This situation is such a mess and it's gotten worse because Morey didn't pull the trigger. He loses more and more leverage every second
[close]

yeah but what the fuck is he gonna pull the trigger on? All these deals are terrible and ben is still on a contract with the team.
[close]

He should have pulled the trigger months ago at the beginning of free agency. Now he's left holding an overpriced asset that no one wants
I get it, some of those trade offers were straight up insulting tho

Breaking Ben Simmons is the greatest achievement in Atlanta sports in the last 25 years
This is sad but true.  ATL is very underrated in the cursed/historically worst sports teams category, we can hang with anyone.

I haven’t been to a Live game since 2018. Rockets are rebuilding, so tickets should be hella cheap. Knowing Tillman fart tita, he’ll still charge harden prices though lol
if the mods were wu-tang, dean would be cappadonna

Definitely! Last few seasons with the Harden fiasco, just wasn’t a very fun team to watch. Now with Jalen Green and Sengun I’m super excited. Even if it means only 15-20 wins ha. Plus live basketball you just can’t beat it.

I'm just glad everyone is back to ignoring the Clippers again while all the attention is on one franchise whose pg can't play because he won't get the shot and another franchise whose pg said he wouldn't play but is now crawling back to get booed every second he touches the ball

anyone want to place a bet on kyrie retiring? (or not)
while cool-guying is a real phenomenon, studies show that 83% of all cool-guying incidents can be attributed to the cool-guyee being an awkward weirdo

I’ll take that. I say he doesn’t…. Usual kyrie passive aggressiveness…

KD nixed (or voiced his displeasure) a kyrie for Simmons trade i believe.

KD probably

You know you're annoying as fuck when the guy who gives his teammates copies of the godfather to read as homework, gets wine drunk on live every night and screams TACO TUESDAY constantly comes out looking like the good guy compared to you

I love the drama but he's taking it to a professional wrestler level of corny. I was done after he refused to play Boston after being traded but then hoped on social media to post some long winded cryptic bullshit in his IG story. He's the definition of an annoying little brother/cousin that thinks he's too smart for everybody.

gonna see Bucks vs. Jazz on Halloween, first game at the Forum in forever.

Tickets are crazy expensive this season but found a pretty good deal for a matchup i wanna see.
missing the good ol days when you could get in the door for 6 dollars to see the Bucks lose by 55 points to the Timberwolves in a near-empty Bradley Center


good times

ben simmons situation getting even more interesting today, getting tossed from practice and embiid saying he "doesn't care what that man does". what team does simmons think he's forcing his way to? there's no trade for him

what do the pals think

He's trying to harden method, only problem is that harden is a much more valuable player. Morey is probably angling for that dame 4 ben trade, but there's no way Portland is offering that now. Maybe McCollum, but i honestly have no clue where he would end up. Maybe minny? They really held on to him for too long, in the hopes that his value would rise but it has only dropped since
