King of Wisconsin… Giannis or Rodgers?

But the team finally has it's young star they can build around so there is hope.

What's the likelihood he stays?

Crappy owners have a lousy track record of being able to hold onto premier talent...look no further than the New Orleans Hornets (Pelicans).

#4 pick Chris Paul, left.  #1 pick Anthony Davis, gone.  #1 pick Zion Williamson, sure sounds like he's got one foot out the door.

Why?

Because ownership sucks and these players can see there is no path toward consistent success for the organization (much less a championship).

If the key operating hierarchy within the Bobcats remains Mike Jordan > Mitch Kupchak (age 67) > James Jordan > Buzz Peterson...

...LaMelo Ball will leave.

If you hate the guy just say that and move on man. I'm not making any excuses for his failures it's all there for us to see.

I don't hate anyone.

Maybe. I could see him wanting a big market for the extra money. We will have a chance to max him out. It looks like the Hornets have already signed his brother to play on the Summer League. (Similar to what the Bucks did with Giannis). The owners better start kissing his ass, because you know it’s a league controlled by the players.

Hate to be that guy that says "I knew it"  but I cant help but say I knew he was just throwing a tantrum with the whole "appease me now or else" BS.  Acting like a bored spouse who complains that you just don't pay enough attention to me anymore.

I would have had so much more respect for him if he stood his ground.   Now all of this for what? Just pointless BS.

Winning a championship the way Giannis did is infinitely more impressive than the super team bullshit. Hopefully young stars like Luka and Lamelo realize that. I personally think Giannis' single ring is more impressive than Lebron James' 4.

Why is there here? Are we that bored? Lol

ESPN's Adam Schefter adds that the deal will void the 2023 season from Rodgers' current contract and the franchise tag may not be used in future years.

Sounds like he wants to be a FA after this season.

Randall Cobb? He wants Randall Cobb? Isn’t that guy 70?
