40 mill plus for van vleet?? JFC

[keevsnick]

That FVV deal is a three year max deal at 30% of the cap. First year will be nearly 41 million. Rockets still have about 23 million in space i think. They should go after Lopez as a stretch big to provide spacing for all their guys.

How do the lakers have all this money to spend??

Toronto needs a point guard? FINE! You can have Brogdon for OG. We’ll throw in a second, too.

Lots of big contracts for role players.

So much for people thinking the new CBA killed the NBA middle class

WHOA

Fred VanVleet to the Rockets for 3/130M

Begging for Toronto to negotiate a sign-and-trade.

Fred VanVleet to the Rockets for 3/130M

Dang. Hehe. Wow. The interest this morning from the Raptors must have gotten Houston to up their offer.

Would you really rather pay VanVleet $130mil than Harden?

This is exactly what I’ve been wondering.

What happens to Jaylen Green? He’ll start as the 2 guard?

Just wait until they give Reaves 100M+ too. Insane

Lakers signed Cam Reddish. Presumably to backup T Prince and Hachimura as a 3rd string forward.

They got Gabe Vincent and Taurean so far right?

Herb Jones 4yrs $54mil to stay with Pelicans.

What is that? $15mil less $1.5mil. $13.5mil per year. Good price for NOP. Better value than what a lot of other teams are getting for worse role players.

Max Strus getting more money than Herb is impossible for me to comprehend!

G Will would be interesting as a floor spacing big for Houston. I'd worry that B Lopez would hurt Sengun's development. G Will can take a bench role behind Jabari Smith Jr. Or even start alongside him.

VanVleet for that money is astonishing. Good for him.
