2021 Free Agency

[LoPo]

So they essentially cut salary, lost a 1st, swapped Adams for Valanciunas and swapped Lonzo for Graham.

That doesn’t scream "killing it" to me sorry man. They are mediocre after all of these moves and will continue to be.

I said they have done so well.

In addition, they have a few young guys they have carved out playing time for now.

They cleaned up their cap situation and are one big addition away from having a really good young core of Zion, Ingram, Graham, their young guys and whoever they add.

One thing that is hilarious is that the one guy that isn't getting overpaid this year is "100M" Schroeder. He turned down a 4/84 extension last year thinking he'd get way more in FA- that's almost Conley money. Maaaaan that blew up in his face.

Tyler Bey on a 2 way deal
Otto Porter Jr on our MLE
Justise Winslow on a mimimum
Dewayne Dedmon on a minimum
Ish Smith on a minimum

throw James Ennis in there too.

Please tell me one of these millions of signings used their MLE.

Who’s the target from here? All the big names are gone this off-season and why would anyone want to go play with them next year?

Graham is like 10mil cheaper so they should have the cap space to bring in another helper but yeah, Lonzo is a better player all around.

They are similar. Graham is $38 million less though.

They’re two totally different players lol. Not even close to similar.

The washed up former Laker parade continues. I wonder if Samaki Walker is available.

 

[LoPo]

That’s what I’m saying. This dude acts like we overpaid Conley but is applauding swapping Lonzo for Graham lmao.

Did I say Graham is better than Conley? No.

But yeah, Conley is overpaid. Sure CP3 and Lowry are making more, but they have earned it. They are better players.

We are putting all of our resources into a PG who simply can't stay healthy.

Similar value to a club. They don't play the same

Did I say you said Graham was better than Conley? Lmao you are so weird. Conley is not overpaid. His contact literally might be the biggest steal of the day all around the league.

Lowry has missed a ton of games over the past three seasons too.

 

[just because]

we are over the cap so either we sign what we can or we go without. Literally our options were conley or nobody. I can imagine how much gripping would have gone on if Conley had decided to go somewhere. Happy for the jazz they retained another hot free agent. good job FO.
