It has now been two hours since the official opening of free agency and I will add this given all the movement and talk going on behind the scenes around the league.
Rich Paul has an incredibly high-leverage footprint in San Antonio with your head coach, franchise point guard De'Aaron Fox, and forward Keldon Johnson, and I know the lines of communication between James's camp and the Spurs' leadership are wide open right now.
I’m aware lots of Spurs fans do not want the distraction of LeBron James in their own backyard, but the two parties are focused on the exact same thing: Winning a championship.
A couple of insiders have said that once you strip away the shock value, putting LeBron James on the floor with Victor Wembanyama is a cheat code.
Wembanyama’s gravity and perimeter-to-rim finishing matched with LeBron’s historic processing speed and passing geometry would create the most un-guardable pick-and-roll partnership in league history.
I’m not saying it's going to happen, but the sense that I get is that adding LeBron's closing execution and championship DNA to this core is the ultimate shortcut to securing a title.
What say you?
So let me get this TT situation right.
-A retired judge made the ruling in a Lubbock county court.
-If appealed it will go before 4 court justices who have all have graduated from TT.
-The CFB playoff isn't likely to ban TT from the playoff on account that the TT President is on the committee.
-If the member schools/Big 12 try to enforce a new bylaw ruling, or if teams decide not to play them, then TT and Texas AG Ken Paxton will pursue legal action.
-Cody Campbell has donated over 6 figures to Ken Paxton's election campaign.
-Ken Paxton has been impeached for bribery, obstruction of justice and abuse of office. On top of countless accusations of fraud.
Feels like Cody Campbell has everyone in his back pocket. It just all seems a little to coincidental for my liking.
