Shams said deal is being finalized. BOOOOM.

[ozwego15]

is this the 3rd team in the 3-team trade?

I think we are going to have 4 teams involved.

[superstar7th]

Why? He doesn't stretch floor at all. And his contract is at 28 mil. Only saving grace is it expires next year.

[Impose]

Adams is a terrific human being and a humble teammate. I agree its not the floor spacing C we'd love to find, but you take Adams over Baynes every day of the week.

[UNO Gracias]

Yeah, Adam’s is a definite upgrade over whatever corpse we rolled out to play center last year.

Great guy but he is not worth 28 mil averaging 0.7 blocks a game. This doesnt help team spacing at all. How does this help us. 28 mil for a center that doesnt fit the roster. Maybe its a one year rental. Baynes would be a fraction of the cost and a much better shooter for how our team is designed.

His contract is what we want more than the talent he possesses. Having that much $$$ coming off the books next year puts the Pels in a very enviable position.

That's the only logical explanation . gotta be. Only thing that makes sense.

[Sleeper]

I called this draft night. Felt in my bones!


Edit: i said Hill, D miller, and some picks

Hope i?m right

Maybe they will play different than last year, since they have a different coach. Perhaps they will have Zion playing out of the paint more, since he did so well in his first game, going 4 for 4 from the 3 point line.

Somebody gets it.

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!! Especially cause the free agency class next year is stacked.

Y’all, we are landing the Dothraki king, and draft picks. This is going to be wild.

[superstar7th]

Did we give up picks for adams?

[Pelifan]

Denver first we got from 24 and 2nds.

Very shortsighted move.

Denver is gonna be pretty good even in 2023 so I have no problem with it.

Hmmm i don't know how to feel about this one. Ill reserve judgment until the other moves come into play.

Adams is a very underrated passer. Dude is going to transform this defense.

Facts. Dudes defense isn't top tier per say, but it's definitely much better than most. Plus his rebounding, and passing will help us tremendously. Hayes will get some good tips from him

[Darkhorse985]

So, how do we have the salary cap space to take on Adams, Bledsoe, and Hill?

[As I See It]

A 1 and two 2's for a one year rental? That's "Demps-esque"!!!

All the details haven't came out yet. I'm sure at the very least Bledsoe is gone.

[JJackisangry]

I like Adams but I’m not crazy about giving up the first. It is what it is. I understand we are trying to shed Bledsoe’s contract
