2014 NBA Off-Season Thread

Now we know who is in trade talks for Lin. The Sixers.

 

Manu: My guard.
Patty: My guard.

Lebron: Midol

 

Carmelo still in meetings with the Rockets. Interesting because he was supposed to meet with Mavericks also. This meeting is going MUCH longer than anticipated.

 

Cavaliers might give Gordon Hayward a max contract....unreal. Im a huge fan of his but I dont think hes worth that much. More power to him though.

 

Max contract to a guy that got wet willied.

 

He's restricted, so Utah can match it.

 

I doubt they would match that. The Cavaliers are trolling the Jazz hard if this is true.

 

I doubt it, but Utah has a TON of money to spend. They are trying to bring Carmelo and LeBron over, but that ain't gonna happen. Where else will they spend the money haha

 

Nets have reached an agreement with Lionel Hollins for new Head Coach position.

 

Of course the 76ers would, they will get draft picks and can throw another season without it looking as blatantly obvious.

 

There's nothing about Philly throwing a season that isn't blatantly obvious. It's like they changed their team logo to a toilet ring.

 

So Ginobli played with a fracture in his league the whole finals.

 

Pau Gasol drawing interest from Bulls and Thunder

 

Spurs and Patty Mills just agreed to a 3 year contract.

LeBron James still unsure about what he wants to do. Would be epic as hell is Wade and Bosh take pay cuts and then LeBron goes elsewhere hahaha



The Thunder have become the front runners for Pau Gasol!!!!!! Hell yeah!! That would be fuckin sick, Westbrook, Durant, Ibaka, Gasol, and Jackson!

Pau Gasol Addendum No. 2: Hearing Pau, as with OKC, indeed giving legit consideration to San Antonio if he looks at places where $ is scarce


If the Knicks are out of the Pau race, would love to see Pau in San Antonio. Would also to love to see him in OKC, HOU, and any contender to be honest.

 

Wow a lot less than I thought. The injury probably affected it but I guess he really wanted to be a Spur. Really good news, gives them a chance to resign Boris.

 

Is Pau now choosing between the Spurs and Thunder?

And Melo visits with the Lakers tomorrow. Is it plausible that he could be a Laker?

 

I haven't read anywhere about Melo visiting the Lakers. As far as I know, he visited the Rockets today for 6 hours, including a dinner, and will be visiting Dallas tomorrow.

 

Durant and Westbrook flew over to LA to make a sales pitch to Gasol. If OKC were to land Gasol, they would instantly be favorites for the West, over San Antonio.
