Let's Just Be Real

@TheDunkCentral @NFGShow @NBA__Courtside Paul Pierce is generally retarded when it comes to basketball takes

Paul Pierce believes the Wizards will be better than the Pacers next season “I think that AD is better than any player on the Pacers. And I think Trae Young is just as good as Tyrese Haliburton” (🎥 @NFGShow / h/t @NBA__Courtside )

@LegionHoops @RoadTrippinShow Kuzma, Hart, Ingram, Randle, even Caruso. Many close to if not all-star status

@LegionHoops @RoadTrippinShow I think the bigger problem was they prioritized ALL of the veterans and totally disregarded both him and Wiseman. Maybe they're both busts, but it's no different than LeBron getting all the young talent from the Lakers traded and many have come into their own on new teams

Kendrick Perkins says the Warriors gave up on Jonathan Kuminga too soon: “We knew that Jonathan Kuminga had a high ceiling. Steph Curry knew it, Draymond Green knew it, Jimmy Butler knew it. The only person that didn’t believe was Steve Kerr.” (via @RoadTrippinShow, h/t @NBA__Courtside)

@LegionHoops @realapp Did he also do all the bitching and complaining? I hear he does all of that

Luka Doncic literally did it all tonight for the Lakers. 41, 8, and 8. Wasn’t enough to beat Collin Gillespie. (@realapp)

@LegionHoops Doing what? Losing games? I really wish we'd stop acknowledging/glorifying/talking about guys that dont contribute to winning in a team sport. It gives any impressionable kid some sense of reality that if they just do really good, that's all that matters. Breeds selfishness

Russell Westbrook has dropped 20+ in back-to-back games Still doing it. Respect.

@TheDunkCentral @TheWestbrookEra The only thing he's ever said that I'd probably agree too. Dude is a freak of nature

Russell Westbrook says he’s the most athletic player ever 👀 “Don’t even question that. Better check the numbers.” (🎥 @TheWestbrookEra )

@LegionHoops @OnyxOdds It's not really that difficult when you tank for 3 years straight and draft talented players

54 games into the season, the Detroit Pistons: Had the NBA’s WORST record in 2024… and now have the NBA’s BEST record in 2026. Un-freakin-believable team. (@OnyxOdds)

@esidery If you're going this route then just make it so teams can't draft top 8 in consecutive seasons, outside of owning other teams picks of course

One of the NBA’s potential anti-tanking proposals garnering some discussion is no team being allowed a top-4 pick if they made the conference finals the season prior. After already being fined $100k, it appears the NBA office could be making a rule closely based off the Pacers.

@LegionHoops @ShamsCharania @flasportsbuzz That's fucking dumb. Like I said in a previous post, make all odds for the 1st pick of the worst 14 teams the same. Teams will stop trying to lose constantly and it would open opportunity for young players to get playing time because they arent necessarily trying to win or lose

DEVELOPING: The NBA is discussing creating a tournament among lottery teams to determine draft order in order to stop tanking. (via @ShamsCharania, h/t @flasportsbuzz)

@TheDunkCentral @KevinOConnor Losing in some form or another intentionally will always happen. Get rid of all odds from the draft lottery. Give every team with the 14 worst records the same odds at number 1. It'll force them to try just enough at some point to attempt to win games

There’s growing support for a potential rule that would freeze NBA draft lottery odds at a certain point in the season, meaning losses after that date wouldn’t affect lottery positioning, per @KevinOConnor The date could change each year and might not be revealed until after the season to discourage tanking.

@TheDunkCentral Yeah, GSW fucked all those draft picks without a doubt. Wiseman was a bust, Moody is underwhelming, and they just tried to fuck over Kuminga any chance they could get. Poole is just like Klay. Can only thrive and be given a ton of credit under more talented players

Wow.

@LegionHoops Maybe the Knicks and Cavs? Swap centers+assets?

I’m hearing a big trade could be going down tonight. Out of left field. Make sure your notifications are on.

@elonmusk @nypost It's retarded how people keep making comments relating to "stolen land" when all land has only ever been conquered by one group of people and then another and so on. It's purely nonsensical unless you're trying to win brownie points for stupidity

@nypost She’s such a hypocrite!

@BleacherReport Why even try to go for it if you're the coach? There's literally no point. It'd just hit the table anyways

LaMelo Ball went down after he and his HC Charles Lee collided while both going for a loose ball 😳 Hope he's OK 🙏

@LegionHoops I personally think a teams winning percentage should be the most important reference to players eligibility for the all star game. A lot less tanking cause All-star caliber players wont want to lose/will demand trades far more often. Ownerships will begin avoiding tanking

@TheDunkCentral @CP3REGION CP is starting to get Westbrook energy about him thinking he was far more important to a roster than he actually was

CP3 laughs at a fan after they point out that the Clippers are 16–3 in their last 19 games “😂🫡” (h/t @CP3REGION )

@TheDunkCentral @BannedMacMahon Id consider a Day'Ron Sharpe and MPJ at the Nets for Reeves and Ayton. Maybe some picks would have to be thrown in here and there but I could see something work. Lakers just need an effective Big

Big men across the NBA are lining up to play with Luka Dončić in LA, per @BannedMacMahon “They have the fact they’re the Los Angeles Lakers, and I can just tell you, big men will do back flips to be able to be in that Lakers uniform paired with Luka. I was talking to an agent who’s got a big man who may or may not be on the move and he would love to get his guy in L.A. Big men are going to want to play with Luka that much I can assure you.” (Via nbcsports.com/nba/news/nba-t…)

@BleacherReport He traveled

BRONNY TOOK FLIGHT IN CLEVELAND 👑🔥 LeBron was loving it 🥹

@TheDunkCentral @ramonashelburne @ESPNLosAngeles Whether he did or didnt, Bronny already has the namesake and sells tix. Pairing Bronny with his dad just makes for an intriguing, continuous story that engages fans across sports

LeBron James reportedly didn’t ask the Lakers to draft Bronny James, per @ramonashelburne (Via @ESPNLosAngeles )

@JJWatt My guess is his reputation at UNC along with his over-involved 24-year-old GF may have something to do with it. His "NFL career accolades" part isn't the issue. Although, he did suck balls after TB12 left

I can’t be reading this right. This has to be some knock-off Hall of Fame or something, it can’t be the actual NFL Hall of Fame. There is not a single world whatsoever in which Bill Belichick should not be a First-Ballot Hall of Famer.
