Seriously though, I think its between CLE/LA at this point and hes gonna go wherever he thinks he can win a ring the most. Probably wait to see if either team can get another big name. | ||

This would also put a dent in the theory that Westbrook is such a bad teammate. | ||

PG > Philly Lebron > LA Kawhi > Stays Despite what people are generally saying, IMO, a Lebron-PG-Kawhi team that doesn't win 75 games and 4 titles would be a grave underperformance, and thus it does not interest me. | ||

LeBron was the most hated guy in the league 6-7 years ago then he went back to Cavs and became the most loved. But there is one group of haters LeBron has yet to win over, and those are the die-hard Lakers/Kobe fans. LeBron going to LA to win their hearts once and for all. If that's his plan, those irrationals won't do that until he wins a title.

This would also put a dent in the theory that Westbrook is such a bad teammate. Westbrook has also learned a lot in the past few years about how to be a better teammate. At least it would seem that way from the stuff you keep hearing he has done with PG.

That reported meniscus injury was already known and it was the same injury he has/had been dealing with, it just became public. The Lakers, by law, aren't allowed to release/disclose player's medical reports or w/e you wanna call it to the public during the summer (according to Ramona). And who would gain the most from this leaking amid possible trade rumors? Ball's camp is where the signs are pointing to with the timing of this. | ||

oops, i mean Congratz to Fred Van Vleet. from undrafted 6 foot nobody to G-League Finals MVP to an $18 million deal. its interesting that its a 2 year deal. it seems like the entire team has their contracts expire in 2 years. What a story it would be if FVV replaces Lowry as the starting PG after Lowry's deal expires. The "FVV is signed" Raptors reddit thread has ~600 upvotes and 120 messages in 3 hours. FVV has developed a cult-like following. i believe Shams "league source" is Blake Murphy.. who is ultra reliable. EDIT: Michael Grange confirmed it.. so its a done deal. | ||

So practically prime PG will be OKC PG! Westbrook is a good teammate. Durant also never trashed him even under cover of a burner account. Maybe he doesn't have the best decision making on the court but I hope him and PG find something special next year. | ||
