Hypocritical overreaction, politicians put out campaign ads and Christmas post cards showing-off "muh guns"
OTOH, I understand that it looks bad for the image the NBA is trying to put out there.

Agreed, but may be some education is in order, and shorter suspension. Maybe see if he’d be willing to get involved in some anti-violence activities.

Dunno what the offers have been for Portland's 3rd pick, but they have been very patient, not panicking, and they will be listening to offers all the way through their time on the clock.

Jesus why do you need draft picks when you do what Philly just did. Rocky council, tubelis, and Terquavion smith. All guys that were projected late first rounders early seconds a couple months ago.

What is the Poole For CP3 trade was a smoke screen to get off pooles money and trade CP3 for depth.

Pretty dumb for the Lakers to just let those contracts go when they could trade them.

There's so much movement in the East. Philly went from top 3 team to potentially being a play in team. Harden to the Clippers in exchange for Morris, Covington, etc isn't going to move the needle much.

Bucks might lose one of Lopez/Middleton.

Boston added KP and are probably the favorites in the East just by default.

Miami might lose Vincent and Strus.

ATL gave away Collins and are looking to shed more salary.
Bickerstaff: who's up for kickball?!!
Ed Wood: Only if it's the no-pants variety.

The new CBA is breaking up top teams and redistributing their assets to the bottom teams with cap room. There will be a whole lot more parity.

It will take unique vision and fortitude to lose consistently in this environment. We are just the team to do it! :D

That Jerami Grant contract making the Kuz contract look reasonable.

That deal is terrible. Kyrie and Middletons deals are also not good deals even though they are shorter by a year. Lots of bad contracts being handed out and honestly Kuz might end up being the best contract handed out today.

And win or lose, collect draft picks and pick swaps from everybody, because you never know who else will fall off the table.
