There's some crazy monopoly $ going around for people throwing a ball into a hoop.

Knew I chose the wrong profession.

 

[Millsy1]

Some players got well and truly paid today, some overpaid haha Asik, Shumpert, T Thompson, Love ect ect ect.....

How the fk do the Cavs fit all these players in with those salaries, LeBron has to re-sign as well, which will be close to $30M a yr surely.

 

[Rod]

Lebron won't get $30m, he'll be closer to $20m I'd say he's never been ridiculously paid. Cavs will be pushing it but they'll fit him in.

Some crazy money being thrown around but in terms of the market most seem about right. I imagine Kawhi's contract will be looking very good in 4-5 years time.

His NBA deal is like pocket money to him, he has been willing to sacrifice it for better teammates because he makes so much through endorsements etc I mean he signed a lifetime deal with nike in highschool.

Thompsons money is crazy imo, he is a rebounder ffs. No way he gets that if he wasn't Brons guy, good for him though. Im guessing the cave will be paying the tax this year.

 

[betcats]

Monroe to the bucks is done I believe, not sure of the $$.

 

[Rod]

It's easy to say Thompson is just a rebounder but apart from obviously LeBron, his rebounding was a major factor in keeping the Cavs competitive in those finals, he was practically unstoppable on the glass.

Plus he hasn't agreed to terms yet anyway?

 

[gorilla with a shotgun]

As a Celtic's fan im wondering what the f**k are we doing paying an average injury prone PF (A position we have Sully and Olynyk in already) 12 million a year.

The only good that can come of this is if Isiah Thomas gets injured and we get Simmons in the next draft.

In hindsight making the 8th seed this playoffs has f**ked us hard.

It makes me smile seeing the Lakers go from trying get Jordan and Aldridge to trying to convince Josh Brick Smith to sign.

 

[Millsy1]

LaMarus Aldridge @aldridge_12
I'm happy to say I'm going home to Texas and will be a Spur!! I'm excited to join the team and be close to my family and friends.

@WojYahooNBA
LaMarcus Aldridge will sign a four-year, $80M deal with Spurs -- including player option on 4th year. http://t.co/WKmOmOR2eE

Lakers trade for Hibbert, only giving up a future second round pick, for a one year rental who fills a need as a defensive centre along side Randle it is worth a shot, as our pick is only top 3 protected next season we need to try put a solid team together, just need to find a solid SF now

Hibbert is a good player in the right system despite all the hate he gets. Lakers signed Lou Williams also which is strange as you guys drafted a PG, Clarkson who was good in his rookie year and already have Swaggy on the bench. hmm.

How good will the Spurs be if they stay fit next year. I love Aldridge. Playing with the Spurs should give his a body a bit of a rest.

Also good to see Baynes get paid. Must be encouraging for him to know somebody as influential as SVG rates him in his limited time in the NBA

 

[HowHigh]

Very happy with the Aldridge signing and locking up Leonard and Green.
I think the Spurs still need to add a little depth after letting Baynes, Splitter, Belinelli and Joseph go but should be able to attract a couple veterans on cheap contracts hopefully.

 

[Rod]

Ask and ye shall receive :lol:. David West on a veteran minimum contract is the steal of the year, ridiculous really.

 

[Millsy1]

The Spurs really did sneak under the radar in free agency getting Aldridge and West.

 

[Johnnie Red]

David West is a massive steal! If the Spurs can stay healthy they will be be in with a big chance. Keeping Duncan, Manu and Parker healthy will be a tough ask though.

Hopefully Patty can have a good season and get some significant minutes.
