I would say roughly yes. A lot of Kyrie’s success is due to sharing the court with Lebron. Look at how much more efficient of a player that he has been since Lebron rejoined the Cavs (at least offensively, he’s still a liability on D). I’m sure you went to basketball-reference.com too but stopped after you saw his…

Wait....are you apportioning a player’s salary to their PPG?? I cannot tell if this is complete ignorance, or very dedicated trolling.

Because you have a situation where because of the artificial max cap you have borderline all-star types earning basically the same as game changing franchise cornerstones.

In a truly open league with no salary cap/tax LeBron would get at least 50 million a year and probably more in salary alone. Just because he’s making millions doesn’t mean he isn’t also underpaid.

The best players earning the most money =/= the best players earning the money they’re worth. This gets them closer.

As it should. Not that anyone was hurting but the last few deals have been way too friendly to the mid-tier guys and pretty good “stars”. Meanwhile what Lebron’s been paid vs. what he’d have made on an open market probably amounts to a couple of franchises.

The player would (presumably) refuse so as not to participate in acts that are blatantly racist, viewing black people as inferior. Now replace “racist” with “sexist” and “black people” with “women”.

I’ll admit I began to judge you as I started to read your comment, then I really judged you after I finished it.

Don’t you mean knee-junk reaction?

I love how the Nets bench has to restrain themselves out of respect for the corpse of Lopez.

So there was a cross dressing component during my frat’s Hell Week bullshit. Keep in mind that, at this point in my life, I was a medium douchey, half-libertarian lax bro from a rich suburb (and also keep in mind this was circa 94) so I went into the whole ordeal with the attitude that “This will be a little…

It’s to humiliate the guy

That’s just Draymond’s knee-jerk reaction, though.

Of course Durant is having a career year; what am I, simple?

Bridezilla will take my beard off my cold dead face. you can tell your groomsmen / maids what to wear but you ask them to trim, not get rid of, a defining facial feature.

Best way to keep a Baptist from drinking all your booze... invite two of them.

Waverly and Blair were tied at 50 with seconds remaining

nice try but the Twins would never let a rookie play all 162 games. gotta wait until the service time deadline to get that extra year of team control.
