re: NBA Offseason Trade & FA thread: KD To Ws, Wade to Bulls

Danny Ainge could have read the tealeves and got KD i stand behind that statement.
I don't know what KD wants to do, I don't think he knows what he wants to do, but I do think he wants out or else he would have signed the offer from OKC without having all this unnecessary drama. It's been 10 years since someone went through all this drama just to resign (Kobe) and even then not to this extent. It's been a LONG time since someone interviewed this many teams and decided to stay put, I think maybe tim duncan when he flirted with the magic back in the early 2000's
Boston, could have sold him on having 3 all stars on their roster besides him if they had Jimmy Butler. Boston, could have sold him on having depth and not having to defend the best player on the other team becuase they have smart and crowder and bradley. Boston could have sold him on sleep walking to the eastern conference finals for the next 6 years and being able to not have to go at it every single night in the EC like he does in the WC. they would be a virtual lock to make the finals after 2016 damn near for the next half decade.
Ainge could have sold him on that and i think he would have bit. worse case scenerio you got a team with horford, buttler and IT and Brown on it and more picks that you can't use.
What the frick is the point of having all these picks for the future when you got a shot to make your team a legit contender right now. There is NO reason not to trade for JImmy Butler. Ainge has to win the trade and this is not a trade he wins on paper he's giving up too much which is why he won't do it and why he needs to be fired

You gotta think he gives it one more go. He's at least gotta test out the new teammates that OKC got. He will end up signing 1+1 with OKC
From a basketball perspective, this is the most logical decision. They were 6 minutes away from going to the Finals if Klay Thompson doesn't have an out-of-body experience shooting from 3.
However, the more I think about it.. The more likely it seems Durant just doesn't want to do this free agency thing again. Think he might stay put and ride out this contract.
If he doesn't win a 'ship in this contract with OKC, I can see him moving on a cheap contract to a contender.

Mavs re-sign Deron Williams for 1 year $10 million and Dwight Powell for 4 years $37 million (player option 4th year)

Cuban trying to hit that salary floor now after missing on everyone 
My dream is Durant chooses GS tomorrow, Dirk signs for a minimum with GS as well to get my favorite player one more ring

It's incredible, really. And it's only getting worse

TBH, those actually arent bad deals compared to what other dudes have been getting.

That's gonna be a funny picture when KD picks the Cs
Posted on 7/3/16 at 11:22 pm to castorinho
Just the fact that Austin Rivers will receive more money than every WNBA player combined
Posted on 7/3/16 at 11:27 pm to Patton
I don't see him leaving OKC. They made a really good trade and I think he wants to stick around and give it another try.

Yes. The fact that you keep referencing stats that are over the course of a players career and not the actual play they had during their heat run just shows you're either intentionally dumb, or trolling

Crazy that with the increase of the cap next year some of these deals this year will look minor.

It's gonna be bonkers next year, with probably more movement
