    I want it to happen just so I can stop hearing about it potentially happening
     
  3. I don’t think LeBron will get traded but the Lakers should definitely be trying. Especially after that statement from Rich Paul. They say they want to build around Luka and that’s what they should be doing. I just don’t see how you really do that with the assets they have unless they move LeBron.

  7. I really don’t get the NBA at all lol

    Happy when guys get their money and all that. But how are these contracts sustainable? How do TV deals keep going up when ratings keep going down? Just feels like a bubble that is going to burst in a big way at some point.

    i'm no economist but i think they're fine when teams are selling for like 6-10 billion dollars

    and the upcoming 2 expansion fees will be a huge windfall for the other 30 teams too

    its gonna be insane when #OptimisticDrew ends up infuriating people more than #DoomDrew ever did lmao
     
  11. But I also don’t get that part either lol teams value consistently increasing no matter how a team operates or performs. Attendance can go down. TV ratings can go down. Franchise value stays going up.

    dont speak for me
     
  21. I think there’s a lot to be optimistic about when you have Giannis - I think the way they are constructing the roster right now around him showed some real success last season - obviously they aren’t probably winning the title but Horst is cooking something and I’d excited to see how this roster shakes out
