Bucman 891 Posted July 1, 2013 @basketballtalk Andrew Bynum won’t work out for teams as a free agent http://dlvr.it/3bVCfM Wonder what GM will get desperate and give him the max contract. He doesn't deserve it and things like this prove it. He should be 100% fine and capable of doing workouts at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Klay Thompson is going to be awesome and Dwight is a douchebag who will probably cry every time Curry shoots instead of getting him the ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blotsfan 2,112 Posted July 2, 2013 Heat looking into Greg Oden. How funny would it be if Oden wins a ring before Durant? (kinda like Darko being the first from 03 to win one) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted July 2, 2013 Heat looking into Greg Oden. How funny would it be if Oden wins a ring before Durant? (kinda like Darko being the first from 03 to win one) It depends on what kind of role Oden has with a Heat championship. If he just wins a ring as a human victory cigar like Darko then nobody will care outside of a few jokes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonovanMcnabb for H.O.F 2,241 Posted July 2, 2013 sam_amickI've been told 4 years, approx $48 million on Evans' offer. @daldridgetnt has it at $44 million. Either way, doubt Kings would match either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonovanMcnabb for H.O.F 2,241 Posted July 2, 2013 Also I read earlier today that the Magic are going to try out Oladipo at PG during summer league to see how he looks running the point. Should be kinda cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he just wins a ring as a human victory cigar like Darko then nobody will care outside of a few jokes. It's more about if he can stay healthy or not. The question is probably not, but... if he can, he brings to Miami exactly what the Heat are and have been missing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted July 2, 2013 Also I read earlier today that the Magic are going to try out Oladipo at PG during summer league to see how he looks running the point. Should be kinda cool. He's got a similar build to Russell Westbrook. Westbrook also was a college SG who made the transition to a PG in the NBA. Not saying he'll be as good, but it is interesting. Might also be why Presti liked Oladipo so much. The Magic have no PG of the future so if Oladipo shows some ball handling ability, he can find his nitch there.

If he just wins a ring as a human victory cigar like Darko then nobody will care outside of a few jokes. I'd say thats the only way it happens. I don't think Oden is all of a sudden going to live up to the hype and be the top player from his class. I just think it'd be funny if after everything, it worked out that way.

Guest Phailadelphia Posted July 2, 2013 Three-team trade today. Clippers receive JJ Redick (holy shit dude) and Jared Dudley; Suns receive Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler (F4E should be thrilled about this); and the Bucks receive 2 2nd-rd picks. Seriously. The best they could get for Redick was 2 2nd-rd picks. lolBucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted July 3, 2013 They could have done a sign & trade. It was a sign and trade. Kevin Martin agrees to a deal with the Timberwolves. The Harden trade continues to look pretty shaky for the Thunder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BradyFan81 404 Posted July 3, 2013 Yeah, Milwaukee would've gotten nothing for Reddick, so it's pretty good on them to get 2 2nds at least. Those are some great additions by LAC. That team is looking nice now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bucman 891 Posted July 3, 2013 Dunno why the Suns would want another PG. They just drafted one in round 1 last year and already have Dragic. Bledsoe is good, but it seems the Suns made the trade just to make it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Dunno why the Suns would want another PG. They just drafted one in round 1 last year and already have Dragic. Bledsoe is good, but it seems the Suns made the trade just to make it. I am kind of... sort of confused, but am very excited about it. We traded for a player at maybe our only strong position which is why I am a little surprised. But, I like Bledsoe as a player, and this is a good move towards building for the future. Makes us 10x better without a doubt. My friend texted me that we got Bledsoe, and I was just completely caught off guard. I'll take it though. How we deal with Goran though will massively effect how I feel about this trade. If he gets shipped out, I would be massively pissed and feel that this move was fail... Even if we got much more for Dudley than we should have . Hopefully Suns management sees what I see with this move... Two headed monster in Goran and Eric running the length of the court and dishing it low to Alex Len. I would be pretty shocked if this isn't what they had planned, but very little could surprise me with the incompetence mgmt. has shown in recent years. I like the move a lot though... For now. Kendall Marshall being drafted was a massive mistake. Dunno why we did that to begin with and I would expect him to be on the way out as well. Now.... We have some aging players with big deals we need to move and it will be a pretty damn successful offseason. Gortat, Scola, and Beasley (rofl. Loser) all need to GO. Need to Goooooooo.
