NBA 2025 Offseason Thread - where mediocrity lives. Now with more NBA Draft

[Son of Skeletor]

I think across the board sneaky offers. If you can get Kuminga on say 4/80 it’s worth a gamble

But what if all three teams decline to match?

Then you're stuck paying Porter, Giddey, Kuminga, Grimes & Claxton. Hello 36 wins, and the #11 pick in the 2026 draft.

Are we really doing this shit again?

 

[fidstar]

Is that the best the Jazz can do?

 

[Nicho50]

Norman Powell to Miami.

 

[peternorth]

Kyle Anderson to Utah

On face value Powell for Love and Slo-Mo is a win but it's not really going to make us any better in terms of progressing in play-offs.

it seems the sumer leage telecast is being recorded from a nokia 3210

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Murmurs are Clippers traded Norman Powell knowing Bradley Beal will sign once his buyout is done

Harden
Beal
Kawhi
Collins
Zubac

Lopez, Jones, Dunn, Batum, Bogdanovic

Looks pretty decent I think. Not sure its winning but its atleast in the picture

Anyone else miss the days of summer league uniforms just being the reversible training singlets? Too clean cut now.

The Jazz held on to Sexton/Collins/Clarkson for 2/3 years, only to turn them into Nurkic, Kyle Anderson & dead money?

That's depressing.

Almost as if Danny Ainge is overrated?

Utah hired his son now, everything will be OK.

Was this situation with Lillard the first ever in the nba? As in getting waived and having his salary paid off in yearly instalments? Reminds me of what Collingwood did to Treloar and Grundy

Happened a few times, it was introduced around 15 years ago I think.

Think the most recent one would be Luol Deng?

Cavs stretched Ricky Rubio last year, $1.275m split over 3 years. Strong stretch play.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Here's something I can't be bothered looking up: do the players getting stretched receive their money as they otherwise would have or do they receive it over however long their contract gets stretched out?

ie is Dame gonna get his 100 mill over the next two years or 5?

I believe the actual wage is stretched as well, but I assume they could negotiate getting it all faster at a discount like they sometimes do for non-stretch waives.

OKC looking like they've lost one of their Championship winning players
