But ... the all-star game!

I’m fascinated by the “old owner will still make all basketball decisions even after I paid *B*illions to be the actual owner” caveats to the reported #Celtics and now #Lakers sales. There is literally no point in spending that loot unless you’re THE owner. #NBASky

Oh

I see that the national NBA folks are finally coming around to, oh, I dunno, what was written / reported locally on ... checks dates - April 30 & May 14 re: Giannis Antetokounmpo and the #Bucks 🤫 #NBASky www.jsonline.com/story/sports... www.jsonline.com/story/sports...

The NBA Finals are just about over, but the draft and free agency are right around the corner. For the newbies on here, bumping this starter pack for some great NBA follows!

Why

Sad but true: The healthiest team generally* wins the title. Tough end for Indy in that regard the last two postseasons. #NBASky

Interesting to hear the nugget from LeBron James about the RINGZ discourse. I think he helped add to it with the move to Miami, then back to Cleveland. But honestly, Giannis Antetokounmpo is really the only star player left out there publicly talking about chasing titles. #NBASky (1/3)

If it's true the #Spurs are kicking the tires on a vet to sort of help push their timeline a little quicker with Victor Wembanyama...but also realizing they have no shooting & Dylan Harper doesn't add said shooting... Send No. 2 to Washington for Middleton & No. 6 & 18 & draft Knueppel #NBASky

The Desmond Bane acquisition by the Magic is a great positional fit, great offensive fit & a wonderful fit for their defensive-first culture. Also, f-- the picks. But what's wild is that now they're a first apron team. Which means they'll have fun for this season and next. #NBASky

What'd I miss?

Oh

Catching up on a variety of podcasts & I’m always amused when my colleagues assume: * every all-star wants to win a chip. * fans will be TOTALLY fine with their team trading their best player for a shit return. * Assuming (again) massive trades = title when time & again that rarely works.

Ah

Hell of a photo

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.
