    Yeah, Cowherd is banging this same drum on his radio show right now. "Lebron doesn't care about Paul George or Kawhi Leonard; he's going after Anthony Davis and Kevin Durant. He didn't go to LA to team up with B+ guys; he wants the league's very best."

    Reading is fundamental:

    "A star player switching agents sometimes can create the implication that he wants to change teams. Paul, who represents more than 20 NBA players, told ESPN that is not the case and he plans to meet with Pelicans officials soon."

    "Davis is eligible to sign up to a five-year, $235 million extension with the Pelicans next summer."

    Davis doesn't get that supermax contract if he's traded from the Pelicans before signing an extension with them.

    Just saying that he's got about $100 million reasons to sign the supermax deal this summer with the Pelicans and play at least next season with them.

    I know you Laker fans like to play name it and claim it when it comes to players you want, but I don't see this as being a Kawhi Leonard situation at all. Davis isn't pissed with the Pelicans and willing to turn his back on a huge payday just to get out of town.

    So you're saying to expect a video of Laker fans claiming some rando big on their roster is > AD?

    And/or expect to start seeing lots of blurry photos of Anthony Davis (allegedly) at LAX (allegedly).

    There is literally NOTHING happening with the blazers in August and September. Look for more actual "basketball" talk when training camp starts.

    Yeah, it's really annoying how these noobs think they're funny. Personally, I effing hilarious, but sometimes I'm just not understood :)

    Higher than you might think. I'm pretty sure Rondo's mensa level. However, his IQ might be higher than the other 3 combined...

    You're making it way to hard. Just add up the number on the front of their jerseys.
