Some surprise as Jabari Smith who was the #1 overall pick went at 3 instead.


Bulls rumored to be in on Gobert? I doubt it.

Wow...so, T-Wolves now have KAT and Rudy at C as the Jazz unload him to Minny. Quite the haul though.

LaVine re-ups in Chicago...no surprise. Not sure he's worth it as history has shown 1-dimensional SGs like him aren't worth it (see Beal)...but, at least with Zach, he's taken steps to improving his D...though, he'll never be a defensive monster.




Celtics have acquired Brogdon from the Pacers as Indy goes full-rebuild.

So, KD won't go to the LeHeat unless Bam, Butler, and Kyle Lawwwwrie...are still in Miami. Not sure Pat can make a trade to get KD then.



Dafuq. What is with NBA players being such divas these days? How about honoring a farking contract?

KD retracts his hissy-fit demand when he realizes no one wants to trade their universe for him playing 2 games.

LaBum felt bad for him acting like they won the whole damn thing after the play-in. Told him he will have a real chance to celebrate now.

I saw the video. He tried to challenge LeBron on a breakaway attempt in a BS game. Dumb kid.

Per the Nets and LeLakers, draft picks are overrated.

1yr and 10-mil fine for his actions that included the use of the N-word and sexist remarks about female staff.

10-mil fine is what hurts the most, i'd say.
