2025-26 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

Next years team could potentially be:

PG: LUKA, REAVES. FA
SG: REAVES, KENNARD, KNECHT. FA
SF: SMART, JONES, LARAVIA
PF: JAMES, RUI, THIERO
C: MISSI, AYTON, HAYES

 

Williams- hammy
SGA - hand
Wemby - concussion
ANT - knee
Rockets - no point guard and a s***ty coach

While we didn't know the team was going to have the March they did, this is why I hate not taking bigger swings at the deadline when you have a prime Luka on the roster.

You NEVER know how an injury (injuries) can change everything.

Flip side is we have our own injuries too, so maybe even if those above break favorably it still might not matter.

 

good
Oklahoma is getting on nerves of whole NBA

 

So true,



Caruso fouls on every play, seriously (he might be worse than Dort). I miss the guy but watch him closely. He should be out of the game at around half of the first quarter.

 

Of course, we could also point out that we gave them Zubac for nothing years back and that they have never reciprocated. Start a public campaign of dishonor towards them!?!?!?

 

OKC ruined him. They poison everything they touch. We could rehabilitate him though. I'd take him back in a heartbeat.

Good tweet except for one thing: OKC is definitely undeserving of its success.

 

Sign him!!! It????

 

How much load managing required for "it" .... repairs, maintenance, etc? Wouldn't fly though the players' association probably would immediately start bit****g about it.

 

That's a good hire. He got a raw deal in Memphis. He's a lot better than Doc, although that's a low bar

 

Why sign a HC when you don't even know what you're getting in return for Giannis?

I mean, Jenkins is an average coach so even if they lose him to other teams, not really a huge deal.

 

defensive superstar calls are real. artest used to get them, and kawhi gets to just grab arms all over the place. smart gets some of this, too, though he also gets called for boxing out since he joined the lakers...

 

Just in time for the Lakers series......

Why wait? The NBA terrorist is going to hold them hostage infinitely. No coach out there who might become available is going to move the needle for him.

 

OKC is gonna have problems if Jalen Williams can’t play. Like I said Hamstring reaggravation that’s a lot. Hes their Scottie Pippen. He does everything plays defense and can shoot score. He’ll try to go but won’t be the same. We’ll go right after him. Lebron go get him. We can actually win this s***.

San Antonio rushing Wemby back not good for them. I’ve seen s*** in this league. I saw in 2001 Kobe and Shaq steamroll Tim Duncan in his prime and San Antonio and sweep them.

the Lakers can do this. They can beat Wemby or anybody in the west.

do not absolutely do not play Luka til next series. Rest Reaves as long as possible.

This might actually open up for Lebron and what a story it will be. If he wins this championship he is the GOAT!!!!! And the more series he wins the closer LeBron will get to it and he’s going all out.

Ayton you win this championship your going to have huge Money buy and island in the Bahamas!!!!

 

Yeah, the Bucks can’t sit around and wait for whatever Tweety Bird inside The Greek’s cranium, tells his lips to utter regarding which team he wants to play for.
I like Dillon Brooks more than I do Giannis rn( I do acknowledge I like him more than most based of his ability to always entertain- whether playing poorly or great).

 

You do realize that OKC is the deepest team in the League, right?
As long as Free Throw Merchant continues to get the lion’s share of Phantom Calls, it won’t matter.

 

I’m not sure why anyone on that list would target Smart or Kennard.

Hornets: have 148m in salary and have to resign Colby, actually only end up with Room after deadline moves

Portland: at 170m without Thybulle and Timelord. Will have the full MLE, here is their roster:

Dame / Scoot
Jrue / Sharpe
Avidja /
Toumani / Grant
Clingan / Hansen

They probably need a wing or a backup big over a guard.

Spurs: at abour 150-155m in salary, so I don’t actually get this situation. If they use their 10-15m in cap space to resign Champagnie, do they then have the room or the MLE? Maybe someone can help me out because the way I understand it is they’d have the Room?

Either way they don’t need guards. If they don’t bring one of Ollynk or Barnes back they need to improve at the PF and I see Rui being a real piece they’d go after with that money:

Fox / Harper
Castle / Vasell
Champagnie / Keldon
Rui / Barnes
Wemby / Kornet

Bucks: are about to blow it up

Boston: they’re at 183m without resigning Vucevic. I think they resign him with the bird rights (10m ish) and have access to the full MLE.

White / Pritchard
Brown / Scheirman
Hauser /
Tatum / Walsh
Queta / Vucevic / Garza

This is the randomest team. I honestly still think they’re going to get found out in the playoffs. They’re using junk parts as backups and making it work. I think they need the best player they can get with the MLE. I still think they could use Rui over Smart. Maybe they’d like a Kennard but they already have Scheirman doing the white shooter thing?

Another option I’ve seen floated around is they go after Turner with their 27m TPE to upgrade their center position. That would put them over the first Apron and they’d only have the TPMLE.

I just don’t see who is outbidding our 9-10 million for either Smart or Kennard. And I’m not going out there and bidding against myself.
