NBA- Best/Worst Moves of the Offseason
I'm not a huge Dwight fan, but it was a good move by the Rockets. I still think they are a few players away, but they will be an intriguing team to watch.
Mike Dunleavy was a good pick up by the Bulls. He will fit in well off the bench.
The Nets take the crown for the worst moves of the offseason. I love KG and Pierce, but they are too old and brittle to challenge Miami. They have Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, and Pierce on the perimeter. Three slow guys playing D against Miami and Chicago. They just paid a shitload and gave up picks to win a #3 or #4 seed. They will be gone by the 2nd round.
All of Dallas' moves were terrible. Calderon and Ellis in the same backcourt? Enjoy getting lit up as an 8 seed.
Josh Smith to Detriot- Why pay 56 million to still suck. Might as well tank.

What about the Supes? #HiLance

There's no way the Spurs resign Artis Gilmore.

Pacers have had a sneaky good offseason. Their bench was terrible and even with that pushed Race Bannon's Heat to a full seven games.

Good call. They have made some nice moves.He_Needs_More_Time said:Pacers have had a sneaky good offseason. Their bench was terrible and even with that pushed Race Bannon's Heat to a full seven games.

Dudley was a really good role player when he played with Nash, and I think he will do well for the Clips. 3 and D swingmen are very valuable, and Redick and Dudley are a huge upgrade over what they had. It doesn't hurt that they re-signed Barnes as well for another guy in this spot.

The Nets were a capped out team that could only sign a 3 million dollar a year free agent and somehow turned Kris Humphries and Gerald Wallace into Garnett and Pierce. They also signed Kirilenko for less then half of what other teams were offering. To say they had the worst off season is really stupid. They had a mediocore first round loss team last year and somehow with no cap space nor quality assets turned it into a team that statistically projects to be the best team in the east next year. I don't think they'll be the best team in the east but they've given themselves at least a punchers chance.
As far as how old they are. Personally I'm not an ageist like you. I think senior citizens like Race Bannon have a lot to offer the community. And if you'll remember, the leader of the team that just pushed the Heat to 7 games was too old and too brittle or so most people thought. -
The moves made by Dallas in the off-season have been beaten to death around here. If you want to be critical that's fine but some of you don't know when to stop. We're in the process of creating a board dedicated to the off-season moves made by Dallas, and will be moving this thread there.

I understand turning Humphries and Wallace into Garnett and Pierce is a coup, but look at their roster. How the fuck are they going to guard any perimeter oriented team? Teams that go small are going to tear them the fuck up. They gave up multiple first rounders and are going to pay up the ass because of the luxury tax. The Russian obviously doesn't give a fuck, but wasting money to lose in the 2nd round is not good business.TheKobeStopper said:

Calling the Nets, the team that statistically projects to be the best team is what is silly. The Heat, Pacers, Bulls, and possibly the Knicks are better. The Nets are still a middle of the conference team.

The Lakers won by not signing Howard. They'll suck this year and get rid of all their contracts and then get Lebron. The Heat three peat this year. No other team matters. HTH

So you're saying the Nets will be the best team in the East like Hasty was the best back on the field?TheKobeStopper said:

I've seen Trader Bob try to play fantasy basketball like this before. It doesn't work.
