Oh for anyone who wants to save like $40 on a thermaflex hoodie. NBA Store has a 25% off coupon that makes what’s normally $150, $112.49. Now what makes this really good is Dicks will honor the price match. So I was able to get it curbside and they were able to do the price match for me.

what he does on offense is really underrated. I'm sure everyone here has read the screen assist article but this stat is pretty wild.


Gobert is a better player than Paul George

That deal OG seems really low compared to what all sorts of lesser players are getting. Is the final year player option really worth that much?

He's got a player option so it seems like a nice balance of "take some money off the table now and set yourself up for life" and "you're young and can still get 2 more obscene money deals"

I think it's low but he wasn't "worth" that money until last year so its an exchange to cash in and still bet on himself. Its both the Player Option and the fact that they didn't have to do the extension now.

Any idea why the Clippers extended Kennard before he’s even played a game with them?

I've never seen Luke Kennard play but I assumed he turned into a decent rotation fringe starter just by virtue of people who would normally talk all kinds of poo poo about him saying he's not so bad now

Duncan Robinson is getting goofy white dudes paid because someone said "shooter" in a sentence close to their name.

And isn't Robinson himself still on a min deal?

If he leaves, they can't re-sign him. Cap stuff

He's a dribble pass shoot sg secondary ball handler type who shot 40% from three. He's not a defender and he has some health problems

Red Rox posted:

To extend a player on their rookie contract you have to sign the extension before the start of the season, once in season they cannot be extended. So their choice was to either play it out with Kennard on an expiring deal or extend him now. They traded for him so they obviously like him somewhat already, not a surprise they would want to keep him.

e: If they didn't make a deal then Kennard would've been a restricted free agent, so the Clippers wouldn't have lost him necessarily. But maybe some team comes in with an offer they wouldn't want to match, especially if he has a good season on a high profile team that makes a deep playoff run.
