This the offseason, brehs.
It is what it is. Some people can't take any kind of criticism. Right or wrong, best way to disagree with an opinion is verbalizing it with the contrary and explaining why. Not start some hilarious and random name calling act.

I hope to see Randle rebounding, taking it up himself and dunking this season.
By joefu Go To PostAwww yeah we getting ZaZawhy is zaza a beast in 2k.
i can't.
It's okay, only a second round pick. I wonder if the Mavs are trying to salvage the season though. I hope not. I feel bad for Dirk, but best course of action is keeping that first pick.

Yo...Nance looks legit. Had a sick putback and a reverse layup. :|
Who's better DMo or Kanter? I get the feeling Cuban might max the dude next summer. And we can't extend him because of KD2keikaku.
Drew Gooden literally came off the street and shot 40% from three these last two years--I can't knock the mans hustle.
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostYo…Nance looks legit. Had a sick putback and a reverse layup. :|spurs and clippers were high on him too according to reports.
i think that's why mitch decided to reach for him in the first round.

The Knicks have reportedly re-signed Lance Thomas to a one-year, $1.6 million deal.No problem with this. Guy works hard, intelligent and knows the system. Decent jumper.

SLAENT Daily Fantasy Sports Thread of Losing your Cash One Day At A Time... lol
I heard Nance kinda fell because last year he was playing post injury. Heard he's supposed to be pretty athletic though.
So I'm guessing were signing Marcus Throton too? I like it. Riley had a meeting with him today and then he tweeted this.
By db Go To PostEvery team is lame other than GSW. Don't even know what people are going on about now.
let us know how you really feel.
why is GSW so cool, while the Grizzlies, Raps & Magic etc. are so lame.
Great article about the devaluation of the max contract in the NBA
http://www.cbssports.com/nba/writer/ken-berger/25237635/nba-max-money-explained-for-every-anthony-davis-theres-a-cory-joseph
This is completely correct. By placing an artificial restriction on salaries, max contracts have become meaningless. The top player should set the ceiling and the market will adjust around that. Instead we have Enes Kanter and Wes Matthews et al about to get max deals.
http://www.cbssports.com/nba/writer/ken-berger/25237635/nba-max-money-explained-for-every-anthony-davis-theres-a-cory-joseph
The problem is, outside the rarified air where Davis and other top-shelf superstars live, the NBA's max contract has become so common and overused as to completely lose its value and meaning. And critics say it's actually had the opposite effect than what owners intended when they pushed for it during the ugly 1998-99 lockout that cost owners and players hundreds of millions and canceled the All-Star Game.
"When you place an artificial bottleneck, you're going to create disequilibrium," agent David Falk, who represented the NBA's first $30 million-a-year player, Michael Jordan, told CBSSports.com.
"By saving $20 million on the best five players, you're probably paying 30 guys an extra $10 million each. If the owners realized that by saving $100 million it would cost them $300 million, do you think they would've done it?"
"When you set a max, it's a clear invitation to not only the Michael Jordans but also the Vin Bakers of the world to say, 'I'm somewhere on the high end of the spectrum, but I'm going to feel disrespected if I don't get the max,' " a person who was involved in negotiating the 1999 collective bargaining agreement told CBSSports.com. "It's going to be a high-water mark, and everyone's going to be seeking that level. You knew that players who weren't necessarily deserving were going to get it."
"If players were allowed to and able to get whatever the market would bear, does anybody think the numbers wouldn't be different than what they are right now?" Fleisher said. "My gut feeling is they'd be less. There would be a few guys with astronomical deals, but they're worth it."
How many current NBA players are "worth it"? That's a judgment call, and one the market is not capable of sorting out and agents can no longer fully negotiate. In Falk's estimation, you start with James and Kevin Durant and get to "maybe Russell Westbrook," he said. Bryant, who in 2013-14 became the first $30 million-a-year player since Jordan, would've spent a decade earning more than that in a free-market system. (Bryant's seven-year, $136 million deal from 2004-11 had been the high-water mark before Davis came along.)
"If you only had Kobe and LeBron making the max all these years, no player in the league would ever think they were worth what Kobe and LeBron are worth," Falk said. "So you're grossly overpaying the people that aren't as valuable because you've created this artificial limitation."
This is completely correct. By placing an artificial restriction on salaries, max contracts have become meaningless. The top player should set the ceiling and the market will adjust around that. Instead we have Enes Kanter and Wes Matthews et al about to get max deals.

Clarkson looked like the best player on the floor. I don't think Russell is ready to start watching that but we'll see how he does in Summer League. Randle and Nance looked good too...
Personally I really fine with it, more player get the slice of pie
The true top player will get plenty more income from external endorsement anyway that such like DJ and Wes wouldn't get.

LOOOL! Fansided ran this article (read the URL) about the dunk:
http://fansided.com/2015/07/09/jerian-grant-dunk-summer-league-video/
The rookie made his presence known in the Summer League on Thursday night, throwing down a monster jam that made the words 'electrify' and 'Knicks' fit in the same sentence in a positive way. Buckle up for Jerian Grant, who just made the Knicks more
And took it down.
^ I think knux would be totally down for a Grant for Grant swap.
Get it done, Phil.
Give Knicks fans that electrifying talent they're dying for.
