    Sadly "the kids" have taken to calling me "Old School". I like to think it's because of my old fashioned game (lots of hook shots - no need to jump).

    Back in the day my football (AKA "soccer") nickname was "Crusher". I did like a good crunching sliding tackle.

    sean marks lowballing cam thomas all summer and them dumping claxton for ant simons who he'd have to extend would be some wild shit.

    Is Cam really being lowballed? Or did teams finally get smart about not overpaying empty stat 20ppg scorers.

    (i don't think it's a lowball, but that's my personal opinion on the so-called chucker/no d archetype)

    but i'm assuming ant simons and his team would feel lowballed with a 28m/2, TO on the 2nd year offer.

    It will be interesting what contract offers Simons gets next summer. No teams want Simons on his current 25m+ deal as evident by the Celtics inability to dump him.

    I'm guessing Simons will be getting a paycut, and the full MLE or less. MLE is that 14m you mention.

    Had all sorts of posters here arguing with me about how Ayton was worth $20m or more. He signed for 8m.
