Did not see this coming
Fuck me
There it is
Thank god.
Bomb. Damn
Glad this can come to an end. Good for him
Good deal for him.
2 year 60 mil is overpay.
no more pacers deal, hopefully we can still make a Trent jr deal happen
He robs them blind and I don’t have to hear this sub cry for a trade for him anymore. Everyone wins 🙏
30 million a year? Sheesh. Dude got paid.
Hopefully this means we can refocus on getting Luka
We have officially moved from begging the Pacers for a trade to begging the Raptors for a trade
BASED for ending the hopes of these delusional fans in this sub.
Good. Now y’all can end the obsession y’all have with him
Fuck
Are we still trading 1 pick for Myles and Buddy 😄
Give me poeltl
Good deal for Indy. It’s $60 spread over 3 years, and it doesn’t affect future cap space since they’re eating $17 of it in the current season.
Gotta be honest, I didn’t realize mid season raises could be allowed like this, and especially of this size.
Finally we can stop talking about this. People will still blame Rob for this.
Trent Jr and a buyout backup center pls
Shame as he would have been perfect next to AD.
I guess Bron 4 and AD 5 is the way forward so try find some trades for new starting guards and a small forward
So glad this is over.
Good. We can stop pretending he is Shaq
Perfect now time to get GTJ
TAKE WESTBROOK….PLEASE….SOMEBODY!!!!!
The turner ship had already sailed good for him he’s a beast
Finally, we can let this go. Go get Gary Trent Jr!
I’m glad at least he wasn’t traded for cheap to another team.
Fuck pelinka
This might actually make a Turner/Hield deal for Westbrook more feasible knowing that Turner:
1. is no longer a 6 month rental
2. is signed long term at a reasonable extension (20.0 and 19.9 mil for 2 more years)
3. has little luxury tax implications this season because Westbrook already earns so much (difference in salary between Turner/Hield and WB is a convenient Lonnie sized hole)
All this means is that we have 2 more years of trade talk about him. I like him a lot, don’t get me wrong; but it’s annoying. Would’ve loved if he didn’t sign and we can try to get him in the off-season but it is what it is.
