 4 or 5 years

Bigt is a bit overconfident, but I think 20-25% is a good number.

even this is too high and an over correction to pg's decision. not only are the kawhi to LA reports stronger, but the cult of westbrook and TrIpLe DoUbLeS is a strong an alluring thing to some people. lowry's fatass and pascal siakam ain't got nothing on that.

craptors have about the same odds as the sixers imo. 10-15, lakers 50, 25 field

i don't even know how people can come to putting a percentage on such an unknown event with unknown variables left right and center.

anyway since it seems so certain that Kiwi goes to LA too, i can't wait for that Russ-PG-Kiwi-Lebron-kLove lineup next season

Riiiiiight. I'd think you're trolling on all fronts here but sadly we know better.
