NBA Offseason 2016 - FreeAgency money dried up...Waiters gets $2.6 after OKC pulled $6+ offer...

[Built4Life]

I want every player to get their fair market value. Hell, you can even tax 'em a bit. This is just surreal. You'd think Conley walked in on the other fucking a cheerleader, and the owner don't have a pre-nup.

Man... NBA ownership has never been good at how they give out contracts and the next lockout they are gonna ask for the same thing. Save us from ourselves..

 

[Amajorfucup]

Yeah. Very hands on when it came to his son... if you wanted to sign GREG, his son was part of the package. Not letting anyone fuck up his meal ticket.

fixed.

[Mack1052]

Jared Dudley 3 years 30 mil with the Suns

Weird signing for Phoenix. I know he can play either forward spot but when you draft two power forward in the top 10 and have Tucker and Warren at the 3, where does Dudley fit in?

 

[Amajorfucup]

Meanwhile Nate Robinson somewhere running wind sprints begging a NFL team for a job and minimum pay. Ultimate Dumbass.

 

[ScottyPiffen745]

Rajon Rondo.

Yeah, I'm gonna eat a gun tonight.

 

[LSN]

Man. I would just go lottery team. I'm never giving Mike Conley the biggest contract in NBA history.

as an owner/fans...memphis seem to be content w/ just making the playoffs...that's where conley will get the owner(s) their $$$ back...the owner won't/maybe can't risk being a lottery team...not in memphis imo

 

[Spectrum]

Knicks and Joakim Noah have officially agreed on a 4 year $72 million deal after meeting in Orlando tonight

 

[dik cashmere]

Mike Conley fucked the game up. I don't know if thats a good or bad deal at the moment.

Some signings don't make sense

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Lol

Evan F gat 5 years and 85 million

Wow

 

[Spectrum]

I don't think Mike Conley is the difference between making the playoffs or not though, right? You're telling me you couldn't use the 150M on multiple players???!

I couldn't pull the trigger on it man.. not on Mike Conley ...

in NBA 2k16 sure I can...in real life...who's really signing to memphis?

I won't say mike conley is the sole difference but he is integral...he leaves and other players will soon migrate as well

 

[dik cashmere]

Bazemore stays with Hawks 70 mil 4 years

 

[Spectrum]

Man. Memphis is forever fucked if being located there means they gotta give a mufucka who never made an all-star team
the richest contract in NBA history.

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Lol mike woulda made 100 million per

 

[LSN]

Man. Memphis is forever fucked if being located there means they gotta give a mufucka who never made an all-star team
the richest contract in NBA history.

it's like that for a lot of NBA teams...and why there is such a lack of parity among championship teams...esp. these last few years...couple that w/ a lack of talent in these recent drafts and you have these owners scrambling to give out these hefty contracts just to maintain a semblance of a team...these owners are their own worst enemies tho

 

[dik cashmere]

The money they're passing out is insane

 

[Maxxam]

 

[Mask]

Oh the irony. Cats complain about workers (the talent) getting paid but say nothing about the owners who make hand over fist.
Fuck that.. get what you can, and shit. The NBA games is way better than in years. The skill level is phenomenal. They only problem. Is that it lacks the rivalries that once existed.

Man I'm glad someone feels this way.
Thanks for using a small portion of logic in assessing this topic

Man the owners get major bank yearly.

 

[Mask]

The money they're passing out is insane

Just think about what they keeping

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

He's solid man. Optimism Leroy, optimism...



This is not the Billy King era

i swear to god this is the twightlight zone where a highlight reel is 17 points.

Boston should've went after Anderson

 

[Mask]

....guess they gonna trade their point guard then

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

It boggles my mind how men who managed to amass enough wealth to own a major sports franchise can have such piss poor negotiation skills.

This is like a nigga asking you to give him a ride to the store, and you give him your car to keep.

because none of this money goes to their bottom line lol. that's why. it's not actually real money. its just money that they have to spend so they spend it.

i don't know if the nba releases those figures but the nfl did.

nfl teams because of revenue sharing and shit made a minimum of $200 million last year. if you owned an nfl franchise, you made $200 million dollars to put into your pocket.

when i say that. i mean this is after all of the expenses. this is after payroll for everybody you employ, stadium lease, and all operating costs. for existing you got 200 million dollars.

im pretty sure with the new tv deals its the same for nba franchises so its like brewster's millions for these owners and gm's listen we gotta spend this money so lets spend it.

oh no don't get it twisted. we're happy that the players are getting paid
and this shit is funny too

[largebillsonlyplease]

Heres the funniest part about Mike Conley Sr.'s predicament... Greg Oden was supposed to be the real meal ticket. Mike Jr was just his teammate that got looks when the scouts started to come see Greg. Conley Jr ranking sky rocketed due in large part to playing with Oden.

that's a good ass dad. took another boy in so his boy could get ahead. look at em now

it was win win cause if oden panned out he would have been his agent too lol
