again, it's about protections. even if they're just both top-5 protected, i'm ok with it. as much as i'm not as bullish on either lebron or...
yeah, ok, so...re-do the math? only a kyrie/harris for russ deal makes lebron's salary moot save lux tax issues. what we pick up in trade...
wait--i'm confused as to how byron scott just became norm nixon? is it because lt is a grandpa? or am i the grandpa? what's happening?
because i'm bored, i'll add to the (probably false) intrigue: based on marks's pedigree and every move he made prior to the durant/kyrie signing,...
you're assuming a joe harris/kyrie deal. if that's the case, lebron will just extend at his max. if we keep russ or he's dealt for expirings,...
yeah, the idea that irving was like, "ok, we're good again" seems pretty far-fetched. if you value the clear cap, wouldn't you rather take an...
wasn't the word today that kyrie is also still on the outs with management? silver just needs to get this moving. talk to the teams that want...
if lebron was only about the maximum money, he would have already signed an extension. players have proved over and over again they can get...
lol "are you willing to box out even if you're not going to get the rebound?"
yeah, i'm almost ALWAYS against owners, but this situation is a bit out of hand. a player just starting on a long extension asking for the...
the problem is "demand" really can't be proven, right? people will find ways to demand out without demanding out. i wonder if there would be a...
i think the next cba will have this at the top of its list. i have no idea how to write a rule that's fair to players and owners, though....
also why i wasn't crazy about getting kyrie, tbh. look at the evidence--these guys aren't good for you.
yeah, unfortunately now boston has all the leverage, and they won't have to give up much past brown to get kd.
i've stopped guessing at what's in kyrie's head. i could just as easily see him staying and not really caring if they win or lose or whatever.
nash was such weird hire, imo. and after atkinson was unfairly dumped. the whole thing over there sort of went haywire once they decided on the...
[ATTACH] hmph. i wouldn't have guessed he'd get a deal, tbh.
totally agree. people's reverence for him was built on mchale's nepotism, and then a single lucky trade that was founded upon the assets gained...
this is what i keep saying. i'm not even sure it's about us convincing him to take less--it's about a situation unfolding in which it makes sense...
i honestly can't believe he got a contract offer. of course it was sacramento. if you asked me which franchise's front office definitely doesn't...
