Around the League: The Off-season

Sheesh.

It's good to be the king (of Portland).

So Russell doesn't even want to play with Booker?

He does ... In Minnesota.

It’s really hard to be a Suns fan right now. I don’t even love Russell at the max, but every other team is trying to make a leap and we’re tinkering around the margins.

So Russell doesn't even want to play with Booker?

Not necessarily.

Perhaps KAT is a better recruiter than Booker.

Or perhaps Booker didn’t even really try because they both know the Suns front office doesn’t want him.

Either way, it’s a sad day to be a Suns fan. Yet again.

Is it just me or does the level of both tampering and leaking seem to be at an all-time high this year?

Wowser for Brooklyn. Good for them.

Rozier gets over $19 million per year:

Man, who here would have been happy with Rozier for 19M per?

What would the starting salary be on that? Over $17 million? Even dumping Melton and Okobo probably wouldn’t have gotten us enough space to sign him!

No one. This is insane.

Wait until we sign Cory Joseph to $15 million per year tonight and use up all our cap space on him.

Still better than Rozier at $19.

I'd rather just not sign anyone. No one left is going to be worth what they get. This is how you get Tyler Johnson making $20M for a season.

What do you think the chances are we do nothing? Let's hope at the minimum, we get Oubre back.

Best case scenario at this point is that we sign nobody lol. Except Oubre of course.

That’s pretty bad considering we went into this offseason knowing that we HAD to get a point guard.

That Rozier contract...yikes. Glad that wasn’t us.
