maybe you just get rid of the conferences for the playoffs?

Seems like that'd guarantee a better finials match up.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Of all the players the Cavs can lose, Kyrie seems to be the least ideal other than Lebron.

Well yeah, but I'm just desperately gasping at any sort of positive return for PG.

but one could argue that it has all but guaranteed an AMAZING offseason.

LeBron becomes the 4th alpha. The most alpha alpha. What better way to bury MJs overblown legacy than by being the best alpha ever?

Lmao is it really already considered "Billups/Cavs". I hope billups makes good on his tweet and trades love for melo like holy poo poo not even in my wildest dreams did I think it was in the realm of fanfic possibility and now I feel like it would come at a terrible monkey paw type price where it happens but phil will trade porzingis just to move up on the draft because mark cuban is spooking him

If the Clippers sign no one else long-term, they potentially have empty salary if DeAndre and Austin Rivers decline their player option. The Lakers are still paying Mosgov and Deng 34 million dollars that year.

Ireland just said on ESPN Radio that Ainge threaten to take Lonzo Ball unless they receive some sort of incentives from the Lakers. Hours later the "Fultz murdered his workout with the Lakers" leaked.
