No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Ingram is apparently on the table now for Paul George. However deals can't be completed until the pick is made now at this point.

What the gently caress do the Cavs even have? Aren't their only tradeable assets Love and Kyrie? I like Danny and all, and he's definitely better than those two, but I don't think you can convince cleveland of it.

I joke about Phil Jackson, known Knick hater, taking the job to intentionally ruin the Knicks, maybe this is Johnson's plan for revenge against the Lakers for some unknown reason.

I don't even hate the Lakers so this is all just perplexing to me, not really that enjoyable cuz it feels like multiple careers are being ruined. But also very funny
