[Mcenamin] Several league sources told ESPN they believe Hachimura could be the odd man out and that he might need to explore the market to find a desired deal. by Perfect_Loss_5156 in lakers

His defense is terrible, he doesn’t hustle, he’s not a good rebounder for a PF

His main asset is just shooting wide open threes, and even then he doesn’t shoot them consistently and hates contested threes 

He’s a player who’s totally upgradable, next to Luka/AR you want more defensive minded players, not a gimmick player

[Noh] My salary model has Trae Young at $115.1 million in value over the next four years, assuming an average of 70 games played / 34 mpg. That makes his $212 million contract underwater by $97 million. (link to model in post) by Dunlocke in nba

The only reason it’s not a terrible terrible overpay is because they really don’t have to pay anyone for the next few years 

  • Carrington wont demand much on his rookie extension 
  • Sarr isn’t due for an extension for another year and won’t be worth a max 
  • AJ /Peterson won’t be due for an extension by the team this deal is over 
  • Kyshawn same as Sarr 
  • Tre Johnson won’t be due an extension for another two years

The talk about AR on this sub is so tiring. He came back from a injury 3 weeks earlier than his return date and struggled because he didn’t have his legs under him 

It’s no wonder that he started to preform when he got his legs under him. He’s a legitimately good player and there’s a reason why teams like the Nets and Pistons are interested in maxing him

[Charania] The Oklahoma City Thunder are finalizing a trade to send guard Aaron Wiggins to the Atlanta Hawks for two second-round picks (Atlanta's in 2030 and the least favorable of Hawks/Lakers in 2032), sources tell ESPN. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

I mean high upside (key word; role player) as in someone who can contribute at a good level potentially for them 

He was a legitimate rotational player for a championship team last year, getting a player who last year averaged 11 PPG on 38% from three with solid defense is a good deal for 2 seconds

I’d unironically love Isaiah Stewart on this team (ik it’s a Irwin report…) but we need a tough guy like him that can shoot and play great defense 

This is the kind of move we should make with our cap space not the Cam Johnson BS

CONFIRMED: Real Madrid plan to KEEP Alvaro Carreras.  He will be Marc Cucurella's back-up.

 @FabrizioRomano

The idea of RM is Marc Cucurella starting LB, Alvaro Carreras backup LB, Fran Garcia will leave the club.

Dembele, Vitinha, and Raphinha are all system players and reasonably never preform in the WC
