NBA Offseason Thread 2017 - Page 93 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

I wonder if most of the owners care about the dubs keeping this group together longterm. They stand to make a ton of $ off revenue sharing if Lacob and co eat the bill right?

I think Lacob will try to swing it but the cost seems prohibitive. Saw talk of PSLs to cover some of the costs in the new arena-- could cover upwards of 300 million-- which will piss off a lot of fans but they could prob survive the backlash given the success of the team. Still only way that I see them making it through in tact is if the cap projections are too low or if Lacob doesn't really care about maximizing the return on the team

Hayward apparently loves Rubio and told the Jazz he wanted to play with him.

He probably should have just signed with the Wolves :-/

What is the next plan for Ainge? I'm sure that will be the one that comes together.

The Chase Center opens in SF for 2019-2020. The Warriors remain committed to finding the top price for tickets. It's worth any luxury tax bill to have the best team possible while making the suite sales.

After they settle in to the new arena they can cut costs.

City of Boston sold their soul for sports championships so wouldn't be surprised if something popped off for the Celtics in the next couple of years.

Got Hayward running to the East at this point.

I say Hayward either stays with the Jazz or goes to EL HEAT.

It was known KD was going to take less than the full max saving the Warriors from using cap space to sign him. The latest report is he is taking less than the 20% raise possible with the non-bird exception. This will save quite a bit, especially if they sneak out of tax next year to push the 3/4 repeater penalty further away. Full credit to Curry for this surprise of course.

I'm not a fan of KD going lower when the only difference is the tax bill. Players should get paid.

The tax bill plays into who they keep tho.

I could see why Durant would want to do what he could to keep the previous core intact, as the benevolent perpetually new-guy.

Jazz slight favorite over the Heat IMO, Celtics a distant 3rd. Wife wanting the warm weather isn't good for Boston

yeah i mean, if they sell them they are banking on being good for a while. if they fall off abruptly for some reason it'll be terrible for them pr wise

Kevin Durant not being paid the max sucks. CBA should force the top X players by whatever metric to be paid the max. Like if you're first team All-NBA for the last 3 years + under 35
