Re: Free Agency Predictions
I don't know where guys will end up but think there will be a lot more movement then you guys are predicting. Some obvious stays (KD, Klay) but wouldn't be surprised if Kawhi, Butler, Kemba all moved.

Re: Free Agency Predictions
I like the idea of a Tobias/Kyrie combo.... have a hard time seeing D'Angelo in the mix with Kyrie there

Re: Free Agency Predictions
If they deal away Spencer Dinwiddie and don't take any meaningful salary back in return they do actually.
They'd be basically capped out though without doing extensions for Caris Levert and Jarrett Allen.
Regardless though, I think a Kyrie Irving + Tobias Harris combo is the most likely offseason result for the Nets.

Re: Free Agency Predictions
Where do you think he ends up? Do you think he takes the best contract offer (in his eyes) or do you think he goes to a contender for a little less than he'd like?

PG: Lonzo Ball / Ray McCallum
SG: Jabari Brown / E’Twaun Moore / Josh Richardson
SF: Jabari Parker / Kevin Hervey / Jerami Grant
PF: Adreian Payne / Moritz Wagner

Re: Free Agency Predictions
This is the second most puzzling one for me so far (1st being Harrison Barnes declining that $25M option wtf?) Which team is a 33-year Horford even worth 3-4 years at $25M to? That could become a bad contract quick. Or is the situation in Boston so toxic that he doesn't mind leaving major cash on the table just to get out of there? It makes zero sense to me.

Re: Free Agency Predictions
I think there is still a chance he still ends up in Boston but I could see Dallas, LAkers, and Kings as contenders

Re: Free Agency Predictions
I read that the Celtics think he already knows where he's going if he was willing to decline a $30m option then tell them he's leaving. So he must know he's getting something good.BizGilwalker wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 4:11 am This is the second most puzzling one for me so far (1st being Harrison Barnes declining that $25M option wtf?)

Could see Brooklyn (if they lose out on KD), Dallas, Sacramento and maybe even the Lakers as potential spots for him.

Re: Free Agency Predictions
Yeah the Horford to Boston is already a loss for most of us. All reports say they won't resume talks again so hes all but gone.
