    Man. If we paid luxury tax just to finish put of the playoffs.... that would say more about the modern NBA than anything.

    What extension. He just signed one last summer. He's under contract through 2017-18 with a player option for 2018-19, which he will no doubt opt out of as he'll be eligible for the super duper max.

    lol for a one year rental. No thanks.

    There's giving up enough, and giving up too much. Why the picks? He leaves, and we're back to where we started, now without picks!

    Jesus Christ. So we could end up the 8th seed again......only to be eliminated in the first goddamn round.

    Sigh!

    I suppose technically it's a new contract.

    It'll be cute when people say Olshey didnt do shit this year to get George or some other big name star.

    It's because we don't have shit people want, and we ain't winning shit unless it's a fluke and GSW has injured players.

    Lets mortgage the future on the hopes of others' injuries! That's smart business.

    Last I checked OKC finished ahead of us in the standings - them getting better doesn't knock us down the standings at all. Ditto HOU. LAC got worse, and they were ahead of us in the standings.

    If they have cap space I think they can tear up the contract and start over. Or something like that. Seems weird but analysts seem to think they are allowed to do this.

    I have us between 5th an 7th... still iffy, but I'd probably lean more towards 6th or 7th based purely on paper. Id put minny ahead of us.

    I hope everyone realize that Oladipo is going to make MORE than Crabbe the next 3 years. WHAT IN THE FUCK Pritch!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    That seems reasonable to me if the Jazz lose Hayward and Hill. If the Timberwolves add Teague or Hill (or Lowry), I think they could jump ahead of the Blazers.
