+ two players you select with Wizards 2nds in draft. You'd then have space for 3 minimums or 2 minimums and one slightly above minimum, all while being under 2nd apron still.
49ers can’t score in the RZ.
49ers have the “Offensive Guru” Kyle Shanahan as their HC
49ers are the only team ITL without a Rushing TD
CMC has played every game
CMC leads the league in touches
CMC is on pace for 430+ touches
I’m supposed to be ok with Kyle?
If I’m Luka, I’m not extending this offseason. Period. I feel no loyalty to a team I just joined against my will.
That doesn’t mean he should absolutely leave. It means the Lakers should have to prove they deserve him. Give them a year to build a contender. If they can’t? Walk.
Matt Barnes on the Latest Kobe Disrespect 🔥🔥
"None of you guys was talking this 💩 when he was here, and the would of, could of, should of, and the disrespect with the Pau should have won, its like come on man. Lets really remember, lets look at the numbers, to me Kobe is the 2nd best player of All Time, Period. For some reason people want to knock his greatness because he played with Shaq but they dont knock Magics greatness when he played with Kareem, they dont knock Lebrons greatness when he played with Dwade and Bosh, they dont knock Lebrons greatness when he played with AD"
