relax skip
just continue to say outrageous shit for attention
i aint mad at cha
Yeah but if a crakka father did the same thing you'd be up in arms over it. So how does him being black make it ok? At this point LaVar's not helping his son in no way shape or forum with his mouth. Everyone's grandmother's dead and alive know the Lakers won't make the fuckin playoffs. Now running off at the mouth saying hands down his son's gonna win the ROY? The race is over already? My boy and LeBron could win a title in L.A? Like dem lightskinned niggas in Oakland gonna just lay down for the Big Baller Brand? LaVar is on some clown shit man. He's a Little League parent on Steroids. Period.
Bad shooting nights happen to everyone... Specially when you havent played in along time and you playing with guys you dont know but... Why so many 3s? Can he not get in the lane at all?
Bad shooting night huh? He played like shit the last game he played against Kentucky..
Keeping writing the checks that your son can't cash, Lavar.
Who did the Bulls draft?
is anyone going to be better than Butler?
Exactly. Don't talk about dumb GM decisions.
Needs a shot and he'll be ok
Paul Millsap: Hawks never offered me a contract
New Hawks general manager Travis Schlenk made it pretty clear Atlanta was ready to move on from Paul Millsap. Atlanta alsotraded Dwight Howard, further signaling an intent to rebuild.
Millsap left for the Nuggets in free agency, landing a three-year, $90 million contract with a team option.
Millsap, via Chris Vivlamore of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
“It was pretty simple,” Millsap told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Monday. “Denver, they came and they’ve been wanting me for years. They made that known. The presentation that they gave me, it felt comfortable, it felt real. At the end of the day it was going to be the team that I felt most comfortable with and Atlanta. Atlanta decided to go another direction. They didn’t want to make an offer. So it was pretty simple. Denver was the team.”
“Definitely disappointing,” Millsap said. “I thought I meant a bit more than that to them. But it is what it is. I’m happy with the decision I’ve made. I’m happy with the team I’m with. I’m ready to get it going with them.”
Millsap is 32. He doesn’t fit a youth movement with Dennis Schroder, Taurean Prince, DeAndre’ Bembry and John Collins.
A two-year guarantee to Millsap wouldn’t have handcuffed Atlanta like the feared five-year max would have. But committing $60 million to a 32-year-old still would have been a hefty investment for a team trying to go another way.
There might have been a number where the Hawks would have brought Millsap back. But it was clearly so low, it wasn’t worth even presenting next to Denver’s offer.
If Atlanta made that lowball offer, would Millsap’s comments about disappointment and how much he thought he meant to the franchise have been any different?
The issue isn’t the Hawks not making an offer. The issue is the Hawks not valuing Millsap anywhere near the extend the Nuggets did.
Which is fine. Millsap will be an awesome fit next to Nikola Jokic, maybe the final piece to Denver reaching the playoffs. In Atlanta, Millsap would have been an expensive impediment to rebuilding.

Report: Jamal Crawford is the Cavs’ to lose
Luis Sinco | Los Angeles Times
The 2017 NBA offseason has been fairly quiet for the Eastern Conference championCleveland Cavaliers, although they did manage to make a few moves, including the re-signing of sharpshooter Kyle Korver and the additions of two new faces in Jose Calderon and Jeff Green.
As most fans of the team know, the Cavs are keeping an eye on veteran guard Jamal Crawford, who was traded by the L.A. Clippers a few days ago, reached a buyout agreement with the Atlanta Hawks earlier today. That makes the three-time Sixth Man of the Year award winner a free agent, and the two sides reportedly have mutual interest. In fact, Joe Vardon of cleveland.com recently reported that Crawford spoke with Cavs superstar LeBron James, telling him that he would be “very interested” in joining the team. Now that he has reached a buyout, it seems Crawford is ‘Cleveland’s to lose,’ as Vardon writes in his article.
The Cavs, who are now labeled as repeat offenders for being over the salary and luxury cap in consecutive seasons, have but limited funds to offer Crawford for his services. Cleveland does have one mid-level trade exception at their disposal, which is valued at $5.2 million, but would Crawford accept that amount to play for the wine and gold? Perhaps… Sources tell Vardon that he would — if the Cavs offer the full amount. However, there are several other teams hot on his trail, including the Washington Wizards, Minnesota Timberwolves, as well as Los Angeles Lakers, and the Cavs originally planned to use part of their mid-level exception to pay their rookieCedi Osman. If Crawford takes up the entire MLE, it complicates Osman’s move to the Cavs.
In his career-high 82 regular season games with the LA Clippers last season, Crawford averaged 12.3 points (41% field, 36% from beyond the arc), 2.6 assists, and 1.6 rebounds in 26.3 minutes per game. While it’s true he isn’t the greatest defender, there is no doubt he would be a fine addition to any team’s rotation.

I hear all the pleas being copped fam. It was one game and a bad one, he will adjust I believe but we need to chill with that he looked like someone who hasn't played a game in a while. Fultz, Tatum and a few others were way more impressive in their first games as pros, and they had as much time off or more than Lonzo. He just played like shit, let's see how he plays next game but making all these excuses for him is ridiculous.
Like last night during the game, it wasn't until it was clear he wouldn't turn shit around that game, and after dick riding him all game only to have his play contradict the hyping, that the commentators pulled a 'he was injured' out of their asses. He will be fine, but he played like shit last night, no more no less...

That Jeff Green signing is nice for the Cavs.
They got im for the LOW too. I guess his market got made for him.

It is one game. Damn near all the players who went on to be stars in the NBA had horrible first games in the summer League.

Cav definitely won't have to worry about getting a shot in late game situations. The amount of dribble between him and Kyrie though. Would love to see how that works out on the court.
Bulls drafted a cac alsoWho did the Bulls draft?
is anyone going to be better than Butler?
Exactly. Don't talk about dumb GM decisions.
Needs a shot and he'll be ok
Butler? Who cares…we about to get Porter.
Magic is a dumbass for passing on fox who was cooking ball
This nigga wants 595 for his shoes and puts up 5 a game?
Fail
I don't get niggas on here man I really don't. Had Fultz or Tatum stunk it up you would have been all over their asses. Making jokes and sayin "maybe if they had a hype man father like LaVar in their corner it would have motivated them to be great right out the gates!!" Lonzo will be very good and I'm rooting for him. Just call balls and strikes the way they are. No plea coppin. Save dat shit for regular season.
