    Javante Green is my new favorite non-7"6 Celtic.

    I’m betting on Westbrook to the Magic now, for no reason, with Markelle Shai and Mo Bamba being the promising young core for the Thunder that they screw up again.

    I mean we signed shabazz Napier, but would much prefer tyus over that. But I understand also with our cap situation they didn’t want to match.

    or they'll trade DLo to the Knicks for a bunch of unprotected picks, Knox, Barrett and Frankie. Then they'll get the no.1 pick and be unstoppable again.

    I think Tacko Fall made the team. The Celtics just waived Yabusele, who was considered a roster lock. Opens up a space for Tacko.

    it looks like the Heat, Knicks, Lakers, Warriors, and Clippers will have space for at least a max player in 2021. Gonna be a crazy free agent year just like this year.
     
  17. The incentives in Kyries deal is fucking nuts lmao

    Irving would earn $125,000 apiece if:

    He appears in at least 70 regular-season games.

    He appears in at least 60 regular-season games and averages fewer than 2.4 turnovers per game. Irving has averaged 2.6 turnovers per game over his career, and between 2.3 and 2.7 in each of his last six seasons.

    He appears in at least 60 regular-season games and attempts at least 4.6 free throws per game. Irving has averaged 4.4 free throws per game for his career, and has fallen below the 4.6 mark in each of his last two seasons.

    He shoots 88.5 percent or better from the foul line in the regular-season. Irving is a career 87.5 percent free throw shooter. He has cracked the 88.5 percent mark in three of his eight career seasons.

    makes at least 2.8 3-pointers per game in the regular-season. Irving has accomplished that just once in eight seasons. He has averaged 2.1 made 3s per game over his career.

    He commits fewer than 2.1 fouls per game in the regular-season. His career average: 2.2.

    Nets score at least 114 points per 100 possessions in the regular-season with Irving on the floor. Only two teams -- Golden State and Houston -- topped that mark last season, per NBA.com, though teams generally score more efficiently with their best offensive players on the floor.

    The Nets allow 106 or fewer points per 100 possessions in the regular season with Irving on the floor. Only three teams averaged 106 or fewer points allowed per 100 possessions in the regular-season, per NBA.com.

    The same eight incentives repeat, at slightly higher dollar increments, in every season of Irving's deal, per contract data.


    Durant unlocks a $1 million bonus -- raising his salary to the maximum -- if any one of the following occur:

    The Nets make the playoffs.

    The Nets win 43 or more games.

    Durant plays in at least 50 regular-season games.

    Durant makes the All-Star team

    How do you not make an incentive "doesn't say some dumb ass shit like the earth is flat."

    Stoked this is finally up,
    Last thing I worked on before leaving Nike was designing this athlete hub page for Giannis telling his story from Greece -> signature athlete. The web author folks messed up the type faces but oh well lol still turned out pretty cool
    (desktop for full video experience cause Nike's web platform sucks)

    From the beginning it made absolute 100% sense for Kawhi to sign a 2+1 deal considering once he hits 10 years in the league he can get an even larger max. Any agent who would have done anything else than that should be fired.
