I tried to look that up for you but apparently the schedules aren't out yet :-\

I'm going to fly to Utah and kick him in the balls

owenbrown 07-05-2017 02:44 PM

Gonna be kinda hard to do that if he's in Boston until you know when they play the Jazz this upcoming season

Bad News Gertner 07-05-2017 04:10 PM

I'll wait

owenbrown 07-05-2017 07:30 PM

ok

SlickyTrickyDamon 07-07-2017 02:48 PM

C's trade away Avery Bradley for a Forward?

DaveWadding 07-07-2017 06:37 PM

Boston got the shitty Morris Twin. Way to gooooooo.

SlickyTrickyDamon 07-09-2017 12:33 AM

Add him to the list of Dom Dimaggio, Jeremy Giambi and various others. Boston has a history with getting the worst brother.

Evil Vito 07-10-2017 02:07 PM

James Harden's new contract will pay him $241 per second.

Ruien 07-10-2017 03:46 PM

Lol.

Kyrie Irving wants out of Cleveland and implied Lebron as a big reason why.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Kyrie Irving requests a trade from Cavs, sources told ESPN. LeBron James was blindsided and is disappointed: <a href="https://t.co/54afvYge9V">https://t.co/54afvYge9V</a></p>&mdash; Brian Windhorst (@WindhorstESPN) <a href="https://twitter.com/WindhorstESPN/status/888484430410428416">July 21, 2017</a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Supposedly he hated being over-shadowed when Lebron returned from Miami and everything always being about Lebron whenever he'd get asked questions. Thought he would be treated on equal status with Lebron or would be groomed by Lebron to be the next mega star but neither happened.

Also probably realized how much of a dump the Cavs will be once Lebron left and didn't want to deal with the mess while Lebron got to have success elsewhere.

Ruien 07-21-2017 11:34 PM

Hahahahahahaha. Want to become a heel again? Chase of the other superstar on the team and then leave the following year. Will be hilarious if that happens.

Emperor Smeat 07-23-2017 09:09 PM

According to ESPN's Stephen A Smith, Irving believes Lebron was the one to leak his trade request to the media which caused another wedge to happen between the two.

Quote:

According to my sources, they believe LeBron James had everything to do with news getting out that Kyrie Irving wants to be traded, because Kyrie Irving and his representation and others met with the Cavaliers a couple weeks ago, and not a word got out until recently. They believe that LeBron James got word of it and was put off by it and leaked it. I’m not going to accuse LeBron of such a thing. I don’t know that to be true at all. But I know that’s what Kyrie Irving believes.

Lol. God I hope Boston wins the East this year.

At least LeBron gives the media drama to talk about during boring periods like now. If he was only as good as Paul George he would be called the TO of basketball.

ClockShot 07-24-2017 08:57 PM

LeBron has his new tag team partner in case Kyrie Irving gets traded.

Derrick Rose signs for $2.1 mil.

Hope Cleveland has better luck than the Knicks had with him. As awkward as that sounds.

Ruien 07-24-2017 09:37 PM

Haha. Rose might be able to be a backup and stay healthy. No way he can be a starter and play the entire season.

He also may get home sick again and randomly leave for a few days.

RaginRonic 07-25-2017 11:37 AM

Here's hoping a Raptors player drops LeBron on his fuckin' head on the Air Canada Centre court and ends his season early, due to a severe concussion, so no one talks about LeBron anymore.

Get that goof out the fuckin' NBA. =P

Holy shit

Should have been a 1-for-1 swap if you ask me.

I think Danny Ainge gave up too much.

SlickyTrickyDamon 08-22-2017 09:18 PM

Yeah they gave up too much but if LeBron is out next year the Cavs needed something more.

Would have been impossible because of Kyrie's salary I think. Cavs wanted either Brooklyn pick, Tatum, or Brown in any deal for Kyrie. Cs felt Tatum and Brown were more valuable than the Brooklyn pick since they also have another 1-2 potentially high picks for next year's draft

Ruien 08-23-2017 12:18 PM

Boston getting swept by Golden State this year. Congratw.

Ruien 08-23-2017 12:27 PM

So Boston may or may not win the East this year but is there any team honestly competing with then the following season? And beyond. They have such a legit young team with more young 1st founders coming.

Emperor Smeat 08-30-2017 11:36 PM

Cavs-Cs agree on a revised trade for Kyrie Irving.

Cavs get:
Isiah Thomas
Jae Crowder
Ante Zizic
2018 1st Rd Pick (Nets)
2020 2nd Rd Pick (Heat)

Cs get:
Kyrie Irving


Cavs tried to demand one of Cs top young players or another 1st Rd pick due to Thomas' health status but got rejected on both by the Cs so had to settle for the 2nd Rd pick to avoid the deadline for the deal.

ClockShot 09-05-2017 01:48 PM

Houston Rockets have been sold to Texas billionaire Tilman Fertitta for a record $2.2 billion dollars.

His claim to fame is he is the owner of Landry's Inc.

ClockShot 09-23-2017 02:54 PM

It's over. IT'S FINALLY OVER!

THE KNICKS TRADED CARMELO ANTHONY!

Sent him to Oklahoma City for a couple players and a draft pick.

good... finally

RP 09-23-2017 04:52 PM

Sent him to OKC for a sandwich, a side order of fries and large coke.

Triple A 09-23-2017 06:21 PM

whatever... dead weight.........

Emperor Smeat 09-28-2017 06:20 PM

NBA changing their draft lottery system starting in 2019 with the biggest change being punishing teams who blatantly tank to try to get the #1 pick. Instead of the worst team getting 25% of all lotto balls, they will only get 14% which is the same amount the 2nd and 3rd worst teams will get.

Also increasing the amount of spots per lotto pick from 3 to 4 as another way to persuade against blatant tanking.

Hahahaha hey Hayward.

Killlll yourself!

SlickyTrickyDamon 10-18-2017 12:57 AM

You're not even from Utah. Or are you? Either way. Fuck off.

Sepholio 10-18-2017 09:22 AM

Wonder how Kyrie is feeling about that move to Boston now.

Ruien 10-18-2017 09:25 AM

Seeing as he was almost sent to the Suns probably pretty good.
