That's what i was thinking, but wasn't it only going to happen if the Rockets could get Butler?


Butler signing with the heat makes me question this guy’s competitiveness. He still could have gotten big money by waiting it out.

He wants that Miami lifestyle with a ton of money to blow! Not a bad way to live and it helps us out.

Where are you reading that he’s signing with the lakers? You getting it from stephen A Smith? That would be the same bitch ass move that Durant made with the warriors. I don’t think leonard is that type of guy. He’s won two titles with a team aspect.


No info or source. Just feel that’s where he’s headed. Would be a weak-a** move indeed

Him going to the lakers would shake up the nba. It would make lebroni’s job even easier. I don’t think leonard is that type of guy though. I think he loves that team aspect.

Getting the full MLE and BAE are small victories by themselves. But I want Al back. That too greedy?

Wow. Nets have bounced back tremendously. Not long ago they were the joke of the NBA. Huge credit to them and congrats to their fans who went through a lot of jokes over the last few years.

Bullpet is legit but he said source close to Horford. Maybe it’s his agent posturing for a better deal from the C’s

Al,

I was told that if you love something, you should let it go. We love you. We let you go. Now please, please come back.

I wonder who's getting the Nets players in all this S&T action? With Kyrie @ $20M, Terry @ $9-10M, we can get Kemba, but only a few mil wiggle room. Not enough for Harris. Maybe CHA is taking him and asking for picks to do so?

Rudy Gay back to the Spurs on a two year deal. They've got zero guaranteed salary on the books for '21-22. Gonna be interesting to see what directions they take.

Kawhi is staying in Toronto!!

Well, at least according to the guy who called Rozier's contract 2 hours ago.

I'd like to see more stars sign by themselves. Enough of the superteams.

Butler is not a superstar. He’s more of a robin. Leonard is a superstar. If the lakers get leonard they would have 3 superstars and a bunch of role players but it could work out. They would be the favorites for the nba title .

That's why I want him to go anywhere but there, if I failed to make my point just for clarification.

LAC would be better, but as long as he is not doing Lebron any favor... :thumbsup:
