2013 NBA Offseason |OT| Already Planning for the 2014 Offseason
- Thread starter Rodeo Clown
- Start date
Maynor was really good for Portland and played a significant amount of backup minutes, and that didn't seem to hinder Lillard at all. In fact, Lillard's best month of March was also Maynor's best month by far.

NBA Draft 2013

All aboard! The Love train!
Yeah, because you have to give Flip Saunders the godfather offer to become your next GM, right?
I've heard that Flip's stake is like $8M, which is a only couple percent, but why?
New TV deal will turn that $8M into $16M.

really glad this happened because I don't want him
I'll be happy with either Oladipo or Olynyk

I'm pretty sure that the Wolves' value won't double (that would be close to $600M, which they won't reach for a lot of reasons like the market, Target Center, and their FSN deal, which is where the money is these days), but Flip's stake will only increase in value, that's true.
It's pretty strange and very Timberwolves. Flip coming back as GM, well, yeah, of course. Taylor runs a country club. But he didn't need a stake in the franchise. He's not Phil Jackson or Pat Riley or anything.

Flip....is an unknown. He liked Vesely...but that draft was awful anyway. We'll see what happens..

Rick Adelman thought pretty highly of David Kahn. When Taylor asked him about hiring Flip:

Adelman liked Wes Johnson doe

No, he didn't. He wasn't here when Wes was picked and he only got burn out of necessity. Wes was one of the players Adelman really wanted to get rid of.

Not according to Kahn.
Kahn on the Wes Johnson pick said:

Syracuse propaganda.
I wasn't impressed by him anyways.

I wasn't either, but it's still another blow.
Wonder if Portland has a shot at Nate Robinson? Always loved his game and his personality is perfect for the Blazers. Don't hate Maynor but he seems potentially stop-gap.
Expect big things out of Leonard and Barton next year. Barton's game really adapted over the course of the season and if he can eat some steaks/find a jumper - look out.
I think Claver stays on but we lose Freeland along with Babbitt, Smith, Pavlovic,

Earl Clark says he'll take less money on a shorter deal if it means he can stay in LA. Poor bastard.

Well Pierce looks pretty much done so that'd be a perfect Lakers move.

Trade Pau?
I got you.
But not for Booz. Nice try. No new contracts. I would literally trade Pau for nothing. Literally nothing. Just cap space.
That would be pretty difficult. The only way that's possible is trading him to a team with 20 million in cap space that also wants old Pau Gasol for some reason.

CP3
Harden
Parsons
Terrence Jones
Asik
With Beverley, Lin, Donuts, and Delfino off the bench could be pretty good.
Wonder if this scenario could come to be, makes a lot of sense...
The pace whiplash from year to year would be hilarious though.

Well now I know what stiff we will be drafting.
Gotta replace Bynum's role as big guy in a suit.
Then, you're not trading him. Why would anyone want an older disgruntled Pau? Booz outplayed him this season, and Pau's body seems to be falling apart now.

He played really well in the playoffs, and is on the final year of his contract. I could see a lot of teams wanting him to make a run next season. Pau has a lot of value, especially if the Lakers aren't asking for the world in return. It's not like I'm expecting to get Rondo or CP3 for him.
So who's it looking like the suns will draft? I saw some mocks saying McLemore, but I don't see anyone we get making much of a impact with that mess of a team. We need a new owner who's not a cheap ass, I mean we drafted rondo and then sold him to the celtics for cash money, what a waste. Oh I also forgot, we turned that rondo deal into Rudy Fernández in the next draft, and got rid of him too. I mean WTF.
CP3 is going to Dallas with Dwight. Do it Cuban.
Then, it may just be better to keep him and take the cap space, if he's not going to be used to bring in a major talent.

Can tank better without him.
This would be amazing.
