    No. Steele in both places would be the real one. This one is Steel on the Twitter handle.

    Edit: This guy is fake, but I have no idea what I'm talking about either. I hate fake Twitter things.

    If anything it’s a bad sign that he’s saying LBJ to the Rockets because he’s never been right.

    If Ainge knew Magic wasn't lasered-on and enamored with Ball at #2, he doesn't trade down, and takes Tatum #1 instead. Magic telegraphed the Ball pick enough for Ainge to sucker Philly into trading up and tossing in a good future pick.

    Ainge said in a conference call Monday after the trade was formally announced. "We think there's a really good chance the player we'll take at 3 is the same player we would have taken at 1. So this was a great opportunity to acquire an impactful asset."​

    There's still time tomorrow but it's still probably not happening. I think he stays in Cleveland and that was always the most likely outcome.

    Meh if he doesn’t want to play in Houston and have the best chance to win then he doesn’t deserve the city of Houston. LA population are a bunch of entitled narcissistic clowns with delusions of grandeur and no sense of reality outside of its city limits. We are resilient, selfless people and have proven that in the city’s darkest hours. Selfless Culture > Selfie Culture. LBJ doesn’t deserve us.

    Randle is RFA. He'd have to agree to a contract with the Spurs in the next 24 hours and the Spurs finding a salary to match. It's essentially impossible to pull off.

    I’d say it would be surprising if LeBron is not a Laker at this point. That said, there are some factors that need to be acknowledged on this crucial date of 6/29.

    1. Woj, the most reliable NBA insider in history, stated a little over a week ago that Chris Paul is as focused on recruiting LeBron to the Rockets as he has been about anything in his career, implying it was a possibility, especially considering all the anecdotes of CP3/LeBron’s relationship.

    2. Both Sam Amick and Jonathan Feigen, generally considered solid in their insight with the Rockets, reported that the Rockets front office is still in full throttle of securing a route for LeBron to Houston. This was only 2 days ago. Morey has gone all out in failed ventures before, but I believe CP3’s insight would probably deter him if it was futile.

    3. The widely reported uncertainty of LeBron opting to become a free agent, with allusions to the importance of today.


    I do not believe there is enough reason to feel too much optimism in securing him, but there’s defintely a plausible timeline that results in a trade today.

    I'd be shocked if lebron went to the Lakers at this point. Their roster has barely changed an inch . Still tons of uncertainty.

    After all of this, LeBron is going to stay with Cleveland for at least one more year.

    I hope you’re right, but I just cannot bring myself to discredit all the buzz that he wants to be a Laker.
