You mean to tell me Jody Allen has more passion in basketball to keep the team over someone like Michael Jordan who LOVES the game?

Sell the fucking team Jody

Once the expansion happens Bert will sell the franchise. The new franchise country club dues is huge. Jody is paid monthly to manage the estate, where Bert will get a commission on the sale that he handles for the Estate.

Bonny went into cardiac arrest last night while practicing...wow, hope he makes a full and speedy recovery!

Full statement:

> "Yesterday while practicing Bronny James suffered a cardiac arrest. Medical staff was able to treat Bronny and take him to the hospital. He is now in stable condition and no longer in ICU. We ask for respect and privacy for the James family and we will update media when there is more information. LeBron and Savannah wish to publicly send their deepest thanks and appreciation to the USC medical and athletic staff for their incredible work and dedication to the safety of their athletes."

So, that would seem to close the door on Boston being a landing spot for Dame. Oh well, I would have hated seeing him in those ghastly green uniforms.

He would have had them wearing teal and black instead.

I would love this if true. I have my doubts. I don't see why Jody will ever want to relinquish ownership. She's talked about how these estates selling assets can normally have a ~20 year timeframe.

Bronny had a heart attack?? Literally???

Front page on ESPN. Out of ICU and stable. He was working out at USC so he was at the USC hospital very quickly. Too early to know long term diagnosis.

 

[HoopsFanAZ]

Jaylen Brown got the big bag and out of all trade rumors for at least the year.
Good for him the trade chatter is gone. With that contract, he’s staying put. Tatum up in a year.

Watch him pull a Dame now, waiting exactly one year and then demanding a trade to one team.

Sad, hope he is alright

Almost 70 mil. in last year of deal. 63 mil. in last year looking like chump change now.

Somebody might have answered this for me in the past, but HOW/WHY is Jaylen Brown eligible for the BIGGEST contract ever? Why not Stef or Dame or Bron or Luka?

Wemby needs an All-Star super duper max SF to get San Antonio in the playoffs.

Deep within the dense legalese of the new collective bargaining agreement lies a hidden clause, a bizarre provision that hardly anyone paid attention to – the "Arm-Wrestling Exception." The rule states that any player who manages to defeat the commissioner, Adam Silver, in an arm-wrestling contest, shall be granted the privilege of signing the biggest contract ever witnessed in the NBA.

Jaylen Brown challenged Silverto the ultimate test of strength. Witnesses recall how the crowd held their breath as the battle of biceps commenced. The intensity was palpable, but against all odds, Brown emerged victorious, sending shockwaves through the league.

Thank you for clearing that up…..that’s pretty much what I was thinking.

 

[BIG Q]

The real answer is just based off of when his contract comes up. Players, who always get the max and then get the super max set the new record every season now. Curry had it, then Dame, now Brown has the new record. The money is just getting shocking now, but franchise values have skyrocketed as well. Jordan made bank when he bought/sold the Hornets.

So it’s basically a timing thing then. Thank you. Wow Luka should have waited a year then?

Worse. Cardiac arrest. He basically died and then came back.

Trade Demand Coming Soon.

Jayson Tatum must be Jealous.
