Some interesting FA pieces that could sign for contenders for the MLE or whatever, maybe taking a discount: Millsap Gallinari Wes Matthews Davis Bertans Serge Ibaka Derrick Favors Jerami Grant The market really sucks so who knows what some of these guys will do. Some of them will have a hard time getting their true value.

MourningView posted:Bertans is probably the best one other than FVV to be actually available and he is get an insane contract from someone. Yeah, I kind of imagine FVV is just gonna get a deal from someone with cap space or he'll re-sign in Toronto as the heir apparent to Lowry.

leftist heap posted:It doesn't seem like any of these guys outside of maybe Matthews would sign for MLE money or maybe Millsap. Maybe I'm misreading this offseason. This is the 2020 cap space and I think teams wanna try to keep their options open for 2021: 1 ATL $44.3M 2 NYK $42.4M 3 DET $30.0M 4 MIA $21.9M 5 CHA $19.4M 6 PHX $18.9M

Lewis Skolnick posted:Davis is ranked way too high. He's lucky he's on Lebron's team. And what did Kawhi do to deserve being ranked above Harden? The thing about Davis is that he's a super-star level player that fits perfectly with other superstar level players because he's both like a top 5 defender (maybe #1) and top 5 off ball guy (probably #2? behind Steph). And if the mid-range he showed in the playoffs is real, you can actually lean on him to give you some self-created offense reliably. He's also versatile enough that you can basically play whatever defense you want, you can pair him with a traditional big man or play him alone at the 5. Yeah, I mean, he's very very good from that standpoint.

Good Dipo would be pretty good on a lot of teams, I'd like him on the Mavs offtopic, but man do I miss free play-index on basketball reference

Seems weird to be worried about parity right now when it feels like there's 8 teams that have a decent shot at the title next year (4 Semi-Finalists + Clips, Bucks, Nets, Warriors). The Mavs also feel like they're potentially one move away.

Spacebump posted:That move is actually just the direction Porzingis' knee goes. ha I feel like the team is goofy enough that it can get hot and take out anyone in a 7 game series but the defense is just pitiful.

Chairchucker posted:I spent way too long trying to figure out which was the Phoenix Suns starting 5 and I still have no idea. They're the bottom middle. See how it's split into Western and Eastern conferences? They're the bottom right of the Western conference. Booker top left, Ayton Top Right, Baynes Bottom Right, I assume.. Rubio in the middle?

Lebron/Wade/Bosh might have had more punch but it feels like these 3 are just so static offensively that it's a crazier fit.

if Giannis is signing, then that changes a lot of plans for 2021 and I wonder if you see Dallas, Miami, and Toronto make significant moves.

come 2021 the Sixers will still have Tobi/Joel/Ben on about ~100m, plus J-Rich has a player option, and I assume they would pick up the Shake and Tisse options. All told that's ~120m.
