Who's kingly

I tend to think there are no sources and it’s all educated guesses and opinions. And I tend to think my guesses are pretty solid. So add me to that tier please. Thanks.

He was in Al Jefferson's circle and tipped RealGM off and some of us won a lot of money with the Celtics at 100:1 to win the title.

They seem to be loading up on contacts they may believe they could use in a trade for Leonard later in the season. I can't imagine Pop dealing for the likes of McGee or Stephenson, but what do I know?

Is Kawhi still in San Diego? Maybe Hayward can give him a visit while he's there. :lol:

If you don't agree with a poster scroll past their post/posts how hard is that.

I have been here since 2011 i see how posters get attacked personally everyday by other posters. Immature behavior. Posting in this forum is not worth it. Many posters have left this forum because of personal attacks, and have stopped posting here. Who wants to be attacked for their opinion/posts regardless if they are right or wrong. No one has time for that. It is just sports.I am not going to be that active here. It is not worth it. Even when you block them they don't get the hint and wouldn't stop with the messaging. Whatever.

Afam is fine.

Sometimes a bit over the top, but it is freakin sports. You good for me, and been on this board almost 15 years.

So. Stop with the mental health stuff. Just reasonably attacks his post.

Even with KL I am not sure they are getting out of the first round. West is stacked.

The West is stacked, but not THAT stacked. Who's knocking them out in the first round? Portland? Utah? Denver? Wolves? New Orleans? OKC? Not happening, as much as I'd enjoy it.

edit: I know you all want to bash on the Lakers, but let's be slightly realistic here...

The Warriors, Rockets, Thunder. 3 Games separated 3rd place and 9th place in the West last year I can see Lebron and Leonard geting to that 48-50 win level but the other teams are all going to be there as well. You could win 50 games and be the 6th or 7th seed.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but: Screw the Lakers and Screw Kawhi for wanting to go there. Seriously.

So, to briefly summarize:

LA Sucks

Kawhi Sucks

Lebron Definitely Sucks

I wouldn't give up the worst guy on the bench for this introverted, LA loving, contract dishonoring dude. Respectable guys like Ginobili have called him out. There's no place on the Celtics for him.

The Thunder just lost in the first round to the Jazz. What makes you think they can beat a LeBron/Kawhi team in a seven-game series?

Add Ball into the mix and it is the all drama show.

It looks like GM lebron is hard at work making terrible signings.

Actually, those are both one year deals so not too bad. But how are they going to pair lebron with two more all stars with zero cap space?

No Celtics Thug? Lol. Wonder how “Ryen Gomes” is doing?

I remember kingly helping out this former Northeastern Student with his inside tips. (This isn’t my first account) Turned a nice little profit.

Kingly is god tier, he was a friend of al Jefferson. That was awesome.

And, get Keith off this list. He’s real and has more insight than anyone ever on this board. The fact he is real and in media means he can’t tell us everything he knows or has heard.

Not fair to group him with regular posters.

Not sure why you added 'introverted' to your list of things that are wrong with Kawhi. If anything, that's what makes him likeable to me.

LeBron signing in LA has cooled the Celtics pursue of Kawhi Leonard. Ainge has always maintained that he likes the Celtics roster as-is. With LeBron in LA the East is even more wide open. Ainge will continue to have conversations with the Spurs about a potential Leonard deal, but it's going to take a REALLY good deal to get Ainge to do something. Ainge needs to stay involved because Philly is still a potential landing spot for Kawhi.

Seriously. Some of the best players ever were introverted. Heck, KG was pretty much an introvert. A different kind of introvert from Kawhi, but still an introvert.

God you're insufferable.

reload has absolutely nailed things that weren't even discussed in the media before. Smitty IS in the media. These guys know a heck of a lot more than you, me and anyone else on this forum.
