3 years $130 million for FVV!
God bless him if that's true, but if they needed swaying I hope they're fired yesterday.

Hate the 3rd year. Was fine with 2.
At least not a long term deal
But damn that's a lot. Gotta spend it though.

We bought a rock band?
7nine
I'm with ya but if 3 years gets it done, let's go.
Watching NBA Today and Richard Jefferson is spot on. Get adults in the room with Ime and they can rangle these other dudes into playing real basketball.
He said if we get all 3 ( Lopez, Brooks, FVV) we make the 8 seed. That's a stretch with how deep the west will be but I'm in!

Just used ~41mm of the 60mm on FVV. Gotta move KPJ at least to be able to give Brook and Brooks money.Woods Ag said:

My problem with this is what if jalen green and sengun end up being dominant max type guys after two years. Do you have money to give them that with FVV at $45 mil?
Also he only shot 39% from the field last year? And y'all ***** about Jalen green?
Right now he would be the only person not on a rookie contract in summer 2025.mAgnoliAg said:

Want no part of brooks. Guy talks mad **** and never backs it up when it counts. F that noise
I'm not a fan. Don't want him but I'm so elated they don't want Harden, I'll take this bad piece.
None of these contracts will hinder their ability to resign their young guys.

I am a firm believer in every good team needing a nasty dude. I don't like Dillon Brooks, but maybe I do if they rockets are scrappy.
We got FVV!
FVV has positive win shares per 48 despite playing on a not great team
My hunch right now is that the third year on Fred VanVleet’s contract will be a team option. I trust our front office on this one.

When are full details announced?
Did Houston have to give Fred the max?
Big fan of adding FVV. I think he's a great fit. Not crazy about the third year.
Don't want Brooks but sounds like that's going to happen. Might have to be a sign and trade though.
Lopez would be a big addition as well. Hopefully he decides today.
We need to ship out some players now. KPJ, KJ, and Tate all seem good candidates to be moved. I wonder if we can get something out of the Dame movement.

Yes. he got the max for three years. I think they wanted to give it to him for 2 years.Dan Scott said:

Curious what the plan is for all of the young talent. There's just too much, we are going to have to move a couple of guys.
Free agent center Brook Lopez has agreed to a two-year, $48 million deal to return to the Milwaukee Bucks, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

No Lopez in Houston
That's fine. 35 year old dude that we made them pay $24m a year to.
They need to go offer the max to Austin Reeves now so that the Lakers match. If we don't get our guys this year, we'll financially handicap everyone else and get who we want next time.

Too late
RFA Austin Reaves has agreed to return to the Los Angeles Lakers on a four-year, $56 million Early Bird maximum contract, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Agents Aaron Reilly and Reggie Berry of AMR Agency negotiated the new deal to keep Reaves in L.A. long term.

Dang, i was hopin someone would pull the trigger on a max deal 
Oh well, I don't see anyone else left worth targeting. Would prefer if we passed on Brooks.

Damn. Guessing they'll turn to the trade market for a rim protector.
Rockets are nearing a deal sending two former first-round picks, TyTy Washington Jr. and Usman Garuba, along with draft compensation to Atlanta, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.
