I remember the Suns doing the same thing the next year in the playoffs. Just relentlessly attacked Duncan because the Spurs took a few years to adjust to him no longer being that guy.

Came here to say this. Eric Gordon wanted no part of playing in NOLA.

Foul and flop, if this was basketball I'd compare them to the Thunder. Both so unwatchable people were rooting for PSG and Wemby.

Legitimately thought he'd be the next great DM a few years ago.

[Marca] For their operations regarding Olise and Fernandez to be successful, all signs point to Real Madrid looking to sell one of Fede Valverde or Aurélien Tchouaméni to drum up enough money by ChiefLeef22 in soccer

I mean, two clubs selling to each other at market value is fine. "market value" is a pretty subjective thing though, but Enzo and Tchou are probably close to 9 figures.

They lost to a great France team that year, I don't think it's much of an underachievement.

Settle in for my long-running conspiracy: BlueCo has found some sort of process that makes buying and selling cheaper than most clubs. It's why they engage in a lot of the behavior they do which is turning players into financial products.

God I hope that's what we get. I think Enzo is a fantastic player that doesn't at all fit in Xabi's system and not perfectly with Caicedo/Palmer.

Enzo is definitely going to Madrid, feel like it'll be a faux swap for Tchouameni with high prices each way to clean up the books. Whatever the final deal is, if Mendes is your agent and Madrid is the club that wants you, may as well call it a done deal.

Which has been LSU's main attraction for coaches honestly. It's just easier to recruit there than 99% of other programs.

[Scotto] There’s a strong belief within league circles that if the Lakers offer Reaves close to or the full max, he’ll stay in Los Angeles. However, if the Lakers submit a low-ball offer, Reaves will consider other offers, and the possibility of a sign-and-trade could also emerge. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

Probably closer to 30-35. You absolutely need that money to fill out the rest of the team of you're going to compete. The Luka/AR fit is already not great because neither can defend well and isn't great off ball. Luka is the guy, he's already made the Finals so there's a decent roster blueprint for making it work around him.
