    You know, folks have questioned Beasley before but I took it as disgruntled gamblers. We will see.

    randle for 3/100 and harden for 2/80.

    all these teams wrapping up their own FAs before the bell rings...

    Lakers are clearly working on a trade for a center. We see the non activity.

    as for Lebron. He’s trying to access winning his best shot at a championship is San Antonio.

    He’ll have Wambyana Cleveland would have to give us Allen and Hunter maybe we ask for Mobley. But those wining players would be traded in the trade.

    So we’ll see. Personally it’s a very polite way of saying F around and find out.

    so let’s see what the front office has in store.

    nobody said we weren’t competing for a championship this season. Maybe I missed something.

    So aggressively try to get Deandre Ayton to appease LeBron while keeping your flexibility for 2026.

    Deron Sharpe would be a nice pickup Sharpe and Jaxson Hayes. Sharpe and Paul Reed.

    I’m sure the Lakers don’t want to overpay for Deron Sharpe.

    Doreen Finney Smith has value as a 3-D and his agent must be hearing things about teams wanting that Wing. Can’t over pay him with still thinking of paying Austin Reaves in the back of your mind.

    Doreen Finney Smith isn’t a great scorer. Was horrible shooting the ball. Just getting offense in general. I was expecting alot more the guy from Dallas and Brooklyn.

    was kind of disappointed by the playoffs. I expect the Lakers to make a huge bid to bring him back. And they should he’s very important to what they do. Make sure it’s reasonable.

    What does this guy want??? 3yrs 75 million???

    well should be interesting. Keep the updates coming.

    as for LeBron come on man. We did do LeBron a favor drafting Bronny so he could play with his son. I hope that’s being considered.

    still seems like there’s some saltiness from the Anthony Davis trade for Luka trade in Lebrons camp.

    Any trade with Lebron going to Cleveland will would involve Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen coming back.

    which is why it makes no sense from the cavs POV. and that's ignoring the fact that they'd be over the second apron if they acquired lebron

    no title contending team is going to trade key pieces for 40 year old lebron

    Agreed. Don’t want his dirty play on this team.

    I'd think long and hard if I were NY. Their best chance in decades is probably next year when the C Bags are non-factors and the East seems wide open.

    It's a no brainer for NYK imo. Should be a slam dunk.

    I really hope we find a way to keep DFS. He’s a great 3 and D guy and has chemistry with Luka. It would also be malpractice to have given up 3 2nd round picks just to rent him

    I'd take Al Horford for a year. He was still getting it done last season. I think he'd want at least the TPMLE however which would make it hard to sign any other center around him.
