My 2 cents - Jenga = once first block falls the rest will. Introvert = Kawhi King’s Ransom = LBJ Granger’s mentee = Paul George Teams with $20 Mill to spend: St. Louis Cathedral – New Orleans Allen Bradley – Milwaukee ViVi – Sacramento Ryan McDonough – Phoenix Love OR someone from Milwaukee to Phoenix is being discussed
Ok ya'll, I know I said PG and LeBron were locks to become Lakers a year ago. It was true. PG was on board. But when he decided to stay in OKC, I was SHOCKED. I found out last night from one of my clients that Paul George essentially "wussed out". The dude really did not want the pressure. He straight up backed out of signing with LA. He backed out and that's why the LeBron and the Lakers pivoted to Kawhi. I'm just stunned at why PG took the deal he did. I question his basketball intelligence if he says he wants to win a championship. It completely came out of left field, especially when he was the first to commit to LA before Lebron last year. Anyway, LeBron coming to LA was never contingent to Paul George signing or even Kawhi, obviously. He was set from day one. The Space Jam 2 trailer was cancelled, but it did contain LeBron wearing his Laker uniform. There's so much more info I'm starting to hear, especially some Rockets tidbits. But with the way ya'll treat me sharing information, it's best I not share. People get all worked up! So if you want me to apologize, I apologize that Paul George did not sign with the Lakers. It turned out to be false! I was for sure he was going to be a Laker. A lot of us in the industry were sure. But the unthinkable sometimes happens (see Hillary Clinton vs Donald Trump). However, LeBron was a man unafraid to take on the pressure of playing in Los Angeles. He understands what it takes to wear a Laker uniform. And it's still perplexing to me that Paul George, a California native, of all people, did not have it in him. Again, if you want my apology, I apologize that I led you to believe Paul George was going to sign with the Lakers. I'm only as good as what my sources tell me, just like any other reporter (not saying that I'm a reporter or insider). But things happen. Things change. I can only wish Paul George good luck in what he's aspiring to do for himself. As for LeBron, I hope I delivered the truth. I told you he was going to sign a 4-year max. Not a 1 +1. He's a Laker for life. That's all, folks!
He's being childish. "I was gonna do this but since you did that, I won't." Go on and take your ball home then. Deuces
Appreciate all the info we can get here. I think people get worked up here when insiders pretend that they are insiders or everything they say is set in stone.
dont let this dude fool you. real insiders dont write novels and copy and paste it in 5 threads threatening to withhold info if you are mean
I don't think so. I think daryl is hoping a young guy on a cheap contract steps up. He's probably tired of shuffling around for established known goods with big contracts.
