Free Agent & Trade Thread, 2024-25

[165bows]

Wow, Mills to Miami.

Brad apparently hates signing buyout vets as much as he hates using 1st round picks lol.

This year's buyout vet signings:
Patty Mills - Heat
Thaddeus Young - Suns
Danilo Gallinari - Bucks
Delon Wright - Heat
Spencer Dinwiddie - Lakers
Kyle Lowry - Sixers
Mike Muscala - Thunder
TJ Warren - T-wolves
Shake Milton - Knicks

The guys Brad signed to an end of the bench roster spot (or converted from a 2-way) after the trade deadline so far during his tenure as POBO:
Nik Stauskus
Sam Hauser
Luke Kornet
Justin Champagnie
Malik Fitts
Juwan Morgan

At this point I'm assuming that 1 of our 2-way guys is getting converted..or we're gonna sign some guy out of the G league..and whoever it is will not play at all unless it's garbage time..and will then either get traded this summer, get waived this summer or possibly make the team next year and try to compete for some mins then (that's what happened for Stauskus, Hauser, Kornet, Fitts, Morgan and Champagnie)

Good review, worth noting Hauser is easily the best player (and best fit) of all of these guys right now. They'd have a pretty big hole on the bench without Hauwitzer really.

Keep it up, Brad.

I'm still with Converting Queta. He's got his issues: Fouls, Injuries. But, who doesn't?
I was sure that Brad would have Signed him, and added another Two-Way.

Nevertheless, he can still Convert Queta, up to the last day of the Regular Season.
Looks like it could be a bit crowded for Bigs. But then again, Al Horford wont be here forever. Best to test the waters.

That's interesting about conversion on the Last Day of the Regular Season. There's even some religious overtones. Brad Saves.

A few points on Queta's behalf:

1. He's Big
2. He's really big
3. Did I mention he is big?

Other than that, he's also been quite good in short spells. If the team is interested in keeping him around, it might be good to bring him to the big club now, lest he remember not being part of the team when contract time comes up in the summer.

Do they have 100 roster spots?

WTF, they got both Wright AND Mills.

It's a wrap now and our season's over. Oh, well. There's always next year.

Yup. Miami signs Mills, and the Celtics already have started losing. Man, I hate it when all these couch potato fans from other teams are right!!!!

I would've given him all the PP minutes in the playoffs.

We're facing something similar with Jrue next season and White the following season. Owners have to pony up if they wish to keep the band together.

Also the players have to give the owners a reason to keep the band together.

Patty Mills is 3/3 from deep with 11 points and it isn't even halftime yet against OKC.

Yup. I was advocating for us to sign him.

Brad tried, but MIA had more playing time to offer

What we need is someone who Jokic can’t move in the post so we don’t need to double. Is the corpse of Bayne heavy enough?

Maybe we can roll out Sofoklis Schortsanitis.

Tillman is good enough for Jokic.

But it still comes down to KP vs. Jokic in the last 5 minutes.

I was kidding around. No one is good enough for Jokic…
