Give it 12 hours sir.  Like winter, it is coming.

That Lakers pick next year is looking good again

And we have the right to swap picks with the Kings, which is fully unprotected next year

The Legend of Hinkie will live on for quite some time

I was obviously joking, but not even getting a damn meeting with Whiteside hurts like hell.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Don't y'all worry. Ingram gon cause y'all all types of hell in the future.

Lebetard was saying this morning that Horford really likes Miami and is willing to help Riley and compromise if needed which leads him to believe Horford may be priority over Hassan. I don't really like it but stuff hits the fan sometimes and I'll be Happy for Hassan either way. Dude came from the bottom, the entire bottom; D-league to max contract

Saloot.

Well said man and I agree I'd be happy for Hassan as long as he's getting his somewhere. Incredible story and rise, and I enjoy watching his game.

As for Horford, I'd feel very satisfied if he ended up signing with us and don't think we'd drop off much if any at that position. I'd prefer Whiteside because of the potential, but Horford would fit great and is a hell of a player.

i love that no one wants to play in LA.
it hilarious to me to be honest.

Let them not sniff the play offs for the next 3 years

 

[everysingletime]

Lol. Damn it's like the players have secretly agreed to blackball LA

 

[junglejim]

Lol. Damn it's like the players    agents have secretly agreed to blackball LA

 

[lovehateself]

Lol. Damn it's like the players have secretly agreed to blackball LA

if they dont want to play in LA,

what's the remaining deal with that lakers pick?

 

[junglejim]

Top 3 protected.  Lakers also owe the magic their pick in 2019.  If the lakers keep their pick next year, the pick in 2019 goes from a first rounder to two second rounders.

I think it becomes unprotected in 2018

 

[mgrand15]

Lakers spent the last two years being a circus and they're surprised people aren't interested??

The Warriors have told people around the NBA that they're confident Kevin Durant will seriously consider joining them. GS-KD meet on Friday.

Yeah, we are seriously discussing signing Bynum and Boozer.

You got it bud, that narrative is straight fax

These durant tweets>

"Sources say durant will consider the teams who he has arranged to meet with"

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Not like this

....not like this

 

[pmatic]

@ChrisBHaynes Portland to meet with Dallas free agent Chandler Parsons in LA on July 1 with Damian Lillard in attendance, sources inform @clevelanddotcom.

 

[licensed to ball]

Yo real talk though... would Durant going to the Warriors make him more of a villain than Bron did with his decision to take his talents to the land of cuban sandwiches?
