I watch basketball I try to watch every Bulls game possible I can too but thats hard living in Philly. I barely watched the NBA playoffs besides a few games and the Boston/Philly series was probably the only series I watched every game. I laugh at the inconsistency of the rules on the court applied constantly. The NBA is nothing more then a version of the WWE these days with all the drama and acting by the players coaches and GMs.
if George signs in OKC like it seems, i honestly really have to question Lebron. I don't if he is just dumb, or if there is some other deal that no one else is aware of.
Makes no sense if George doesn’t go there. He can’t be guaranteed Kawhi will. That team with Lebron only gets crushed in round 2 to the rockets or warriors.
and i like Demarcus, but if they are relying on a 300+ pound guy returning from a torn achilles i would have to question their strategy
Made more sense in Cleveland where it was Lebron plus a roster full of other mature professionals. Different environment in LA unless all the kids get shipped out for Kawhi and whatever else. Plus who knows what Cousins looks like after that injury.
Back injuries can be career ending depending how severe they are and knee injuries too depending on what is torn and all. Point is you can't say relying on Cousins is too risky when the Sixers took a guy had the Sixers not picked top 2 may have passed on. Plus I don't see Embiid anymore different in maturity then Cousins was at his age either.
Disagree. It makes total sense to me. Everything about going to the Lakers makes sense to me for him. Even if he's not in title contention next year, it still makes sense.
EVEN IF HE'S NOT IN TITLE CONTENTION NEXT YEAR THE LAKERS MAKE SENSE TO ME FOR LEBRON.
I don’t get it. Why? He’s already maybe the biggest sports icon in the world at the moment. What does playing for the Lakers do for him? He’s the one doing them the favor.
To me, it's all about legacy and future. It's really hard to form a team that can beat Golden State right now. Instead he can go to one of the all-time most famous franchises in sports history and become the next legend in a long line of legends. He can learn from one of the most successful people ever who has transitioned from athlete to businessman. He can live in LA full time and make his family happy. It just seems like a great move to me. Plus, he removes a lot of pressure by going to a situation where he's not expected to win a championship. I dunno. I'm dumb.

You are dumb but you have some good points. I just don’t see it though, but staying in cleveland is probably far worse. That’s just depressing to me.
Jesus. Reports are that they are discussing a deal over $50 million. This is how you sink a franchise that looked headed for good things.
wow, you drunk bud?i don't see how this helps his legacy when he joins a .500 team and misses the conference finals now. maybe there is some grand plan for next year, but who knows what it is
By going full Kings on their draft picks. Who needs cheap players in the future with growth potential when you can pay Barton and Plumlee nearly $40 million a year.

really does make me question the guy. i mean he can do whatever he wants, but seems like he is throwing a lot away
Definitely the leader in the clubhouse for the worst contract of the offseason. I have a hard time even envisioning a worse contract this year. And this is happening as they are now looking into the possibility of paying a first round pick to dump the worst signing of last offseason. Impressive.
Exactly, what is he doing.
