@hmfaigen All it took to get people to stop talking about the Clippers and Aspiration was to send Chris Paul home. Steve Ballmer is pissed they didn't think of it sooner. ๐
Clearly, the 2003-04 championship won by Chauncey Billups and the Detroit Pistons has now been tainted and should be retroactively awarded to the Lakers
What if Kobe Bryant wouldโve joined LeBron James in Cleveland? ๐
In 2007, the NBA world almost shifted forever.
Kobe wanted out of LA, and if the Lakers actually pulled the trigger, he couldโve landed with the Cavs alongside a 22-year-old LeBron James fresh off his first Finals run ๐คฏ
Two generational forces, one city starving for a title.
Shaq and Kobe were unstoppable once, but LeBron and Kobe? Thatโs a dynasty waiting to happen.
How many rings would they have won together? ๐ค
Bradley Beal explains why he signed with the Clippers
"Who Steve Ballmer is, how he operates, and what he stands for... Their pitch was honestly just better."

At this point, I think NBA fans would be more interested in watching the Clippers execs being deposed live at center court of the Intuit Dome instead of watching some half-baked All-Star game played under another new set of rules to try to make it competitive.
The NBA does not expect to have a resolution on the Kawhi Leonard salary cap circumvention investigation until after the All-Star Game.
The #Clippers host the All-Star Game.
Clippers owner Steve Ballmer made a second, previously unknown, investment into Aspiration in March 2023 for $9.999 million, while the company was struggling financially and just months after an investment by Clippers vice chairman Dennis Wong. https://t.co/iKssT8bDP6
@hmfaigen All I know is that Leo, RDJ, and Drake are falling over themselves trying to get Uncle Dennis to represent them in future endorsement contract negotiations
