For clarity, this will be a small-ish presser with just Rafael, since KD won't physically be in town prior to Summer League. They're hopeful of...
I just think it sorta comes with the territory once they traded for a 37-year-old All-Star. Context. But yes, they basically swapped Cam’s higher...
They definitely talked to his management, that’s part of how they knew these discussions were happening! His agent just didn't want to say...
So do we still think Shams/Kelly were blindly guessing, speculating, and/or making things up? Just checking.
You can say all the right things, and it doesn't mean that it automatically happens. Yes, I feel confident in saying the Rockets tried to empower...
Nothing concrete yet, but beyond the obvious "going big" stuff, I do think they realize that they've got to make Reed feel more empowered. There's...
Fair points, appreciate the clarifications and kind words. After seeing that Cam thread last week where a few people were accusing Shams/Kelly of...
When Dame doesn't come here for his rehab tour, it's probably my fault
Fair. FWIW, I do think the internal belief is that FVV is much closer to 2023-24 than 2024-25, and that most of last season was a combination of a...
Tari has some potential in that area, too. I thought he showed a lot of promise in that during the early parts of 2023-24 (including stretches...

Just to clarify, when talking about last season's data, they're referring to Fred OR Jalen plus three wings and a center. Or, late in the year, I...
Eh, I don't think it's lazy, I'm sure he's tried to find out more. He just clearly hasn't been given that level of additional info, so he's...
To be fair, I do respect this argument. I agree that playing it fast and loose with anonymous sources, which happens more and more these days (not...
I would bet my entire life savings that you're wrong, and I'd win. I can also promise you that Shams does not speculate. The industry has...
Yeah, the idea that Kelly Iko is making stuff up for The Athletic — or that Shams is just spitballing random names on ESPN out of speculation — is...
They have up to the $14.1 million NT-MLE after Fred's restructure, and only one team in the entire league (Brooklyn) has cap space. There will...
If you think Shams is going on ESPN and just spitballing random guesses, I dunno what to tell you. You don't have to agree with it and that's...
Couple things: 1.) As we've seen quite a few times in sports this decade, commissioners work for the owners. So, while I think Adam Silver would...
