Probably someone in Miami, didn't Dipo want a bigger role and Butler said no or something? Wouldn't be surprised if the two harbor negative feelings for each other.

Most of Miami probably hates Duncan Robinson for being garbage and taking up salary.

Tobias Harris seems like such a nice guy, but surely someone on Philly has got to be thinking "why am I making jack **** and this dude is paid so much money" or maybe Tobias has feelings towards Harden. TBH Tobias is probably just feeling blessed for his contract so he probably hates no one, but surely someone off the bench in Philly harbors a dislike of Tobias.

Oh and Julius Randle gotta have some haters in the Knicks considering how things went down last year. He seems like a nice guy but the tantrums on the court gotta push someone the wrong way.

Also I always felt like the Boston core never REALLY liked each other. Yes I'm talking about Jaylen Brown and JaySon Tatum. I mean just go watch the Slam interview they had a few years ago...awkward, compare that to how the Grizzlies core have literally JJJ and Brandon Clarke watching Netflix shows together like they're roommates in college or Ja and the whole team taking photos for a memorable night..

Also I feel like DLo harbors negative feelings towards Ant, probably jealous of how Ant has completely stolen the spotlight from him in Minnesota. Of course if Minnesota is winning hard next season I'm sure DLo gets over it. If Minnesota dumps DLo because of Ant he probably has some issues with Ant. I don't think it ever becomes anything serious though since it isn't really Ants fault he's so good and DLo sucks.

Final question is the Ayton and CP3 situation. It was at one point on record that Ayton and CP3 were not on good terms after the infamous game 7. Now Ayton signed a massive deal, does he stay fine with CP3 or does it become a locker room and on the court issue to the point of forcing PHX to move somebody.

i mean they also traded barton

From everything I have heard/read Barton and Cousins got a long fine, Cousins just jumped his **** for his typical hero ball crap that Barton always tried.

That being said Barton was Connelly's buddy who protected him, as soon as Connelly left we finally got rid of Barton.

Cousins is gone because he wanted guaranteed minutes and a nightly role while the team wants to give the young guys a change to absorb the minutes.

I know Fred Vanvleet and Scottie Barnes weren’t fond of each other early on but it looks like they’ve patched things up since then.

Basing this on very little public evidence but I am going to say Terry Rozier and Gordon Hayward. They have been on underachieving teams for a while now and Hayward is extremely highly paid considering he's always injured.

It was also rumored that Rozier was Stephen A Smith's anonymous source in the Celtics Locker Room that complained about hayward being put right back in the rotation when he came back from the ankle injury.

Ayton and CP3/Book? The loss to the Mavericks was awfully ugly and the dynamic has probably suffered a fair bit. CP3 isn't known to be the easiest to get along with anyhow and Ayton's work ethic has drawn ire, whether justified or not


Grant Williams is the weird kid that gets goofed on by all of his friends. I havent heard anything about him being a issue as he hangs out with both Jays off the court.
