Things are likely not going to end well. We've seen how things have gone with the Blue Jays. Rogers will spend money, but they like to hire yes men...

[planetmars]

He's a Laker:

...

[planetmars]

Okoro resigns with the Cavs for 3 years, $38M. I suspect there are some non-guarantees in that deal but not sure. Either way that's about the ML...

[planetmars]

Lakers have 15 guys signed to deals, and are only $45K from the second apron. So if they waive a guy like Maxwell Lewis or Cam Reddish and even give...

[planetmars]

I'm a fan of Kel'el Ware and I think he'll fit in there well. But overall I don't really care for all their prospects either.

Scary Terry...

[planetmars]

Pacers have depth. We don't. Our bench is super thin IMO. So I'm not too optimistic. I mean if any of our top 4 guys get hurt, we're not winning...

[planetmars]

Top 10 is super subjective. I like to look at the All-NBA team for a good barometer test.

First Team - top 5.
Second Team - top...

[planetmars]

With Darko there will be lots of touches and lots of movement. I mean Jak is going to do a lot of the initiating as well from the elbow. As would Kelly...

[planetmars]

Duncan can't shoot unless it's near the rim. And he's an okay passer. But ultimately still super skilled. I just don't like your definition of "high...

[planetmars]

The only reason I used Kyle as an example was because he improved his 3pt shooting later in his career. And that was the only thing I was discussing....

[planetmars]

The longer it's taking to get a deal done, the more likely he goes back to the Cavs. Maybe on a 1+1 type of deal like Precious took with the Knicks....

[planetmars]

Looks like Jamal resigns with the Nuggets for the max. He had a pretty awful summer so a bit surprising. But takes him out of the market in free agency...

[planetmars]

Scottie doesn't really have a first step, and he can't really shoot well. So these two things hold him back.

My hope is he becomes more...

[planetmars]

They won the summer by getting both Hartenstein and Caruso. Those two guys know how to make winning plays. I think they are the team to beat. I like...

[planetmars]

Yeah, and it's actually been like that all summer. It's likely a typo....

[planetmars]

1. How many wins do the Raptors get? 32
2. What seed in the Eastern conference do they end up with (1-15)? 11
3. Who will be the starters...

[planetmars]

Let's get some predictions in for the season. We have so much time to burn before preseason let alone the regular season, so might as well.
...

[planetmars]

I'm in agreement.

I'm just talking about the starting unit, or let's reframe that and go most used 5-man lineup.

To win games,...

[planetmars]

I have this feeling that the front office (and by association Darko) is going to work real hard to prioritize Gradey's development over winning next season....
