2025-26 Team Developments: Trades / Free Agents / News / Rumors / Ideas

Bring the season down to 64 games.

 

Austin done for the season, sets up a compelling decision this summer. What's his contract offer now?

 

I don’t think it really matters too much to our roster building this summer. He is being signed to bird rights and after we use up all of our cap space.

So is having 5-10 million less on Reaves’ contract next offseason worth anything? I don’t really think so? We’re gonna be over the first apron regardless.

 

don't need to get another star. definitely not "gianniss"

they're going to pay reaves, so their best bet is to go out and find someone who can form a 2A and 2B tandem with reaves

 

I wanted to see AR i the playoffs, with his new contract around the corner i needed some assurances...

 

I still don’t believe AR can be the second best player on a championship team unless that team is deep off the bench

 

Totally agree I mean currently I think that is the only conclusion.

 

The first name that comes to mind for me is, unironically, Zion. I like the current dynamic with Reaves and LeBron, where we have two very different pitches to throw after Luka. P&R heavy scoring guard and big, physical bully-ball forward. It would obviously be a huge gamble with Zion, but he’s the one guy I see out there with the talent to be a 2B that could maybe be had for cheap enough that we still have assets to add another rotation player or two.

 

Most disappointing season since the first one with Brick.
We probably still wouldn’t have beat OKC or Spurs, but you never know with the randomness of injuries.

 

The only chance we had is if teams get injured not our players the ones getting injured

 

No team wins the Chip without a good bench.
