I don't think Kobe was ever the face of the league. I'm not sure there *always is* a face of the league. Who would that even be, today? MJ...
I think it makes sense to keep Jeanie around as one of the faces of the franchise for now. Being the governor largely means she'll be representing...
Actually, no, I can't imagine a world where AD doesn't get hurt.
Wow. What a great game from Nick “Who?” Smith Jr.
I second this. Let’s just all get on the same page and root for Balmer, Kawhi and the Clippers to go down in flames.
The contract is definitely part and parcel of a fraud that is being perpetrated against the league, but that doesn't mean the contract itself is...
Yeah man, maybe my brain is just cooked from litigating fraud and RICO for the last 15 years and I can't think in layman's terms any more, but...
You don't have to prove either of these two things to prove that the Clippers/Kawhi circumvented the cap.
This isn't about legalities. It's whether or not Kawhi/The Clipper circumvented the CBA. It doesn't have to be illegal. I'm sorry but these...
He didn't lose that money if he invested it for the specific purpose of paying Kawhi under the table. WE haven't seen this document, but it's...
Catching up on a few days of messages re Kawhi/Ballmer/Aspiration and I wanted to address one piece of this that a few people seem to be getting...
Balmer does not strike me as the type of person who would invest $50 million into a company and then completely ignore where that money was going...
Yeah dude, exactly. If its provable that Ballmer's money ended up in Kawhi's pocket through this arrangement . . . YIIIIIIIIIIIKES
I don't know about this getting swept under the rug. If there are any (non-calcified) legs to this story, it's a huge deal. A blatant violation of...
Sorry, what did I miss re Simmons? People are on here talking like he's coming to the Lakers. Did I miss something?
Disagree. Second rounders are a regular currency in NBA deals. We currently have one tradable second rounder. That’s not good.
Yes. Most of the recent off seasons have been really stressful for me. The problem is not losing DFS. The problem is paying a significant price...
It’s hard to stay patient while watching the players we need getting scooped up by other teams while we flounder and let guys like DFS, for whom...
No offense taken but I’m done waiting. I cannot remember the last time free agency wasn’t a string of embarrassments for the Lakers. At least...
Good luck with that, bro.
