Rich Paul drops careful jewels about LeBron’s Free Agency decision:
“I’ve talked to about 12-14 teams, if anyone knows LJ he wants to be competitive. As long as theres indoor and outdoor golf, he’ll be fine.”
Ironically, the best state for outdoor golf, is also the best state for indoor golf.👀
Brian Windhorst & Tim McMahon say it’s looking unlikely that the Knicks & Kat come to an extension agreement:
“ It’s looking unlikely that they come to an agreement, he’s an extremely important player. He’s under contract for this season and has a $61m player option.”
“I think it’s something, but not everything. I don’t think it’s a toxic situation, and I credit Kat for that. Would he love to get a contract extension? Absolutely. Is he going to take way way below the market value? Entering a summer where a lot of teams are going to have a lot of cap space? No, he’s not going to take a low ball number.”

Brian Windhorst & Tim
McMahon absolutely FRY Bradley Beal:
“It’s kind of like starting, starting for an NBA player is very very important. It’s the same thing with numbers. Chris Paul’s identity is CP3. And even if you had a bad end to last season, and even if Chris Paul didn’t operate the way he said he was going to. You can’t give out his number this year! And you can’t give it to Bradley Beal. No offense to Bradley Beal.”
“No disrespect to Bradley Beal, but he wore zero last year and contributed zero. It’s not like he has any influence in LA.”

Brian Windhorst says the Clippers scouts were going to every raptors game:
“ There was an analysis done by the Raptors, they started noticing that the Clippers were coming to every single game. There was even one game, where Lawrence Frank the team president came to watch a game. It is very unusual for a team president to come to another teams game. So the Raptors were saying it’s getting so ridiculous that the Clippers are obviously smothering Kawhi. Very much like they do in AAU. This was back in 2018-2019.”
