    Miami might sweep Boston. I mean what is going on. I'm sure there were many Celtic fans mocking the Bucks losing to the Heat in 5, so there's that.

    Losing to Miami isn't looking nearly as embarrassing as it looked like weeks ago. Even Boston can't solve them.

    Does Jimmy Butler just kind of sandbag the entire regular season?
  4. adambr2
    Miami just gonna roll all the way to the NBA Finals or...?

    1-5 against the Rockies and Tigers. Not going to be competing for any divisions winning 16% of your games against the worst teams in the league.

    So I guess the only real difference here is that if Love is the guy, he gets an additional 2.3M in 2024 while they presumably work out an extension, and if he blows so massively that they have to move on after 2023, they save about 6.7M versus if they had just picked up the option. Personally if you're confident in the guy I don't know why you don't just pick up the option rather than hedge your bet like this. If they were going to go this route I would have rather giving him a little bigger signing bonus and tried to secure an extra year of control in '25.

    The reason that the "consensus" was that Yelich signed a team friendly deal is that the part of this that always gets overlooked is that Yelich signed his massive extension when he still had 3 years remaining on his contract (and was coming off a major injury). People look at these contracts and compare them to similar players who get deals in free agency and it's just absolutely an apples and oranges comparison. Free agents have all the leverage. Could Yelich have bet on himself, played out his last 3 years with us on his old contract, and gotten a much more massive payday if he continued to play at an MVP level? Sure, hypothetically, but in reality he would have lost that bet and probably well over 100 million in the process.

    It wasn't all that team friendly at the time despite what the consensus was and it's obviously an albatross now. He might have liked it or like it here but the main reason he took the deal was he likes money. Most people do, so I certainly don't blame him for that.

    I haven't heard/seen any extension talk on Love. Any links to this? I'd just be curious. An extension right now doesn't make much sense to me. Would think the Packers would want to see what they have first before committing. Maybe a 2 year extension after this year like you suggested would make sense though? A guaranteed signing bonus of 20M or so might sound good to Love and the Packers could potentially get some cap friendly numbers in '24 and '25 if he pans out. Maybe that IS the delay. "Take this deal or we're going to decline your option and if you suck this year you'll be looking around for a cheap backup job somewhere next year." In much nicer words, of course.
  14. adambr2
    Still no decision on Love's 5th year option. If they aren't willing to commit 20M or so to him for 2024, in a QB market where Daniel Jones types get 40M a year, they are not nearly as confident in him as they've implied.
  15. adambr2
    Pretty happy with this class so far. Only issue I have is that we went into this draft with a big problem at safety and we still have a big problem at safety.
  16. adambr2
    Since I'd like to avoid drafting in the 3rd anyway (only half joking)...how about trading our 3rd for D'Andre Swift?
  17. adambr2
    Does Will Levis have a different woman hanging off his nuts every time the camera pans to him?
  18. adambr2
    Wasn't Wyatt a DE last year?
  19. adambr2
    Oh for sure. There's been a ton of great value in the mid 1st.
  20. adambr2
    Well I mean Gonzalez was projected as high as top 5-8. Sure seems like good value to me.
  21. adambr2
    I never said any were DE...it's definitely a need position.
  22. adambr2
    We've been drafting defense 1st for years. Doesn't really matter when we continue to employ a DC who doesn't know how to utilize defensive talent.

    If they can bring both Lopez and Middleton back I am good with it. That would probably be the best way to attract someone like Nurse if they do can Bud. I don't know that they have a better alternative than to just try to run it back with their core. It worked in '21 but sooner or later age is going to catch up to these guys, maybe it already has. Not Giannis, but a pretty good chunk of the rest of the core. But for now, try to run it back, maybe a new HC, I don't know what else they can really do? They really need to examine what they are doing to try to plug holes at the deadline though because these moves are just not working at all.
  24. adambr2
    Any silver linings? Hope for getting back to '21? The way I'm seeing it, Lopez and/or Middleton might both be gone and we don't have much cap or capital to build a solid group around Giannis. But I don't know much about roster salary limitations work in the NBA. Am I wrong in saying that Horst has been under the radar awful, especially at the deadline, and criminally overrated as a GM? Crowder, terrible. Ibaka, terrible. Mirotic, terrible. PJ Tucker is the only move that remotely brought what we expected to the table.

    Guys seriously though, the Heat looked good. Decent chance they beat the Knicks.
