Breaking down five overreactions from the 2018 NBA offseason that are simply false and will prove to be wrong
The 2018 NBA offseason – which includes, in this instance, the NBA Draft and Free Agency – perhaps wasn’t the fireworks and as chaotic as many expected it to be, but it would be insane to call in a bust.
In the end, we still saw Kawhi Leonard, DeMar DeRozan, DeMarcus Cousins and LeBron James switch jerseys. Those are four big names that changed teams this summer. Even if not much else took place, that in itself is something that almost never happens in any other offseason.
And with each of these big moves, there are some overreactions. It’s the environment that we live in now. If something big happens, there needs to be a take almost simultaneously. And sometimes those takes aren’t great and not as thought out as they should be.
With that in mind, we’re going to explore five overreactions from this summer that will prove to be false and prove some very smart talking heads wrong.
