I’m with ya, this is nuts. Toronto now is a 6th seed at best, but at least they got that championship. Team Lebron in shambles right now with no supporting cast.

Heat are sitting pretty right now. Even the third seed is a possibility.

Woj and Shams, only people I trust. Woj is on a other level, apparently last year off season he said Kawhi to Clippers a possibility. He knows things... ultimate insider.

SO much people got exposed, its hilarious.
Woj is one of a kind because he leverages his position as a reporter to write hit pieces and puff pieces. He wrote puff pieces about Dumars/Pistons when they were garbage for years because Dumars was leaking info to him. He also hates the Heat and has trashed Riley since the Shaq trade. To no one's surprise, he rarely gets the scoop on the Heat.

This is probably old news to some, so I apologize if y'all already know about it, but I just found this out the other day.

Dragic to LA seeming less likely.

It's Dallas or bust. Looking more and more likely he's coming back. Can't say i'm really upset about it. Hoping we can deal others like Waiters, JJ, or KO.

Knew Cook would sign with the Lakers. He is a back up but might get the starter position, like a Chalmeds type role.

Dragic is the least of our FA problems. He can still be a positive on the court and his potential in a trade only gets better. Got to hope that Waiters showns signs of life early in the season and JJ, I can't see anyone taking him for us.

If the only thing we managed this off season was getting rid of Hassan 'the cancer' whiteside we'd have had a good off-season.

Feels like Clips will hold their RE for Iggy. Smart dudes, can't argue with that

If Whiteside was a cancer, so was Wade, LeBron, and Bosh.

Or maybe it's just Spo that sucks.

In the end George and Leonard wanted to play in LA. It's been there wish for a few years now. Nice to see it happen with the Clipps.

You really aren't comparing Wade and Bosh to Whiteside's antics are you?

Now that you mention it, that’s right, there were reports they would always land in LA, but people expected the Lakers not Clippers. Similar to NY with Durant/Kyrie, which was true but its the Nets. The shadow teams coming out of the dark.

Can you answer why players other than Whiteside hate Spo?
