And I'm looking at Plumlee. I think he'd be a great compliment to a minutes restricted Rob.

Not crying, just stating that a lot of people a paying a crazy amount in taxes. 15 million a year in federal taxes? You could buy how many homeless people houses just with that. Where does all this money go? I guarantee a portion of it is wasted. How much? We’ll never know.




People that complain about high taxes are rarely the ones who care about housing the homeless.
You would be surprised at the things that you take for granted that are paid for by taxes.



It baffles me when people defend paying taxes. We pay sales tax, property tax, excise tax, income tax, capital gains tax, etc.. Then this government wastes it & people want us to pay more? Lol

It’s crazy how much taxes we have to pay in the US & there are always people demanding we pay more… Sorry Bernie, people are paying their fair share, if not more…

It's not crazy and rich people are not close to paying fairly into the system in the US. Nowhere close.

I'll never understand the desire to take a grenade for the 1%. It's like people lose their ability to reason with 7-figure numbers.

People still thinking giving money to the govt isn’t giving it to rich people lmfao.

I might have cracked the code on the "rate limit exceeded" thing on Twitter. Keep it open, refresh your feed all day, and don't even let your eyes look at anything else.

I live in California and it’s really a rich state. We pay high taxes on everything and yet year after year this Government keeps creating Bills for more money and at the same we don’t see any improvement. Homeless and crime are at the highest level. I wonder where all these money they were asking or received went? Hmmm. Probably to pay for something or someone else? Hmmm.

I think we desperately need a true starting level point guard, and it would appear that moving Brown or Brogdon+ are the only ways to get one.

Brogdon + Grant S & T would equal Harden's salary almost perfectly. Just saying

I’m seeing people on Twitter saying that Siakim to the GSW is in play. I wonder who the warriors would send?

Can Dallas create cap space or swing a trade to net a large enough TPE for a trade? THJ would be the TPE creator unless they are able to S&T Wood AND receive a signed and traded Grant. Worst result here, imo, is receiving nothing in trade for him.
