    He has a point.
    If you can get a player the caliber of AD you get that player.
    End of story.

    Footage shows Cavaliers star and onetime LeBron teammate Delonte West BEGGING on side of Virginia road: Ex-NBA player was 'trying to make basketball comeback in new 3-on-3 league' following stint in rehab
    • Troubled former NBA guard Delonte West was seen panhandling at the side of a road in Alexandria, Virginia
    • West, 38, has publicly battled bipolar disorder and reportedly has drug issues
    • In 2020, he was seen begging in Dallas and met Mavericks owner Mark Cuban at a local gas station
    • Cuban is said to have put West through rehab three times, but he has walked out each time
    • West earned over $16 million during his nine-year NBA career, which ended after his only season with the Mavericks in 2011-2012, when he was just 28

    Why on earth would you drive around with 3 pounds? The guy is worth millions. Can't he hire someone to do that? And 3 pounds?? Christ that is a good amount of weed for anyone.

    Steve Kerr better not rest Curry for more than a minute if he wants to win.

    Nobody else was going to sign him for anything close to that.

    brutal contract. i want nothing to do with that or lavine. we're gonna see similar extensions in Philly and Washington this year. Maybe even BK with Kyrie.

    Dame's inevitable 2/100 will look reasonable in comparison.

    But given his injury recovery, we don't know when he'll be back again...

    Didn’t Brooklyn say they were not making an offer to Kyrie?

    lavine is not worth that money, but hes 27, thats the silver lining

    teams will always have to overpay in order to keep their best players, they have no choice... its either overpay or lose the player
