Season starts tonight!

New season = new thread.

Get your predictions in and what not. Some of you have done that already in the off-season thread.

Tonights predictions:

Wizards at Cavs
Celtics at Heat
Mavs at Lakers

Re: #lolKings

This year was a bit different though considering the two biggest trades happened before the deadline in Harden, Gay.

LOL at Atlanta not trading Smith. Consider the Celtics the favorites to sign him in the offseason.

They did make one move though. Traded Anthony Morrow to the Mavs for Dahntay Jones.

Re: #lolKings

Correction: Those are two separate deals we are reporting. Charlotte-Orlando part is its own trade. My fault.

YOU BETTER FUCKING APOLOGIZE WOJ.

Re: #lolKings

I would definitely take Barbosa for Crawford over Fab Melo and a first. Why the hell wouldn't you?

Fab Melo has a guaranteed contract next year. The dude sucks. The first rounder is another guaranteed contract as well with a pick in the teens in a weak draft. Why would you want 2 guaranteed likely awful to mediocre players instead of an open roster spot and a bit of extra money?

Re: #lolKings

How is Washington a loser? I don't get it. They traded a guy they didn't have a plan for for cap space. They took on no bad contracts or any contracts for that matter.

EDIT: They wouldn't draft another SG if they drafted Thompson is what I'm getting at...

Re: #lolKings

They traded their best bench player for a guy that will never play for them and one of the worst players in the NBA.

They traded for two minimum contracts JM, let's not act like they cleared a massive amount of cap space that they'll be able to sign a star or any good player with. They cleared enough cap space to sign a guy like Roger Mason. Congratulations Washington.

Re: #lolKings

Also, Washington should be tanking HARD next year. This helps with that.
They've been tanking for 5 years. Enough is enough.

Re: #lolKings

The 17th pick > A free roster space when the only people that want to play in Washington are the caliber of A.J. Price, Roger Mason and Cartier Martin.

The Wizards don't need cap space to tank. You just have to be bad. And the Wizards probably won't be bad next year due to Wall being there a full season, improvements from a Beal plus potentially drafting Shabazz or Nerlens.

Re: #lolKings

Notorious, Washington does not have a shot in hell at drafting anyone next year that will take them to any new level at 17. They need to TANK HARD. Not take on more guaranteed contracts. Jordan Crawford is not going to take them to any level above where there at either, so you ship him out. Beal's their SG, go with it. They can stream 10 dayers all year with that roster spot and it'll be a better decision for the franchise. They already have 67 million invested next year, they don't need to take on a bad contract...

Re: #lolKings

And the Wizards also don't have a shot at hell at signing any good player with that luxurious cap space and open roster spot.

Crawford isn't even a bad contract, he's on a rookie contract. He barely makes over 1 mil a year. And it's not like you can't tank with guaranteed contracts on your roster. Look at the Wizards now.

WWF, you still have VUCEVIC.

Re: #lolKings

He earns 2.2 million next year iirc.

They don't have to sign anyone, why pay Melo and some shitty draft pick next year when you don't have to? Pointless.
