RE: NBA season to forget? or to be remembered forever??

in #nba8 years ago (edited)

Nice read. No doubt in my mind this will be a season for the ages, bigger than anything we´ve seen before.
You can see my take on it here:

Feel free to reply...
On the free agency side, I don´t see Horford the way you do:
Has a history with injuries, is on the wrong side of 30, so it´s only a matter of time until that contract looks like a bad one. As of now, it looks good. However, we tend to forget it has to look good through the whole length of it, not only the day the player signs up.
Winners and losers?
Warriors are easy winners. Every team would exchange offseasons with them, and they would exchange theirs with no one.
Pelicans, Lakers an Rockets, on the other hand... at least the Horford contract looks good now. Hill, Mozgov, Deng, Anderson, Gordon... they all look like gross overpayments now, and it will only get worst.

Sort:  
  • overpaying for free agents will likely become the norm with the salary cap increasing year by year.
  • regarding warriors being winners, i reserve judgement on this one only because an injury to any of their main players would have a much bigger impact now than before due to the thinning of their bench talent.
  • hmmm horford, i see your pt on his injuries but i think his past shoulder injuries were more freak injuries and shouldn't fingers crossed for celtics fans have a high chance of reoccuring.

p.s. love your post!
