Kevin Durant is either the worst evaluator of talent in recent NBA history, or the worst vibes as a teammate in recent NBA history
His last THREE teams have underachieved, this can't be coincidental anymore
I can’t believe I’m saying this but Rashad McCants is making some great points about this Lakers team going forward
Keep running the game thru LeBron and don’t let iso ball come back when Reaves and Luka returns. They gotta play off Bron and play team ball
@CTonTour47@raducrisanx 2 players bought for bernardo’s departure? don’t forget we still have Reinjders and Foden on the bench with Gvardiol coming back meaning Oreilly will play more midfield minutes too(Kovacic and Rico don’t play anyway they’re not even factors)
If City/Viana land the targeted players and the reported positions it’s looking like 3-5 players in depending on exits. Looking like another round of £350-400 mil injected into the squad.
That would take the total to roughly £900 million squad investment since January 2025.
Today marks 5 years since Folajimi ‘Jimi’ Olubunmi-Adewole, 20, died after heroically attempting to save a woman from drowning in the River Thames in what was described as an act of sheer bravery.
Rest in peace Folajimi Olubunmi-Adewole 🙏🏾🕊️
James Trafford: "It's obviously [been] a new experience, the first time I've had moment and experience where you're coming in for cup games.
"But the good thing about this club and this season has been we've progressed in both cups as far as we possibly could have so far.
"From the start until December, January it was quite tough because games were every month, very far between. Since January I've felt like games came a lot quicker, every two weeks, which has been better for rhythm and your own head..." [via @BBCSport]
Damian Lillard is “close” and his return before the end of the postseason is “not impossible”, per @billoram
“Any appearance would need to be in a later round or ‘deep, deep’ in the series against the Spurs”

Jeremy Doku: "I have to be more in areas where you can score easy goals, tap-ins, stuff like that.
"Sometimes in game, you get… not distracted, but you don't realise sometimes what you're doing and don't realise you're not in that position where you should be to just score easy goals. When I look at all my goals, every time it's dribbling, every time I do it myself. I just want to score… even five tap-ins, that makes a big difference.
"You should ask defenders what they think. What do they think? I'm sure they'd say that, obviously if I score, this is a different conversation that we have [now]. I believe [I can be the best] if I have goals. A winger needs to score. If I have those goals then I believe I can get there, 100%..." [via @Jack_Gaughan]
@22sken@StevenMcinerney even when foden was playing 8 he had most km ran of any player in the PL, they know how to look busy (bernardo has been fantastic OOP in the run in) i think Enzo’s on ball will be a much bigger benefit than losing bernardo’s off ball especially in terms of progression
What do we all think of this then? Obviously his form has dipped loads recently, but there was a point where he was undoubtedly one of the best midfielders in the league.
@22sken@StevenMcinerney idk if you saw how shit bernardo was for the first half/more of the season but he was genuinely a negative on the pitch he knows how to run around and make it look like he’s doing something, he has been amazing but we’re in this position bc he was ass on the ball and fake busy
