2020 Free Agency Thread

Yeah this is funny. That was my first thought, then I saw everyone on twitter freaking out. How many firsts did Minnesota lose?

It was a lot... I think 2 or 3... wonder what the Minny KG era looks like without that punishment.

To be fair Minny was for cap circumvention... so it was different. I wonder how many minimum deals Udonis Haslem has to sign before Miami gets hit with a cap circumvention investigation.

Frank Jackson is now available. Time to release Yogi and bring him in as TW

I wonder if the Jazz might be interested. Went to high school in Utah, a Dookie, McDonald's All American the same year as Dok, Bradley, and Kuzma. Has scored 25 in an Association game. Drafted the same year as Spida.

Damn. I liked him since pre-draft. Seemed very Austin Rivers to me. Except not a douche.

And if he's at all amenable to a two-way, I'd certainly waive Brantley.

 

[jom2003]

not too surprised that OKC waived Jackson. they already have too many projects on the team whereas we basically have none.

as a TW who will see no minutes, Jackson is a far better choice than yogi ferrell(age, physical profile, etc). we need to start thinking about our PG situation post Conley, and bringing in someone like jackson and see how he develops would be a nice move.the kid's still young and there's zero risk.

 

[jom2003]

and here's from a week ago. there's no reason why he can't at least become a serviceable backup in this league. thunder apparently wanna clear room for maledon now let's see who could take advantage and get him on a bargain deal.

Someone will pick up Jackson.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Slap on the hand... still felt they had to do something. Stern would have taken away 3 firsts... Silver is a softy.

All this tells me is that DL needs to get out there and tamper. He'll be aroused by the punishment.

Something tells me the league wouldn’t hesitate to make an example out of the jazz.

Someone will pick up Jackson.

Good, let them, we don’t need another guard.

Yogi was released two days ago. (Not that this would have any bearing on the Jazz's two-way players -- those are Brantley and Forrest, of course.)

I'm sorry Frank Jackson
I

for
real
You can make it on our roster now
We can pay a half a million bucks

The Suns claimed Frank the Tank from waivers which is weird is they had no money to sign him and let the Kings sign him. Michael Stockton is pro exposure's player of the week for his play in a French League.
