    2016 Off-Season Thread

    Now every team can do what the Thunder did last year, and pay a 6th man level talent a max contract from like 6 years ago. These new contracts are MLB-level crazy. It's a brave new world.

    1) Rim protection is massively overrated. The difference between a good rim protector and a bad one is less than a FG a game 2) League average for blocks last year was 406 blocks for the season. Orlando had 417.

    Political Foolishness, or Road to the White House 2016

    It's always weird to me to see a gropu of people who waffle on whether or not they're going to vote in an election complain about losing out to the political will of people who vote consistently.

    That DeAndre was named 1st team stupidly doesn't make Ibaka better than he is. A trade of Oladipo for Ibaka is a step-sideways, trading one problem for a different one. Adding in that we gave up cap flexibility and a draft pick to do it makes this a bad trade on value.

    Weird thing I just realized: From October - December, Victor Oladipo went 28 for 104 from 3. That's 26.9%. Since January 1st, Victor Oladipo has gone 60 for 147. That's 40.8%. There's a reason his TS% the first 3 months of the year were absolutely putrid, and have been above or way above league average in every month of 2016 so far.

    Unsurprisingly, after last night Victor's splits for both March and for post-AS Break are really, really good.

    Cavaliers @ Magic

    I'm not sure how Victor is still standing. Dude looks completely exhausted.

    32/4/3/3/2 halfway through the third. That's crazy.

    Mavs @ Magic - 7 pm tip off!

    TOBIAS HARRIS WAS HOLDING US BACK. #stupidearlyreaction

    Mavs @ Magic - 7 pm tip off!

    This defense is stellar so far.

    I'd argue it's more that you've made almost 100 posts in the last 24 hours, and seemingly all of them were in this thread about how much you don't like the trade. You're entitled to have any opinion you want. I don't like the trade either. I even said so! Then I stopped talking, rather than trying to talk over everyone else who liked the trade.

    Or let Fournier leave and have a max and a near-max.

    That said, man, the FO must think they're getting absolutely nothing from Watson this year.

    I think this might finally be the season wear watching this team gives me a stroke.

    Are you under the impression that people went out and bought Spud Webb, Harold Miner, or Cedric Ceballos jerseys after they won their dunk contests?

    Though that would explain why their defense is so easy to penetrate. Thank you for coming out tonight, everyone! Don't forget to tip your waitresses!

    Oladipo's is even more baffling.
  19. Secretly Space Jesus

    The Official 2015-2016 Regular Season Thread

    It's not that interesting or complicated really; I think Oladipo and Payton are a less than ideal fit together, with Oladipo having more long term value, and that Fournier is going to be to expensive to justify keeping him, so get something for him now.

    I'm sure if I were running the team, I'd be pretty paralyzed by indecision during trade talks. And I pay zero attention to college basketball, so I have no idea how I'd draft. Fournier and Payton would both be gone for sure.

    Almost as much as I'd enjoy having traded every possible 1st round pick we could to get that team.

    No, but the comment I wrote that you responded to DID. It doesn't make much sense to respond to a comment of "We shouldn't do X" with "Yeah, we should", and then get weirdly defensive when people accuse of being in favor of doing X. I'm not trying to be dismissive here, but that's literally how sequential words work.

    The Kings are run like the Magic would be run if the fans on RealGm were running the team, and every decision required a 2/3 majority vote.

    Whose morale? Yours? Are you arguing the Magic should potentially mortgage their future on a short-term trade to make you feel better?

    Also, there's not much reason to make a bad trade to try to squeeze into an 8th seed that few people expected us to compete for before the season started.
