NBA Off-season thread: Duncan and Garnett retire

[RChildress107]

Draymond = 16
Klay = 18
Durant = 35
Curry Cap hold = 18
8 roster spots = 8 mil
Total = 95 and Cap should be around 109. So they'll have $14 mil to play with (or use to resign Iggy, etc.)

All of that is likely to be irrelevant as Steph and Durant's contracts are going to be signed under a new CBA. Decent chance that the limit on max contracts goes way up or disappears all together. Cap could also go up even more if players are able to get a more favorable split.

I know Michelle Roberts and CP3 and Lebron want the max to go away, but wouldn't 90% of the union not want that?

Players never win those lockouts, owners aren't going to give up more BRI. It will be interesting to see what rule changes the owners propose because they'll be pissy about the GSW team. Last time when they were pissy about the Heat they created the super punitive luxury tax.

They had to sign KD cause they knew Steph is coming home next season

 

[RJKarl]

Sounds like the Mavs are full steam ahead with Barnes and in talks to trade for Bogut.

They can be the Warriors B League Team. That should be really successful.

@WojVerticalNBA
Sources on @TheVertical: One of the NBA's icon's -- San Antonio's Tim Duncan -- leaning strongly toward retirement.

Dubs need to bring on Christian Laettner in some capacity now.

@DavidPurdum
Odds to win 2017 NBA Championship: Golden St -150 / The Field +130 @LVSuperBook

I'd take the field

 

[RJKarl]

The overall odds are:

Warriors 4/5
Cavs 3
Spurs 8

This is awesome.

Probably not but they could get buy in by raising the minimum salary

what if this is all like palma said and KD is just trying to hurt the warriors. He has until July 7th to change his mind just like DeAndre did last year! They already renounced Barnes and Ezeli and on the cusp of trading Bogut. KD would become my favorite player ever.

The best way to do it would just be to tweet a picture of Draymond kicking Steven Adams in the nuts

Thunder going to ask Westbrook for extension. If he says no, wants to test FA next summer, they'll field trade offers hoping not to lose him for nothing.
