Amen. Thompson. One of the best blocks I’ve ever seen.

This is going to be 10x trashgate. For Passan to be this forward in an interview…there must be an absolute tsunami of evidence.

Had not noticed the subtle stripe on the whites. Love that nod to the vintage 90s/00s blues.

Now that “The Decision Part 4” is done, the league really has no legitimate reason to drag out the Clippers/Kawhi judgement.

It took awhile, but Jae’Sean Tate finally has the shooting coach he always needed. Get ready for that 7th year leap!

NBA commissioner Adam Silver says he cannot give a timeline beyond "this summer" for the completion of the external investigation commissioned by the league into allegations of salary cap circumvention against the Clippers with respect to Kawhi Leonard.

Going to have a hard time believing this isn’t connected to the pending Kawhi trade…

The NBA says Miami’s Micky Arison is replacing Toronto’s Larry Tannenbaum as chairman of the league’s Board of Governors starting in September:

Can you imagine the back room negotiations going on right now?

NBA spokesperson: “We don’t have a specific timeline for the conclusion of the investigation but expect the firm to finalize its work in the coming weeks."

Quietly, I believe there’s a furious bidding war going on for Durant. Entirely possible that he and LeBron are talking to one another as well.

A few teams have made calls to the Rockets asking about Kevin Durant's availability this offseason, including the Pistons, sources told @ClutchPoints. Although the Rockets are not shopping Durant this summer, he is not considered an "untouchable" player on their roster.

Wait…the Lakers are GETTING picks to dump Ayton?
Shams Charania
@ShamsCharaniaJul 3
Just in: The Los Angeles Lakers are trading Deandre Ayton to the Washington Wizards for Jaden Hardy and two Wizards second-round picks in 2031 and 2032, sources tell ESPN.

The only signal to me is that we aren’t trying to contend. A contending team wouldn’t make a move like this that costs picks and gives up an expiring salary they could have aggregated in a bigger trade.

Why do this now when you can dump him at the trade deadline for perhaps free if he improves?

@ShamsCharaniaJul 3
The Houston Rockets are trading Dorian Finney-Smith and three second-round picks to the Charlotte Hornets, sources tell ESPN.

To me, this is less about Brown and more that there’s at least been *a* conversation about moving Durant and/or Sengun.
SleeperRockets
@SleeperRocketsJul 2
The Rockets, Celtics, and Pistons discussed a three-team trade that would’ve sent Alperen Sengun to Boston, Kevin Durant to Detroit, and Jaylen Brown to Houston, per @BrettSiegelNBA “There were talks about a Kevin Durant trade involving Jaylen Brown and Alperen Sengun…Ultimately Houston did not want that type of package.”

Smart is as much a backup for Amen as he is a PG. Yes they will play together, but the minutes for Amen have to come down. So the question remains…what’s the plan at the other guard spot? Is it Reed, FVV or a trade target?
104
WHAT. A. SHOT.

That’s a steal for the 76ers. They were backed into a corner. Now they’re a legit title threat. Maxey/Edgcombe/Brown is a filthy backcourt.

Somewhat reasonable comp for Tari as far as role and expectations…
Shams Charania
@ShamsCharaniaJul 1
Free agent forward Kelly Oubre Jr. has agreed to a two-year, nearly $17 million deal to sign with the Indiana Pacers, sources tell ESPN.

A max MLE offer for Tari is 4 years $65 million, which Houston would match before the ink dried. There isn’t much reason for delay at this point. Nets are the only team with cap space. Hopefully a deal gets done here in the next few days.
