    They can’t trade for LeBron and afford to sign those guys. I like a LeBron for Zion trade though. LeBron needs to go back to East to dominate and Lakers need to build around young core.

    I think it’s theoretically possible, Zion, Thomas, and Ntilikina for LeBron would maybe open up enough space for KD and Kyrie. Considering the Knicks would still have young guys like Knox, DSJ, Trier, and Robinson... they could be a threat.

    It wouldnt. LeBron and KD making 70% of the cap conbined with Kyrie making 30%? Not feasible. Theyd have to try to sign Kyrie and KD then get close ebough to match salary for LBJ in a trade.

    It's because every play they wait for their 6th teammate, the ref whistle.

    It's such an odd feeling to know I'm either going to be super pumped or majorly down in about 3 hours.

    Damn Shaq made a nice point. They criticize these young players as a means of providing answers to the test. Yet, they get sensitive and don't want to call them, etc, etc. Then, Chuck follows up with a typical Chuck answer and I'm paraphrasing "These young guys know how to find me. If they have a problem with me criticizing them, they can kiss my ass." LMAO Chuck, but I agree.

    Sixers have zero ball moment at end of this game 7, 3 times in a row they just ran it to end of the shot clock and no good shot to boot. They are chocking this game away

    Sixers probably know that if they advance there is a chance they will have to run back '77 - why bother? ;)
