I knew about revenue sharing when I was doing the post bro, I was being facetious. Thanks for taking the wind out my sails…

Send Tyreke Evans to Chicago for Loul Deng. Everyone gets what they want except, well, Deng who would probably milk that wrist surgery and come back after D-Rose does.

” Tyreke Evans has told the Sacramento Kings he doesn’t want to play the small forward next year. The smart money is he doesn’t play for the Kings next year — his name comes up in all kinds of trade rumors”

This is incorrect on so many levels. First, the trade rumors come up from BLOGS. speculation over the course of a period of time all of a sudden = validity?? Rediculous. Secondly, Tyreke is not unhappy. Third, he wont be traded.

Exactly who wants to play for the Lakers? Who wants to play with Bryant? Name one Big Name Free Agent that has chosen to sign with the Lakers since Bryant has been there. As long as Bryant is there no one will be coming. The ones that do play for the Lakers now want to be traded due to his arrogance. The days of trading old players, salaries, & other teams dumping their star players to the Lakers is over. It’ll be 1992-1995 all over again for awhile while they dump salaries, try & get mid level talent, & Bryant will be demanding a trade …again after another first round knock out.

there’s also revenue sharing between teams and players of all basketball related income as well between teams. all that laker money doesn’t stay with the lakers. i guess that explains why you aren’t the GM

And “pairity” sucks d***. Look what it’s gonna do to the poor small market Thunder! They actually did things the “right” way with smart drafting and they’re going to eventually get penalized for it!?? How freaking ridiculous. I like that team together, they’re very exciting with Durant-Westbrook-Harden-Ibaka.

I like Harden but no one wants to see him leave to be the 1st or 2nd option on a team elsewhere. That’s Joe Johnson leaving the Suns to go to Atlanta allllllllll over again!! (Remember how fun a Nash-Johnson-Marion-Stoudemire team was to watch?)

Eventually there will be teams with only 2 players that you want to see and pay for expensive ass, slightly below nose-bleed seats and a bunch of scrubs no one cares about, and it’s the day you go and one of the two stars is hurt that day or out with a flu. GTFOH!

PS.- F*** David Stern and his ruining of this league!!! Next on his list of crap to put the NBA under is that stupid “as-soon-as-the-ball-touches-the-rim-you-can-goaltend” international bullshit and his dumb USA 23 and under ideas. STOP RUINING OUR NBA YOU SNAKE!!!!!!!!

C’mon Lakerrrss!, What’s an extra $52 million in taxes to a team that makes $200 million on a television deal alone, not including everything else they make money off of being the worlds favorite team!? Stay competitive and keep winning championships and the bill will take care of itself, C’moooon, you can do it!
