    clipps gave up similar amts of picks as we did, we owe Pelly's 2, LAC owes 3 but if you count the 4th pick we gave up 3 1st as well. The other 2 1st LAC gave up belonged to Mia anyways, I'd argue we GAVE up way MORE than LAC, SGA=Ingram, depending on what OKC does with Gallo in terms of "value" I'd say that equals to maybe Hart. 4th/Ball part will exceed anything OKC is going to get out of those picks IMO unless 2 of those 5picks/swap turn into top 5, we gave up more.

    Why did they borrow the set of the new Saw movie for this?

    I have no idea. Maybe when you purchase the console you'll understand

    Maybe because 80% of the games are violent and bloody? :D LOL an exaggeration probably but I shot camera at E3 for Xbox press event 2012, 2013 at the Galen Center and Playstation 2014 at the Sports Arena before it was demolished soon after. Was pretty shocking how most of the games were violent.

    Have this coming up 7/26-30 somewhere in L.A. and no idea what the shoot is so I just looked it up this minute. Epic Games Oh look ... more R rated video games. :rock:

    Sure thing bud.

    First off, I misspoke on the 3+1. He's going into his 8th year this season, so he only needs a total 2 year deal next summer to become 35%max eligible.

    A 2+1 deal establishes that for him into a 35%max bag.

    Also check out the type of money he gets on 2 successive 1+1 deals vs a straight 2 year deal with 8% annual escalators.

    2 successive 1+1s vs 2yr deal w/8% annual escalators
    2020: 35.1 vs 35.1
    2021: 37.5 vs 37.9
    2022: eligible for 35% max

    With 1+1s, he gets less insurance against health but gains more leverage in getting the FO to keep aiming for a competitive roster.

    Thanks @vasashi17 ! Great insight! And makes sense why I've heard rumblings about that deal structure.

    LOL so true. Almost every video game involves killing something. Get a new slant industry!

    In the comments it said no players or press show up to a Clipper place so he can practice in peace.
