I agree we shouldn't bash Durant, its the NBA's fault super teams even happen in the first place.

 

Why not? Bash the f***er. I won't bash him, but I don't give a rats ass if others do.

Wade to Chicago? Figured. Interesting.

[Caper]

Basketball needs to have some system for player rentals like you might see in soccer.

[West Texas Forever]

KD presser here.

Raps sign Jarod Sullinger 1/6.

[canadiansportsjunkie]

What a steal

[jays_fever]

t's sad because Horford is only a minor upgrade over Sullinger... MAX contract vs. 6 million. Al Horford is 30 years old and averaged 15 PPG and 7 REB on 31 MPG, Jared Sullinger is 24 and averaged 10 PPG and 8 REB on 23 MPG

 

Thats what someone took time out of their lives to post on realgm

I was reading this thinking it was you saying it and I was a little worried about you

Scola to the Nets! Great news!

Raps sign Fred Van Vleet to multi-year deal.

 

Him playing on The Shockers just makes it even better.

 

Ladies beware...

The reason why is pretty interesting. The state enacted a bill that limits anti-discrimination protections for lesbian, gay and transgender people in the state.

 

Many mainstream entertainers are boycotting the state and will not put on events there now because of it.

[Dr. Dinger]

 

Wow, that is heavy-handed.

I want to talk about Durant's joining the Warriors. His decision not only enhance the impact of Warriors, but also chance the taste of his fans of the former team. Shifting consumer tastes might also pose a challenge for Durant’s Nike line, whatever which uniform he wears. Those sport suits and shirts and sneakers on online sales or to-be-sold stock are facing a dive in price. “KD” sneakers are high-end products routinely sell for $199.99, even while customers shift faraway from performance basketball sneakers in support of retro and classic designs. Under Armour was the one major brand showing rise in the performance basketball category, NPD Group analyst Matt Powell wrote in a very June 6 note.

the least he can do is stick around and deal with the mess that is the derozan contract

[G-Snarls]

Done deal

Raps sign Heslip. Not bad I spose.

Chris Bosh fails pre season physical due to complications from blood clotting His career is likely over. Interesting question - does he make the hall of fame? Edited September 24, 2016 by Bobthe4th

I don't think so.

[dineke]

I don't think so.

 

He's 100% going in. Everyone makes it into the BBALL HOF.

Well a couple days ago The Raps said Sullinger could miss the first game of the season and now today they're saying he's gonna miss 3 months. Beautiful.

[jaysblue]

If anyone is interested in going to the home opener on Wednesday, send me a PM. Looking to sell my pair.

He had foot surgery. I don't see how only missing a week or two was ever a realistic scenario.

[Trouba95]

 

Tweet of the year.

[jaysblue]

If anyone wants Raptors tickets this season, send me a PM. Cheaper than face value.

[Abomination]

LeBron is fun to watch when he's not playing you in the playoffs.

[jaysblue]

Sold my pair for the home opener tonight. Have an extra pair available for the Cavs game this Friday if anyone is interested.
