    Tom Brady is 40 and every NFL team would line up to have him. Some athletes transcend the norm.

    I mean, not even comparable on so many levels. Tom Brady was 24 by the time he started playing. LeBron was 18. Most NBA players start to decline when they're 32/33/34 years old...and those are mostly guys who didn't play in NBA until they were 20 or so. LeBron has a TON of mileage on him between deep playoff runs every year and summer olympics/Team USA.

    I’m fully ready for the Prince, Bembry, and Collins show. (and a top 3 pick)

    Yeah and every team besides Golden State would drop all their plans to have him next year

    "Sorry Lebron, we'd love to have you here in [Any city that has an NBA team] but we think we'd be better off with [any player who is objectively worse than Lebron] and focusing on building a strong bench. Best of luck."

    Have slowly but surely been getting back into basketball for the first time about two decades over the last 2-3 years and usually only after the all-star break.

    Say what you want about the Warriors but they got me to start watching again because of all I heard about them (fast play, great team, tons of 3's, etc.) but I'm not a fan of them (but I also don't hate them).

    Looking forward to following the Bucks, Timberwolves and, as always to some extent, the Blazers.

    Took Giannis first overall in my H2H points league cause like every other non-Warrior player has an entirely different situation

    WCS was an accident. I meant to add him to my queue and draft Buddy Hield but I didn't pay attention and hit add the second it became my turn lol.

    You had like the 8th pick or?

    3rd hahaha. The irony is I took Westbrook because the last two years running I've gotten fucked on guards being drafted so early.

    That's awful then, I knew one pick or the other was gonna suck tho lol should taken like kat or jokic and then picked someone like dame or Irving in the second

    Giannis and KAT went top two. I considered Jokic but figured he was a reach over Westbrook. And I wanted Kawhi but same deal. My initial goal was KAT and trade bait the Wolves fans in the league haha.

    I probably would've taken KD then and taken Conley in the 3rd or something

    I just worry about Westbrooks usefulness long term, mostly.

    They don't have any roster spots. Which is why they traded RJ and Kay. Clear roster dump.

    Also, that's a pretty shocking move, no? Jameer played well last year. I remember hoping that the Cavs would get him instead of Deron Williams at the deadline. I'd MUCH rather have Jameer than RJ.
