2023 NBA Free Agency Thread

Does anyone of us really know the type of people that are on the team? Their real personalities not what the PR department depicts them as. It has been my experience that most athletes are flawed individuals who have issues just like normal people.

I remember at the time there were reports of Ingles being prickly in the locker room and towards staff. People on here had a meltdown because of how liked he was.

Our heroes are rarely who we think they are.

Joe ingles is your hero? Dude is a douche bag

No. I was speaking in general. I have very few heroes, and one is certainly not an individual that dribbles a ball. But, I know many people do feel that way. Specifically, I don't think Joe is a dbag. I think he is an interesting dude and no better or worse than any other.

Initially it seemed like the new CBA would have a dampening effect on salaries, but it looks like the floodgates have opened anyway. Some of these deals are going to be major albatrosses down the road.

“We can always offload it as an asset when it’s expiring.”

I think it will eventually have a dampening impact. Several of these teams can't contain their FOMO. Restraint now, will pay off later.

As much as I hate to say it, I feel like the Lakers have done as well as anyone. Putting a much better supporting cast together than last year.

I guess he was left unimpressed by the Jerami Grant contract

Something something Dame time.

I actually don’t think that Jerami Grant contract is that bad.

Jerami Grant contract fulfilling the prophesy as the new John Collins contract. Infinity times it will be fake traded

 

[Elizah Huge]

According to Jake Fischer we reached out to OKC about Micic on draft night. He just signed with OKC though for 3/23.5M. I think we are definitely looking for a PG.

Except John Collins was like 23 when the drama with his trade began... Grant is like 29...

We'd like to welcome the Blazers into purgatory.

Not if they get assets for Dame. I actually think Dame is doing them a favor. They need to rebuild eventually, might as well start not and get whatever you can for him.

Why?
