i dont even hate the lakers anymore actually i love them

lol look at that tiny suit

tfw you're fucked with 2 top 10 polayers on your roster

lol they will be fucked but possibly entertaining

i always had the normal hate a laker fan would have for the celtics but being around this board where historically you guys have slobbered all over the celtics definitly hasn't help

i wld never slobber on the celtics thats disrespectful to bill russell and larry bird

cmon i reserve my ironic overenthusiasm for the nuggets

An ESPN employee recorded Woj's conversation with someone from the Minnesota Timberwolves (Woj thought the stream was muted when it wasn't). pic.twitter.com/aC7j9k6NkO

what a shitty thing to do

yeah also seems fairly career suicidal to play one of ESPNs most high profile reporters like that

the biggest scandal is woj is a fuckin cornball with a beto sticker on his laptop

why the hell would someone do that, that is absolutely nuts

enjoying the draft day episode of this new Mike Judge show, Lakers Front Office

I don't understand the Woj thing. Other than invading the privacy of the conversation, what came out of it?

mb he thought the sound was off

Rob: Looks like you've been missing a lot of work lately.
Magic: Well, I wouldn't exactly say I've been missing it, Rob.

xxp d'angelo should write about it in the players' tribune and get dude fired

kendrick perkins is fun on the jump rn

i hate him cos he hates steph and i have fan duties

what time does this start im gonna be on a train i think

i guess woj will just tweet all the picks 30 seconds before they happen anyway

bol bol already a legend

tj warren to pacers

wait the suns gave up a pick to get rid of him???????????????

warrens contract was so good wtf are they doing he's worth a pick coming back AT LEAST.

give up a pick to shed a 20ppg scorer in his prime on a very team friendly contract ????? im baffled

turned on woj tweet notifications as is my annual duty on this day of days

yeah i think phx is gonna make a run at DLo or something idk, that move is baffling

The Suns are not a free-agent destination but had to attach No. 32 to TJ Warren so Indiana would take a very productive Warren from them? Is Phoenix about to surprise us with all that cap space?

— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) June 20, 2019

dlo and booker backcourt doesnt make a lot of sense to me

nothing about phoenix makes sense.

god if the spurs trade one of their big contracts to phx and they get the number 6 lets gooooooooooooo

why didnt they offload tyler johnsons expiring with a pick?

has tyler exercised his player option?

hed be an idiot not to

but not yet

Atlanta has acquired New Orleans No. 4 pick in the draft for No. 8 and 17 and 35, league sources tell ESPN. Pelicans are sending Solomon Hill, No. 57 pick and a future second-round pick.

david griffin is really working it

whewwwwww, trade down 4 spots, get an extra mid-1st rounder and early second ounder and shed solomon hill's contract?

Schlenk must really like whoever he thinks hes gonna get at 4

i dont know what the cap holds are on the pellies 3 1st rounders, but they are clearing space hmmmmm

Atlanta is pursuing Virginia's DeAndre Hunter with the No. 4 pick, league sources tell ESPN. Atlanta GM Travis Schlenk makes a big move in lottery second year in a row to get his man. Last year, it was Trae Young. This time, DeAndre Hunter.

There's gotta be something else in the works. Nola doesn't need that many rookies

wild trade for tj warren. not a big fan of him as a player but at least the numbers are good

pacers now have two tjs as well

Who knows what Pacers starting 5 looks like next year (esp. with Dipo out until Dec/Jan), but he'll basically replace Tyreke as a dude who scores but can't defend. Much better roster fill tho! Younger, better scorer, nice to have a 3pt dude on board since they'll likely lose their best two outside shooters in FA. Wonder if the #30 pick is a cursed pick from a 2012 Sacto trade.

Big day for good GMs.

TJ is a great bucket getter. really served best as a 6th man.

nola probably wants another role player vet or two
