    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    Yeah, you're right. Truth of the matter is I can't back any of my bull**** up beyond what I've already stated. This is just coffee-less brain trying to wrap my head around WTF Dallas is doing.

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    Vegas is also growing very rapidly. If the biggest sports league can leave Los freakin' Angeles, then anything is possible. There is a hell of a lot more tourism dollars on the Strip, the new owners are Casino moguls, Silver has hardly hid his boner over a franchise in Vegas, and there's two...

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I am old enough to remember when folks said the NFL wasn't moving out of LA. The problem is that a new arena isn't a sure thing in Dallas and the new owners have visions of building a casino-arena complex. If Texas does not legalize gambling...

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I don't know that Nico hates Cuban/Luka as much as the new owners ordered him to do it. Vegas is starving for an NBA franchise, the Jazz aren't moving, that trade literally dropped a Little Boy on the Mavericks roster, and the fans are overnight done with the franchise. Just waiting for the...

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I don't buy the "Better on D/supermax + conditioning" reasoning one bit. You don't trade a 25 year old MVP guy for a 32 yo DPOY isn't going to age gracefully. I get Davis is great, but the value is so off here. Dallas literally reset the Lakers timeline on things.

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I guess in some sort of weird world, this balances the Mavs roster some and opens Kyrie to be more ball dominant? But AD is 32, injury prone, and not likely to age gracefully. Pelinka literally got a gift from the Gods.

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I think Ainge probably screwed the value of the Wolves pick a bit this year. I legit have a hard time seeing Dallas catch them now.

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    Anyone remember that five team deal back in the day where we got Ostertag? Yeah, good times. This is an absolutely crazy deal, but we're re-stocking our 2nds I guess. Also, guessing the Lakers are saying eff that defense.

    Dallas trading Luka to the Lakers for Anthony Davis! Utah involved.

    I think it was "open to being traded", but he never specifically requested one. He was hinting he wouldn't extend in Utah.

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    Hmm. Didn't take him long to wreck the economy, did it. Just want all you Trumpers to remember you were warned.

    Jazz Suns trade

    I'm good with this. We need to consolidate assets at some point and odds are that pick is going to gain value as time passes and Suns suck more and more.

    It’s going to be a long boring but the year the jazz need.

    I'm more than okay with that. Players need time to develop, so I'm good with the suck so long as we see what we genuinely have to work with.

    Are the Jazz Not Bad?

    For the record, I am perfectly fine with the Jazz not being as bad as anticipated PROVIDED our young guys are getting beaucoup minutes. If that happens, all the means to me is the we're doing what we should, which is develop, develop, develop. This stupid *** half-in/half-out thing we've been...

    Jazz Future Pick Watch: Minnesota Timberwolves are nearing a trade to send Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo

    I think KAT compliments their roster pretty well from a positional, size, and scoring standpoint. Much will depend on how they view him along side Robinson. I think Minnesota may have gotten a bit better, depending on Randle's health and if they can re-sign him. Otherwise, this might have...

    Jazz Future Pick Watch: Minnesota Timberwolves are nearing a trade to send Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks for Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo

    I think you can make the argument that Minnesota may have gotten a bit better with this deal, but I guess my valuation of KAT and Randle must have been off.

    Kamala Harris for Pres

    I actually used to support the Filibuster, but to be honest, it lost its usefulness with the 17th. If we're to hold Senators accountable to the people, then their votes needs to be heard. Not protected behind some antiquated Gentleman's Agreement that has been chipped away over the last 2...

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    So you are telling me that a black dude who told a bunch of people that "we lost rights" during the Civil Rights Era in the 60s called himself "Black Nazi" on a porn forum. Yeah, shocking.
