Wow, OJ Mayo dismissed and disqualified from the NBA for violating the NBA anti-drug program.

 

Was just coming to post this. Two years. Wow. Moron...

[patrickgpe]

sixers give Bayless 3/27. free agency is officially out of control.

don't think that mayo was in the plans. but this effectively ends his career.

I'm 6'8", 15 years and 50 pounds past my playing weight. At the height of my basketball career, I was the 11th man on a small NAIA team.

 

I'm pretty sure I could get 2/18 in this market. I need an agent.

How exactly do you get a ban when the only previous issue was a 10 game PED ban? All the info I have seen doesn't say why such a harsh penalty for a 1st time offensive for a drug of abuse. Weird. Not that he was coming back to the Bucks but that is still crazy.

"Drugs of abuse" gets you an instant ban. Marijuana is not considered among those.

 

Those drugs are listed as “amphetamine and its analogs (including, but not limited to, methamphetamine and MDMA), cocaine, LSD, opiates (heroin, codeine and morphine), and PCP.”

 

There's been whispers of OJ doing coke for awhile. It wouldn't shock me.

[patrickgpe]

bucks just gave 3/30 to Mirza Teletovic, who i can't say i ever heard of.

[DuWayne Steurer]

When it came out a few days ago that Dwight Howard was seeking 25 million per, I thought he was off his rocker. But if Timofey Mozgof is getting 4/65, Howard getting 24/25 per is probably not out of the question.

Stretch 4. Not a bad signing. For those that are fans of leadership qualities...he is the Captain of the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team...

[patrickgpe]

Bucks signing Delly to an offer sheet 4/38. I would expect (hope) the cavs match, but the signing is less than the 12 million he was expected to get and by the way funny money is flowing around the NBA i don't hate this.

[rwa12]

Agreed, that's pretty cheap after what I've seen today. That Evan Turner signing just has me shaking my head.

[patrickgpe]

That Evan Turner signing just has me shaking my head.

how does turner get twice as much as delly?

[DuWayne Steurer]

Barf. Please please please let cleveland match this offer. Dellavedova is the dirtiest player in the league. I want nothing to do with him.

[DuWayne Steurer]

How in the world does evan Turner get 70 million dollars??? I realize the nba is playing with monopoly money, but this is stupid.

[fondybrewfan]

Crazy you get an instant ban for doing coke. I don't think other leagues have anything that harsh.

 

The two signings are obvious attempts to improve the team shooting. I am not sure where they go from here; unless they trade Monroe I don't think they have enough cap space to add another significant piece.

The Bucks need someone with some scrappyness. That being said I watch no nba except for the Bucks so I can't comment on his dirtiness

 

It appears the Bucks improved their shooting and defense today which is what I wanted from the offseason

[GAME05]

Lebron has already tweeted a goodbye to Delly. With the Cavs over the cap as it is, they're not going to match.

 

Looks like all that's left is possibly/probably trading Monroe and MCW.

[patrickgpe]

Howard to the Hawks, Bucks dodge that bullet

Meeting with wade next week so there could be more going on

[MadThinker88]

Delly will give his all AT ALL TIMES. Sadly when he goes full bore and others are not, his scrappy demeanor is looked upon as dirty.

 

I believe he can play in the league and be productive as a role player, coming off a bench to provide a spark or harass a player on the opposition that is on fire.

 

I think the Bucks overpaid big time. I wish Delly well moving forward but I suspect that many fans will scream for his head/ release after 1 year when he fails to average double digit points or assists...

[stoutdude04]

It's hard to think it was an overpay when guys I have barely heard of are getting 20 mil a year.

Well, no, he's actually a dirty player. Call it "scrappy" all you want, but he does stuff that doesn't belong on a basketball court.

None of those plays have anything to do with grit or scrappy or toughness. They are dirty. They are plays where if you did them during a pickup game, you'd get punched.

[molitor fan]

Many people here are way too young to remember the amazing playoff series' the Bucks had against the Celtics in the 80's, But Dellavadova reminds me tremendously of a way less dirty version of Danny Ainge. Those who remember those games vs the Celtics may recall Ainge doing 8 or 9 of the things from that Delly "dirty" mix tape in a single series....like Delly, Ainge just outworked people....love the defensive tenacity

[rwa12]

After the last 2 days, Montoe is essentially being paid like a second unit player now, might as well hang onto him. Wow! Some contracts these guys are getting.

[FVBrewerFan]

Telly was a great pick up, especially for the price. Delly fits because of the D, and he is much better shooter off the ball, which he'll be with Giannis basically playing PG.
