ESPN Sources: The NBA will make Chicago and Miami forfeit their next available second-round draft pick over findings in probe into early contact in summer free agency. Probe was centered on Lonzo Ball and Kyle Lowry sign and trades.

if all you lose for preempting free agency is a second round pick they shouldn’t even bother having a rule

everyone skips to the third round

yeah the penalty was worth it for those players obv

Oh, god, that's going to devastate their G-League teams.

Heat star Bam Adebayo has suffered a torn UCL in right thumb and will undergo surgery, team says.

boo

what is it

🤔Something is REAL 🐠 🐟 🎣 🐟🐠 going on

oh geez now what

bron’s team isn’t playing well so you know he’s about to do some weird stuff, tale as old as time

he investigated and found out drandre jordan and avery bradley are on his team

dr andre and a very bradley

Derek Fisher to coach lakers

My guess is LeBron's thinking something's "fishy" with his recent covid test results, 2 of which were positive, with the PCR being negative, hence him going into the protocol. Given his reluctance to publicly comment on his vaccination status earlier this year and his support for Green's silly vents defending Wiggins' protestations, I wouldn't be surprised if he thinks there's a "conspiracy" out to get him.

Or, if I was to take the more cynical, soulless and corporate LeBron narrative control perspective, he's trying to avoid accountability for his own failures as LeGM and his social and political hypocrisy on display via Enes Kanter's recent tweets.

he really is kind of a dork

fit IN or fit out!!

bruh is your take really that kanter has revealed hypocrisy in... lebron?

Have not seen such a minor technical issue derail a game like this Boston/Philly net issue.

just tuned in what happened with the net

please everyone refer to Freedom by his proper name, thank you

One of the wires holding the net in broke. They've had to stop the game three times to fix it including delaying the start of the second half.

yeah there was just one spot where the net was detached from the rim a little bit, you never would have questioned it on your local public court.

silly

bruh is your take really that kanter has revealed hypocrisy in... lebron?

ha, not exactly revealed I suppose - just made it trending on twitter... again.

not to say Kante... *ahem* Freedom isn't hypocritical, but everything he's called out is not exactly inaccurate. It's spot on. Generally shooting the messenger when the message is OTM is a weak counter.

i don't think lebron cares, or possibly even has any idea, what enes kanter says about him

he has addressed the matter in a very caring fashion fwiw

One consistency in the Process era Sixers has been terrible end of game execution.

rob blocked the game winning attempt very beautiful

how online is lebron, i get conflicting ideas about this. probably he is not very online and just likes to post?

i think thats correct hes online in the way only a celebrity can be

did Enes Kanter Freedom really go on Tucker

all i will say is that enes kanter is about whatever draws attention to enes kanter

LameLo having a hell of a game vs. the champs
