NBA News: Offseason

[Indy]

Pulling the All-Star game from Charlotte only feeds the southern conservatives' belief that their culture is under attack from the forces of political correctness.

This term just means I should be able to discriminate as much or as little as I want, and people shouldn't be able to criticize me, much less stop me, Right?

Bummed.

[Cap]

Good for him. He wasn't going to get much of an opportunity here.

[ShelC]

Just saw this...wish we could've kept him.

[Shabazz]

We've got PJ to develop.

It is. And it's not just southern. I come to this forum and am an nba fan because it is a break from the religious and political discussion that is a necessary part of my every day life.

If Adam Silver is serious about this, he needs to let transgender men--biologically altered or not--play in the WNBA. Walk the walk first, before you demand others do it.

this has nothing to do with "political correctness". this is all about helping democrats in the 2016 elections.

just look at the timing of the announcement, during trump's acceptance speech

[O_Gardino]

OMG, we should have moved this to the politics section.

[JCSunsfan]

Yup

Is it really shocking? That puts him right in Batum / DeRozan territory.

I'm still not used to it. That's $26.5M dollars per year. What would Bledsoe have gotten this Summer with his 20/6/4? I mean he signed a 5/70 deal. CJ just signed a 4/106.

They all knew this was coming. Bledsoe, Knight and even Chandler look like bargains.

[specialsauce]

The fact that CJ McCollum was maxed-out, regardless of what set "max" level is, is definitely surprising.

If the cap was lower, would you have maxed him at the lower cap???

I would never take that % of my cap space and use it on a player like McCollum.

Yes that is surprising.

[Superbone]

Do you think McCollum could have ever imagined anything like this coming out of college?

[wpmiller42]

All I have to say about some of these contracts is that I'm so glad the Suns have stood pat and not really overpaid for anyone. Knock on wood, I feel like we're right to sit this offseason out for the most part.
