The Flash

Aquaman

Green Lantern

Tao Okamoto as Mercy Graves

Viggo Mortensen as General Zod

Lena Headley as Faora

Robert Maillet as Non

The Batman(in my version, The Batman comes after Man Of Steel, this will be about how The Joker and Harley Quinn kills Jason Todd, yes both Joker and Harley kill Jason. It’s important that everyone realizes Harley is a villain and not a anti-hero)

Karl Urban as Batman/Bruce Wayne

Nick Nolte as Rupert Thorne

Brad Dourif as Joe Chill

World’s Finest(This is not BVS this is World’s Finest. This is not a dumbed down fight scene just to kiss Frank Miller’s ass to adapt the most overrated comic.

5 winners and 3 losers in NBA free agency so far

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images

Here are our early winners and losers in NBA free agency so far.

The NBA wasted zero time getting the free agency bonanza going this year. Lonzo Ball’s $85 million deal with the Chicago Bulls via a sign-and-trade was announced the moment the moratorium period opened on Monday at 6 p.m. ET. That set the tone for a wild day of transactions that saw a large percentage of the league’s free agents give their commitments on day one.

The champion Bucks brought back a key piece on a bargain deal in Bobby Portis, but lost out on P.J. Tucker when he signed wit the Heat. The Phoenix Suns locked up Chris Paul and re-signed Cameron Payne. The Los Angeles Lakers brought back many old friends — Dwight Howard and Trevor Ariza included — as they look to remake the bench. Kawhi Leonard, the top free agent in this year’s class, remains unsigned, but all indications are he’ll eventually re-sign with the Clippers.

Check out our running list of every signing in NBA free agency here. Here are five winners and three losers that stood out from day one.

2021 NBA free agency winners

Miami Heat

The Heat were the most active team on day one of free agency. Let’s run down the moves:

Starting with the headliner: Kyle Lowry is on his way to Miami on a three-year, $90 million deal.

Jimmy Butler is signing a four-year, $184 million extension that will pay him more than $50 million per year in his age-36 season.

Duncan Robinson is staying with the Heat on a five-year, $90 million deal

PJ Tucker is coming to the Heat fresh off a championship run with the Bucks. He signed for two years, $15 million with a player option on the second season.

Lowry is still one of the better point guards in the game even at 35 years old, and he immediately gives the Heat another trusted weapon on both ends of the floor. His pull-up shooting should add some needed juice to the offense, and you already know Erik Spoelstra is going to deeply appreciate every charge. Tucker is another defensive ace they can go to in the toughest playoff matchups. The Heat (probably) aren’t getting swept out of the first round this year.

Yes, it’s a lot of money for Robinson and Butler, but they had to be kept long-term. The league keeps waiting for Butler to fall off after such a heavy minutes load, but he was still excellent last season. Robinson is an amazing shooter and amazing shooters get paid. The Heat feel like they will be a factor in the East again even if they remain a cut below the Bucks and Nets.

Chicago Bulls

The Bulls have missed the playoffs the last four seasons since trading Butler, but there’s no more excuses this year. Chicago felt pressure to make a postseason run with Zach LaVine entering the last year of his contract and with the franchise trading two first round draft picks for Nikola Vucevic mid-season. The Bulls still needed another major talent infusion to have a chance to shoot up the standings, and it feels like they got one on day one:

Lonzo Ball and the Chicago Bulls have agreed to a four-year, $85 million deal in a sign-and-trade agreement, according to Woj. Garrett Temple, Tomas Satoransky, and a second round pick are reportedly going to New Orleans in the deal, per Shams.

Alex Caruso is signing with the Bulls for four years, $37 million, per Woj.

Ball will immediately be the best passer on the Bulls. He also gives the team a stout defender on the perimeter, a high-volume three-point shooter, and a tempo-pusher who loves throwing deep outlet passes in transition.

Caruso brings ferocious on-ball defense, which will be a huge help for a Bulls team that often saw its guards get roasted on that end last season. He’ll need to prove he can score after averaging only about six points per game over the last two seasons, but he did hit 40 percent of his threes on low volume last year while also ranking in the 82nd percentile for rim attempts at his position, per Cleaning the Glass.

The Bulls lost Daniel Theis to Houston in addition to Satoransky and Temple to New Orleans, but this is the sort of talent infusion they needed. Front office boss Arturas Karnisovas has fully put his stamp on the team.

Chris Paul’s bank account

Chris Paul had made $300 million in NBA contracts before entering free agency again this year at age-36. He was always going to cash in again after helping lead the Phoenix Suns on an inspired run to the NBA Finals in his debut season with the team, and that happened in a big way.

Paul is signing a four-year extension worth up to $120 million. The third year of the deal is reportedly a partial guarantee, while the fourth year is unguaranteed. If Paul finishes out the deal, he’ll be making $30 million per year at age-40.

Paul’s career earnings if he finishes out this contact would be $420 million. Not bad work if you can get it.

David Nwaba

The headline names always get the most coverage in free agency, but sometimes the best stories come from the role players only hardcore fans have heard of. David Nwaba is an example of that after he signed a three-year, $15 million deal with a team option on the final season.

Nwaba’s path to the NBA is wild. He started his career at the DII level, transferred to a junior college, and then found a home at Cal Poly, a low-major DI school. Nwaba went undrafted but grinded his way into an NBA opportunity on the Lakers’ G League team. After the Lakers, he had stints with the Bulls, Cavs, and Nets. His tenure in Brooklyn ended with a torn Achilles.

A torn Achilles is the type of injury that could end the NBA career of a player on the fringes of the league, but it didn’t stop Nwaba. He returned to play 30 games for the Rockets last year and looked fully healthy in showing off his signature brand of energetic defense. The Rockets liked him enough to give him $10 million guaranteed with the potential to reach $15 million. That’s life changing money for a player who has had to bust his ass for every opportunity to this point in his career.

Cheers to Nwaba for finally securing a multi-year deal and a nice bag.

Lakers exes

The Lakers brought back a lot of old friends on day one of free agency. Let’s run down the list:

Dwight Howard is back

Trevor Ariza is back

Wayne Ellington is back

It’s Howard’s third stint back with the team. Ariza hasn’t been a Laker since his breakout role player days on the team that reached the NBA Finals in 2008 and won it all in 2009. Ellington hasn’t been on the team since 2014-2015, which was Kobe Bryant’s penultimate season. LA also signed Kent Bazemore away from the Warriors.

Former Lakers had a good run in free agency, too, with Alex Caruso signing for the midlevel exception and Reggie Bullock netting $30 million.

2021 NBA free agency losers

Dennis Schröder

While the rest of the big name point guards went off the board in day one, Schröder stayed on the market. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, and there’s no doubt Schröder will sign a contract soon. It just won’t be for the reported $84 million the Lakers offered him in-season.

Schröder initially thought he could get $100-$120 million on the open market when he rejected the Lakers’ big offer. Instead, he had a rough end of the season and struggled in LA’s first round playoff loss to the Suns. The Lakers were ready to move on, and his market around the league was quiet enough for him to go unsigned through the first day.

Schröder will still get a nice deal, but he’s not getting nearly as much money as he turned down a few months ago. File this under ‘when betting on yourself goes wrong.’

The Knicks’ cap space creativity

The Knicks reportedly had as much cap space as any team in the league upon entering free agency. It felt like New York could finally be a free agency juggernaut coming off a shocking run to the No. 4 seed in the East last season, but they ended up using their money to bring back most of their own guys.

The Knicks locked up Derrick Rose to a $43 million deal over three years

Nerlens Noel is coming back on a $30 million deal

Alec Burks is also getting $30 million for three years

Each of these players was on a bargain contract last year. It’s nice that they were rewarded for their contributions to a winning team, but it feels like the Knicks could have dreamed bigger. It also stings that Reggie Bullock, a starter on last year’s squad, left for Dallas.

The Knicks did make a big move signing Evan Fournier to a $78 million deal. He will definitely provide some offensive punch the team was missing last season. In general, though, the Knicks’ moves on day one of free agency feel a little underwhelming.

Teams feeling pressure to win that need more moves

There is a long way to go in this offseason, but some teams are clearly feeling more pressure to win than others. A few of those teams still have a lot more work to do.

The Trail Blazers made a big move by signing Norman Powell to a five-year, $90 million deal. Powell was a top-10 free agent on the market, but he was also on Portland when they lost in the playoffs to the Jamal Murray-less Nuggets in the first round. Damian Lillard has been adamant he wants to see the Blazers swing for the fences to win now, and that hasn’t happened just yet.

The Pelicans also need to bolster the roster around a reportedly unhappy Zion Williamson this offseason. They are off to a questionable start: losing Lonzo hurts, but they recovered by bringing in Devonte’ Graham. Graham’s shooting will play nicely next to Williamson, but it feels like a talent downgrade in a vacuum. They also had to give up a lottery-protected first round pick to get Charlotte to avoid matching. New Orleans still has a lot of work to do.

The Mavericks had a good start to free agency by bringing back Tim Hardaway Jr., and signing Reggie Bullock and Sterling Brown. It feels like they still need a big move though and it’s hard to see where it comes from right now.

What is the Raptors’ plan for next year? Toronto had cap space coming into free agency, and the only move they made on day one was resigning Gary Trent Jr. to a $54 million deal. Losing Lowry, the greatest player in franchise history, is a huge bummer. Are the Raps playing for a lottery pick next year? Are they playing to sneak into the playoffs? Either way, the upside of this roster doesn’t feel particularly high.

We’ll keep you updated on every signing here. Happy free agency.

Sensor Sweep: Cosmic Horror, Tom Barber, Casino Royale, David C. Smith

Horror (Bloody Disgusting): The phrase “cosmic horror” conjures up images of massive tentacled beasts that defy all aspects of human understanding. Monsters created by author H.P. Lovecraft, such as Cthulhu, Dagon, and Shub-Niggurath, drive those that see them into madness, driven insane by their pure incomprehensibility. Their massive size, many limbs, innumerable eyeballs, and unnatural forms only amplify their horrific nature, making humans realize their insignificance in the universe. It is a genre that allows for speculation and questions about what it means to be human, especially in the face of these monsters.

RPG (Brain Leakage): I was introduced to D&D in 1994, during my freshman year of high school. I had no idea what to expect going in. The sum total of my exposure to D&D up to that point was vague memories of the old cartoon, half-remembered rumors about the Satanic Panic of the 1980’s, and multiple viewings of Charles Band’s glorious, b-movie masterpiece, The Dungeonmaster.

Art (The Silver Key): Last week I had the pleasure of meeting a sword-and-sorcery legend: The talented Tom Barber, perhaps best known for his illustrations of Zebra paperbacks in the 1970s, including a Robert E. Howard title (Black Vulmea’s Vengeance), several Talbot Mundy reprints, and a trio of stunning covers for a Weird Tales paperback revival edited by the late great Lin Carter.

Edgar Rice Burroughs (Recoverings): With his hopes of entering the hallowed ranks of the slicks dashed, Ed turned the book over to Munsey and McClurg. Bray was still at McClurg, but Davis was gone and his replacement was Matthew White, 69 years old and the editor for Argosy since 1886. White wanted a shorter title than The War Chief of the Apaches, and suggested, “Apache,” “The Big Chief,” or “The Good Indian.” “Apache” might have confused book buyers into thinking that it was about the notorious Parisian Apaches, muggers and criminal gangsters of Europe. Ed wasn’t happy with any of the alternate titles, for good reason, and The War Chief was finally settled on.

Clark Ashton Smith (DMR Books): Fans of Clark Ashton Smith have been waiting a long time for a collection of his stories set in the fictional medieval French province of Averoigne. There have been many attempts to collect all 11 stories over the decades, but none of them were able to get off the ground until recently.

Gaming (Greyhawkery): Greetings Greyhawk enthusiasts! Today’s topic comes with a map of the ENTIRE Flanaess. I was mulling over a subject while trying to banish thoughts of not being at Gen Con 2019 and then it dawned on me, how about a “What If” scenario? I’ve done similar premises in the past, it’s fun to tinker with world-wide events and what was more game changing to the World of Greyhawk than the 2E Greyhawk Wars! For those who don’t know the events an geo-political changes that happen post-wars and through 591 CY then check out this timeline. Surprisingly the “Greyhawk Wars occurred in a short span (582-584).

Gaming (Hack Slash Master): I’ve run. . . a lot of high-level games. The first high-level campaign I ran started in 1984, and involved going through the entire Temple of Elemental Evil and environs in a second edition campaign. I’ve run several high level 5th edition campaigns, including 17 levels of Horde of the Dragon Queen, 1st edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragons to level 11/12, Pathfinder and 3rd edition, ranging up to levels around 14. My average campaign length is about 50 games, which is approximately 18 months of play.

Westerns (Brian Niemeier): If you want sterling example of top-down social engineering, look no further than the death of the western. The western genre dominated novels, magazines, comics, and movies for decades. Contrary to common misconceptions, westerns never faded in popularity. One day, the word came down that westerns were over. These days, this once noble genre is a haven for vanity projects by over-the-hill actors. Our overlords hate the western. Gary Cooper’s iconic 1952 film High Noon shows why.

Cinema (Rough Edges): I suspect this is one of those love-it-or-hate-it movies. I love it. THE MAN WHO KILLED HITLER AND THEN THE BIGFOOT has such a goofy title that you really don’t know what to expect, and it asks the viewer to accept a lot of odd things that are played with an absolutely straight face, but for me, it works.

Ian Fleming (M Porcius): The first James Bond novel, Casino Royale, was published in 1953; I’m reading a scan of a paperback published in 1983 by Berkley. This isn’t one of the books I tackled as a child, and the only Casino Royale film of which I am aware is the spoof one starring Barbara Bouchet (you loved her in The Red Queen Kills Seven Times), so I have no idea what the plot of this thing is going to entail.

Comic Books (Porpor Books): In the mid-80s, Eclipse Comics got the rights to reproduce comics from early 80s UK titles, including Warrior. One memorable Warrior entry was ‘Spawn from Hell’s Pit’, the inaugural episode of ‘Father Shandor: Demon Stalker’ which debuted in the very first issue of Warrior in 1982.

Writing (Pulprev): Much of modern entertainment is a garbage fire.

Many male characters are weak, wimpy and wishy-washy. They exist not as men in their own right, but simply to make the designed Strong Female Character look even more powerful when contrasted against their incompetence. Shounen protagonists inevitably run away screaming at the first signs of romance and emotional intimacy, those that aren’t blank slates for the audience to project themselves into.

Comic Books (Bookgasm): If you grew up in the ’80s, once you hit puberty and got over the superhero comics that are flooding the big screen, the only magazine left on the rack was Marvel’s gory, black and white, comic-code free “Savage Sword of Conan.” Those busty wenches and barbarians were everywhere in the 1980’s – from album covers to conversion vans. It seems like a different world now.

Fiction (Smashpages): Will Murray has long been a journalist for Starlog and other publications, but he’s best known as one of the great pulp historians. Murray’s been involved with the recent reprints of Doc Savage, The Shadow and other characters. A few years ago, Murray had two major books published, Writings in Bronze, which collected a lot of his writings about Doc Savage and Lester Dent, and Wordslingers, a book about the pulp Westerns, and more broadly, about what the Western genre was and continues to mean.

Robert Heinlein (Tip the Wink): Tunnel In the Sky by Robert A. Heinlein. Scribner’s & Sons, 1955. Juvenile novel # 9 Published in both hardcover and paperback that year by Scribner’s as part of the Heinlein juvenile series.

The Plot BACKGROUND: The novel is set in the future, when overpopulation on Earth has been lessened after the invention of teleportation, called the “Ramsbotham jump”, which is used to send Earth’s excess population to colonize other planets. However, the costs of operating the device mean that the colonies are isolated from Earth until they can produce goods to justify two-way trade.

Author Interview (DMR Books): David C. Smith is one of the most well-respected sword and sorcery authors from the ‘70s. He’s also been a friend and supporter of DMR Books since the beginning, when he wrote the introduction for our very first release, Swords of Steel. He has a brand new story in our brand new anthology Warlords, Warlocks & Witches, so I thought this would be a good time to learn more about his career, as well as his current endeavors (which will be covered in part two tomorrow).
