I was wondering what was taking his buyout so long.

Hate to see this.

Probably he smartest move a Jordan owned team has made.

Pivoting to Rozier and not paying Kemba.

Cheap fucks did it on accident.



Per sources, the Pistons and Walker had agreed on a number, which was a few million less than what he’s owed. However, and this is just an *educated hunch,* Walker has yet to officially agree to the terms of the buyout because, well, a player usually takes a buyout when he’s sure that he can sign with another team and make up some of the money he gave back. So, if you read the tea leaves, it sounds like Walker is unsure that another team out there is interested in his services at this exact point in time. If that’s the case, Walker doesn’t have to take less money just to sit at home. Walker, instead, could force the Pistons to pay him everything he is owed, even if they just waive him on their own accord. To sum it all up in one sentence: It feels like Walker doesn’t have another team lined up right now and there is no point in him taking less money until he does.


Yea that is wild no one will take him on the vet min?

Knicks managed to get a future first dealing Walker to the Pistons with Duren. Two franchises known for questionable moves doing the right thing?

Luka put Slovenia on his back and scored 47 (23 shots) as they defeated France by six. His 47 was the 2nd most in eurobasket history.

...and then watch the West win again like last year.
Last year it was still even IMO but yes the West has a couple contenders. As usual health will play a big role. Generally the contenders that are healthy in the playoffs advance the furthest. Warriors were hurt all year then got healthy right when the playoffs started.

“The 18-year old Wembanyama, who recently measured 7-foot-4 barefoot with an 8-foot wingspan, has wowed NBA executives for the past three years with his exceptional combination of fluidity, perimeter skill, shot-blocking instincts and feel for the game, and has cemented himself as the likely No. 1 pick, barring a major surprise. He was named French LNB Pro A Best Young Player two years in a row and made his EuroLeague debut last season.”
