@CindyJackk@Buoyyy@ayroned It's starting to sound like you might have some type of color blindness.
You might be seeing the colors in a different frequency and therefore they don't look appealing to you.
@Tortured_Texans@onlytudz@MargielaKy@aRealJar@LylesNoah @theantedwards_ Just because you don't understand the validity and impact of the world cup, the rest of the world does. All sports separate World Champions and Olympic champions.
@texas@wojespn It's really 4x 2nd Rd picks for $5.5m.
They still would have had to pay Oladipo's and Robinson's $11.5m contracts if no trade.
Going rate for 2nd's is at least $2m, so they underpaid for these ones.
@ShamsCharania@joevardon@TheAthletic It's not really been an issue getting the best guys to play at the Olympics, it's the World Cup that they need to want to go play at
@goat85941677 @RBPhillyTake @whicares7849 @ShamsCharania Harden opted in. If he didn't want to play in Philly he didn't have to opt in and would have become a free agent. Free to sign anywhere he wanted.
Thing is he wasn't going to get similar money anywhere else. So he picked money over freedom all by himself.
@bamwagon13@natemhanson@andyblarsen I don't know what pundits he listens to, but I'm with you. I don't remember anyone saying anything negative about the Jrue trade. He was already a very good defender, which is why they traded for him.
@jeskeets They were going to fire him during the 2020-2021 season. Decided to give him the season, then the Bucks win. Can't fire a coach after winning the title. This has been coming.
@the2kmessiah@BigDawgRetro@7Bankaii@wojespn If he has to retire due to injury he gets the money. If a player just decides to retire just because, then they void their contract
@PistonsBlog @wojespn The luxury tax has become quite more complicated then it use to be. Warriors are only $40m over the luxury tax. However because they are facing the repeater tax they have to pay $176m for being $40m over.
So shedding $1.5m of that $40m is going to be of much more value then $1.5m
@NoDunksInc five players have had that (or better) statline over a 7x game span in NBA history: Big O (12x), Wilt (2x), Westbrook (7x), Luka (6x), and LeBron (1x).
Westbrook being the second oldest at 28.
