The worst thing about Stephen A Smith is that I feel like he's not in on the joke. Skip Bayless at least gives me the sense that he knows why we're laughing at him

EvanTH posted:Yeah those are the things I read. Seems like a big stretch to take offense on that. Just call them his friends then or his business partners. Seems like Lebron's trying to defend his friends here and their accomplishments outside of his influence which I applaud him for. Sure Lebron being the greatest basketball player of all time gave them a huge leg up but sounds like his old friends have built legitimate successful businesses that leverage off of Lebron. I think he's trying to point out that Phil Jackson would probably use different language to refer to a rich white CEO who hires a bunch of b-school friends to run businesses for him.

EvanTH posted:Nah I would easily refer to an entourage, a group of people who depend on one single person's celebrity for their economic and social lives, in an insulting demeaning manner. I've done it myself on this very page? It's a weird relationship, paid friend to some of the world's richest teenagers. I'd probably think even less of it if I was in some sort of management position. Yo like LeBron's whole point was that your view is hosed up and wrong and that's what he's trying to correct. LeBron himself is saying that he's a client of Maverick and Rich Paul and that they have built successful businesses on their own. A guy who is supposed to be the general manager of an NBA team should know that as well

I think we can all agree that Maverick Carter, Rich Paul, LeBron James, Savannah James, or even Lebron James Jr could do a better job of running the Knicks than Phil Jackson.

Dejan Bimble posted:A team that beat them in one game without their defensive anchor and with 7 games of their best player playing hurt I dunno I try to be a rational modern sports fan but there's no way I can call a team the "greatest of all time" if they didn't win the championship. Greatest regular season record? A great team? Sure. But not the greatest of all time.

Pretty great Bulls conspiracy theory courtesy of Reddit that has me all 'I WANT TO BELIEVE'quote:Holy poo poo. Please tell me someone is watching Mike and Mike on ESPN. Ryen Russillo* basically came on the show and said that Jimmy Butler and the Bulls FO are at odds and thats why there are so many Jimmy to Celtics rumors. Russillo* said basically that before Jimmy was a restricted free agent after his 3rd year he was averaging 13 ppg and the bulls FO offered him a 4 yr/44 mil extension to which Jimmy declined. The Bulls FO then told him that'd they'd start TONY SNELL over him and give SNELL jimmy's minutes and give Jimmy the minutes Snell got off the bench to hurt his numbers and crash his value in the upcoming free agency. Thibs caught wind of this and basically said "gently caress that, I'm starting Jimmy" and Jimmy averaged 20ppg and got cashed out. This is why Jimmy and Thibs are so close, because Thibs had his back and this is also supposedly one of the reasons why Thibs and the FO had issues. So now Jimmy has this distrust for the Bulls FO and also distrusts Fred Hoiberg* because Jimmy sees Fred as an extension of the FO. And then Wade came over and Jimmy basically told Wade everything that happened and wade sympathized with him because of all the gently caress poo poo he dealt with in MIA which adds to why Jimmy and Wade are so close

Panzeh posted:Just a reminder that Russell Westbrook blew a 3-1 lead in the NBA Western Conference Finals and dribbled the ball off his foot in the final minute of game 7. Honestly, that's the best self-own out there. But without that we wouldn't have the 73-win Warriors led by the first ever unanimous MVP blowing a 3-1 lead in the Finals so really Russell Westbrook owned the Warriors pretty hard
