2023 NBA Free Agency Thread

[Bodhi]

Reaves back to the Lakers for 4/56M.

His agent is certainly not the CEO of Klutch Sports or any other agency…..

The league let the Lakers get away with this... WHY?

Not as simple as just offering. Two things. 1. If they are only doing it to force lakers into a cap situation, that’s dumb because they are risking losing on other free agents. 2. Not many teams have the space and don’t want to risk the lakers passing.

Interesting thought... maybe Dame intentionally waited for Jerami to get a proper bag before asking out.

Reportedly Blazers are shopping Grant now.

Makes LaMelo's face even more punchable.

So Toronto has watched Leonard, Lowry, FVV walk out the door and all they have to show for it is Precious Achiuwa…. Rough

Oh, and a ring, I guess.

I’m not really bummed about not getting Reaves I just wish someone offered him a bigger contract than that.

100%… I said so in one of the threads… I don’t think the Blazers are completely left in the dark though. I think they kinda knew it was coming. He will be fairly easy to move if healthy.

People acting like this caught the Blazers off guard. If the entire NBA world knew it was coming, I guarantee the Blazers knew.

Yes they got that… it’s less about the risk they took with Kawhi than the follow ups. Gotta cash in on Lowry/FVV… indecisiveness cost em pretty big.

It makes me think of Hayward and the **** he pulled a little bit. Not as vindictive but still similar.

Hate to say it but the Lakers have done really well in free agency.

Except we were on the come up… raps should have just leaned all the way in to a rebuild… they are still in purgatory a bit as OG likely not extending… does Pascal?

DA was super smart to get in front of this.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

So every year, one or more disgruntled stars ask to be traded. And every year, they request LA, NY or Miami. Makes me feel better about sending DMitch to Cleveland.

I don't mind it. They're still highly dependent on Lebron, who will turn 39 this coming season, and Davis, who is still injury prone.

Because it was so important that we keep KO or THT or whatever. It’s really important for some reason.
