2025-26 NBA Season

[Manwiththeplan]

Im really conflicted on the Giannis to Boston smoke. Ive always beenna huge fan, and in that regards would be like getting KG back in 07. However he is the quintessential flawed superstar, and there is a real his game may not age well. Im also a big Brown fan, and feel like he is ingrained in this club. However if you can get Giannis for essentially Brown and change, thats selling very high in Brown. And Browns value right now is the highest its ever been.

I do think the Celtics will have to reform their core making this move. I can also see them buying low on Ja. However thats a huge gamble and I don't know how that would work out

yea... it's tough because if I'm Milwaukee I don't entertain an even swap... not sure if I'm Boston if I'm willing to add White or Pritchard

bjamin999. NBAWAYOFFS is a fan/rumor account, not a credible insider.

The idea that Gafford could net you a 2031 pick... potentially unprotected, when the LAL have their pick this year (2026) and next year (2027 1-4 own; 5-30 Memphis) as tradeable assets should be a flag

I dont think it would be those two would part of that trade. Not White at least. White makes too much. I think they would probably add picks to the package. Possibly younger players like Gonzalez or Walsh if Milwaukee prefers rookie contract vets to picks. Brown would likely be going to Atl or NO in a three team.

I think there is a good chance White and or Pritchard get delt, but I think those would be separate trades to further reshape the roster

[darthseinfeld]

Dont agree. I think Vassell is a big part of their core and shouldn't be delt. I think KJ is important as microwave too.

I dont think now is the time to be aggressive. You have key players that are still developing. You need to know what they are going to be before you get aggressive

I hope Brunson winning the championship shut her up! She needs to focus on her team, not talking about small players!

 

[rambo2]

Note to Perkins. Absolutely nobody picked them to go to the finals this year and they have Jones-Garcia stashed.

Seeing Patrick holding the championship trophy has bought tears to my eyes, I have been praying that Patrick will get a ring for years and he is finally getting a ring as an ambassador for the Knicks! Patrick is one of my favorite players and a class act!

Looking like he can still drop a 30/10 top!

That and so many Lakers fan accounts on X been trying to package Vando with Knect to aquire a good center in "rumors" over the past year that it's starting to become a meme.

 

[Bamx]

After the Luka trade there's no such thing as "Untouchable." Not saying the Luka trade is something very common, but it does show that anyone can be traded.

Brunson should still be a Maverick. Screw you Nico.

I think that was more on Cuban. Nico came in afterwards.

Nico became the Mavericks general manager in 2021 and Brunson left the Mavericks in 2022 so it is all on Nico

Nico had nothing to do with that he has enough on his plate without adding that. That was Cuban. Him and Donnie actually….

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Nico became the Mavericks general manager in 2021 and Brunson left the Mavericks in 2022 so it is all on Nico

Donnie Nelson signed Brunson to a 4 year contract which allowed them to lose the right to match the Knicks offer.

Then had the chance to extend but Cuban didn’t.

Nico didn’t get full power until Cuban left. Or sold the team.

Nico has a long resume of goofs that don’t make his resume look worse or better with Brunson on it.

You are right

 

[Manwiththeplan]

are second round pick contracts not standard? asking because I don't know...

Nico wasn't involved. Cuban was the main person involved and there was a power struggle between him and Nico.

However, the Luka trade had Nico written all over it.

When saying Nico came in afterwards was pointing to anything after Brunson was Nico. Brunson was all Cuban
