He better take that tax free Texas money from Dallas. He fired his agent too. His new agent must be family.

Nerlens should just take a one year 17 mil

You don't know ? about the nba don't call nobody else out about it. -

Although I think its dumb of him. At the same time I can't really fault him either.
For so many years the nba has broke the bank with drafting and paying players off potential alone with little to no production.
So I actually see why he holding out for as long as he can looking to get more money. I'd rather Ernie Grunfeld ? ass have given Noel that same contract he gave Mahimi last year if Noel would've eventually taken it. -

How many years? If they are offering 4 or 5 years he's dumb, but if it's a short term deal he probably knows his health won't permit and his value will never be as high as it is now which isn't all that high to begin with, if it was he'd be getting offers from other teams forcing Dallas to match but that hasn't happened, he's probably looking at it like it's Dirks last year, they traded assets for me and there's no other options for Dallas they will ? eventually -

I was looking but I couldn't find the years on that offer -

Lol this guy about to be playing in Israel
For a fraction of what he just got offered. His agent aint keeping it 100 with him.
25.5 million per year -

i almost feel bad for IT
bad timing on the contract year
coming off a serious hip injury
closing in on 30
and no chance of a growth spurt
yet hes convinced the brinks truck is coming
the GM that gives IT $200 mil will be fired before that contract runs out
i dont think anyone will though
he might get 70ish million dollars less than he was hoping
76ers (fultz)
lakers (ball)
mavs (DSJ)
not too many teams with a PG need and that kinda cap spa BAH GAWD ALL MIGHTY THATS THE CHICAGO BULLS MUSIC
-
bulls players in the gym improving and wade prancing around all summer with his ankles out
they fed up
dude spent all summer dressing like his favorite 90s R&B star
no basketball in sight -
I just think GMs are being logical. They're bot giving no max to no 5'6 midget

Don't forget the Knicks.... they known for this.... -
Wade on the bulls = ewing on the sonics,hakeem on the raptors
When Lavine is ready wade is gone & Lavine been puttin in work all summer that could be sooner than later
Future all star who will average 22-25 ppg on 48% fg and 38-40% 3's -
I'm not buying lavine as an all star. He may get there cuz i don't think there are no other 2 guards in the eastern conference.
Eventually he'll settle into a jamal crawford great 6th man role. He doesnt play defense and doesn't really look for others -
bulls got $26 million in cap now
could be $53 million next summer
all that money to not get any top guys
they need to be prudent like the sixers/celtics have been with their cap and wait until necessary to make a splash
bulls should be focused on drafting better
development
and only using cap on young RFAs or facilitating trades -

No he won't.Averaged 19 ppg(15 fga, 46%) as a 3rd option with a 21% usage rate.That's efficient which crawford has never been.
Meanwhile ic favorite overrated player to dickride wiggins had a 29% usage rate,played more mins and had the ball more than lavine and averaged 2 assists a game(has had lower assist % than lavine his whole career) and has a worse dpm #'s yet everyone keeps saying "just wait be patient".Lavine is a more efficient scorer,better passer/playmaker and shooter.I bet money lavine will be an all star within 3 years.
Only thing in this post that made sense is his defense being suspect which he can improve on.He needs to work on getting to the line more too. -

I disagree.
He's a better playmaker than given credit for despite being the 3rd option on that team and does actually try on defense. Not great but he does try.
I think he'll relish being the number 1 option especially because dude can shoot. It'll be a learning curve but he's a starter in this league. He's going to get better -
taylor: andrew are you committed to improving?
wiggins: yeah i am committed where do i sign?
after 3 years you should know what your guy is about
someones habits can change but tough to reward someone with a max deal if youre unsure (even though going rates say he deserves it) -
The more I think about it ? Boston and the league in terms of business. I get it, I do but players are too scrutinized and vilified for leaving and doing what they want. GMs get to skate past that ? under the guise of business
I'm glad players can make their own decisions. IT played 2 days after his sister died and continued to you stay with the team. Dropped 53 in the playoffs, on her birthday and the Cs treated homie like he wasn't ? . -
loyalty in sports is the most overrated ? thing that ownership invented

Kyrie wanted to get traded cuz the cavs had a deal before the draft to acquire pg and bledsoe.Kyrie would of went to the suns,#4 pick to the pacers,pg & bledsoe to the cavs.
the deal was agreed to then dan gilbert said no.Cavs gm at the time griffin told kyrie before or after he got fired and kyrie said ? the cavs as a result.That's the real reason, not the wanting to lead his own team or not wanting to play with lebron like the media spinnin it. -
That might be the realest ? that ? ever said.
