Bush Did Outer Heaven posted:annual reminder that Sam Amico's sources are jack poo poo and he's never scooped any of the reliable big names out there. Anyone might reasonably infer that Cleveland is fielding offers for Love because why not, but the odds of him scooping, say, Windhorst, on some Cavs news are nearly zero. This reminds me. Shout out to Zach Lowe for finally having a rumor he reported early on coming true. One more and he can make it to Chris Boussard "Broken Clock" status.

Lowe doesn't really try to break stories or really claim to be a reporter

Anything Lowe genuinely passes on as a reported tidbit is solid. 60% of the time that has to do with court design changes or proposed lottery odds adjustments, but still, he's decently sourced and doesn't throw poo poo out there in a "reporting" context unless there's validity to it It's not surprising the stuff he hears in passing that he only feels comfortable mentioning on a podcast doesn't usually come to fruition. If there was more substance there, it wouldn't be confined to The Lowe Post

Why would the Cavs fire Griffin 3 days before the draft? Like even if they are getting rid of him that timing seems like a really bad idea.

The Kings business manager, literally the only well performing (excellent even) side of the organization, is leaving. Both sides say it's amicable but Carmichael Dave is going off on it. So yay Vivek

I don't understand lebron leaving for la, but if it's because "gilbert is a shithead", can't say I blame him. From a perspective of winning it makes no sense though.

LeBron called the shot and made Gilbert eat the bullet on it because he owed him one for the letter.

Bringing it up on the podcast as a thing to talk about hypotenrically and fill time isn't the same as reporting it but I honestly don't even remember him doing this that often.

FuzzySkinner posted:I don't understand lebron leaving for la, but if it's because "gilbert is a shithead", can't say I blame him. This is why I dont' really believe it. The Clippers can only get a max if they let Griffin or Paul leave this year, and the Lakers will have to take a chunk out of their team to make it possible to get Lebron+Someone Else. Unless it's just a Michael Jordanesque business decision to try to solidify his shoe sales by making sure to finally get Lakers fans into his brand, it just doesn't make a ton of sense.

if lebron wants to regain his villain status going to the lakers is basically the only way he can do it at this point

MourningView posted:LA is cool and has very nice weather I'd rather be in San Diego, but I don't think there's a team there. (I love Ft. Myers too). LA felt too "crowded" for me. People seemed okay though. Again, can't blame him just a bit puzzled from a perspective of winning titles. Rick posted:This is why I dont' really believe it. Yeah...I CAN see him leaving though. I just don't know where. The LA teams don't make much sense sans Shoes and Movies level.
