Tristian double downed on the worst one of them all. This ninja dumb as hell. Don’t son got a brood of kids out there by some skrippers?

Khloe gonna dump him again eventually.
 
damn i celebrated too early.

wish these nba media guys would stop making **** up. first suns not expected to match and suns cant sign and trade but now suns expected to match and are open to sign and trade wtf?
 
I always wonder with offer sheets in any sport if there’s hard feelings on the players side if the team matches. Like if they’re in their minds thinking “please don’t match you broke garbage *** team”. Or just business.

Edit: “I signed this offer sheet for a mf’n reason to get away from you idiots!”
HELL YEAH there’s hard feelings. He doesn’t want to go back there
 
why the stone face? Ayton is an efficient 20, 10 guy who's only improving on both sides of the court getting paid 33mil. It's not like they have other max players to balance the roster out. They're also not a free agent destination so this is a big win for them.

Now they gotta figure out what to do with Turner.

He’s never averaged 20 though. Not mad at him for getting paid but I would have gone center by committee and rolled the dice on the tank. That’s a lot of $ for a guy with a questionable dawg and doesn’t command a double team.
 
the conspiracy theorist in me thinks this was all a media and NBA ploy to draw up talk in an otherwise uneventful off season. murray, brunson and ayton as the biggest names is equivalent to having a boring draft class
**** it might be lol

all that hoopla just for them to end up staying put is crazy tho :lol
 
So if PHX does match what does that mean for their pursuit of KD?
 
Yeah I can’t imagine Ayton would be enthusiastic about having to back to PHX even if he gets paid. There was enough smoke that they didn’t want to pay him. They just don’t want to lose the asset.
Doesn't sound like Monty messes with him either anymore after that playoff exit

Ayton can't be traded until January so if there's anything with PHX, it won't happen until then.

Hah I just looked up some past matched offer sheets, there aren’t many but EG in NO stands out he openly said he was disappointed they matched.

The Ayton situation is like this one but a few others I read are guys trying to pressure their teams for more money, just business.
 
Why even be an owner if you’re going to be cheap as ****. Sarver passed on Luka to draft his UA big but then doesn’t want to pay him the max on his 2nd contract?

Paying these guys big money cuts into their earnings. Some of these owners rather lose or be cheap, in order to earn more :lol :lol
 
Want to say Washington matched a max sheet from Brooklyn for Otto?
 



ESPN gotta load manage him going forward

Probably from hitting the pads
