@WadePlem It was reported over a month ago by Netflix themselves that it was a real sanctioned boxing match only to have Floyd come out recently and insist on it as an "exhibition" to completely backing out of it. It only made sense as a real fight. Waste of time and buildup. Oh well.

😂😂😂😂

@fighthype Had a feeling. It was reported Floyd came out of retirement to fight a real sanctioned match over a month ago why wait until now to insist on exhibition to only end up backing out of it completely. Waste of time and buildup tbh. Oh well

Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2 is CANCELLED More details to follow…

@JSMonYT Ya maybe next season. He needs to get back in the lab and get his shooting confidence back.

Imagine how good Jake Laravia would be if he could be a consistent 35%+ 3pt shooter with this level of defense he’s been showing

@InsideRingShow @MikeCoppinger Floyd why.. Even though most analysts still think he's the favorite he seems to be slowly backing out..

The Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao rematch is contracted to be a professional fight at the Sphere in Las Vegas, Team Pacquiao has confirmed to @MikeCoppinger. Mayweather previously made comments this past weekend stating the fight is an exhibition, with the Sphere not being finalized as the venue.

@deadboylyfee Sounds about right tbh. Maybe another team gives slightly higher but in that ballpark.

Rui take that 3yrs/$24M big bro

@LALMuse I can't find the defensive metric that lists him at 115.6. I see him at 113.6 defensive rating w/ Jaylen Brown not far behind at 112.5. The defensive discrepancy narrative between the 2 isn't accurate this season. Lakers also have a much better defensive rating w/ him versus w/o

Chris Mannix, who has an MVP vote is using a stat that isn’t an individual measure to “prove" why Luka is a bad defender He puts Jokic in his “Tier 1” right after 😂

@isaiahthomas ..lot more comfortable shooting the mid-range and shoots more of them (pump fake, one-legged fade-aways/turn arounds) and plays at an even slower pace which probably helps his game translate better in the playoffs.

@isaiahthomas There are certainly similarities but I don't think Luka specifically modeled his game after Harden. Harden didn't breakout until 2012-13 and Luka became a pro in Spain in 2015-16 so there's not much turn around. I suppose he could have still took inspiration although Luka is a...

There’s no Luka if James harden doesn’t exist… James harden changed the game and he doesn’t get enough credit. Luka plays exactly how prime harden played in Houston. And the you couldn’t stop NOTHING!!!! Real hoop game with manipulation of the game to go in they favor OMG

@jbondwagon @LegionHoops @PTI @TheNBABase Jaylen's defense this season hasn't even been much better than Luka's and I'm not even joking. Luka has been better than his negative defensive narrative and Jaylen hasn't been as good defensively as seasons prior.

@LegionHoops @PTI @TheNBABase He lost me at “Jaylen Brown one” 😭🤣

Michael Wilbon on the MVP race: “I have a vote in this. And I will tell you it’s tightened up… I think it’s Jaylen Brown one, SGA two, and Victor three. And then don’t talk to me about a guy who plays half the court, Luka Dončić.” (via @PTI, h/t @TheNBABase)

@Kick_Champ Ya highly doubt that's teeth. Most likely sweat or vaseline or snot. That happens a lot especially towards the end of fights. Also both seemed to lose balance from exhaustion and don't think either were severely hurt, despite the commentary.

Blueface had his TEETH KNOCKED OUT and was COMPLETELY OUT OF IT after getting ROCKED by Chibu on Brand Risk #13 😳

@MarioNawfal He obviously didn't want to answer because the interviewer is clearly a prick with terrible energy trying to get clicks.

Of course he’s America First It shouldn’t be a hard question to answer, but at the same time he just doesn’t want to get dragged into toxic politics

@Ralph_MasonJr Advanced stats are not an agenda & it's not a small sample size. Since Luka was acquired Lebron's on/off + impact stats have all been much lower comparatively to just Luka + Reaves. Lebron is an all-time great but claiming they are better w/ him despite the evidence is an agenda.

Bron is not coming off the bench Bron is a huge part of this Lakers team Bron is absolutely needed for Lakers to reach whatever their ceiling is this yr Guys let’s please stop the constant toxicity and agendas after damn near every game #Lakeshow

@thatguybix9 True, I miscalculated.

@ConcernedC5 This would put him at 36m AAV and every year would be over 30mil

I wonder if Reaves would be willing to sign a descending contract. Starting him at 40m and ending at 32m would be the best path forward for a team building process. 5yr 180m. Pays him well and the Lakers take the biggest hit in year 1 when it affects them the least.

@Maitrxya @lebron_the5301 @willinders01 @_JasonLT Okay but it's not nearly the same implication as you think haha. So they're 2-0 against the Wolves with Luka and have the highest rated lineup with significant minutes with him leading.

@ConcernedC5 @lebron_the5301 @willinders01 @_JasonLT One of the wins was without Luka, not to pile on him tho

The Lakers are now 18-3 when Austin Reaves scores at least 20 points.

@_JasonLT ..closer to the playoffs. He's an all-time great but I doubt his role & play-style significantly changes in year 23. There will still be fit issues amongst the 3. Tweak the roles a bit & mix & match supporting players as much as possible then respectfully move on in the offseason

@_JasonLT Bron's numbers were down although he was coming off his own injury & 6 & a half months break. In the first 8 games he averaged 16.5/6/7.6 on 46.8/30.6/60.7 splits. Bron the past 3 seasons started his season way below his avgs as he paces himself & increases usage/aggressiveness..

Austin just had his first back to back 20 point games since early December. Back then, Austin literally averaged 31 ppg in the first 8 games after LeBron’s return, then he got hurt. I fully expect LeBron to adopt the same type of role when he comes back.

@lebron_the5301 @willinders01 @_JasonLT All 3 without Lebron too 😅 (not to pile on him but the advanced metrics are clear they just don't fit together)

@willinders01 @_JasonLT We’re 3-0 against them this year😭

@TheDunkCentral @EricPincus So an East Coast team that doesn't have a ball-dominant guard? IF this is true, one can assume that just leaves Milwaukee and the Heat as the frontrunners?

There’s some buzz around the NBA that Giannis Antetokounmpo doesn’t want to play with a ball-dominant guard, per @EricPincus “…some claim that Antetokounmpo misses playing with players like Jrue Holiday and Khris Middleton, who were partners in the 2021 championship run. That's not to suggest he wants to get the band back together. Still, some suggest Antetokounmpo doesn't want to play with a ball-dominant lead guard, preferring to be the primary engine driving his team's offense (Holiday and Middleton were comfortable playing without the ball around Antetokounmpo).” (h/t @Fullcourtpass / bleacherreport.com/articles/25402…)

@deadboylyfee Great player when healthy but he's simply had injuries his entire career & at this point is limited to sub 20 mpg. I'd imagine over a dozen teams will be interested in him (Lakers included) but for the vet min. Perhaps a team bumps up their offer to around $5 mil per but not more

What does his market look like in free agency this summer? Would love to sign him to be our backup Center along with Hayes for injury insurance
