It hurt when Lebron rejected NY for Miami. I kind of got bitter about him. I focused on his recruitment of other players instead of his actual intellect and skill. I think he was right though. I mean, I don't think the Knicks were a franchise that could really build his brand when he took the interview. They weren't. And that truth hurt. But I will tell you, if Lebron wanted to take a role in the Knicks front office like a Magic Johnson or a Jerry West did, gotta be honest, I would be there with open arms. The guy knows the game and the business of basketball. I had a change of heart.

Where is Triple Threat when you need him. He could explain all of Lebron's mistakes over the years as defacto GM

Spectacular, generational plyer for sure -- I still prefer Bird and Magic but whatever

Want no part of him.

Magic got a good head for business but his front office experience is debatable. Jerry West as a gm has grown quite a bit but the way he as portrayed in the HBO "Wining time" made him look like a bafoon.

Lebron the GM has not always made good moves but as a player wanting to "win now" it was understandable.
I think Lebron has eyes for the NBA if they expand into Vegas. The league would like that I would imagine.
True power is ownership. I'd think he goes there. Maybe as a Partner? To have controlling interest? I'd think he could do quite well.

The bench that has haunted us all year during the non-Brunson minutes is now dominating the playoff series for us. Love to see it.

Shaq is a twat.

Why?
We go nuclear on anyone that does not fawn over the knicks?

No, but I still haven't forgiven him for the disrespectful way he rode Chris Dudley like a horse.

It’s an ego thing. He bet against the Knicks and has been for awhile, going as far to say recently Orlando would smoke them in a playoff series. He and Perkins had a public squabble over it and Shaq dissed Perk in some scripted Instagram videos. Now Knicks are up 2-0 so he’s gotta protect his credibility by saying they don’t deserve it. Typical Shaq stuff.

Twatular.

Looks like the suns and lakers will be full of disgruntled superstars. Both are 0-2
Panos @ 4/23/2024 11:18 PM
Bucks lose
KnickDanger @ 4/23/2024 11:41 PM
Good night so far. Mavs lose and it will be great.
Chandler @ 4/24/2024 6:43 AM
Shaq has done many stupid things

Im trying to remember which celebrity he said he hooked up with — i want to say Julia ROberts which was a lie and he just assumed she would be cool with it as if he were a trophy

DLeethal @ 4/24/2024 8:12 AM
Shaq was boxing a picture of Kendrick Perkins last night on TV. Dude is so petty. He will keep going at Knicks hard just to double down on his pettiness now.
Nalod @ 4/24/2024 8:26 AM
Watching the petulant child that is Luka Doncic is a real turn off. I respect his talent but the display of whining after calls or disapproving when his mates make a mistake or don’t see something is awful.

Physically he looks like an eventual bad contract with many injuries to consider. Lets pass on this ball hog when he becomes “Disgruntled”. Brings no joy to the game.

I don’t watch much dallas but when I do it seems like Timmy Jr always has to leave with a bad ankle.

Unfortunate UK tweet crop.

It’s looking a bit dicey, McKenzi.

How about the Heat? No Butler or Rozier. Currently holding on to a 6 point lead over the Celtics in game 2 with 3:15 left in the 4th. (BTW, what the heck is up with the long break for game 2?! Sucks to be a #1 seed... need to wait 'til last min to know which opponent to play against... then there's a long break between game 1 and 2, so any advantage of "short rest" for the road team is negated)

Done and dusted. Heat/Celtics tied 1-1. :)
We're like a month away from a potential match up with either of these 2 teams, but it's nice to see the Celtics sputtering a bit.
