IT's next Team and Contract

Kind of sad how it turned out for IT  but life throws you a lot of curveballs I guess.

how did it turn out? No one knows what he will get offered

It won't be a Brinks truck...be lucky if it's a U-Haul.

Might be the trunk of a Ford Focus

Sure looking like it.

Seeing what just happened to Brook Lopez I think IT will have to sign the minimum, which is just a stupid good deal. If you can get IT for the minimum right now and you don't do it you simply don't deserve to be in the playoffs or even a winning team. I mean really. Jabari Bird might get a minimum but not IT. That's incredibly stupid

I have a sneaking suspicion that if Mr. Brinks Truck was willing to accept a minimum deal, he'd be on someone's roster right now.

yup, GSW

Man I just went on a ghost chase for IT w/ the Warriors...  LOL.    If I were him....he could really rehab and win a ring....LOL

Last season, he played mediocre basketball, was a questionable locker room presence in Cleveland, and ended his season early to have a hip surgery he should've had a year ago for an injury that already cost him half a season.

The first and third criticisms are factual. I think the second is overblown. He was an issue in the locker room because he tried to get his teams to play hard, and the entrenched stars didn’t appreciate it. They were content to sleepwalk through games.

His experience also mirrored what Crowder said when he got to Utah if memory serves correct. The team was a dumpster fire and wade was also a big part of it. From everything i have heard Crowder had no issues with Utah and played a bit better there.

He was an issue in the locker room because he publicly criticized his teammates and coaching staff in the media despite the fact that he was shooting 36% from the field while being historically bad on defense.

I'm not saying he was the only problem in that locker room, hence the midseason reset, but I won't martyr him either.
