Nice try LeBron, but that's not what you said.

Sad to hear he's gone through a difficult week though. People should really think about the multi millionaire athletes before they tweet about human rights.

The difficult week tweet was worse than original comment. Making himself look worse than when he did The Decision.

Eating 2 minute noodles because you're a regular in Pricey's punting thread makes not a 'business interest' mate

You know for a fact I buy said noodles in bulk from China.

She's not wrong (at least about this). Following up "he could have waited a week" with "Injustice Anywhere Is A Threat To Justice Everywhere" is incredibly cowardly and self-serrving

But LeChina had a tough week.

Ill have a go. Tipping Miami, Mavs and Pistons are the teams teams most underate in my view. Mavs because Porzingis and Doncic look ridiculously good in the pick and roll. With Porzingis my tip for comeback player of the year. They also have a few really good complimentary role playing veterans. Detroit because I think Rose will be truly great this year and make the All Star game. Hopefully Thon's also a good surprise for them. He's been dribbling the ball a lot more in preseason games. Heat because they look like they are prepared to bring in another player (eg Paul) by going into luxary tax land. That and Hero looks like he'll add a lot to their outside scoring power and of course the addtiion of Butler.
Hard to split some of the up and coming teams like Atlanta and Orlando. Im going with the Lakers to have the third best record as they dont have the depth of Denver, Utah and Clippers, but then win it after a tough western conference finals series against Philly.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this will definitely not happen.

I dont mind different opinions, but geez definitely not happen. Get a grip. Nothing is definite this time of year so you're wrong before the season even starts. If Ben hits his jumpers more and if Lebron and Davis stay healthy then Im pretty sure there is at least a chance of it happening.

Simmons can hit 100% of his threes and Davis can be scientifically engineered into a half-man, half cyborg, but I promise you the Lakers will never defeat the Sixers in the Western Conference Finals.

Definitely could happen. Detroit at 5 is a bit of a stretch but he has the Knicks at 12 so will forgive him for a few errors.

Oh no, not you too...

How come trade period journos have hacked posters accounts?

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Whoa, sorry Lebron didn’t see you there.
