Can't believe the regular season starts tonight. Just seemed like the Finals ended a couple weeks ago.



Philly vs Celtics: 6:30PM CST TNT

GSW vs Lakers: 9:00PM CST TNT

Tired of the insanely unlikely trade rumors. Just saw a scenario where Phoenix would trade Devin Booker to the Mavs for Kyrie. Not going to happen but if it did Luka would be leading the first Father-Son backcourt.

Dray got paid. 4 year $100 million.

[dirk digler]

Damn Bruce Brown 2 year $45 million from the Pacers.

That's a pretty significant hit to that Nuggets team. Good two-way player.

Kyrie staying in Dallas. 3 years $128 million. Damn teams are stupid

[dirk digler]

76ers getting picked apart losing Niang, Milton and soon Harden.

There will be far stupider contracts given out today than Kyrie getting that amount. He's still one of the best scorers in the league.

Like Your boy Fred VanFleet going to the Rockets for 3 years for $130 million?

This seems like a relatively boring FA.

Exactly like that. The Raptors tried to stupidly offer him 4/120 as well and fortunately were outbid by the Rockets.

Toronto is still a treadmill team going absolutely nowhere until they engage in a real rebuild though. Siakam is the last remaining piece of that championship team and he's got to go.

Need another LeBron free agency again. Maybe a Decision 2.0.

Also, I don't understand what the Lakers are doing again. They let Schroder go (he's Raptors-bound) and signed Gave Vincent? Schroder was one of the few playable guys they even had in the playoffs.

Guessing we'll see a D'Lo return too. Awful.

Thank you NBA for having NBA summer league next week. There is nothing ****ing happening in the sports world right now except for ****ing baseball - which is awful.

Can't wait. Great decision for the NBA to really focus on summer league and getting alot of the top picks to actually play. It's a great break for some basketball.

Maybe Braun will get the minutes.

Russell is a train wreck.
