2018 Free Agency and Offseason Thread
 

Now that the 2017-18 season’s officially history, it’s time to begin the offseason and free agency hype, for what will be a crazy summer. Some huge names will be hitting free agency. Discuss whatever you want, news, predictions, rumours, whatever...

Most interesting non-LeBron related question will be whether or not New Orleans tries to keep Cousins or not given that they played better without him.

That Kobe like passiveness tonight means someone’s on the move

I think Manu retires and Tony moves on this offseason. My .02

Lebron to the Knicks.

I think Cousins is gone

[QUOTE=exoticprince;13621288]I think Cousins is gone[/QUOTE]

I agree, they played the same or better without him. I think they do a sign and trade.

lebron, paul george, and demar derozan to the clippers

LeBron is a disaster... and bcuz of that, I think he will go to the Lakers to further there disaster

BUT, if he wants to win and get to the Finals again, he needs to stay in the East

lebron to the Lakers is the most comical thing ever

for one. kuzma and Ingram play same type of position neither of them could guard bigger 4s or quicker 2s

and 2, there are no shooters on that team....none

That's why he's a perfect match for their dysfunction!

I wouldn’t be surprised if the picked up JJ reddick and did a sign and trade for Cousins

The Lakers are one of those teams that could look very different quickly

Lebron to the Jazz, confirmed.

Assuming that that doesn’t actually happen, I’d be interested in talking to the Wiz about Otto Porter. He’s really expensive and given the other decisions they’ve made, the Wiz have buried themselves. I think they will be lokkkg for a team that they can offload salary on,
and the Jazz have three guys on team options for this year who are incredibly valuable.

I also think Bjelica is a match made in heaven for Utah.

Good article on the Ringer discussing how every potential destination for LeBron has both upsides and downsides:

Control - f - “Jazz”

“No matches”.

This article sucks.

[QUOTE=CC71;13621412]lebron, paul george, and demar derozan to the clippers[/QUOTE]

Lol, I wish! I don’t even think they can get one of those let alone two or even all three. I’d love Paul George, hoping Deandre and Austin opt out then we could sign PG. combine him with some rookies and solid pieces we have it will be fun to watch and they should compete

It also sucked because it sucked in general.

If that ever happened at least I can see the Knicks in the playoffs again :D

So Lebron bought another house in LA.

Now rumors going around saying he enrolled his kids in the LA system

Even Gary Payton is doubling down on that rumor

Though administrators at Sierra Canyon has refuted the rumors

This sh!t is too funny!

Also Warriors might be interested in Anthony Davis, but I dont see that happening unless they break up the core 4

Denver or Jazz please.

i think maybe sierra canyon agreed not to leak anything out until lebron officially announces that he's joining an L.A. team. if that's the case then of course they'll deny it

They could 100% get Derozan. He's being shopped. But it'll cost picks. Not sure George leaves OKC for anywhere except the Lakers.

The Toronto Raptors are hiring assistant Nick Nurse as the franchise's new head coach, league sources tell ESPN. Sides are working through details of contract now.

Breaking news, the Bucks will do nothing

[QUOTE=dherm360;13630014]Breaking news, the Bucks will do nothing[/QUOTE]

bucks have a pretty good team. just need a coach that can get them to play consistent. if that happens they should be a top 4 team in the east depending on what other moves happen in the east
