I realize that player control options like restricted free agency and bird rights are looked down upon, but if the alternative is stuff like this I think I’m actually cool with it? I genuinely miss superstars that were loyal to one team, and I hate seeing teams like the Cavs give Lebron whatever he wants and then get…

That or just hold off on trades until the contracts are set in stone right? Like I feel bad that the Spurs are getting screwed but I feel like teams should just verbally agree to trades and then formally process them once the moratorium is up.

A rich white man cheating the system in order to save money? Well I’ll be damned!

Fuck our species man, we’ve been here 200,000 years and we still are stealing people’s puppies. Put us all right into the trash can

I wasn’t even planning on watching the derby tonight until I saw Vlad Jr. was going for 29 again, and by the time the tiebreakers started I couldn’t even take a minute to take a piss. That might’ve nudged out Hamilton’s round of 29 as the greatest derby moment I’ve ever seen.

I’m not sure if it’s possible to have all three unless the owners are willing to go deep into the tax for this team. If so, I could see Detroit sending Reggie Jackson, Galloway, Maker and Doumbouya plus a pick or two for Russell. Jackson and Galloway are expiring deals, and they get a look at Maker and Doumbouya for a…

Exactly, future cap space is pointless when nobody wants to live in your city and future picks are pointless if you pick the wrong guy every time. Let’s grab him and see what happens!

I’m pretty sure OKC replacing the least movable contract in the sport with the second-least movable contract in the sport is not what they are going for with a Westbrook trade. Is your brother GM Doc Rivers?

I’m all in with my Pistons grabbing Westbrook. We are already capped out and shitty, at least a Blake-Russ combo would be good on paper and interesting to watch.

Yeah, if you watch the replay you can see Marisnick hits Lucroy with his own head, not his shoulder, so it’s pretty obvious he wasn’t trying to blow him up. He will be suspended because Lucroy got injured, it sucks but I doubt he will complain about it too much.

It’s not Ortiz’s cousin, the mastermind’s cousin was a friend of Ortiz and was out with him that night. The cousin probably just owed money to his family member in the cartel, impossible to know if it was clean or dirty.

He’s really trying to make that jump from locker room cancer to the elite “corporate cancer” club.

This is absolutely disgusting. As a man, it’s hard to even get mad at being stereotyped as a mindless sex freak when you realize that women have to deal with assholes like this guy.

In a similar vein, I have recently been referring to Enes Kanter as “Z-Bo with the ability to jump”

Everyone talks about Kobe stealing everything from MJ. Nobody talks about Durant stealing the Dirk fader.

The only thing that snags this scenario is Russell though, unless I’m mistaken you can’t trade a restricted free agent signing until December 15th, so they would have to wait until then to make this deal. The only way around it would be for Russell to forgo an offer sheet with another team and sign his qualifying…

I hate to burst your bubble, but that’s actually called bursting your bubbles.

I understand completely, due to an allegation of dipping my nuts in the owner’s soup for making margaritas ELEVEN ENTIRE DOLLARS I have recently been blackballed from my local restaurant.

At what point do we scrap this experiment, amputate his arm and fashion a sort of basketball catapult for him to use?

Harden doing more on the offensive end doesn’t excuse the fact that he’s a sieve on defense, plus his usage rating is almost 10% higher than Giannis so his points scored per game is kinda inflated. In a normal year Harden would’ve definitely won but it just worked out that the only other player in consideration this…
