Love how so many teams are "tanking" for this potentially spectacular draft class.

Watch Wiggins and the Kentucky boys all stay.

But I also think these teams are tanking and freeing up as much cap space as possible just aiming to throw their hat in the Lebron sweepstakes next season. Potentially going to be quite a few good players becoming FAs next year.

i wish LeBron spent his career signing nothing but one year deals, switching to a new team every season, instantly transforming each into legit contenders; him and Jordan (and maybe Bird and Magic) are the only non-centers in league history capable of that sort of impact

7/12/2013 8:39:05 AM

If so, LBJ will make Decision every summer.

No, LBJ won't surpass Jordan.

Lol maybe magic?

Magic at his peak was a human wrecking ball

7/12/2013 8:59:26 PM

based on lore and his accompanying stats, no doubt

but I'm not comfortable making such assertions about a player I never really watched; even with Jordan I hesitate because my view of him is stained by the dopeyness of youth

7/13/2013 6:29:04 AM

LOL. DH is a member of wolfpack!

7/14/2013 9:04:20 AM

That's a longhorn symbol Tree...

7/14/2013 12:01:08 PM

not to mention his fucked up ear

7/14/2013 12:03:38 PM

Didn't know Ralph Sampson was sooo tied to the Rockets organization. Seeing that he never won a championship at the college level (suck it)...guess he has to hang his hat on something.

7/14/2013 12:23:59 PM

The lakers are building their worst roster ever. Nick young and wes Johnson lol

7/14/2013 12:28:46 PM

Alright. Huh...

7/14/2013 1:13:03 PM

the guy on espn radio nailed it, had to be four tallest fuckers in a room of all time (yao ming who towers over howard, sampson, hakeem dwight), that's also kind of impressive loyalty those guys had for their franchises, I didn't think nba players really cared like that

7/14/2013 2:50:39 PM

It's not about loyalty. It's about fame.
If they want to go into Hall of Fame and become a true legend, they need support from their previous teams. They want their jerseys hanging over in the Toyota arena!

[Edited on July 14, 2013 at 3:01 PM. Reason : At least Yao probably wants that.]

7/14/2013 2:57:38 PM

Yao will be in the Meme Hall of Fame for sure

Sampson is one of the greatest basketball players this planet has ever produced; that's plenty to hang his hat on

let 'em burn, yet still miss out on a top10 pick in next years draft; i've hated the Lakers ever since they ditched Sedale Threatt

That's a stretch

7/15/2013 5:51:55 PM

He was pretty damn baller until his knees gave out on him

7/15/2013 7:51:36 PM

So who coaches the teams in the summer?

7/18/2013 10:01:18 PM

assistants usually

Jason Kidd coached for the Nets, though, because he's going into the season with zero experience

7/19/2013 8:29:47 AM

I was listen to the Paul Pirece (sp?) press yesterday for the Nets and you tell how sad he was. This is why I am for players taking the own destiny in their hands.

7/19/2013 8:33:28 AM

He could have become a legend in Boston.

7/19/2013 9:03:15 AM

He will retire Green when it's all said and done.

For now the Celtics front office really screwed the pooch on this one...

7/19/2013 6:56:38 PM

how?

by stacking an absolutely ridiculous amount of 1st round picks over the next 5+ years?

7/19/2013 7:10:53 PM

7/20/2013 11:09:37 AM

Where is this pic taken?

7/20/2013 11:52:40 AM

Seriously? I mean if she's just throwing dirt at Duncan, I would say thats classless...

But if true, woaah...

7/21/2013 8:30:53 PM

Fisher back with OKC

7/25/2013 11:13:29 AM

Maybe Duncan can start banging some hot broads finally (or dudes...what floats his boat).

7/25/2013 11:37:00 AM

Derrick Rose said he 's the best player in the NBA right now....

7/25/2013 4:19:14 PM

^ LOL. Maybe he is trying to be like Eli when he claimed to be a top-5 QB. Although Eli did go out and back that up.

7/25/2013 5:15:18 PM

I'm pretty sure Eli never sat on the bench and refused to play when healthy.

7/25/2013 5:34:26 PM

Funny part is rose has never been the best pg in the league or the best player on his own team. Hes delusional.

7/25/2013 6:43:19 PM

He had a pretty good year when he won MVP, but I agree, he's no Kobe

7/25/2013 8:38:56 PM

^^ Why is he never the best player of Bulls? Who else is better than him?

7/26/2013 9:05:36 AM

is that a joke, shoot? noah, butler, gibson just to name a few...

7/26/2013 9:55:26 AM

But in the year when Rose won the MVP award, he was a young superstar in the league.

7/26/2013 10:30:49 AM

Ppl in China be crazy

7/26/2013 11:39:09 AM

OMG

7/26/2013 4:46:01 PM

Scola to the Pacers

much better than Hansbrough

7/27/2013 7:57:01 AM

So the Pacers think Russell Brand will help them get past the Heat?

7/27/2013 10:55:56 AM

Scola was actually horrible the last two seasons. Hes washed up he cant help them. Hansbrough was actually pretty decent last year. Solid backup but hes probably peaked.

7/27/2013 11:39:20 AM

Jeremy Lin may be traded again.
But someone also thinks he, Howard and Harden are the Houston's Dirk, Finley and Nash.

7/27/2013 2:36:43 PM

^^obviously Scola is on the decline, especially without all those international miles on his tires, but i'm gonna be optimistic and hope the extent of his most recent deterioration says more about what a disaster it was/is in Phoenix than about him. as a 2nd unit guy, i think he's still a big man you can productively run your offense through. there's more value in that than what Hansbrough offers.

7/28/2013 7:50:42 AM

I still haven't seen anyone can beat Heat next yr.
