He's been wrong about the Suns a lot lately, I'd like to think he's being fed BS. On the other hand the Suns turning their nose up at an All-Star who is Devin Booker's best friend who plays a position of dire need also sounds really on-brand so it's hard to say.

Gotta sign a bunch of over the hill vets for the Suns big playoff push

SHoutout to all of the Lakers fans around the internet who spent the last few days insisting that Woj just had an agenda against th eLakers and the raw genius of Rob Pelinka would never gently caress up something so basic as keeping his capspace open and ensuring the timing of the trade made sense

There is this thing popping up on various Lakers boards that even most of the nuttier places aren't taking very serious but it's basically 3,000 words of a guy claiming to work for AEG and explaining the vast conspiracy happening behind the scenes of the NBA. Like according to this the league forced the AD trade, and they were the ones who dictated the terms, because they want the Lakers to be in the second round for ratings reasons, but they don't actually want them to win a title, but the machinations of the masterful stadium owners may exceed the NBA's wishes as apparently aeg has an ownership stake in New Balance (I have no idea if this is true or not) and have specifically structured the New Balance deal to basically force Uncle Dennis and his agent to have no financial choice but try and push Kawhi to abandon his teammates who he loves [rick note: obviously written this way to make Kawhi seem like a good person even if he leaves Toronto] and go to LA, and probably the Lakers since they already have secured endorsements in other AEG subsidiaries and also Kawhi does not want to be considered a Microsoft guy which would happen if he was with the Clippers.

I didn't have the energy to read the whole thing but every part I skimmed into was like the wildest poo poo, whoever wrote it should be writing for a Japanese sports anime.

Its like QAnon for Lakers fans

28m aav for a guy who’s definitely on the downturn is wild

I'm trying to rationalize it under the new cap, but a 14 mil contract a decade ago would have been a crazy overpay.

Horford is 33, he should be thinking about ring chasing, not getting giant contracts.

Oh god, it's the Knicks, isn't it. It seems like a classic Knicks signing

This seems easy to say when you're not the one getting offered the money.

Horford is still really good and valuable, especially once the playoffs start. I wouldn't feel bad offering him a big deal even if it might kinda suck in the last year.

No, I mean teams shouldn't be offering contracts this big to him. Guys normally go ring chasing at this point in their careers because teams aren't willing to pay up like this

lots of teams have lots of money and suddenly kd and klay aren't around next year. also, next year's FA class isn't that great - 33 year old Horford would be one of the better ones anyway. So if you don't spend it on someone like him, next year isn't too good either

Next year's FA class highlights:

Player Options:
Drummond
Otto Porter
Demar Derozan
Evan Fournier

UFA:
Whiteside
Jabari Parker
Ibaka

VanVleet
Andre Roberson
