2018 NBA OFFSEASON

it does seem odd.......

ESPN story on SI's Lee Jenkins joining the Clippers front office. Jenkins tells ESPN: "This team is interested not just in what players do but who they are -- how they're wired, how they're motivated -- and that's an area I love to explore." https://t.co/RVawHbc0Yp

all their press releases are gonna be like 5000 words now

lol

seems like the clippers are thinking "wouldn't it be cool if a journalist were embedded within a team" but given that why would anyone be motivated to tell him anything?

it sounds like hes part of some mindfucking scheme

lol poly otm

yeah it could just be some halfassed myers-briggs stuff

Kevin Durant was joking around about joining the Rams ... I like that even in a football scenario he'd prefer to go to the most talented team

are the rams the best team now? thats rude to move to LA then suddenly be good

they're a chic pick to win this year. if they add durant then forget about it!

imagine him getting tackled lol my god

he'd look hilarious in a uniform

prob wouldnt look too far off from a young randy moss

Philadelphia has hired Elton Brand as general manager, league sources tell ESPN. Brand will be elevated from VP of Basketball Operations. He made strong impression on ownership and Brett Brown in process, beating out several inside and outside candidates.

damn!

congrats elton!

"You must have arms this long [Elton spreads his arms half a city block] to sign with the Sixers."

always liked him but i hope he is a bad gm hehe

It was just 2 years and 11 days ago that the #Sixers signed Elton Brand as a PLAYER. Now he's their general manager for one of the most exciting periods in franchise history.

the fact that they stayed internal suggests that brett brown is going to keep having a lot of power imo

It also suggests all future hires will have one syllable last names starting with Br.

big baller Brand

SIRENS VIA SHAMS

Jimmy Butler has requested a trade from the Minnesota Timberwolves, league sources tell me and @JonKrawczynski. Butler has given Minnesota a list of one-to-three teams with whom he's open to signing extension, in anticipation of trade

SIRENS VIA SHAMS

dubs dubs dubs dubs

lol yesss. jimy for iggy straight up

I hope he wants to go back to the Bulls

trade him for Lavine and Dunn haha

(I like Dunn. Lavine...not so much)

Jazz seem like a perfect fit

a list of 1-3 teams??? you mean a list of 3 teams

he may have only given 1 team name but they need to say 3 to have some leverage i imagine?

Woj reporting Nets, Clips and Knicks

pels would be intersting

oh maybe he wants to be The Guy then

they can all offer him a ton of money too.

he deosnt fit what the nets are trying to do

that's a really gross list

2 cursed teams and a smart team that's not in the right phase

but he can build his BRAND in the BIG MARKETS barf

honestly if i'm the wolves there are some appealing deals to be made with those teams.

🤦🏽‍♂️

are there?

sure. i'd like to get pat beverly on their team (along with other stuff). i'd like to steal kevin knox from the knicks.

the nets....maybe not.

beverlys great but the wolves gotta be looking to get players thatre on kats timeline here

true. i think it's a balance. their team gets real expensive when they sign kat. they need some affordable dudes who can play in the playoffs.

btw the internet is aflame this jimmy + kyrie on the knicks next year rumor, lol what a dumbass plan have u seen the knicks work (wld not put it past kyrie to come up with such a plan)

*if they won a ring with the knicks they wld be utter gods in ny 4 life

lol if you think kat is so soft he cant handle the likes of jimmy butler then wait til he becomes teammates with pat bev
