- 2014 NBA offseason thread, v3: Draft Part B- Why me, man? -

[metal]

Are there really that many teams that have the cap to sign him though? Could be why maybe.

It's BS Masai already talked it down and Raps have no reason to help the cHeat and don't want any of their garbage back. Also it's Bucher still reporting this. The same dumbass who reported the S&T yesterday, where Bosh would be coming back.. He reports for Bleacher Report. 'nuff said.

Moving on.

 

[Palpatine]

Teams have to vehemently deny it for at least a few more days because it would be against the rules.

bucher a fucking can

Ahwg.....

according to multiple reports dwyane wade and chris bosh will opt out of their deals and become free agents.
This is pretty good news if you're a heat fan hoping to hang onto lebron, since wade in particular has zero financial reason to adjust his deal unless he's doing it for the greater good. We'll clean this report up as details emerge.

lol I called this yesterday when someone was posting a Bucher rumor

Update: Ric Bucher has retracted his reports from Friday afternoon and Thursday evening in regards to Kyle Lowry going to the Heat.

Here is his statement on Twitter:

My deepest and sincere apologies. My report on Lowry and a S&T between the Raptors-Heat is wrong. I should've known better. I could not be more embarrassed. I can't explain why someone would go the lengths "my source" did to set me up, but that's irrelevant. I allowed my zeal to break a story take too much for granted. I'd like to think I'm better than that. Yesterday and today I was not.

lmao @ him claiming to have been "set up" by his source. Brilliant move there Ric. I'm sure people are now going to start taking your "sources" even ore seriously than they already do.

 

[metal]

I don't know how anyone could take Bucher serious. I just seen it posted, and brought it here. Even if true how could they afford to keep Lowry unless they lost Wade, and Bosh

 

[ChillyPalmer]

Bucher should just commit Harry Carey.

 

[faustian]

I honestly think there's something seriously wrong with Bucher. He's gone from merely incompetent to full blown headcase.

 

[ChillyPalmer]

Faust is beyond furious.

How dare this can get his hopes up.

[faustian]

Yeah Bucher really got my hopes up because I think of him as such a credible journalist

Post from yesterday after Bucher first started with the MIA/TOR talk:

Ric Bucher

His babbling is so inane that even ESPN couldn't stomach it

im super happy with the lakers getting julius randle, he was the guy i was pulling for going into the draft for us. He is ready to contribute immediately, plays with passion and most importantly, is a big man. Lakers need everything, but the big men free agent list this summer is pretty sorry. I wouldnt want to throw huge money at greg monroe. Now we just need to resign pau and hill and we have a nice 3 man big rotation in place and that means we could use the cap space on a pg like lowry, bledsoe or my personal preference, lance stephenson. We get one of those guys and fill out the bench by bringing back some of last years guys like young, meeks, farmar and henry then boom, we're back in the playoffs.

 

[Palpatine]

Pua and Young are on their way out, but Randle will play well for you guys until he moves on to another team (have source to prove this).

 

[ChillyPalmer]

Be careful with your "Sources".

Some real scallywags in the scouting world these days.

 

[El Chimpo]

im content with this magic team


would like to pick up a savvy veteran at some point

Be careful with your "Sources".

Some real scallywags in the scouting world these days.

Considering the source is Randhall himself, I'd say I'm alright.

i know you being a knicks fan must be used to guys wanting to leave but in here in laker land, other then pussy ass dwight, no one wants to leave on their own will.
