Saw somewhere that maybe Ballmer leaked all this to try to get the league to rescind Kawhi's contract lol.
No, it's not? Unless I'm missing something. What Ballmer/Kawhi did broke league rules, not actual laws. It's not legal blackmail to say I'm not...
Side note - the cope from Raptors fans that Kawhi would have re-signed if not for this shady stuff by Balmer is funny. He was never staying in...
I don't think Ant is signing up to come play with Luka. He probably sees Luka as a peer that he wants to prove he's better than. I'm looking at...
The Spurs were popular in France because of Parker and Parker has been a mentor to a lot of these younger French guys coming into the league,...
I don't know about the Rui for Monk part. We'd all of a sudden only have two forwards (Luka and LeBron) that you can confidently say are good for...
For me it boils down to one question: if they get a trade offer in December to bring in a starting caliber player that addresses a need, do they...
Where is the quote from? Said it before, but I hate the bolded. It's basically admitting we're not going to trade our expirings for someone who...
Not interested in Austin for Zion. I am interested in Zion as a buy-low 2nd star candidate after LeBron retires/moves on to pair with Luka and...
Yeah I have no idea what they're doing. They think they need a PG, but this is a team with Sabonis, DeRozan and Lavine. Just let those guys be...
I'm confident Rui and his team will realize the grass isn't always greener, especially after having spent the first few years of his career with...
They were both flawed. Shaq was incredibly immature and thin-skinned, and young Kobe was pretty selfish and dismissive of his teammates. But...
I don't know where people are getting this idea that it's a long season so who cares who we start in October. Look at the teams that have been...
I really don't see the point of "continuity" if we know another lineup doesn't make as much sense. Last regular season the LeBron/Luka/Rui/Austin...
LFR had a pod all about Austin and made a good point - he's already one of the best undrafted players ever. Ben Wallace is the best undrafted NBA...
I think it's tricky because he's purely a catch and shoot guy. Austin's three point attempts have more than doubled since the 2023 season despite...
I've been higher on Wiggins than most, but always to play WITH Rui and not in exchange for him. The appeal of Wiggins for me was having a trio of...
If we can't get anything else at the deadline with Gabe + Kleber + Knecht, I'd consider Gabe + Kleber and no draft capital for KCP. KCP certainly...
It all comes down to matchup resilience for Austin. We know he can put up really nice regular season numbers. That's great. But can he a...
Opening night at home against the Warriors. Christmas day at home against the Rockets. Works for me!
