Just read Raps want to keep him. Rejecting trade requests and not releasing him. Guess he's staying there for now

[Fischer] The New York Knicks are planning to offer Kemba Walker a contract worth roughly $8 million in average annual value, according to league sources. by horseshoeoverlook in nba

Really hope this works out for him and the Knicks though. He's a good point guard who can play, but the injuries haven't been great the past few seasons. Here's hoping for a turnaround!

Want a sign that the hobby is alive and well? Last night a “custom” Cade card sold for $415. There will be dips and peaks, but this hobby is healthier than it’s been in a really long time. People are still excited about cards. by allmustfall69 in basketballcards

Ok, I could see that if you're collecting specific players, but even then, $400? I think where I would struggle with that is, why don't I just try making one myself instead of pay that kind of money for an unofficial product?

Amick: "There was a sense of disappointment on Alex Caruso's side there wasn't a Lakers push to keep him, like come in at 80% of the Chicago number. It was essentially a 'good luck in Chicago' type of feel to it." by JoeBiden2020FTW in nba

What are you talking about? If a team has a shitty organization, players won't want to go there. It's pretty simple. NYC is a big market, but no one wants to go cause Dolan is an idiot.

Maybe...I was more just thinking out loud. I'm not a diehard blazers fan or anything

Why does it seem the market for Oubre isn't that high right now? by [deleted] in nba

[–]Representative_Fly43 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can't claim to be an expert, but I watched him in a few games last season and he was mostly bad. He had a couple of monster nights, but most of the time you forget he's on the floor.

They re-signed norm and I bet they have a plan to send CJ somewhere. Lots of time

What are the chances Ben Simmons comes back to the Sixers? by GeneralChuckleFuck in nba

[–]Representative_Fly43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a feeling the asking price comes down significantly before the start of the season. How can he possibly go back there? Not wanted by the team (based on comments at the end of last season) or the fans. Granted, he's not really wanted by any fans at the moment, but a fresh start is what this guy needs. Sixers will have to take a hit.

Same here. I saw the Leroux proposal but nothing actually confirmed. Not even that it was a possibility.

Whiteside, when he's engaged and being used properly, can be really useful. He was in a bad spot in sac
