RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - khaled1987 - 12-14-2020 (12-14-2020, 05:46 PM)StepBackJay Wrote: Right but that was infinity years ago and Harden/Embiid are different players. I don't disagree that he might rather have Simmons. It's hard to say really. I think Simmons is a very good player but I can't see how he and Embiid will ever fit together. I agree with this. As good as Embiid is, I think Simmons is more valuable in the long run RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - aguiar95 - 12-14-2020 https://twitter.com/Aziz9423/status/1337963769163636739?s=20 RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - KillerLeft - 12-14-2020 (12-14-2020, 09:17 PM)aguiar95 Wrote: https://twitter.com/Aziz9423/status/1337963769163636739?s=20 This has to be some kind of troll from them...if they're really this ridiculous, I don't know what anything in life means anymore. RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - HoosierDaddyKid - 12-15-2020 Giannis just signed that extension. Better find someone else to chase in FAgency. RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - FunkBoreland - 12-15-2020 This is great news RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - HanspardsShowerVoice - 12-15-2020 I never really thought Giannis was coming here, so I'm just happy he's staying in Milwaukee. It's better for the league if all of their superstars don't become 2-3 year mercenaries and small markets at least have the hope that then can be competitive if they draft and develop a star. RE: AROUND the NBA: not impressed by Wall, Harden still pushing to be traded - michaeltex - 12-15-2020 I guess all the roster moves DAL made THIS offseason don't look so bad now, do they? Improvements across the board, a group of interesting rookies and financial flexibility to continue improving at the TDL and next summer. Now the MBT can be opportunistic and not just save powder for GA. NBA West is going to be tough, but I like our chances.

I mean I'm not complaining AT ALL about this offseason but it's obvious the MBT handcuffed themselves to preserve cap space for next summer and Giannis. So I dont see how Giannis staying makes our offseason moves look any better. That's backwards.

Sure Houston would prefer some young asset and talent over Butler. More importantly Butler would hate it at rebuilding Houston. He basically forced his way to Miami for the franchise culture. RE: AROUND the NBA: Harden pushing to be traded, is he the next domino to fall? - Mavs2019 - 12-15-2020 After some further evaluation, MBT fucked up badly. With the two pre-season games we damaged the Greek Freak´s confidence so badly, that he was afraid nobody would even offer him the MLE anymore, so he jumped on the first best offer he got.

Didn't you see what happen to ATL Hawks this offseason with all the cap space they had? Unless I miss something, please explain why you said its backwards.

You really didn't put great example. Atlanta hugely overpaid all three free agents they signed. Do you want Mavs to use cap space this way?

I'm guessing this means the talk about Luka's weight is officially old news. https://twitter.com/cjzero/status/1339015427872223238 RE: AROUND the NBA: Harden pushing to be traded, is he the next domino to fall? - BolsDamols - 12-15-2020 (12-15-2020, 08:32 PM)Tyler Wrote: LOL.

Didn't you see what happen to ATL Hawks this offseason with all the cap space they had? Unless I miss something, please explain why you said its backwards. The logic is backwards. Mavs "handcuffed" themselves this offseason to one year deals because they wanted to leave max room for Giannis. I think the Mavs had a good offseason. But Giannis staying in Mil doesnt make our offseason look better. Maybe the Mavs pursue other players on longer deals if Giannis was already off the board. We wont ever know. To put it another way, you just mentioned how ATL overpaid people with their cap space. So what good is preserving cap space for next summer? They were doing it for Giannis. If Giannis was off the board, one of the major goals this offseason wouldn't have been to have max cap space. Without that "handcuff" we dont know if the offseason wouldve been even better. So technically, Giannis staying in Mil probably makes the Mavs offseason moves look worse, not better. Now one of the major accomplishments of this offseason (preserving max space) is worth almost nothing. |
