Apparently Caruso may also be getting a 4-year 80-million dollar deal. These contracts are about to get nuts haha. In 5 years, the top guys are gonna be getting close to 100 million a year.

I just want to point this out, as it is NBA related, but the ESPN pre/halftime/post game presentations are atrocious. When they do cut aways to Stephen A Smith entering the building like they do the players you know it's jumped the shark. They are in DESPERATE need of fixing it.

The Brooklyn Nets have agreed in principle on a trade to send F Mikal Bridges to the New York Knicks for Bojan Bogdanovic, four unprotected first-round picks, a protected first-round pick via Bucks, an unprotected pick swap and a second-rounder.

Wow 4 (5) unprotected 1st round picks. First that is a ridiculous deal for Bridges who is a non-superstar. Second I'm jealous as hell they got all that for Bridges and we'll be lucky to get a straight salary dump for LaVine.

Charles Barkley ripped them to shreds a couple of weeks ago, he had a lot of good points in his critique.

Knicks pushing all their chips into the middle of the table. Now or never I suppose. Bulls will get pennies on the dollar for LV.

NFL players literally risk their brains for peanuts and non-guaranteed money.

Rockets’ wild trade with Nets is all about trying to get Kevin Durant or Devin Booker
The Rockets are openly courting Kevin Durant or Devin Booker by trading for the Suns’ future draft picks.

Houston making moves to get Durant (why?) or Booker (not happening). Brooklyn going into full-on tank mode.

I wouldn’t say peanuts…but for sure the NBA has a more favorable salary/contract situation for the players. Infinitely worse product, but more favorable for the players.

Bridges still has the potential to elevate. Lavine is what he is at this point.
However even two 1sts would be nice for lavine, but it appears they can't even get that.
I still rate this as a massive overpay by the Knicks.

Yeah, the Knicks got raped here, imo.
Sure, they win in the short term, and this MIGHT help them advance to the Finals (though Boston is still superior).
But within the next 3-4 years, I think they look back and regret this deal. Bridges is good, but he's not 4 unprotected 1st round picks good.

The Celtics say Kristaps Porzingis had surgery to repair a torn retinaculum and dislocated posterior tibialis tendon, and that he will return to play in “5-to-6 months”. Will miss start of season.
