Bob Myers (who works for the 6ERS now) was on Rich Paul’s (Lebrons agent) podcast. Rich has said the 6ERS where an option, there was a white board where he broke down all of Lebrons options and why lol
- Comment on LeBron James says he will play with the Philadelphia 76ers next season 1 week ago:
The C’s only saved like 3mil in that trade though, which makes me think it wasn’t just money?
Brown - $57,078,728
George - $54,126,380

Makes sense basketball fit wise. They need a back up Center though, unless Bron is going to play the 5?
Maxey PG - Edgecomb SG - Brown SF - Lebron PF - Embiid/? C
Personally kind of fucked that he’s moving across the country from his family. That’s why I realy thought he’d go to the Warriors or back to the Cavs.

Does he though lol?

Geez, LW defederated from ML?
I think I’m wrong about that, again don’t quote me on any of this. But from what I remember LW has defederated from a bunch of other instances and that’s what OP has a problem with. I don’t follow all the “politics” with Lemmy so I can’t explain further.
OP made a post about it not long ago, you can search their history for more answers maybe?
- Comment on Alternative Instance for this Community Vote 2 weeks ago:
I think its because lemmy.world has defederated from lemmy.ml, which op uses.
- Comment on Alternative Instance for this Community Vote 2 weeks ago:
I love the idea of team flair, I think it would add a lot to the community. Idk anything about this “controversy” and honestly don’t have the time or want to look into it, my opinion could change because of it but ¯(ツ)/¯

I get the idea, hand the team over to Acuff which is smart. But they couldn’t get a couple second round pick or something for the guy lol?

- Comment on Lakers Trade for Walker Kessler 4 weeks ago:
I really haven’t watched him play much honestly. He was injured basically all of last season, the season before that he averaged 12.5reb 2.4blk, if we get numbers like that from a 25 y/o center then its worth it. Dudes basically Rudy but he can catch a basketball at that point lol
- Comment on The Celtics are trading Brown to the 76ers 4 weeks ago:
Maxey, Edgecombe, and Brown is an amazing core of players. If the 6ers can add some depth around that they’re looking like serious contends.
On the other hand, wtf are the Celtics doing? That’s really the best offer they got?
- Comment on Lakers Trade for Walker Kessler 4 weeks ago:
If you have Luka and Reaves as your backcourt you need a great rim defender. Did the Lakers overpay, yeah probably. But, I just spent all season riding the Deandre Ayton rollercoaster and I’m ready to get off lol
- Comment on Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers for Jerami Grant and Kris Murray 4 weeks ago:
Decent move by Portland, take a shot at a former allstar theoretically entering his prime while not giving up to much.
- Comment on Reports: Wolves land LaMelo Ball in blockbuster trade with Hornets | NBA.com 5 weeks ago:
And his brother was out of the league by 28 because of “similar” injuries I think. I can’t help but wonder if that’s from their dad forcing them to wear those garbage shoes lol?
- Comment on Reports: Wolves land LaMelo Ball in blockbuster trade with Hornets | NBA.com 5 weeks ago:
I think the biggest part is it’ll take some load off of Ant. It seems like every year Ant either runs out of gas or gets injured cause he had to do everything on offense.
- Comment on Sources: Bulls finalizing hire of Tiago Splitter as head coach 1 month ago:
I understand the situation but, dude was the head coach for 81 games this season plus the playoffs. Did a great job from what I’ve seen, and Portland let him walk, why?
- Comment on Sources: Bulls finalizing hire of Tiago Splitter as head coach 1 month ago:
Portland makes the playoffs for the first time since like 2020 and Ddn’t resign their first year head coach? Brilliant move lol

Shout out to Nico Harrison for not resigning Jalen Brunson when he had the chance. Truly the worst of all time lol.

Mitch is little boying Wemby down low
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Knicks vs Spurs – Game 5 1 month ago:
Going for a loose ball, also a foul now lol
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Knicks vs Spurs – Game 5 1 month ago:
Wemby might as well start karate chopping people, he’s never getting that next flagrant lol
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Spurs vs Knicks – Game 4 1 month ago:
And Wemby missing both free throws with under 2-min left. Maybe Vic was projecting with those words lol
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Spurs vs Knicks – Game 4 1 month ago:

- Comment on Knicks have to start protecting Brunson better 1 month ago:
Yes, of course something can be dirty even if its not called lol.
- Comment on Wembanyama, Spurs stun Knicks at MSG to revive Finals hopes 1 month ago:
It literally might be his fault. Anything happening in Manhattan is a logistical nightmare, and these playoffs have been some of the worst I’ve seen.
Now add the President on top of that and all the extra security, they literally fenced off MSG and used pepper spray to dispurse the crowed last night… The players had to be patted down before being allowed into the locker rooms. A lot if athletes have pregame rituals and whatnot they do before every game and that got thrown off, I’m not surprised the Knicks started cold.

I can’t believe Bodega KAT is arguably the best player in the NBA Finals. Never thought I’d see the day but, the man’s out there making plays.

Analytically speaking he’s a great coach, so this is a great move…Analytically lol
- Comment on Knicks sweep Cavs, return to NBA Finals for 1st time since 1999 2 months ago:
Everybody says you have to build through the draft nowadays but, the Knicks starting five all came from FA signings and trades. I think Duece and Mitch are the only draft pics that get minutes in the playoffs.
- Comment on Chuck keeps it real - too many talking heads crying about softest fouls on Wemby! Chuck and Shaq say Spurs gameplan is terrible vs OKC 2 months ago:
The only time I saw the holding called was on Wemby, I haven’t watched every minute of every game though. I don’t have a problem with it if its called evenly as possible.
OKC is a dirty team though, they go out and try to hurt players. Like the two examples I gave above, when Dort tripped Joker, Shai trying to rip Austin Reaves arm off. And these are only example that I’ve personly seen, I’m sure there’s more.
And I’m not a Wemby fan, more of an OKC hater BTW lol
