What is going on with Cousins. Someone’s gotta take him.

The original comment was claiming Simmons likes the lifestyle but doesn't enjoy getting better or putting in the work to improve his skills.

You called that baseless and posted this pic without any other info or context. There's no evidence that he was working hard in that pic, so I don't get why it was posted.

I don't really dislike Simmons, he's meh to me. A lil too cocky and soft, but he's good, I'll admit. I just thought the pic was kinda ironic.

To support a point that had nothing to do with perspiration.. hence why that observation is meaningless.

Anyone know if the Iguodala to Lakers theory was more than just speculation? Think he'd be an excellent vet to have in our rotation. Would easily be our best perimeter defender in the playoffs too.

If perspiration level is the variable we're using here to discern how much players love the game, then Ive seen some Giannis workout pics that Bucks fans might disapprove of. :roll:

Dudley's gone, I still think we could use another forward off the bench even as just a 12th-13th guy. Omri Casspi maybe? Drawing a blank.

Wizards yeesh.

They could use a good tank but I don't even know if that's what their intention is.

The Bulls have actually had a really nice offseason for a change.

Not that this person is still out there to get, but Id rather have someone who isnt such a waste of space on offense.

Would love to have Igoudala too.

Bunch of reports are saying Lakers but we know how biases go in that department.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith said the following on his radio show Monday:

"He has basically -- according to sources -- informed everybody he's going to work out a buyout and then go to the Lakers.

"So Andre Iguodala is planning on joining the Lakers from what we're being told. I don't know how true that is, whether or not it is going to definitively happen.

"But that is the plan at this particular moment in time."

That's fair. He's not afraid of the moment though and can be a secondary ball handler if needed.

The Lakers failed to keep total silence. They did not comply.

Agreed. They just need to trade Lavine away and they’ll be golden.

This 100%. We could be in a tied G7, last possession, and Iggy hasn't played all series. But put him in there and I'd feel irrationally confident.

LOL @Perk translating his journeyman career into being plugged in to every superstar in the league.

Dude has a lot of inside sources. He’s at least better than Ryan Hollins.

He's played with nearly every superstar in the league older than 25 and been a glue guy. No real surprise he's connected. Deandre Jordan will probably do the same thing if he wants when he is done.

Pretty obvious which star he's tight with. He made a bunch of podcasts unlistenable during the finals.

Many of us if given the opportunity would do the same with the Bucks. Can’t hate him for it.


Not true. Grew up in LA but was a fan of Iverson. Not the Lakers.
