Never forget: the Warriors were prepared to trade Curry for Bogut but the Bucks took Monta instead.
Nope.

There were serious talks of Klay and Draymond for Kevin Love though. Thank you Jerry West for calling everyone crazy.

drat Sportscenter...
Talking about guys being "woke" and the bay not being racist and implying the administration is. And saying Ohio would have wanted the Cavs to go because they supported Trump... it's true but not used to ESPN being this political

Melo's gonna continue to decline this year. He'll be terrible.


Hah you think Curry was threatening to leave if he didn't get max?

They talked Durant (a younger, far, far better player than Curry) out of a max, but can't get Steph to agree not wreck the team?
This was the plan the whole time... they know what they're doing.

1. A large proportion of the media live in LA and think it's the bee's knees and can't imagine why anyone else wouldn't think so too.
2. Historically the Lakers have had a lot of success luring free agents there,
2.1 partially because some players think LA is the bee's knees
2.2 and partially because a ton of player agents live in LA and drive their clients to Los Angeles because that way they don't have to travel far too meet them and keep them happy
3. Lebron has a home in LA and didn't it just come out that he won't play for the Clippers
