Embiid should focus less on LaVar Ball and more on trying to play at least 50 games.

I don’t know who originally said it, but Simmons used to repeat it.

He clearly thinks the position is unnecessary. Perhaps he thinks he could be a good decision maker himself?

I was in the camp that thought LeBron would end his career in Cleveland, but now I really hope he leaves. I know that would end up punishing Cavs fans, but that’s an unfortunate side effect of punishing Gilbert.

I don’t know the reason, but I loved it. Awesome tweet.

Actually, neither of you do.

Come up with a reasonable alternative, then, instead of just bitching about how the current CBA sucks.

No, no it’s not.

Ouch. Not a Derrick Rose fan, I’m guessing?

I don’t buy it.

Congrats to Raptors fans. Enjoy the next 3 years of seeing Lowry have diarrhea in his shorts the moment the playoffs start, and knowing that he’s being paid $30+ million for the privilege.

Since I’m not a fan of those teams, it’s hard for me to know from experience. But I personally feel it’s the worst place to be.

Why don’t teams just reveal the truth then? Obviously, the Pacers wouldn’t reveal the full inner workings of negotiations, but if the Celtics supposed offer isn’t true, then Pritchard should just come out and stop the rumors in their tracks.

At what point does the suckiness of the East start becoming a narrative when talking about LeBron’s consecutive Finals streak, which is almost certain to hit 8 next year?

Good move by Danny Ainge on sitting on his stockpile of assets.

Finally! It’s about time the Wolves got off the Rubio train.

I actually feel sorry for Knicks fans.

Durant leaving had a lot more to do with him wanting to play with the Warriors than him wanting to get away from Westbrook.

This is gonna be one of those awards isn’t it? Where we look back on it 5 or 10 years from now and go, “Oh yeah, that was the time Malcolm Brogdon won Rookie of the Year. I forgot that happened.”

But not in the cultured, sophisticated British sense. In the, “I’m really old and sound like I could die any moment,” kind of way.
