    The Americans know how to do sports.

    NFL is a goddam perfect 16-game season plus finals.

    The NBA may have a 200-game season, but it's flashy, it's absolutely driven by the stars, and manages to pack in a decent soap opera's worth of drama.

    The team i support may be being left behind, but i am still loving this arms race era we are in, where everyone is trying to catch GS.

        @mariner4life I reckon he stays and he racks up the assists, because with that firepower the last thing the Lakers need is a shoot first PG

          The best comment I saw about the LBJ signing was whether LaVar Ball had approved the deal.

            Lakers continue to make waves. They waive rights to Julius Randle to avoid getting locked into a multi year situation. They've signed Rajan Rondo to a one year deal along with Stevenson and McGee. That takes the pressure off Lonzo Ball and I guess Isiah Thomas might be looking for a new team soon. I don't think they are done yet, but it looks like they are building for this season and waiting to pick up Kawhi on the cheap next year when he becomes a free agent, so they dont have to surrender the future (Kuzma, Ingram) to get him. Nice

              It's so strange. They are rushing to get their hands on mediocre players and I have no idea why.

              Hard to see the Lakers competing this year with Lebron surrounded by Ball, Ingram, Kuzma, Stephenson, Rondo.

              Seems they are keeping their powder dry for next season when they can get Kawhi, Davis, Towns, Klay etc

                I know LBJ just had a magnificent season. But, he is old. Can they afford to wait another year to have a crack at it?

                  Maybe they think they would need to give up their future to load up now, as opposed to waiting next year and getting the best of both worlds? Whatever you think of those players LBJ will make them better. And they can get rid of them after a year

                          He's injured until January anyway... makes a bit of sense from his perspective.

                            Yup. Can chip in when he's ready rather than be a centrepiece

                                  NBA can get fucked with that trade. 5 All stars in one team 3 who are starters!

                                  All Lebron needs to piece together is Giannis, Porzingis, Simmons, Embidd, Kawhai and Harding (mid season trade) and hes good

                                          Apparently Boogie has signed with... the Warriors!?!?!?!

                                          Boogie = David West?

                                          I wish for the old days when GSW were shit and Mullin was their only decent player.

                                          And what a flat top Chris Mullin had. But you forget about Tim Hardaway and his famous crossover dribble.
