    Too bad. Would have been fun to see the Pelicans fans boo him off the court.

    I'm glad Simmons is doing this again. Think he has an apt take on the Davis situation.

    Also.

    I can totally see the teams getting together to blackball Klutch and their clients. The way they're manipulating the narrative is astounding. No team deserves this.

    I wonder if he writes this article exactly the same way if his Celtics were also listed on the "phony list of destinations"
    My guess is........no

    They have absolutely no incentive to play him now and only incentive to sit him.

    I don't know. Maybe LA could lose their fervor because they want him right now to take them into the playoffs and do some damage.. Maybe the league will find out Ainge is not offering Tatum.

    You could be right about the Boston part. But the Lakers will still offer whatever it takes to get him this summer. This is a long term strategy for them.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Ainge is just dangling assets to tell the Pelicans to hold on.....just to screw with the Lakers. That would be classic Celtic of him.

    I love it when the Lakers and Knicks are not places that will always attract free agents.....it's about time!

    Annnd Lavar is finally getting out from under his rock. What a shitshow. Given this nonsense and how every single one of Magic's offers to NO have been revealed, that front office is absolute trash. Why do people want to go there?

    I love that lavar cares about his kids the way he does. I hate that Lavar puts so much of his kids business in front of cameras and microphones. Lavar is delusional sure, but a lot of the outlandish things he said were for the show, and the reaction it got from people. Overall though at least he's involved with his kid's life, there are much worse parents out there.

    I wouldn't want Lonzo anywhere near my organization.....just because of his father. Sucks for the son.

    It's actually ridiculous that people think Ball has any value at all to be honest. He compares very favorably to Evan Turner. Even Turner's rookie year is about similar to Ball now. Raw stats, advanced stats, size, etc etc. They're like the exact same player. Both were also drafted #2.

    If he wasn't in LA, people would universally call him a bust.

    I don't want him cuz he sucks. He shouldn't be playing 30 mpg. He's a scrub bench player at best.

    "Lakers instilled a losing culture"

    He put's far to much pressure and expectations on them. No wonder, Lonzo is pretty much a bust, and his other kids will probably never play in the NBA
