2015 Draft and Free Agency
This involves so many that I'm just going to tag all of you.
(@BenitoSTARR @Dan @Dr. Dwayne @P-Nut @Salt Bailly @Samid @Skizzo @Solius @Stobzilla @The Cat @V.O. @altodevil @hobbers @oneniltothearsenal @reelworld @sebsheep @weetee @Heine)
Top 10 picks
A bit surprised Houston went for
weeweetee, considering they already have two pretty good, young-ish Centers. I'd have thought they'd go for Heine, or even Dr. Junior. Though I think history has proven that picking the best player is never a bad idea - and weeweetee is definitely the best right out of the draft. Also he can't rebound or dunk, so I guess he plays a slightly different role.
The Spurs picked up both
Heine and
Sonius, to pair with
Nobbers. Nobbers only has one year left on his contract, so they'd have to be good pretty much
immediately to have any chance of keeping this core together.
Dr. Junior was drafted by Cleveland, which means he's the first player to play on the same team as his father. Well,
play is a strong word, considering
Dr. Dwayne's contract expired and he... well, no spoilers for the rest of this post.
(Apropos nothing, keep in mind that I will allow anyone to change their position at the start of the season - including to Auto).
The rest of the draft
Free Agency
Solius has left Memphis and decided to sign what's probably his last contract with the New Orleans Pelicans for $20.57m/year (!) through 2020. That's the 5th highest salary in the NBA for someone who is about to turn 36.
P-Nut has left Milwaukee and signed with the Denver Nuggets for $16.05m/year through 2020.
SebJr has re-signed with the Miami Heat for $13.18m/year through 2020.
weetee has left Oklahoma City to sign with the Golden State Warriors for $4.68m/year through 2018.
Dr. Dwayne has magnanimously decided to vacate Cleveland, so as to let his son get out of his shadow. Probably. He's then decided to join
The Cub in Oklahoma City.
Skizzo is yet to find a team. You can create a new player if you want, though it's always possible you get picked up eventually.
