    Maybe so, it will be interesting what he says about his final two choices though. Anyway it looks like a done deal now according to his agent. I'll voice another bold opinion right now. If AD is healthy, Davis and Drummond have the potential to be the best Center/Power forward duo in the history of the NBA.

    The details of whatever they offered him is going to come out in a few days, maybe you are correct maybe not. It's a moot point now, it would still be interesting to see what their offer was.

    Absolutely did, haven't back pedaled on anything one bit. Explained my rationale several times, I don't care about being wrong, I say what I think.

    Since we’re on the topic of some thinking Boston had a chance of signing Drummond ... thought this was an absolutely hilarious headline :D

    @Slick2021 was wrong, it's ok, we've all been wrong sometimes.

    But I think saying he was going to the C Bags of all teams is getting you extra s*** for it lol

    if you're gonna come out and make a straight up bold prediction like "_______ is for sure going to _______," then expect to get sh** if you're wrong

    just like all those morons with "insider info" on twitter who were tweeting the entire 2019 offseason that kawhi was going to sign with the lakers

    Doesn't bother me at all, I'm too old to care about other folks opinions. Can't question my Lakerdom, I was a fan before Magic got drafted.

    i think its more that you made others feel like fools for not agreeing with you. and kept being persistent that it was essentially boston or bust.

    like all things in life, its often not what you say, but how you say it

    Man I hope not. That Blazers team should have beaten Shaq and Kobe and were one amazing lob away from doing so.

    If he had said he was going to Barca, there would have been zero backlash. Zero.

    No, not close really.

    The Admiral + Duncan

    AD is in that class, but Drummond is not.

    Should doesn't mean anything in reality. Lakers ended up finishing that team with 7 straight wins and 3 series wins. 12-3 against the Trail Spenders.

    I disagree but it would take time together to prove it. I have to admit that I was never a fan of David Robinson

    there was a report that Otto will not be bought out, the Magic plan to keep him, but it would make sense for them to dump him

    Porter was moved to the Orlando Magic as part of the Nikola Vucevic trade. He's owed $28.4 million this year and is on an expiring deal. That's fairly steep for a team that is surely going to tank now, so there's a good chance that the combo forward gets bought out.

    Porter Jr getting bought out would be a big deal.
