@vinaykillawala I agree we need 3 bigs and also that one of the 3 needs to be a floor spacer
For obvious versatility reasons BUT ALSO
Because I selfishly want to see juussstt a handful of minutes of Jax as a supersized wing out there every now and then, and a spacing big *could* allow that
Today it's now been 7 years since Etika passed away. Time has gone by so fast but the Joycon Boyz still continue to think about you every day. Rest in power Etika, we will never forget the impact you had on all of us. Please take care of yourselves. #JOYCONBOYZFOREVER🖤🦋
There is a salary cap in the NBA, there is NOT a talent cap
Championships are won by having players who’s production exceeds their cap allocation
I think LeBron James on a discount is a very good thing
Same with Marcus at the $9M Room Exception Or Luka at $49M
Absolutely loved this rant by @AnthonyIrwinLA
“Oh, thanks for your input LeBum” killed me 😂
Agree with 100% of what Anthony is saying here
LeBron James is really fucking good, showed that he’s willing to take a step back for Luka+AR, and ~$20M is a great deal for him
they won. you're afraid of your neighbours and fellow workers instead of the bourgeoisie, who steal the equivalent value of that computer from you over and over and over until you die. they own you completely
silently crying in the back of my uber and the driver turned around and gave me this stick of gum before saying in broken english “u will be okay tomorrow, today u can be sad”
@GeorgeLarrence At the end of the day he IS a role player
It’s not a negative term
Rudy Gobert is technically a role player
OG Anunoby is too
Aaron Gordon too
So there is precedent of paying incredibly elite roleplayers 35M+, I just get weary of that number since he’s a little less unproven
I’m like right at 50/50 between
“I’m not paying $35M for a role player center”
Vs.
“Fuck it just lock in my center for the Luka era and let me not have to think about this position”
@Reid8444@lukadoncic It’s okay
Ayton is gonna sign somewhere else
LaRavia young inexperienced failure to seasoned difference maker redemption arc is on its way
And Bam boutta be sitting in the corner shooting 3s from Giannis kick outs
Hey @lukadoncic,
Can you recruit Robert Williams III, Quentin Grimes, and Kelly Oubre Jr. this summer the same way you did with Ayton and Smart last summer?
Appreciate it, thanks.
With kindness,
@GreyRaj_
I think all fanbases do this of course, but Laker fans ESPECIALLY seem to:
-hear a pitch for another team’s role player and why he’s a “perfect fit”
-proceed to NOT watch said player actually play (LOL)
-never adjust their view on them ever again
Happening rn with Ware too
1) Austin is getting paid LAST because of his cap hold only being $20M, so this doesn’t even make sense, Bron would have to get paid less
2) I promise you Bron doesn’t think it’s disrespectful that the player he’s brought up for THIS very moment is now getting that moment
"If Austin Reaves gets paid... then there's not enough money for LeBron to feel respected, and then I could see him going up the coast to the Warriors."
