2020 Free Agency Thread

Wanted Spellman since draft. A big guy who defends and shoots threes. Imagine making the deal for him, him being a better fit than Favors (I know this is blasphemy to some), not having to unload assets and not having to pay Favors $30M. The FO has one goal in mind for the offseason and wouldn’t be deterred.

Welp, that's it @Handlogten's Heros. I'm out.

It was your guy too! In fairness we were doing it for zero returning dollars. Also in fairness Minny never called us to tell us they were interested.

Spellman makes Favors irrelevant.

I hope a second year in the system will help Conley have a better start to the season than last year.

Since there’s this narrative of “Snyder’s teams always start slow,” and since there’s not a long offseason and the only person we’re integrating has already been here, we’ll probably be where we are in general, and the “oh wow, normally we start slow but we’re already looking good!” posts, coupled with “this is why you should never doubt the FO” will become unbearable.

Don
Royce
Joe
Bojan
Rudy

This was the Jazz's best lineup last year and one of the (if not the) best lineups in the league. If it ain't starting, it damn well better be finishing.

Negative on both... can’t play Royce instead of Mike effing Conley... it’s Mike effing Conley.

It's a dark day when the Knicks organization makes yours look amateur.

I think he’s immature or not committed... I thinks he’s out of the league unless he shows major improvement... kinda the vibe I get.

The strongest qualitative/subjective argument there is. Or at least one of the most repeated. That's gotta mean something... right?

Or they’ve hired off some of our guys who know exactly how to exploit our weaknesses.

IDK. Numbers look pretty good, but that's all I got besides being high on him during the draft.
