    Bronny will play 1 year at The Ohio State, get drafted by Vegas, and play with dad in Sin City, where LeBron retires after leading the Vegas Slots to the title in Year 2.

    Something about the NBA wanting to imminently announce expansion to Seattle and Las Vegas.

    Doesn’t the NBA want LeBron and Company to own a franchise? He said he always wanted to be a mogul.

    Ah, yeah. Simmons has mentioned that there is a lot of pressure to do this sooner rather than later, because the owners took a hit during the pandemic, which the expansion fees would replace.

    Anybody else feel like the Golden Knights are going to be hurting for revenue in a few years? Screwed up cap situation and more competition than that market can support. And Vegas was made to be a basketball town.

    The NBA has been oddly reluctant to expand. Seattle and Vegas seems like an absolute no-brainer to me.

    Possibly... but when I visited Vegas a few years ago the Golden Knights were EVERYWHERE. I was really surprised at how well they caught on. That can certainly diminish if the team is losing and a new NBA team shows up, but they built up a hell of a lot of support early on.

    Sarver benched for a year for, among other things, being the "Why can't I say the N word?" guy.

    Though I loved the little thing about the Warriors in the report, "Sarver complained to a Black Suns coach that a Warriors player, who is Black and whose name rhymes with Shraymond Queen, had been allowed to say the N word during the game without receiving a technical foul."

    Emphasis mine.

    Good. Fuck him. I wish he would sell the damn team.

    Heavy Papa John vibe from Sarver's behavior.
