Someone will want their cap space Yossi Gozlan: The Jazz decreased payroll enough where they could pivot to becoming a cap space team. They can have $22 million in cap space if they waive KJ Martin and Jaden Springer’s non-guaranteed salaries. This would give them more spending as well as the $8.8 million room mid-level. – via Bluesky

I’m not 100% sure on the Suns situation but I want to say it would be to get them out of second apron and luxury tax penalties. It’s not easy to shed salary once you are in the second apron.

Michael Scotto: Sources: The Los Angeles Clippers were reluctant to give Norman Powell a long-term extension as he enters the final year of his deal ($20.48 million) with Kawhi Leonard and James Harden signed through the 2026-27 season. The Clippers are prioritizing significant cap space in 2027 – via Twitter MikeAScotto

Heat should be in mix in wide open east. Clipps look good. Comes down to kawai. Good luck with that

Booker wont want a rebuild

Lol, it received criticism from OUR side. Your side was perfectly fine endorsing all that depravity. I was banned during the time but I'm willing to bet none of the ISH wokies like yourself made any threads about it like this one. Look at the woke tranny flag that's hanging from the WH in the background. That's okay with you?

If we assume they are going into rebuilding mode the $20 million in dead cap doesn't matter much. If they are actually trying to win then yeah that would be a problem.

Yeah that’s what they have him doing. Yeah his role will be completely different with Maxey embiid and George

I saw him do it at random times at Baylor, then he would go back to passive. Maybe he is being told to be aggressive in SL.

Be more of a catch and shoot defender if they are healthy i imagine

Lost year for dame. Not much choice for bucks if they want to keep giannis happy

Love expiring so flip or buyout i imagine. Anderson 1 more year on deal after next season

:no:

Id guess love wont play for jazz. Anderson might til trade deadline anyway

Great pick and roll/pop partner for harden. 3 level scorer. Double/double machine. Not great defender

It was a fun game. Energy for all 90 minutes.

Shams Charania: BREAKING: The Clippers, Jazz and Heat have agreed to a trade that sends Norman Powell to Miami, John Collins to Los Angeles, and Kevin Love, Kyle Anderson and a 2027 Clippers second-round pick to the Jazz, sources tell ESPN.

Op is literally a catty gay man. :lol

but it's not increasing that much right? and i think suns are going to take a $20m/yr cap hit for the next 5 years. horrible decision all around. i'd even risk getting a pick frozen as a penalty over this bs.

Bucks did the same thing with Dame. I would guess the projected increase in the salary cap played a role in the decisions.

it would make more sense to ride it out for 2 years or get rid of other players...stretching the contract for the next 5 years doesn't make sense.

He wanted to showcase he can score off the dribble. Did a good job at that.

big series starts today --- dodgers come to milwaukee

Trying to win games on a good team in college. They want him to carry gleaguers in summer league

lmao ... sure dump fvck

Saw that. This situation in Phoenix is as bad as it gets. I was gonna make a thread about toxic players on toxic contracts in history and see if anyone could come up with examples of a team getting ****ed over so badly by a player and their contract.

Hard to believe VJ put up 27 shots in a game. He only averaged 11.5 shots per game at Baylor.

Trading for Beal forced them to blow up their team.

Here is a tweet from Mamdani from 2020 where he gives the middle finger to a Columbus statue and says "Take it down". https://x.com/ZohranKMamdani/status/1273410176003997697 So let's see. He's a communist, a wokie, a tranny apologist, and he resents the founding of America. Great job democrats.

Bro Lauri is way better than MPJ. He actually has a bag where as porter Jr has absolutely none. Hes a catch and shoot 3pt shooter who often goes cold when it counts. Role player with no upside.
