2024-25 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

I don't think it's the same price cause Chicago is ran by some lunatics who are out of touch with reality. Have been for decades. They overvalue their assets and hold on to them for years too long. If it's Vuc for a 1st vs CC for 2nds, give me Clint.

I think Rob needs to ask AD and JJ to a degree, what's more important: a big to play next to AD or a big who can prevent the walls from caving in when he sits. We can get someone who can do one of the two, but probably not both unless Indy changes their tune. Then go get that guy.

 

What NTMLE level guards are expected to be bought out? That's all we could sign.

 

Depends on the protections on the 1st

 

It sure was.

 

Damn, gotta feel sorry for the man. I wanted him bad on the Lakers

 

Nice stats …. what a difference both sides of the ball DFS has made. Then you add Vando back and looking really good out of the gate. I agree with Slick he looks like he could have come back a week earlier but smart to be extra careful this time. And that he is an even more impactful defender than Dorian. Guy’s awesome at it. Another guy just like Finney-Smith that plays with a toughness edge to him and he’s quicker, bigger, stronger and gets up even tighter on his opponents. He’s really something.

 

yikes on murray...does this impact NO's plans? john wall was about the same age when he had the achilles (and was on a similar trajectory in many ways).

he's dead money next year and probably an overpay thereafter--is it time to press eject on the zion era?

 

The surgery, recovery and level of performance post injury has greatly improved since a Wall went through it. He doesn't rely on his athleticism as much as Wall did either. Still, he's probably not going to be the same or as good. That sucks, really enjoyed his game.

Yeah, if I'm NO i try to move all four of their top salaries. Zion, BI, CJ, and Murray (they'll have to wait on that one). Build around Murphy, Herb, Missi, and Hawkins. They fit next to any kind of headliner. So once they reset, they can pivot to whatever star they want once they clear the books and get picks to offer up for such a player.
