Honestly I think it might be pressure from the rest of the league about the back end dealings that the Lakers and their agents are doing. It's been happening for years now in the league, I think its hit a boiling point.
Yeah but I'm curious to know why many here thinks Clippers are now in the running...
That's how I read it. I don't think Butler returns. He's already had issues with Embiid and confronted the coach. I think he's gone this summer.
Because AD said that he would sign long term with the Clippers, Knicks, Bucks, and Lakers?
Oh... ok, I missed that rumour.
Not so shut down or clickbaity?? lol
They din’t Coming to Utsh. No matter what.
No, it happens when you use 5 draft picks (2 for Burke, then Exum, Hill and Rubio) trying to get a PG and end up with one who can't shoot consistently and one who hasn't proven much except in the eyes of a few staunch homeboys. It also happens when you sell pick after pick instead of finding a few rotation players in the 2nd round. It happens when you have a ton of cap space year after year but don't sign any free agents that could later be tradeable assets. Don't blame Hayward. I hate the guy, but a lot saw that coming. And very few GM's arrange for trade exceptions when they're about to sign free agents.
