Last night, I was up late watching some analysis of the Russell Westbrook trade and listening in on some Lakers Twitter spaces (which are the an absolute riot, by the way). I was just about to fall asleep when someone in the Twitter space said the Nets and Suns were nearing a deal for Kevin… Read More 🚨 Kevin Durant Has Been Traded to the Nets | Thoughts on the New and Improved LA Lakers
LeBron has become the all-time scoring king in NBA regular season history. He’s held the record for combined playoff and regular season points for a while now, but Kareem’s 38,387 number is the one that is really the gold standard. It’s crazy that this moment has already arrived. I feel like it was yesterday I… Read More 🐐 LeGOAT 🐐
I started working on this post on Friday and wrote a whole bunch about Kyrie’s potential fit with the Lakers, but I swear I included a part at the end where I said a trade to the Mavericks would make a lot of sense. This is what I wrote on Friday in my draft: “While… Read More Kyrie has been traded to the Mavericks 👀
This video is very well made and exposes Woj for what he is: a PR mouthpiece for his friends around the league. And a first-rate LeBron hater. I never knew about all his Yahoo columns about LeBron from the 2000s. Wow. Woj might be a bigger LeBron hater than Skip and Screamin’ A Smith. I… Read More Woj Is a Snake
It’s becoming increasingly clear that the Nets’ preference right now is to simply run it back with the roster they have. This is why there haven’t been any trades despite KD requesting out in early July. This is the reason the Nets don’t like any of the offers that have been made for both KD… Read More The Nets Are in Denial
It took about two weeks for LeBron to sign the extension he was eligible to sign starting August 4: This jibes with a lot of what we’ve been seeing lately: that LeBron is very happy where he is, he’s on good terms with the Lakers front office, and he wants to remain a Laker. I… Read More LeBron Signs 2 year, $97 million Extension with LA Lakers; Russ Trade Imminent?
NBA.com has clutch shooting statistics for every season dating back to 1997. So which player is the king of clutch? I wanted a large sample size, so I chose LeBron, Kobe, KD and Steph. I compiled numbers for both the regular season and playoffs. What we are looking at here is total points scored in… Read More Who’s the Clutch King of the NBA?
I don’t think KD’s request that’s the Nets fire Steve Nash and Sean Marks is the full story. I wrote a post over a month ago, right when KD first demanded a trade out of Brooklyn, that I thought KD was trying to “break up” with Kyrie without actually explicitly saying or doing so—in other… Read More More Evidence KD Wants out of Brooklyn Because of Kyrie
So KD has not backed off his trade request, and he has made his demands clearer: I am not sure why KD specifically wants Nash and Marks fired. It probably explains it in the Athletic article but I’m not paying for to read it. ESPN is not reporting it at all. There’s nothing about this… Read More KD Delivers Ultimatum to Nets Owner Joe Tsai: Either Fire Steve Nash & Sean Marks, or Trade Me
We may be nearing another Celtics-Nets blockbuster trade that will define each franchise for years to come, only this time, I’m not so sure the Celtics are going to be the ones making out like bandits. I don’t know why I didn’t see this coming. The Celtics were an obvious choice for a KD trade.… Read More Report: Celtics Emerging As Strong Contenders in KD Trade Talks
