You’re outta your fucking mind if you think this is how it shakes out lmao. Ja’s price is lower than you think. This a more realistic trade, gives Grizzles multiple young guys to play with + a pick. Atlanta needs a true big man with their style of play. Minnesota gets their PG.
So this tells me the clippers are probably swapping with the Kings back to #7. Trying to bluff so they feel the need to jump BKN (they’ll take Acuff at 6 no matter what) If Atlanta has a meeting, that means that #1 rumors for AJ are dead and Mikel Brown Jr isn’t going past 8.
Mikel Brown Jr. and his camp have shut down various pre-draft workout invites which likely signals a team has already given him a draft promise, per @BrettSiegelNBA.
Brown will meet with the Clippers and Hawks before the draft.
This guy may have the biggest baby face turn in humanity if this is the shit he’s spitting. If I came out of retirement, this is the type of game I’d be studying. Pure genius right here. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Now this sounds a whole lot fucking better. Three 1sts , Grant and Thybulle. If they want Scoot & Jeremi throw in Jordan Hawkins and we got a deal.
Trey Murphy III is a coveted player on the trade market from multiple contending teams.
The Celtics, Pacers, Thunder, and Trail Blazers are among the teams who could be mulling over submitting an aggressive offer for Murphy ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft.
No fucking way do I allow this to happen. Portland gonna have to fuck off if they try this non sense after they make the playoffs while dame recovers. I’ll go talk to the GM myself if this shit happen

The Trail Blazers are viewed as the mystery suitor in the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade sweepstakes, per @ChrisBHaynes.
Giannis would not outright say no to a potential landing spot in Portland.
The Blazers also own future Bucks draft capital via the failed Damian Lillard trade.
Former New Mexico and UCLA PG Donovan Dent is retiring from the game of basketball.. 💔
He will not pursue a professional career and rather return to New Mexico to start training youth basketball players.
At New Mexico, he was the 2024-25 Mountain West Player of the Year after averaging 20.4 PPG as a junior before transferring to UCLA.
Wishing him luck on the next chapter!

A narcissistic abuse tactic I call “Leapfrogging” is a form of predatory behavior where a narcissist targets someone they envy—often someone who possesses traits, status, or social capital the narcissist lacks or is threatened or envious of.
The malignant narcissist makes a conscious decision to destroy or discredit the target before initiating the friendship or connection. The entire relationship is a setup—an infiltration. They study their target, mimic their behavior, and mirror their values, all while planning their psychological ambush.
The goal is to get close enough to:
- Gain access to personal information, reputation, and influence.
- Undermine trust by spreading subtle lies or planting doubts in others.
- Erode the target’s confidence thru increased criticism
- Hijack the target’s identity or credibility.
Once the narcissist feels they’ve “absorbed” enough value from the target—or sees an opportunity to strike—they flip the narrative. The target becomes the problem: unstable, abusive, selfish, irresponsible, untrustworthy, etc. The narcissist positions themselves as the “true victim” or “better version,” effectively leapfrogging over the target’s social standing.
At its core, this is predatory envy in action—not just wanting what someone else has, but wanting to ruin them for having it.
