NBA ALCHEMY Summer Edition EP-4

I don't feel the least bit sorry for owners. Player too lead a charmed life but they're the ones I spend time and money on to watch play.

Me, I was glad to see Kawhi end up with the Clips – the idea of him going to play with LBJ and AD was just too much for me, and I really wanted Canada to come crashing down as fast as possible after their undeserved championship. What gave me hope was all the heads saying the Clips were out of it, and they are so reliably wrong. What really surprised me was the PG13 thing, and what it showed in spades was the absurdity of the NBA situation these days, the way that these superstars can treat the teams and the cities like whores in a whorehouse – I have no problem with what George did, he just made obvious what the situation was already. So the big market teams make their haul and small markets like OKC and NOLA admit they have to rely on the draft and rookie contracts. What’s great to me about this is that the Clips do end up E-Clipsing the Lakers, and both have pushed the NY situation to the back of the bus. The Nets swapping Russell for Kyrie and having to wait a year for Durant with their fingers crossed, that Durant will still be a max player and that Kyrie won’t implode the team in the meantime, makes me think they may not have actually done that much better than the Knicks. And with the growing legacy of KD’s reasons for departure – Dray (accurately) calling him a bitch, Steph not bromancing him enough, Kerr being irritating, Myers publicly insulting him at the victory parade, Klay spending too much time with Rocco, on and on – focusing on what number he’ll wear 15 months from now seems fitting, for a guy who if he’s proven anything it’s that he’s not “a grown man”. The one really stupid thing about this is Lacob retiring a GSW number that the guy attached to it has thrown it away already. What it all shows is that the lunatics are running the asylum – it’s not egalitarian Marxism, it’s the janitors running the company. A guy like George can sign a long-term max deal and then decide he wants to leave a year later and end up where he was intending all along, because another max guy wants to go there but doesn’t want to play with the max guy who’s already there and doesn’t want to be the only max guy on his team, while the owners are all bent over, pants around the ankles, saying, “no lube please!” Anyway, I think the west looks really promising for next year, especially during the regular season, where it’ll apparently be small-market established teams like Denver, Utah and Portland against the LA load management superteams, and the huge question marks in Houston and SFW, plus the easy-to-forget SAS. Those should be the playoff teams, especially if Russ gets shipped out, which almost has to happen; my guess is he’ll end up in the east. Mavs, Kings, Pels - not quite there yet. Unless Houston self-destructs, that is. Finally, I was glad to hear Damian “You Won’t Have DJ to Kick Around Anymore” Jones was traded. My guess would be that his playing in the rookie league was so other teams could see him play after the injury, and he may have known that. But the reason I’m glad he’s gone is that I won’t have to listen to all the dumping on him next year – I was seriously considering terminating my patronage over that! 😉

Woooow Alch, the “Hoe” and the “Fat Boys” LMAO 😂 I’m weak!

Glad to see DJ gone, our bigs gotta be goons, and DJ can't even pretend to bully

I wonder how long it will take for expectation to set in. It’s all fun when you are the upstart Clippers.

😂

Lol hopefully it’s a good balance

Athletic Alchemy

Every situation is its own. But back to PG bitchassness his was hella phony! You can’t do what he did and in the same breath say you love the city and Russ.

Athletic Alchemy

Alch, off topic, with all these "thank you" posts from players that got traded or left their cities for other teams, are we gonna see one from KD???

Alch a savage with some of those lines

Nikolai Kochukov

I feel exactly how you feel about Russ, it's kinda sad in a weird way nobody seems to like him lol. Not for long anyway.

Thomas Joseph

bro ballmer looks like a cool, fun energetic guy😂 i fucks w it

Tony Stark

This team has such an extreme dichotomy of profiles. You’ve got Saccharin Swaggy on one side, then the Buffet 3 on the other.

Haha, welcome to my world. Balmer annoyed the fuck out of me all of the 90's and part of the 2000's when he was at MS. We call him Monkey Boy at my office.

I read somewhere on Twitter that Hawks fans used to call Spellman Weightmond Green.
