2024-2025 NBA thread: who wants to buy a Duck Boat?!?!

[riser4]

Reigning champion Celtic's D White 'bought' a duck boat. Can he buy another one in 2025??? Will he have to sell it???

[Danno]

I want D White to buy another duck boat.

Are Kornet and Tillman going to wear Celtics Green again?

[Danno]

that depends. are they willing to play for the vet minimum?

[EWG]

Congrats Cs.

Go Nuggs. Or more specifically, go Murray’s health.

[Danno]

Dejounte Murray to the Pelicans.

I love this time of year in the NBA.

They need Tillman as long as they have KP and Big Al. They need to develop him. And that's the issue. They have amassed so much talent that at some point they can't afford it, so some of the talent will leave. Unless they can win a whole bunch of rings like the Warriors. That gets people to stay. But not necessarily a 25 year old "vet"?

Celtics will pay XT to stay so long as he is fine with playing time and the city. Playing time or family considerations may have him looking at other options.

Right, but the issue is luxury tax, right? Unless he's making vet minimum which doesn't count towards cap, right? So how much including tax are they willing to pay?

That was a great trade for New Orleans. Feels like Atlanta sold low on Murray.

[Danno]

I agree.

The only salary that doesn’t count towards the cap is that of second rounders signed to an NBA contract. Tillman will receive more than the minimum. Not sure if Kornet will.

[TahoeJ]

Yeah, more weirdness with the new CBA. High second round picks may actually have more value than late first rounders - at least for certain teams.

Y'all better watch out for the Zers next year. You might trip over them on your way to the dump.

Wait ..... she's a hawt Mormon?? He never had a chance.

[TahoeJ]

Paul George opts out. Honestly I’m not sure what the hell the Clippers are doing at this point. Just give him the 4th year. So, things could be interesting in Philly.

[Hood26]

Clickbait. I was hoping he bought a duck boat. Not a Duck Boat.

Damn I was hoping he and the guys were going to get some fall gunning in.

I fail to see why this should have tanked his draft. It's the NBA. However, he's gonna be a helluva bargain when he outperforms his draft spot.

Soaking and poopenhausen.

The whole soaking thing is hilarious... mormon culture is so strange. If you want to fuck, just fuck, and cut the shit.

Today and/or early tomorrow should be interesting... will there be any bombshells or is the CBA just too restrictive now?

[cinnepa]

PG was the best option for the 6ers...hopefully stays healthy enough. Much better than tobias as well. Good 3rd option behind embiid/maxey

Right up until someone gets pregnant and or gets an STI.
