        It's actually kinda cool too, to see current NBA players interested in the Big3

          We can debate all we want about the better player, MJ or Lebron, but Lebron has MJ beat as an exec.
          It's crazy how Michael is the only owner in the league that takes 100% blame for what happens on his team. Charlotte has a GM but **** goes down and it's Michael is terrible as an executive. When Charlotte first started making decent moves in his ownership, Rich Cho got all the credit and every bad move that happens just gets slapped on MJ.

          Anyway my man Woj gonna get his props for breaking this and being right or we gonna get silent like we usually do when he's right about something? Keep that same energy is all I'm saying

            Woj is good at breaking news, even if he is sometimes late behind Shams.

            All that other stuff he does is questionable. The hit piece articles were always funky going all the way back to early Yahoo sports.


            This fight Lakers fans are having with him on social media is popcorn fodder.

              I can be wrong but I don't get paid to be right.


              My opinion is you let other teams bid on Rozier and get him to sign an offer sheet and then Boston can tie up that team's cap space for three days.


              Benefits are it could be a team directly competing with Boston and Boston can go screw them over.



              For anyone that thinks it'll look bad to players, let's remember that this is Boston and no one believes Boston cares about the players anymore (even if that's a myth).

                They should have traded Kemba if they weren't going to give him full max. They could have gotten at least some young talent to develop or at least some 1st round picks. With just Monk and Bridges, nothing else to do but to tank.
                I wouldn't be surprised if we don't hear a few more signing within next 24 hour hours before it actually starts.

                  Orlando Magic will decline qualifying offer on PG Jerian Grant, per source.

                      Like it's one thing if it's "Kemba Walker and the Celtics have strong mutual interest and will likely reach a deal when the moratorium begins"

                      But when it's "Kemba Walker and the Celtics will agree on a 4-year $141M maximum contract," then it's like what's the point? Just embrace it if you're going to let it happen
                      Yeah, like when almost two weeks ago it was reported that Al Horford as a 4yr/$112m offer from another team? Maybe Boston was like "screw them rules" at that point.

                      Or maybe Tatum doing work right under Jordan's nose? 20190629_163327.jpg

                        So tired of people whining about "tampering." Get over it. Guys are going where they want to go.

                          Dubcity the moratorium hasn't even started yet.

                          How can you agree to a full contract deal when free agency hasn't begun, which means guys are still apart of team X until that time.

                              Maybe just remove the moratorium and let players and teams talk as soon as the season finishes. Tampering will happen in some way or another regardless. What’s ridiculous is the tip toeing that has to be done during the season when reporters are looking for an answer to a loaded question and players have to pretend that other players don’t even exist.

                                Free agent Kyrie Irving is meeting with the Brooklyn Nets in New York on Sunday and both sides are motivated to move quickly toward reaching a 4-year, $141M deal, league sources tell ESPN.
