Rest in peace, Robert Redford. This one hurts. Gorgeous man. Authentic, impactful life. Lived by his beliefs.

I saw that also. Rip. He was beyond stunning and will be missed. I always compared him to Richard Gere

The Bulls are not that dumb are they?(I doubt the legitimacy of the report). But my god that would be dumb.

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/nba/top-stories/nba-trade-rumors-denver-nuggets-looking-to-bag-21-million-chicago-bulls-star-to-strengthen-championship-push/amp_articleshow/123873832.cms

The Denver Nuggets are reportedly pursuing Ayo Dosunmu in a multi-team trade aimed at bolstering their roster alongside Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. This move would have ripple effects for all teams involved, while statistical evidence supports the potential benefits. Below is a breakdown of how the trade would unfold and who stands to gain the most.

Under recent mock trade scenarios, the Denver Nuggets would acquire Ayo Dosunmu and Justin Champagnie from the Chicago Bulls. In return, the Bulls would receive Zeke Nnaji, Peyton Watson, a 2026 second-round pick, and a 2028 first-round swap with top-10 protection from Denver. Additionally, the Washington Wizards would receive a 2032 second-round pick from the Denver Nuggets as part of the deal.

If he was as good as everyone said he was, he'd have a job by now (The Grizzlies and Knicks both passed on him).

He is a homeless version of Thibs. Basically Thibs light. Would be a downgrade for us. Even Mike Brown has some offensive chaps. He is just a Jokic merchant.

NBA star Kevin Durant has regained access to his bevy of bitcoins, years after getting locked out of his Coinbase account.

“We got this fixed. Account recovery complete,” Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said Friday in a social media post, replying to a tweet about Durant being locked out of his account on the cryptocurrency exchange.

"I'm Kevin Durant, this website knows who I am"

Very informative video if you want to know the Jonathan Kuminga situation:

Basically, Kuminga is willing to sign a 3year 75M deal, but the last year has to be a PO. The Warriors aren't budging from the TO. That's been the hold up so far. Kuminga's agent Aaron Turner thinks the Warriors are acting in bad faith because they want no risk involved and know that the market this summer is closed for RFA.

Cavs signed Thomas Bryant. Big man depth never hurts.

Would it be worth dropping a lower player in your fantasy league for players like; Ivey, Tatum who're injured? Will they see any playing time? Maybe I might put them in my ir spot and re pick up the dropped player?

Don't know Ivey's status, but imo Tatum's not worth it. If he comes back, it'll be late in the season and he'll be rusty and on a minutes limit.
