They lost to the best team in league history twice and beat everyone else in 5. Choke is when you lose to inferior teams. They just haven’t been quite as good as GSW , but leaps and bounds better than everyone else.

Eric Gordon gets healthier because of Rox.

Chris Paul gets hurt. Not the Rox fault.

Am I doing this right?

Those days are over thankfully. We have a solid staff that knows what they are doing and an owner that is invested in making the franchise successful. Jrue will be a great leader for this team and Zion is gonna be great. We are a few vet free agents away from setting a very good culture and tone for the future. We are gonna be a strong force in 2-3 years

Can the Lakers not go over the Salary cap like the Warriors and just pay the luxury tax?

Gordon came from a losing culture where truth be told he probably did not know what it took to keep himself in top shape. He had never been around a harden before. You don’t know what you don’t know. And guys who come from losing franchises are in awe of the work done by top end players to keep themselves healthy. You hear it all the time.

No. You can only go over the cap to re-sign your own players and for exceptions (and minimum contract players).

Even taking on another max, adding all minimum players after that and using their exception, they won't be in the luxury tax this season.

Just throwing this out there: IF Butler opted-in, the Rockets could move Capela to a third team for a pick(s), PHI could get the pick(s) + a $20M TPE, and HOU could hold on to Gordon & Tucker. Rockets would only need to toss in a minimum guy (Clark or Hartenstein) to make it work



PiYOW.

What odds you giving? You got a plug that say he 100 on the way.

Need positive odds that he's not coming to do that.

going forward the bettor has to send me the money first. Then I send their money and mine if they win.
