NBA Confidential

I make NBA YouTube videos

I’m gonna keep reposting my statement because it never misses.

🗣️🎙️🔊

“Athletes took all the media jobs from journalists and used to say that we didn’t know what we were talking about, all for athletes to get into media to prove that they don’t know what they’re talking about.”

Stein: Kawhi Leonard trade to Raptors isn't being held up by the NBA.

Clippers and Raptors are "free at any time" to co-submit for league approval.

[CP3REGION @CP3REGION]

Insanely disrespectful franchise

They deserve the worst

[Progress Bar 2026 @ProgressBar202_]

2026 is 69% complete.

this is the kind of design costume designers make to tell you who are the bad guys in a space movie

BTW, this is why a lot of European allies are unlikely to help Trump in his military adventures -- democracies are run by elected politicians. And Trump has foolishly gone out of his way to make himself intensely unpopular in those countries. Yet he's shocked and offended by the consequences of his choices.

[Lebron Q. Septa @dropkick_murray]

This shows the differences between MJ and LeBron’s games. MJ was more of a score first gambling addict. LeBron’s much more comfortable creating (gambling addiction) for others

Kawhi Leonard, through his new agent, Harrison Gaines, issues statement:

“Integrity and respect for this game are fundamental to who I am. I accept full responsibility for lapses in judgment by people within my inner circle and regret the distraction this situation has caused the fans and my family.  

I entered into my contract with the Clippers as well as the agreements in question in good faith, fully committed to fulfilling my obligations and with no knowledge of any intent on anyone's part to circumvent the salary cap.  

For 15 years, my priority has been giving everything to my family, the game, and those I share the court with. As I return to Toronto, I am focused on what I can control, closing this chapter, and moving forward with a clean slate."

Congrats Pablo.

[David Dennis Jr. @DavidDTSS]

Clippers did all that circumventing and the only trophy that came of it was Pablo's pulitzer

[Oluwajomiloju @JomiAdeniran]

Kawhi to Steve Ballmer

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

The NBA's rulings are final -- there is no formal appeal or arbitration process available to the Clippers with the league. LA's only outlet to fight the punishment is in court.

[Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski]

The Timberwolves (of the past) approve of the Clippers punishment

[🐢✨America Is Musty✨🐢 @DragonflyJonez]

Remember ESPN dropped that story saying the NBA’s investigation of the Clips found no wrongdoing then the NBA said that’s not true then ESPN released a statement like “yeah we tried contacting the NBA but no one got back to us”

What the FUCK type of journalism was that

[Automatic @automaticnba]

yep so for Kawhi and PG the clippers essentially gave up:

- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
- Danilo Gallinari
- 10 1st round picks (1 became JDub)
- 2 pick swaps
- $30 million

😭😭😭
