no lol, AR is getting 100 m's easy

[kisada]

isn't he a first rounder? i wouldn't put it past jeanie to cheap out again like with caruso but i also would expect them to re-sign him.

[Deejay]

max they can offer him is 4 years 50. another team with cap space can (and likely will) swoop in and offer double that at 4 years 100. the lakers likely couldnt match without out some crazy cap-jutsu to prevent them from going obscenely over the cap in a couple years

[Deejay]

i'm betting someone like the spurs/thunder/magic throw 100 milly at him. i know i would

[Krandor]

A team offering a 4/98 contract would have weird math behind it due to Reaves falling under the Arenas rule.

The cap hit over the years would be something like 13/13/36/36, so by the time they'd really have to be paying him Lebron is likely gone playing with whatever team drafted Bronny


Edit

Year 1: $11,368,000 (non-taxpayer mid-level exception)
Year 2: $11,936,400 (five percent raise)
Year 3: $36,850,000 (as if he were paid the maximum in years 1 and 2)
Year 4: $38,508,250 (4.5 percent raise)
Total: $98,662,650

Is the max he can be offered

[archibaldcrane]

Hornets get scoot? scoot and melo is a fun backcourt

They'll probably take Brandon Miller since they have LaMelo already

[Roranora]

did Ja really apologize with chatgpt

[Andalusian girls]

just as expected, Boston outclassed

[Krandor]

The depth of Boston's roster just can't handle the power of Jimmy G Buckets

[archibaldcrane]

Tatum really embarrassed himself in the last few minutes there.

[Andalusian girls]

yeah he was not great to end but that vaunted Boston D has leaked pretty creakily these playoffs and was once again, Miami on scorching 54%/52% splits

[Gredival]

The defense is a leftover from Udoka's culture, but the team approach is no longer oriented towards winning through defense and I think the stats show that slippage.

[Deejay]

i dont see how boston plans to get stops when they need them. they have way more firepower than NY but you can't trade buckets when youre down 7

[Krandor]

Wonder how the media will try to spin this one as a positive for the Lakers

[Koyangi]

What happened? Unable to watch right now.

[Andalusian girls]

the Lakers played p good basketball but were unable to win the basketball game

it's kinda wild just how badly Bron's shot has abandoned him, didn't realize he was shooting a Westbrookian 25% from 3 in the playoffs and that'll be lower with 0-6 tonight

[Krandor]

What happened? Unable to watch right now.

Nothing overly catastrophic, just like ag said they played a good game but still got the L.

It seemed like all the media discourse following game 1 was about how clearly the Lakers figured out Jokic in the 4th and how that would unfold for the rest of the series. And that gets followed with Jokic putting up 23/17/12 and Murray dropping 23 by himself in the 4th.

So uh yeah, good luck sports media.
