Harden got Doc fired and now Embiid most likely wants Harden gone.....LOL.

Fuck.

I will never forget her on MNF when Stu Scott passed and her emotional reaction with Trent Dilfer, Steve Young, and Ray Lewis. Kolber and Scott started at ESPN together.

Steve Young might be gone too.

I liked her.

Hard not too.

She's very likeable.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Think some of these can come back.

Ed Worder (the Cowboys beat reporter) got laid off years ago (think his grown son had cancer at the time, there was some real outrage amongst the ESPN staffers) and they brought him back eventually.

Her moment with drunk Joe Namath was classic, she handled it with class like everything else.

Drunk ass.

 

[tlance]

Morey should absolutely do that.

Make your opponent worse.

 

[Wamu]

Drunk ass.

I still remember that. He was hammered.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I hate to say this because the Celtics are a hated rival but I really think Boston nailed it with the trade for Porzingis.

He had his best season. Played in 65 games (the most since his 2nd season) and he was very efficient. 50%, 38.5%, 85%.

And a rim protector that can mean Horford's old ass can come off the bench and they both can be fresh in fewer mpg.

Losing Smart hurts but they have White and Brog at PG.

Gotta give up something to get something.

This is a solid deal for the Lakers if true. Fair price with a possibility of a team option or partial guarantee. Makes it an easy trade piece at the deadline if need be too.

The other strong word out of Hollywood is that the Lakers are trending toward bringing back D’Angelo Russell after acquiring from the Timberwolves at February’s trade deadline. Early indications are that Russell and the Lakers could come to terms on a two-year, $40 million deal with the second year a team option or non-guaranteed.

2023 NBA free agency: Should we be preparing for James Harden to end up with the Clippers?

As free agency is set to kick off at 6 p.m. ET Friday, Harden, Kyrie Irving, Fred VanVleet, Bruce Brown and the Lakers will be the centers of attention.

Yeah, but why would the Blazers want Harden?

Theyd be in the same situation as they are now, with a worse player.

There would need to be a 3rd team involved that Harden wants to go to, that is also willing to pay him.

That road leads back to the Clippers.

So, fuck that…lol

They wouldn’t be. That’s why it would have to come in a three way trade or in two separate deals. Ideally, the Harden move nets 1-2 first round picks that can be packaged with the Sixers available for trade first rounder in 2029 with Tobias Harris and Korkmaz’s expiring 45 million in salary. This isn’t a huge win for Portland but it’s palatable because of picks and cap relief. Portland is going to lose on the deal anyway if Dame directs his way out.

Good stuff in there.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Shit, was that in question?

Lmao

I am pleased. If I’m taking back one of the Clippers invalids I prefer Kawhi.
