2019 nba OFFSEASON news, rumors, drama, and recriminations

also reminded on Twitter that Jerry West wanted to return to the Lakers after GSW but Jeannie didn't think it fit with Magic and Pelinka's "vision" lol

dwight is available i hear

they are waiving Dwight I think

the fallout in the Lakers camp is going to be max drama I love it

All the information that leaked from Magic’s conversations with Kawhi team didn’t help the Lakers case.

HAHAHAHA STILL HAPPY YOU WAIVED THAT TRADE KICKER AD???

lol

He can rescind that offer to do that no?

OKC offered Westbrook and PG-13 to the Raptors with Siakam as the centerpiece of an “asset-crippling deal,” but Toronto turned it down, per @wojespn pic.twitter.com/UA2X9rEXKB

ESPN story on OKC’s Sam Presti leveraging the Clippers and Raptors on a Paul George trade, a deal ultimately dictating the balance of power in the NBA. https://t.co/Etm0YwVLmB

lol

I woke up to the news that Kawhi is Masai is still the GM so I’m happy.

this is the nuttiest offseason in nba history

this is absurrrd

lol drake forever

this is also...not great for the nuggets

they'll be fine

This has been crazy. Can’t wait for the season to start now!

The West is just insane now.

there are a lot of good players but are there a lot of good teams idk

the clippers look good past that not so sure

Much more than the East!

West has this mix of superstar studded teams (Houston, LA) plus some hyper-functional smart franchises (Utah, Denver, GS, SA) and the East has an injured KD and Butler who went to Miami.

thats fine

As a fan of an eastern conf. team I’m all for it.

It’s the bulls’ time

bucks will make easy work of the east one wld think

Philly is going to be really weird I'm curious to see how that plays out

I fucking love it

aging no longer invulnerable to injury lebron

clips playing exciting team ball next door lol beautiful

looking likely well get a 2nd non superteam champ in a row

if kawhi is on a load management schedule of 65 games or whatever how good are the paul george led clippers

they took two games off the dubs w/o either of those guys

at least the lakers have a lot of draft picks next decade

also like regular season no matter

champ contenders now

1. clips
2. bucks
3. idk......

dubs have an outside shot of putting themselves back in the mix w the right trade i guess, celtics maybe same

philly too perhaps but i dont really trust them to make the right moves

this offseason is the baby going through the tunnel video

Also... maybe the lakers should think about trading lebron for real

It would be the most pragmatic move now, tbh, but they're in a bind, because their entire fan base is hyper-delusional, so that Buss and the Laker front office know they would live in the center of a firestorm of howling idiots if they traded LeBron.

also gotta wonder if ad wld like that, the real move wldve been to trade bron for simmons instead of their whole team for ad imho

lol

If you a knicks fan that went with bk do us both a favor and don’t tell me !!!!
