Seriously

What could OKC and Durant be possibly meeting about for 5 hours? What information could they have possibly given him about the organization that he doesn't already know that they needed 5 hours to pitch him on.......and need another meeting on Wednesday?

I swear the NBA needs to start filming all this and turn it into a reality show because I just don't understand. All this just seems super dramatic.



They be trying to keep stuff private but this shyt would be great if they would show it on NBATV like 5 years after the fact.

@((ReFleX)) @AkaDemiK bet yall wish yall had Gobert right now :umad: :troll:
:mjcry:.....Dallas was always my biggest fear. I knew Cuban would make a crazy pitch to hassan. i'm sure the heat were hassan's first choice, but once cuban got in his hear and sold him the dream shyt was gonna be tough. hassan and cuban are like a match made in heaven. imagine being hassan and dealing with hard headed guys like spo and riley, then chillin with mark cuban who will go clubbin with you and have the baddest bytches in dallas gift wrapped at your doorstep. I said it before and i'll say it again. I wouldn't be mad at hassan one bit....this is what the heat deserve. I still can't believe the amount of disrespect hassan endured this past season....shyt was a complete disgrace. and then when the season is over, spo and riley wanna start kissing his ass :mjlol:......nah.....it's too late for that. as hard as it is to say, hassan would be straight STUPID to stay with the heat after how he was treated.


I can just picture pat riley's too cool for school ass panicking right now:pachaha:......these next couple hours is probably what hassan has been waiting for all season. to have pat riley and erik spoelstra in a room literally begging him to stay while he sits there like :troll:.......i'm sure he's gonna enjoy this ether he drops on em:francis:.....I can't even imagine the vindication he must feel:wow:

Not sure if I can think of a player who went from underrated to overrated to irrelevant faster than Gordon
To be fair Gordon is a fine player especially offensively but he was paid that big wop in LA and folks expected him to average 25 a game to go with his contract

Add that onto the fact he just can't stay healthy

He can help a number of teams with his shooting

ATL…overly
I had it at 0 just as recent as yesterday, given that he wants the Hawks to add more talent, I will say it's a 40 percent chance he leaves. I have little to no faith in Bud or Wilcox. These two love talking about a fukking system when they need to add talent. Thankfully at least Al is giving us time to assess the trade market.

I honestly don't think Atlanta saw him giving them a power move to improve. This is how delusional Bud is. I miss Ferry. He would make some deals and you would be like DAMN!.

There system is built around Horford. You take Al away. The defense folds. He covers for every player on the court and defends space and positioning as well as any big I've ever seen. This is on Bud. You can't keep getting swept and thinking, we just gotta work harder. No bytch, you need to get more talent. If they lose Horford, blow the fukking bytch up and fire everyone. Even the cameraman.

I agree with you damn near word for word :wow:

Part of me wants Al to leave just so we're forced to rebuild this team and this organizational culture...you can't keep thinking you can plug in avg players and get great results in the playoffs. They need to get great talent to truly compete and in their heart of hearts they know that a max deal for Al is ludicrous but I'm still convinced they'd rather stay the course with this roster and do minor tweaks as opposed to completely blow it up even if this teams ceiling is second round with no shot vs. CLE
