Didn’t the NBA specifically **** with Dame for trying to narrow down his destinations to 1 team? Where’s that now, it’s pretty clear Jimmy’s up to the same strategy but with the Suns.

Then again after the Luka trade it’s clear the NBA just picks and chooses winners and losers sometimes.

This is fascinating. Nobody involved has any leverage.

We should have traded him this summer, this falls flat on the face of our front office.

They’re going to just wind up cutting him and he will sign with the Lakers.

Except Ben was actually hurt... Look at the various back surgeries he's had to undergo... It turns out he was always telling the truth, which is also probably why the Sixers ended up having to settle with him in regards to his withheld pay.

So just Celtics and Thunder then? Nobody else? Jimmy doesn’t give a rat fart about winning. He’s setting up his next payday just like Kyrie did.

Do the Mavs have the contracts to swing a trade for Jimmy after the Luka deal?

Definitely for the best, this team is way too far off from contending for a Jimmy trade. Warriors should let Steph heal his thumb/knees and just tank for the best pick possible while playing young guys.

Jimmy can throw a tantrum all he wants. Nobody is taking Beal and he wont waive his no trade to go for a salary dump.

Should have just gone to the Warriors.
