He gets to live in San Antonio and be on a team whose ceiling is probably three-seed and never, ever making the Finals. Like, it's cool to play for Pop and all, but it's not exactly the situation it used to be.

Toronto with Demar is probably the 3 seed anyway.
Probably. But they could beat the other two teams. The Spurs aren't beating the Warriors. They're not beating the Rockets. They might not be beating the Lakers, Jazz or Thunder.
DeRozan also took 14 mil under a max deal so that the Raptors could use more space on other players. They told him he wasn't getting traded something like three days ago. He got thoroughly fucked here.

neither team would win a championship so I don’t get where you’re going with this line of reasoning
Toronto has a better chance of winning a championship with Kawhi than with DeRozan. Can’t rly blame them for making the deal. Sure it’s lame they lied to him but I don’t feel bad for him lol

My line of reasoning is that Demar DeRozan clearly made sacrifices to play in Toronto and is dejected that they traded him to San Antonio, so obviously in his mind it's no consolation to play for the also-ran Spurs, thus I feel bad for him.

Your initial point was he gets to play for the Spurs now. Lol.

OKC Thunder trade Carmelo and a protected 1st to Atlanta Hawks for Dennis Schroder and Mike Muscala. ATL will waive Anthony and he will be free to sign with whoever (Rockets probably.) Hawks continue to add future draft picks.

Excuse my ignorance, what's the point of including Melo in the trade? Why can't OKC just waive Melo themselves?

Honestly i dont know either. I think it has to do with shedding his contract to another team to get under the luxury tax or something. I guess Atlanta has the cap room to do it.
OKC could have stretched his 27 mil over three years, a nine million dollar cap hit per year, but instead traded him to a team that could buy him out right away.
Generally, you can't waive NBA contracts outright. There are some non guaranteed deals, but for the most part the deals are guaranteed. With a buyout they just have to negotiate a figure that the team and Melo can agree on, and then he's a free agent and can sign for whatever amount in addition to the buyout.
Rockets signed Capela for 80 mil/5 years, plus 2 mil a year in incentives. 1 mil for making the WCF, 500k for 30+% defensive rebounding rate, 500k for 65+% free throw shooting.
He's rebounded that well once and never shot better than 56% from the line.
Overheard in James family home after Trump's tweet: “He got me,” LeBron said of Trump's attack over him. "That f*ing Bum made me look so fucking smart and awesome. More people will say I'm a better MAN than MJ now...." LeBron added, “He’s so dumb,” repeating it four times. He then said he wanted to add Trump to the list of people he ignores on twitter this summer.
He's gonna start. We don't have enough 3/4s to start over him. He'll probably get most of his run with Chris, probably 60-40 with Chris-James. We had Ryan Anderson guarding Steph Curry at times last year and we still won 60 games. I'll take it.

losing ariza sucked, but under no circumstance should we be paying anywhere near 15 million for him. Luc also didn't play a ton in the playoffs and we did ok without him, offensively he brings almost nothing to the table. I think Melo for the MINIMUM is more than good to replace that.
