Beary Sweet Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 DeRozan contract is worth every penny. Look at Conley's contract. Is he really the best NBA player to earn the richest contract in history... Derozan >>> Conley. Love Ujiri for getting it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balmer is crazy enough to make it happen. Better off staying in Okc. He should go to the Clippers only if Deandre Jordan is the guy getting moved out.

Sean Monahan Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Casual NBA fan here...anybody know exactly what happened with O.J Mayo? I assume he has a prior history? And what kind of drugs did he test positive for, PEDs or something else? I remember when he was coming out of college, back when I was a much more devout basketball fan, he was a big deal.

TheRussianRocket. Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Celtics and co take Brady with them for the Durant meeting. Horford just signed with them. This enough to convince KD? Definitely will be interesting to see how things play out now. ..and kind of caught off guard on why KD hasn't decided to meet with the Raptors. If you're changing teams, come to the east since you'll be guaranteed a trip the conference finals each year. No real point in staying in the west while changing teams since making it out of that conference come playoff time is a finals itself. East it's the Cavs and Raptors...come to the Raps, give the a premier superstar and you're set. Raps have created the best team you possibly can in the NBA without having a superstar but it just goes to show you need one to win. Superstars run the league and win championships. Yes they have stars in Lowry and Demar but they aren't superstar status...would make a lot of sense for KD to come over east and especially the Raps. Would push them over the top and give him the best chance at reaching the finals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have Vucevic and Ibaka at the 5 and 4. All that to come off the bench and possibly stunt his growth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggs50 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) Lot's of reports have Jamaal Crawford going to the Warriors. KD to Boston is being reported as highly likey. Personally hoping Raps sign Pau Gasol or David West if the first fails. Edited July 3, 2016 by Jiggs50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckfan_21 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Holy crap best news I've heard in a long time. First real post presence we've had since KG left town, and in reality he wasn't doing much the last year or 2 he was here anyways. While Horford may not be a great player in any one area, he is very good in all, making him a great signing. Add on to this that Durant reportedly wanted him in OKC, us still having room for a max level player (please Durant ) and I am over the moon today. Almost forgetting about draft day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes it worse is it's a 2nd round pick xD Though it isn't the first time teams gutted picks way in the future. The 76ers literally own the Knicks 2nd round pick in 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021.

This makes a mockery of the draft. Picks are not even valuable teams throw them around like candy. Even first rounders have a high bust rate.
