What's new

2025 Free Agency Thread

Maybe they try and do a one year tank. Kind of feels like Boston might try the same thing.

There needs to be a way to discourage one year tanking/picking up a top draft pick when your star player gets hurt. The top draft picks should be for rebuilding teams/teams without stars.

There have been proposals around winning percentages for several years being considered for lottery odds, or something around teams with top 5 MVP players not eligible for the top 3 picks.
 
Yeah ain't no way this new CBA deal lasts. 99% of the players in the league are getting poorer while that top 1% elite is getting richer. Second apron is ruining teams, players and the league.
I mean, as a small market team the second apron is awesome. The NBA will start to look more like the NFL parity wise and that is good.
 
I'm trying to figure out where the Celtics are going to end up. Probably just low enough to get the #1 pick.
This. We'll end up at 2nd worst and get the 4th pick and the Celtics will end up at 14th and get #1. Is there a generational talent coming out next year? If not then we have a shot at a higher pick, like 3rd.

So maybe no more dynasties in the NBA
Six different teams have won the championship last six years
Some of them have been small markets
 
It is... but... I guess they chose a path and they are executing. They pretty much have decided that without Giannis they have no future in the next few years and if they are keeping him, they better go all in for the next few years so...

This is the Bucks best chance to win. Giannis vs this East....they won't have a better chance than they do now. Their last few moves have been pretty awful though.
 
Toronto should have gotten in on Miles Turner. I'm guessing he didn't want to go there, but Turner/CMB would be a really nice front court. Turner/CMB/Barnes/Ingram/Quickley starts to make some sense to me.
