Kevin Bai

@JoshEberley This coming from a guy who's had Kevin Love, AD, Kyrie, Wade, Bosh, Luka, Reaves in his career as his teammates and still has a losing record in the finals lol. He just beat Houston whose best player was...Amen Thompson?

Without Shaq or Pau, he never won a series against anyone, just fwiw. Y’all getting carried away with this 50-win thing.

@MarzTalksSports So he went to Europe to literally do nothing then lol

The grade 2 Hamstring tear isnt close to being healed in a month 🤯

@dubsonlysports He isn't the favorite because bettors don't trust him lol. Kobe went against the Boston big three and was still the favorite

LeBron was only favored in 3 of his 10 finals appearances btw He won 4…

@dubsonlysports Houston was playing without arguably their two best players in KD and FVV, and a third starter in Adams. They probably still should've won, but they were nowhere near full strength

MJ never won a playoff series without Pippen LeBron just won one without Luka/AR against a 52 win team with a 14% chance to win before the series…. at 41

@_onlyscott Deco

I see Samuel Eto, Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi. Guess the fourth player. Level: Extremely Hard

@SloHoopsFan When they win it’s all LeBron, when they lose LeBron gets no blame. Same shit different day from the biggest phony in nba history

Like clockwork, Rich Paul already with excuses for LeBron, because he’s expecting the biggest choke job in history. Sorry, pal. That’s not how it works.

@_onlyscott Ze roberto

I see Adriano, Ronaldo, Robinho, Cafu, Carlos and Kaka. Guess the last player. Level: Extremely Hard

@LegionHoops That should apply to agents too, so stfu rich Paul

Rich Paul doesn’t think blowing a 3-0 lead to the Rockets will affect LeBron’s legacy: “LeBron’s legacy is etched in stone since 2016… I see a lot of guys on shows who talk. I want to come up with a rule, if you weren’t better than the player you’re talking about, you shouldn’t be able to talk about him. That’d eliminate 99.9% of the ex players that talk about him.” (via Game Over Pod, h/t @NBA__Courtside)

@NBA__Courtside Jordan is an older guy who’s busy with like a million things in his life. Why does he have to acknowledge LeBron James every time he makes a lay up? Thats for useless morons like nick wright

Nick Wright on the lack of relationship between Michael Jordan and LeBron James: “Just my speculation here. I think that Jordan became less and less comfortable with LeBron’s place in the basketball ecosystem as LeBron started getting closer and closer and closer to becoming the people’s choice for greatest player ever. I always felt one of the reasons Jordan embraced Kobe was not only did Kobe model his entire game and at times his persona after Jordan, it was very clear relatively early that Kobe was never going to, like Kobe’s ceiling in the eyes of the majority was going to be second to Jordan. And so Jordan felt comfortable putting his arms around him. There was no threatening of his stature. And it’s not lost on anyone that people had been trying to make the last dance forever. That footage had been around forever and Jordan did not okay it until two days after the 3-1 comeback against the Warriors. The story is that it was the day of the Cavs parade that Jordan finally green lit that. So I think there’s always been a little uncomfortableness, but I think it is very interesting that LeBron is saying, “I hope I made him proud.” (Via @WhatsWrightShow)

@NBAGeneralist_ It's a little bit underwhelming but it depends on how they fill the rest of the roster. If they get a bunch of good deals for the rest of the roster, then we are better team overall

if i told you the Lakers get: Peyton Watson Rob Williams Draft Morez Johnson Jr But lose: Lebron James Rui Hachimura What would your reaction be?

@Yinoma2001 He is not getting bought out. Wizards just traded assets for him a few months ago, they are going to at least ride it out for this year to see where it goes to not look stupid. We probably wouldn't have enough cap space in future years to sign him if he does get a buy out

@slifersd Right. So if he's bought out, I would offer him like 2 years at 25m/year (he would be getting the rest from the Wiz on the buyout). But I wouldn't start negotiating his next deal.

Seeing lots of Lakers fans in my TL saying they would trade for AD. That's insanity. He's owed a lot of $ getting out of that deal given his age/injuries was a great move. Only way AD is back for me is in a buyout. Lakers could then offer say 25-30m/year which I would do.

@SleeperNFL @RichEisenShow that doesn't explain anything lol. Everybody and their mother know 49ers view him highly, the question is, is he worth the hype of just an over-valuation by a team that's had its struggles with the draft in recent years

Kyle Shanahan said Kaelon Black was the RB2 on the 49ers’ board. (@RichEisenShow)

@TrevorLane Load management is doing such a great job keeping everyone healthy lol. Can't believe everyone doesn't do it

The injuries this season have been so brutal. MIN already has Ant and Donte out. I'm pulling for DEN to complete the comeback just so Spurs see a slightly healthier team in round 2

@PlayoffDude Well, they had to trade him to "win now", like a bunch of the fans are screaming for them to do right now. this is the potential downside risk of that strategy

Jaden McDaniels is a legit elite two-way player and the Lakers actually had him at one point, man.

@iMiaSanMia Complete liability at this point. Absolutely garbage performances the last two cl games. If anything they shouldn’t want to extend him

Manuel Neuer's agent Thomas Kroth was at Bayern's offices at Säbener Straße today for talks over the goalkeeper's future. Neuer has now clearly indicated that he wants to continue next season. Therefore, Kroth has come to Munich to begin concrete negotiations with Bayern Financial details still need to be clarified. With an estimated annual salary of around €20million, Neuer is one of Bayern's highest earners. Given the planned reduction in his playing time next time in favour of Jonas Urbig, a salary cut would normally be expected. However, Neuer's importance as a leader and his enormous contributions to the club argue in favor of keeping his salary unchanged. It is now up to Neuer's agent, Kroth, and Bayern bosses to find a solution regarding his salary [@BILD]

@GlbalMadridista @MadridUniversal @ASAgustinMartin Thats the inherent risk of signing 18 year olds. They wouldn’t have a long enough track record to evaluate on so u r gambling on growth

@MadridUniversal @ASAgustinMartin Crazy. I think it’s fair to say we vastly overpaid for him.

🚨 In case Franco Mastantuono wants to return to River on loan, Real Madrid might consider it. The club prefers that he stays in Europe, but they don't rule out a loan to River. — @ASAgustinMartin

@TheDunkCentral You mean you want to sit court side 20 years lol

Anthony Davis says his goals before retiring are to play 20 years, win MVP, win DPOY, and another championship “I haven’t got MVP. I haven’t got Defensive Player of the Year. I want the parade for a championship, so I want to be able to do that again… it’s still things I want to try to get. I want to get 20,000 points. I want to play 20 years.” (Via hoopshype.com/story/sports/n…)

@UnderdogNBA That trip back to Europe was about as useful as used toilet paper

Shams: Luka Doncic expected to be out to begin Conference Semifinals if Lakers advance to play Thunder. There is still no clarity on a timeline for his return.

@RealEmirHan She also married some rich guy so could afford to quit lol

Jessica Alba almost quit acting after Fantastic Four 2. She cried so real in this death scene that the director said: “Can you cry prettier? We’ll CGI the tears.” Alba thought: “F*ck it. I don't care about this business anymore.'"
