You know it’s over when Lebron doesn’t throw his teammates under the bus :mjlol:

Any other year the team would be “top heavy as sh*t” or he would be about to start his two week vacation so they could trade everyone away by the time he gets back.

The KCP no trade clause is hitting different :wow:

Cousins was a professional from start to finish so it's nothing but respect.

Ensuring he gets paid for the rest of the year, "leaking" to sources that he's been a true professional (to reassure interested teams), and then allowing him out to find a team better suited for his short term and long term goals... is a nice move by the Rockets.

For Wall, Gordon, and them... :manny:

The roster is what it is.

I wonder if PJ Tucker gets bought out as well

He makes a ton of sense for Denver, Brooklyn & Philly

CP3 top 3 MVP candidate. The narrative is there for it to happen.

Seriously he has to but cp3 got robbed a couple times for mvp

I think it'll come down to who has the best record. So many star players are performing at a high level that the top mvp candidates fluctuate every couple weeks. Month ago it was Jokic, Embiid, Kawhi, KD. Then the Lebron campaign started. Wardell start picking up support last couple weeks. Dame this past week. Now CP3 could bump Phoenix up to the 3rd or 2nd seed by next week. Hell you're gonna start hearing Harden's name more if he continues carrying BK with KD/Kyrie out intermittently.

Embiid and Jokic have been the two constants but with Embiid load managing and Jokic's team still struggling to win consistently, it gives a lot of openings for the other guys.
