    some of these offers are nuts

    Asik 3/25M :fp:


    Roy Hibbert has two max deal offers although he only averaged 12.8 points, 8.8 rebounds and two blocks a game last season. :fp: Max deals should go to players like lebron, rose, durrant....not second tier players :fp:

    This is just supporting the observation that too many of these GM's make bad contract offers. It's only a matter of time until Rashard Lewis is eclipsed by another player with a huge contract that he's not worth.

    Yep, this guy is a complete asshole. I don't think it's possible for him to have handled this situation any worse.

    You think the Bulls match it? Common sense would say "hell no", but they always talk about how much the bulls love Asik. I don't really get the love for him. Decent defensive player and rebounder, but has ZERO offensive game....the guy can barely dribble. Should be interesting to see what happens here...

    at that sort of cash....i wouldn't match....way to much for a guy that only plays 1/4 of the game

    dude has absolute bricks for hands. d rose in a full body cast could still handle the ball better

    Yeah, I wouldn't match it for that money either. Go for Duncan. :lol: (not likely though, that guy will retire a Spur).

    I think the dislike towards him is more justified than LBJ's. Dwight's actually acting like a baby. LBJ just made a decision that a lot of people don't appreciate.

    The Decision is easier to swallow that Dwight's debacle.

    I'd hate to be a Magic fan right now.

    Great point. LBJ is much more likable than Howard at this stage. LBJ could have been crying for the last couple years in Cleveland when he had a horseshit supporting cast around him like Dwight does in Orlando. Howard is always talking about his "brand". Doesn't he realize his "brand" will be nothing after this debacle?

    Yeah, it's tough to see them matching it. The contract he signed w/ HOU is for $5M, $5M, then $15M for the 3rd year. $15M for this guy??? Insanity.

    i need to bone up on my cap stuff, but isn't the salary cap hit the average value?

    if not, that 3rd year might be a posion pill

    but any way you slice it, way to much for a guy that plays less than 15 minutes per game.

    edit, from what i am seeing, the cap hit is the value of that's salary...not an average

    I know the cap hit in NHL is the average, but NBA is the actual number.

    I really hope the Bulls don't mess this up and match the offer. It would be one thing if he looked like he would turn into an offensive player, but it seemed like he got worse offensively this past season.

    Joe Johnson to the Brooklyn Nets for guards Anthony Morrow, Jordan Farmar and DeShawn Stevenson and forwards Jordan Williams and Johan Petro, along with a draft pick Brooklyn received from Houston in a prior deal.

    Jazz acquire Mo Williams, and trade Devin Harris for Marvin Williams from the Hawks.

    I don't think the Jazz are done making moves. They shed a little bit of space with that trade with Harris. No more CJ Miles. Don't expect to see Raja Bell in a Jazz jersey either, and a part of me thinks that they might use Paul Millsap in a trade package. :corn:

    I like the prospect of Mo Williams as a starting PG over Harris.

    I can't believe the Hawks found a team dumber then they are to unload Joe Johnson and his insane contract.

    I look forward to when the authorities find Billy King's missing body in Siberia later this summer.

    Deron Williams re-signs with the Nets for a five-year $98M contract. That is a lot of cheddar.

    Yea, but can they keep it under the salary cap?
