Between the proposed Carmelo trade and the actual Cousins trade, I’m honestly stunned at how someone this unqualified can somehow wind up with any authority at all, much less call the shots for an NBA franch.....(remembers who the president is, sits down, shuts up).

New York offered Carmelo and Sasha Vujacic to the Clippers in exchange for Jamal Crawford, Paul Pierce and Austin Rivers, a deal to which Rivers ultimately said no.

The other members of the team felt it was because he went to Duke.

I am SHOCKED that the Clippers hate Rivers.

Celebrities, they’re just like us.

This will either be a fun pairing or a total disaster

Jackson had refused to work out for the Celtics unless they guaranteed him they would draft him at No. 3.

My team traded everyone’s favorite superstar for an unproven 2nd year player, a torn ACL, a 7 ft finnish guy that can’t play defense, and $3.5 million in cash.

Is this the point Gar Forman rips off the mask, and we find out he’s been David Kahn all along?

Buddy of mine said it’s time for Phil Jackson to go to a farm upstate and chase triangles in a field all day.

As great as PJ was as a coach, he was no Chuck Daley, who too a rag tag group of players (including one college kid!) and led them to an improbable gold medal in 1992

“I think we know what we’re doing.”

May as well trade him, they got Noah for the next three years locking down the center position.

the best outcome is the amtrak summer of doom reaches critical mass and opens a black hole in penn station that swallows the dolan family

Its twelve dimensional chess guys. Draft 4th. Pick Kristaps. Develop him for a couple years. Trade him for 3rd pick. Develop him. Repeat until you have the first pick during the year LeBron James Jr. declares

Yes.

Best outcome here is that they trade Kristaps but end up stuck with Melo, right?

Fultz expected to go #1

Sticking it to the Jets is more of a Sharks thing though.
