He didn’t join a team with 2 stars. Under your own terms Bosh wasn’t on the team.

Looks like Favors to NOP is a done deal.

Ball
Jrue
Ingram
Zion
Favors

Bench:
Redick
Hart
Melli
Okafor
Hayes
NAW

Damn. Talk about a transformation in one offseason.

No I wanted to run it back first and foremost. When it looked like they were gonna get jimmy I started talking about it Bc I am an eternal optimist what can I say. I would’ve been happy to have jimmy just like I am happy to not have him. But restaurant assured run it back was my first choice.

Reddick and Hart coming of the bench? I’m jelly. That’s a nice squad. If Zion is as good as advertised that’s maybe even a possible playoff team.

Still tbd if Alvin gentry knows wtf he is doing though

Long story short, you were ok with having a superteam.

If you were truly opposed to it you would've said so when it was least convenient for you to say so, which is when your team wanted to do it. But you dropped your principles when it looked like your team might benefit from having another star.

Top 10 or 15 it isn’t that specific. You know one when you see it.

Like I said WBB, you’ve completely dropped the intellectually part and are just straight dishonest.

the NBA isn't a free market

but to respond to PJ, the players get a certain % of revenue. max deals are based off of a % of that %

the NBA has to pay them these salaries due to their CBA

Correct. No one would ever say they were. That was a fairly built team. Through the draft. Super team implies an elite player changing teams to join up with 2 or more all stars.
