I missed what has been going on with him. Why was he or his social media under inveatigation? This appears to be a force out to suprress the investigation findings imo.
Had a burner account I don’t think the record that’s out there (36-2) is true but it appears his family is Celtics fans. NBA does have corrupt refs. Tried to make Tim Donaghy the fall guy, “an isolated incident”. (Let’s be honest) Forced Eric Lewis into retirement. Scott Foster is corrupt. Tony Brothers is corrupt. Ken Mauer (don’t think he’s reffing anymore and hasn’t since they mandated the covid jab) Who else is corrupt? Who else has secret burners?
A few Rockets Legends™ https://hoopshype.com/lists/most-overpaid-nba-players-of-all-time/ 1. John Wall Seasons overpaid vs. underpaid: 5-8 Real Value: $161,517,595 Career earnings: $276,580,866 Difference: -$115,063,271 (-41.60 percent) Another season of minimal playing vaulted John Wall to the No. 1 spot in this ranking (he was No. 6 before 2022-23), as our metric now values the five-time All-Star as the most overpaid player in NBA history. Of course, that’s no fault of Wall’s, as he underwent multiple major injuries during what should have been his prime, a peak that had him looking like one of the best point guards in the league for a time. Wall was never able to regain that borderline All-NBA form after the injuries. In 2022-23, he played 34 unimpactful games for the Los Angeles Clippers, averaging 11.4 points on 40.8 percent shooting while earning $47.4 million. Real Value had him worth $4.8 million for an astronomical $42.6 million overpay. Most of the money Wall earned came from the Houston Rockets, though the contract itself was signed when Wall was still with the Washington Wizards. It must also be pointed out that Wall still had more seasons in which Real Value believed he was underpaid (he had eight of those, per Real Value, to five seasons where he was overpaid). The problem is, the returns from his massive last contract from the Wizards were borderline non-existent leading to Wall now being in first place in our ranking of the most overpaid players in NBA history. 2. Gordon Hayward 3. Klay Thompson 4. Tyson Chandler 5. Juwan Howard Seasons overpaid vs. underpaid: 14-5 Real Value: $67,627,323 Career earnings: $151,839,471 Difference: -$84,212,148 (-55.46 percent) After just two seasons in the NBA and one All-Star appearance, Juwan Howard’s services were already the subject of a bidding war between the Miami Heat and Washington Wizards, one in which the latter party came out victorious. Howard got a seven-year, $105 million deal with the then-Bullets, an enormous deal for the time. The problem for Washington was Howard didn’t develop much after his first two seasons, never making another All-Star campaign and experiencing little team success until late in his career. Howard’s most overpaid season came in 2002-03 when he earned $20.6 million while averaging 18.4 points over 77 games, a $13.4 million overpay, according to Real Value. 6. Kevin Love 7. Dikembe Mutombo Seasons overpaid vs. underpaid: 16-2 Real Value: $63,928,441 Career earnings: $143,666,581 Difference: -$79,738,140 (-55.50 percent) One of the best defensive players ever, ranking second in NBA history in blocks, Dikembe Mutombo was highly paid throughout his career, almost to an inflated extent. Mutombo never developed into much of an offensive threat outside of lobs and near-bucket finishing and yet ranked Top 11 in salary nine times throughout his 18-year career, even peaking as the league’s second-highest-paid player in 2004-05 when he made $19.5 million. Needless to say, that was an overpay. In fact, that year was Mutombo’s most overpaid campaign, per Real Value, as he averaged 4.0 points and 5.3 rebounds over 80 appearances for an overpay of $17.3 million, according to the metric. 8. Nicolas Batum 9. Chandler Parsons Seasons overpaid vs. underpaid: 6-3 Real Value: $49,902,469 Career earnings: $127,164,774 Difference: -$77,262,305 (-60.76 percent) Considered one of the worst contracts in NBA history, former NBA forward Chandler Parsons signed a four-year, $94.5 million deal with the Memphis Grizzlies in the summer of 2016, despite showing signs of injury troubles in the seasons just prior to that. The contract went even more disastrously than expected, as Parsons would go on to play in 34, 36, 25 and five games in the four campaigns of the deal, never averaging more than 7.9 points in that span of time before being out of the league by his age-32 season. In that five-game season, Parsons was paid $25.1 million for contributions Real Value deemed worth roughly $509,000, a gargantuan $24.6 million overpay. 10. Al Horford 11. Andrew Wiggins 12.

Trey Murphy III, who showed the promise of a future All-Star in his second season, injured the knee in a workout at the team’s practice facility. Further evaluation will determine the recovery route, sources said. A surgical procedure on the meniscus would likely sideline Murphy for the first few months of the season. A non-surgical alternative would likely cause him to miss significantly less time out of the lineup — perhaps as short as six-to-eight weeks. Source: Adrian Wojnarowski @ ESPN
I saw Amen Thompson in that game until I realized it was Ausar. Almost the entire Pistons' squad is on a team in some of these runs. lol. I did see former Rockets Legend Kenyon Martin, Jr. in those runs, as well as future Rockets Legend Jabari Smith. Saw Jabari bring the ball up the court a few times.
I know it's just Rico Hines, but Cunningham is really looking like the total package. Excellent passing, post-ups and outside shooting, to go along with a poise on the court. Ausur Thompson is also looking like a legit small forward out there.
