    It’s probably a better outcome for the Clippers, they can insert a more rounded defensive player. Beal looks done.

    As for AD, someone will go for him and the 60 games he is healthy, he’ll be a force. The guys still a beast.

    Man, I can’t get over how bad Dallas fumbled. They traded all their draft picks to put a team around Luka, then they traded or let go some of those pieces like Brunson, Grimes and Porzingis for not much. After a finals appearance they then trade Luka. Then are looking to trade the All NBA guy they got for him at his lowest value.

    This will set them back half a decade. It’s awful stuff. They better hope Flagg pans out as a top 10 player otherwise it’s bad news bears over there.

    It has to be the owner, he seems like a guy who just doesn't want to pay.

    I didn’t see this posted yet, if true wow



    I’ve also seen multiple people say the last couple days that Nico should have been fired the second he proposed trading Luka, and yeah, I kind of agree with that. Also agree with this, sometimes we simply get lucky

    Stein on AD
    We've discussed Heat. Bulls has been mentioned for years as a hypothetical return home. I've seen Pacers floated as an option but they're too cheap. The fan trade I've seen that makes the most sense to me is Sacramento. He covers for Sabonis inability to defend. They have a plethora of guards. LaVine for AD. I think it balances both teams. Both teams are dumb so they won't do it.

    if Sac is looking at blowing things up, I'm not sure I see the fit. Nobody is giving up big bucks for a cripple. Except Nico.

    never thought we'd be scammers, man. Ouch.

    in addition to being laughed off the phone, I'm thinking there's no way the money works on that one.

    But we have a log jam at the forward position. Not sure I see it being the most amazing idea even if we could work a deal out.

    Might need to check on your office, coach. Might already be empty.

    If they do end up firing him man what a classless way to set it up. Some organizations are really trash
