    That was the whole reason. Him and Cuban.

    Generally, people don't like to hemorrhage money for too long. With Lebron back in the fold, the Cavs may well be profitable. However, their luxury tax bill will be enormous this season.

    If the Spurs record surpasses the Warriors...

    I remember when Kobe won his MVP in 2008, it came right down to the end between him and CP3. The Lakers edged out the Hornets for the best record in the west and Kobe got the MVP. That year seemed to come down to which team had the better record. Regarding this season, Kawhi doesn't have the...

    Yes, I understand how the luxury tax works. We'll see how long Gilbert wants to pay that much. It gets even worse once you're hit with the repeater tax. The Lakers have shown and have stated that they don't have a problem paying luxury taxes. There were hit with a $29mil luxury tax bill...

    Paying luxury taxes didn't bother them before. Heck, they were paying luxury taxes along with supporting the poor small market franchises through revenue sharing, and yet were still the most profitable NBA team. The Lakers brand is huge.

    The Buss family is so poor that they can't afford to build a brand new state of the art training facility for the Lakers. Oh wait, they are building it.

    Two of them are. Anshcutz and Dr. Soon-Shiong. It doesn't matter though. They don't need the backing of multi-billions of dollars to be successful.

    They don't need to be billionaires. A lot of billionaires are running shitty teams.

    By the way, there are a couple of others with ownership percentages of the Lakers. And they are billionaires.

    Yes, they've made a lot of money owning the Lakers. When was that ever a debate?

    That the Buss family were billionaires? Don't think that was ever an argument.

    Game Thread: Warriors @ Cavs 8 PM EST TNT

    The Cavs might be better when not at full strength. At least minus a Kevin Love. He's looked terrible against the Warriors.

    Game Thread: Warriors @ Cavs 8 PM EST TNT

    :lol: My team, at full strength mind you, got blown the fuck out by the team that beat us for the 2015 title, but at least there was a game thread! Cavs fans were so looking forward to last night's game and were certainly not thrilled to see that result.

    Looking forward to the evening games, GS vs. Cleveland anyway. What's up with the pussies in Cleveland being so offended by Steph's comment?

    There are plenty of opportunities to rest between games. These guys are elite level athletes. Draymond is 25 years old. They get paid to play. Fans pay to see them play, not rest. It's not good for the product. That's why you have to respect Kobe, whether you like him or not. Dude always...
