My favorite reply to that was that he has the potential to be prime Dwight Howard thanks to the Warriors winning culture.

He’ll just be their 5th max player after he shows what the Kings had been hiding for the last four seasons.

Max extension. Which is a surprising discount. If he waited for free agency he could have gotten way more.
Extension: $99,666,363 over four years ($24,916,591 annually)
Max re-signing: $204 million over five years ($39 million annually)
Max signing elsewhere: $151 million over four years ($38 million annually)
Super-max re-signing: $238 million over five years ($46 million annually)*

He could have, hypothetically... or, he could not have. He could have opted to bet on himself, and then torn his achilles. Draymond Green is not Kevin Durant: nobody is offering him a max deal to rehab for a year.
I think, generally speaking, if a player gets offered a long-term max extension, from a place they don't actually want to leave, they take it. If you want to stay, anyway, you're usually better off with that guaranteed money.

Although I have not been a fan of Lonzo Ball, I got to give him an mad respect for his new ink. "Lonzo Ball got Steve Butcher, the greatest tattoo artist on earth, to do this "Black Excellence" sleeve." https://t.co/KzoKnGMmaz
Michael Porter Jr posted Adam Silver's phone number and e-mail on his snapchat. At first I thought it might've been a small slip up that was accidentally included... but nope, a full pledged picture of his contact information. I never got this impression from him, but... he might be a bit... you know...dumb. Notice in the entire picture, he actually captions: "Lunch Yet?"

His feet placement looks different. Must’ve switched something up.
20lbs of muscle in a few months huh?
You'd think in today's golden age of technology and social media and having any and all information available at our fingertips that people would finally realize how freaking difficult it is (next to impossible) to add 20 pounds of muscle in 3 months naturally.
Woah, dare I say he actually does look bigger? Why couldn't he really does this with us though...
His main issue with us was his inconsistent shooting. He improved quite a bit from his rookie to sophomore year. If he takes a while to adjust the same way he did in college, he could develop into a pretty solid player over the next two years. I don't think he would have been traded if a guy like Barnes wasn't available.

I was listening to the radio the other day on the way home, and it was the afternoon ESPN radio show. One of the hosts was whining about Harden’s historic season and how he had such a solid point to be the MVP. “What Giannis did IN THE EASTERN CONFERENCE was good. What Harden did was HISTORIC!”
Then the other guy asked “What’s arguably the most important stat in judging a players value?” The first guy says “PERS.” The other guy answers “Yeah. And Giannis had a higher PERS than Harden.”
Got a hearty chuckle out of me.

I think this guy's pride is what got hurt because I don't see where he supposedly turned his ankle.
