*Get rid of their GM

That too.

Lebron has not played winning basketball since Cleveland. Actually we saw some of it in 2020, in the bubble, but since then he does not do anything the contributes to wins. AD is way too injury prone. He has an issue with his ankles and feet, if he plays to 32 I would be shocked.

The only move Lakers should make is move these two, load up on draft picks and rebuild.

Apparently Lakers were willing to give up a couple of first rounders and Westbrook (although I get they've been wanting to get rid of Westbrook for a while).

Think Mavs got a decent deal to make a deep playoff run....if Kyrie doesn't do Kyrie things anyway lol

Those Lakers picks wouldn't be until the end of the decade.

The Suns offered Chris Paul, Jae Crowder & a 1st round pick but the Nets rejected.

I reckon they wanna get rid of Westbrook like u said.
Mavs get a good deal if Kyrie doesn't become a bitch there too..
Did Kyrie want to go to LA? Maybe the Nets owner sent him where he didn't wanna go for being a fuckin trouble making sook?

Totally agree, think he said he wanted to get the band back together with LeBron and ownership just said get f-ed. Had enough of his extracurricular antics, ie no vax = no playing home games in NY for a while, the anti-semitism

Lebron with 28 points & there is 7 min left in the 3rd.

Big win by the Celtics over Philly.

That was without Brown, Smart, Horford, Williams and Smart.. And Tatum only had 12 points.. The Celtics own Philly. They have for years. Philly aren't a threat to win the title. They're a fair way off Boston and Milwaukee.

Solid trade for them.. At least they've got young players back for once and more shooting and depth. I don't think they're close to being a contender but they're a much better chance of making the playoffs and maybe avoiding the play-in if they can go on a run.

Durant to the Suns !! Gave up a massive haul 4 first rounders and players

Just saw on espn durant to the suns and almost blew in my pants

Phoenix Suns starting lineup:

Deandre Ayton
Dario Saric
Kevin Durant
Devin Booker
Chris Paul

They are the favourites for the title now.

 

[Freakzilla]

Brooklyn Nets starting lineup:

Nic Claxton
Ben Simmons
Mikal Bridges
Cam Thomas
Spencer Dinwiddie

Cameron Johnson
Royce O'Neale
Jae Crowder
Dorian Finney-Smith
Seth Curry
Patty Mills
Joe Harris
Edmond Sumner
Yuta Watanabe

No playoffs for the Nets. Weak starting lineup but they have great depth.

 

[Interestingg]

Brooklyn are so stupid. They literally took the Mavs offer for Kyrie to get back players they liked who could compete for a title, rejected the other offers with more picks, then traded Durant lol they are now irrelevant

 

[B-Train]

That's a horrible trade for the Nets. KD is worth way more than that. They traded that many picks to get Harden who they traded away barely a year later.

Phoenix must be laughing. Minny paid the same to get Gobert!
