It's going to be the new model of success IMO. Lottery odds are too evenly spread out to properly tank anymore. Teams need to load up on talent wherever they can and then when the opportunity comes, trade for that disgruntled star. This should be the model. Teams have been trying to take shortcuts since The Decision. The Dubs mastered it. Other teams are following suit as they should. Hopefully the Nix actually try to win instead of purposely sucking yet another year. It would be great to see the entire league actually play to win the game. The reason for all of this is the fact that loyalty is dead. When the best player in the world changes teams like dirty underwear, everyone else follows suit. Nothing is a sure thing. Build the best team you can and still place for the FA period. Entice an FA with the fact that your team has been good but can be great with him. That's exactly what BKN did

Payton to Nix 2/16 and the STACBOB pay Rozier almost 20 mil a year. SMH THEIR fans must be so tired of mediocrity. It's been what, 15 years since they've been founded and not once have they been able to put out anything close to a contender.

The Heat are still looking to move Dragic. Kinda wish the suns would move Tyler Johnson and bring dragic back for a couple seasons.

Playoffs are not in their future. You'll prolly see a bunch of people jump on our bandwagon now that we have Kemba.

WTF which disgruntled star did the jazz or nuggets trade for?!? TF are you guys talking about?? The Dubs DRAFTED 3 players that will go to the hall of fame. KD signed as a free agent, no trade involved. Stop it. To answer Tadti, I think Swiper will "plateau" to an extent as the team is better around him his numbers and highlights won't stand out as much. Spida? I think he's about to unlock the "06 D-wade" Cheat code lol. Having conley and bogdanovic will allow him to just attack basically one on one. It's gonna be a movie every night watching him...

July 1st, that means it's Bobby Bonilla day. He gets his $1.19M today
He'll still make $19.1M more until 2035
The Mets released him in January 2000 even though they still owed him $5.9 million in salary. Rather than accept the $5.9 million up front, he agreed to defer the money in exchange for 8% interest. In 2011 the first year Bonilla was paid under the deferment agreement, the $5.9 million had grown to $29.8 million. Spread that $29.8 million across 25 years from 2011-35 and you get that $1,193,248.20 annual payment.
He hasn't played since 2001

If Lebron's the GOAT why does he need 2 other top 5 players to win a title? Lmaooooooo Cause Jordan didn't play with Pippen for 10 years or anything. Dennis Rodman is in the NBA HOF. Horace Grant was an all star. Toni Kukoc was 6th man of the year and an ELITE player. Ron Harper was a former all star. No player has won by themselves, EVER! IT'S A TEAM GAME STOP HATING HIS GREATNESS AND BEING JEALOUS OF MY LAKERS!!!! Again, why can't you be happy the Bulls did great yesterday? Why can't you see the silver lining that lauri and zach could make superstar leaps and get you up to like 4th in the east? STOP BEING A LIL JEALOUS ASS BIIIIIISH!!!!!!

How many of those are top 5 in the NBA at that time? Lebron needs 60% of his starting lineup to be top 5 to win lmao. Dude can't handle competition, so he tries to stack the cards to massively in his favor so that he can win the easiest way possible

I meant the Warriors did it the right way. They drafted well and convinced a high caliber player that their culture was the way to go. That's the way it should be done. That's why the Nix will fail cuz their culture hasn't changed. They're hoping some of these signings will tell the rest of the league that things are different. Unless they muzzle Dolan, the appearance will always be the same

Unless they muzzle Dolan, the appearance will always be the same The Knicks problem is they think everything will fall for them. In the past, sucking for a few years to get a high draft pick was a tactic worth pursuing. Knicks never bothered with this and instead just kept taking on ugly contracts of past their prime stars hoping to rejuvenate them. Now this season they finally decided they wanted to tank. The problem is, being the worse team in the NBA also means you have an 85% chance to not win the lottery. They all assumed they had Zion in the bag. They are dinosaurs.

I haven’t seen the woj bomb on this yet. What do you say of kawhi doesn’t go to “the lakers” He'll call it a delayed sign and trade I mean if kawhi don’t come and they can’t convince Davis to sign long term the lakers could be faked. A lot will depend on Davis/lebron relationship Serious question ridge if kawhi doesn’t sign with the lakers who left on the open market is their that makes the lakers a championship contender?
