Olshey is going for it. Hood found a great role with the Blazers before getting hurt. Of course I am biased as Rip City is one of my other favorite NBA locales.

Same. I'm excited for them now that Nurkic healthy. I basically decided that I'd always want nice things for Damian Lillard when he tore the Rockets hearts out in '14, and that sentiment only increased when he kickstarted the Thunder's rebuilding process in '19.

Lol, sounds like Woods’s agent got on the horn to Shams real quick after Isola’s tweet.
Probably had Shams on hold, leaked to Isola, got that twitter uproar then leaked to Shams, then went back to teams and said.... yeah MLE isn't cutting it we need 8 figures a year

Pistons signed Jahlil Okafor and gave Mason Plumblee 3/25 after drafting Isaiah Stewart. What are they doing?!? Haven’t seen the Jah money, I’m really curious.

how in the hell do the lakers have the cap room for basically every single player they want? it doesnt make any sense
All that cap room they saved for Kawhi before he spurned them last year, and then was spent on one year deals.

I assume Harrell is taking the full MLE and Rondo is walking

Edit- honestly that's a good deal for Harrell, He gets 19M if he plays poorly again, if he plays well he opts out and gets more.

Fun tidbit: Meyers Leonard, four seasons of 50/40/80% shooting, one more than Larry Bird. How bad is the rest of his game that he can’t get on the court?
It isn’t his game that is bad it’s that it pushes Bam to the 4 and sends Herro or Robinson to the bench. He was depth last year and this year he’s an expiring contract.

Because the NBA salary cap rules are an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, stuffed inside a giant shit sandwich with a side order of stupid absurdity.

I'm done with the NBA offseason. Wake me up Xmas week, and I'll see who is on what roster, and maybe by then, Trump will concede.
