in order to credibly report on something, i have several vetted sources, because that's how journalism works

are you supposing that i don't have any intel to say something like this? do you know what my job is?

lebron has a no trade clause and probably only one other destination he'd be open to, i think you basically take back what you can get. they lose him next summer for nothing

*disclaimer: THIS IS NOT REPORTING*

but what if the big man and guard the the lakers are going to get this summer are jarrett allen and darius garland, and that's why they aren't being aggressive in free agency?

seeing posts like this i am convinced a large portion of the sports viewing populus has brainworms because in what universe does this far fetched conspiracy theory have legs

Chad Andrus @chadandrus.bsky.social · Jun 30

Lebron hints he wants out of LA if they don’t improve the roster, and 10 hours later a former #1 overall pick at the position they need, owed 30 million, is bought out. What an amazing coincidence!

The unsinkable Pacers don’t need the lead. They just need the last word | Claire de Lune

Indiana didn’t lead for 47 minutes and 59.7 seconds of Thursday’s NBA finals opener. But belief, defiance and Tyrese Haliburton’s dramatic flair made the final 0.3 count

i'm having fun writing about this one. i can't tell you the last time i had fun writing an article. it's usually kinda like going to the gym: you feel really good after it's done but while you're doing it you kinda wanna die.

what a game

NBA teams were 0-121 when down by 7 or more points in the final 3 minutes of regulation in the NBA Finals over the last 28 postseasons.

They are now 1-121.
