    Mejri is on a minimum contract. DAL has the cap space to absorb Meyers' contract, but it would be a tough sell to convince them that would be the most judicious use of that cap space.

    They were going to have a flop-off.

    They don't make a lot of sense, do they? Not only is the color combo bad, but they highlighted the number and "OKC" with bright ass yellow?

    Wow. The name Festus Ezeli is like mentioning a festering financial wound. He still walked away with a million even though he didn't play. Who the fuck would name their kid Festus? That's Cruel.

    Yes. It is fashion risk. The Blazers still have the best uniforms except for the new red ones with felt numbers. I do not like them. The 90-92 uniforms were my favorite except for the tiny pants.

    It's like they took six random spins on a color wheel and this is what they came up with. None of the colors go together, nor are any of them complimentary colors, just some random combination.

    Crockett and Tubbs approved!

    And not nearly as hideous as the shit OKC is wearing tonight.

    At least those MIA unis have some historical context. The OKC uniforms look like they were designed by a toddler with a box of 64 Crayola's.

    Hate the dude now, but Russ had an absolutely sick game just now. 46-6-6 on only 1 made 3 and 7 FTs. Clinic against John Wall.

    Beal with 41-12-7 in the losing effort

    not sure of the restrictions meaning no trade clause but if I’m Cleveland and I’m sure LeBron isn’t coming back I trade him for young players and draft picks. Get what you can out of him now instead of losing him for nothing.

    LBJ has a full no-trade clause.

    Lol I just think LeBron is going to leave them high and dry. Cleveland will be horrible again for years they can literally change the face of the franchise in one big ballsy move

    Since Lebron is also Le-GM he could congratulate himself on getting such a good deal.

    Good idea.

    Except he already said not to bother dealing him, he won’t move this year, he’ll block all deals, he’s staying in Cleveland until the year is up and then he’ll evaluate his options.

    Not saying he couldn’t change his mind, but he’s been pretty blunt on the topic, thus far.

    It's funny how Westbrooks high scoring outputs always seem to correlate with PG and Melo shooting poor from the field.
