LOL.

I swear, how do these multi-billion dollar businesses hire these goons. I'd understand if you had no control over Lonzo's future, but this makes absolutely no sense with his full RFA rights.

New York, WHAT THE F ARE YOU DOING??? lol. My guess is Thibs is running that show full on.

 

[The_Jamal]

Both pretty fair deals for the Knicks. About the going rate for quality rotational/starting caliber- guys.

Satoransky and Temple are the key to unlocking Zion. Hahahaha

Dang! Burks alternates between being hot garbage and super stud pretty regularly so Im curious how that works out for NY

HAM BOMB

I'm really happy for him (Doug, not Ham). Also think he is a good addition and another move that should improve our D.

Burks was just about out of the league for a reason. That's how you get Jason Thompson/K9 deals on your cap sheet.

It's a ton, but I'd have 0 issue paying that as the Cavs. They really don't have to pay any of their core for awhile (Sexton the only one coming up soon).

Might as well go for a PF and throw the last bit of dirt on their top 10 lottery pick.

I wonder how Kayte would take to "hotter than fish grease" Speaking of Mark Jones, where is our good man Vinny Basketballerino?

Pistons apparently just going to keep overpaying random bigs?

If his run in Houston was real then that could be a steal. It worked with Grant last year so they are being smart finally. They have a ton of young talent and just got a big that can play next to their young stud C and got someone for Cade to kick to.

Yeah I don' mind that Kelly O deal at all. They need spacing in the worst way and clearing out the paint for Cade seems like a smart move.

Hate that it blocks Isaiah Stewart, but they can probably get some run together.

I don't think they'll be blocking Stewart with the way he looked when he finally got burn. This is actually a pairing that can work as a side by side/one in for the other kind of deal. Plumlee was a terrible fit, this not so much.

Probably my favorite Wildcat of the Sean Miller era. Glad to see him sticking around.

 

[SacTownKid]

So many teams keeping it the same this year! Nets/Lakers. Screw you both, lol. Maybe teams are like what's the point anyway.

 

[Tetsujin]

Misread the Kelly O contract as being 37 mil for 2 years. Yeah that's not bad at three seasons

So the Raptors S&T with Lowry takes their cap space. Mavericks should be out with THJ and Boban resigning. Pistons used their space on Kelly O. Knicks brought back Noel with Mitch Rob still on the team. Hornets drafted Kai Jones, traded for Mason Plumlee.

That's it right? Holmes suitors are out?
