2018 NBA OFFSEASON

That's cold. Ain't his fault his hairline is that way

Stephen A is okay. I'd rather save my hatred for Bayless and Cowherd.

The whole key to being a successful sports commentator comes down to one of two categories: beloved or controversial. The beloved gig is hard to get, but once you've snuggled into the fans' affections, you're set for life. If you choose the easier controversial route, the opinions you embrace can be well-founded, stupid, far-fetched or any combination, so long as they rile up sports fans in a big way.

would love to see how marv albert traversed those axes through time

money and years (1 left) are basically identical. sets up a DJ trade i suppose.

gortat is cooked.

I saw Gortat in my local supermarket in the SF Valley last month. #braggin.

But at least he's not Austin Rivers.

mavs are weird as per usual

luka tossing lobs to deandre and dennis smith jr doing dunks with his small hands is...its not a playoff team but itll be fun

yeah they won't be great but that's a team i would watch for sure

huh what no we need him

Note: The Celtics cannot acquire a player like Anthony Davis because of the Rose rule. Boston is allowed to trade for only one player (Kyrie Irving) that was signed with the Rose rule.

anthony davis isn't getting traded this offseason so i'm not sure why this is news

other than that it's a really dumb clause in the cba

but like when is it ok for them to get him the nba rules are hard

on what date will the celtics acquire brow

if they trade kyrie or sign him to a new contract before acquiring a.d. this clause no longer applies

so they will trade kyrie for brow, i will miss him but life is full of difficult decisions

words of wisdom

i'm irrationally psyched that the sign 'n trade is back, baby

i feel like dre jordan shd go to a good team like whats the point of him playing out the remainder of his prime for a rebuilding mavs

what good team wants deandre?

idk it doesnt have to be like the best team but at least one looking at the playoff u know

if bron were to stay w the cavs i think dre cld help them alot (not enough to be the celtics)

(why bron is gonna leave)

when bron leaves the cavs should be honest and contract themselves

its the right thing to do

demolish their arena light the river on fire and split town

dj would be fine on the cavs but i have no idea what the path to acquiring him would be.

the wiz could trade wing depth for him; i don't hate that?

yeah i support him on the wiz tho itd prob still turn out depressing and weird cause its the wiz

oh yeah for sure

dre seems like a chill positive guy he shdnt have to endure that
