Dennis Schroder reportedly turned down a four-year, $84 million contract extension from the Lakers back in March. Dennis Schröder was with the Los Angeles Lakers for only one year, but the team tried to lock him down for an additional four years at the end of last season, reportedly offering to pay him $84 million. The point guard ultimately decided to decline the offer and test his price on the free agency market, which did not work out in his favor. As you may know, Schröder ended up signing a one-year deal with the Boston Celtics, worth $5.9 million.

EP 35--Dennis Schroder took a major L this summer, WHAT!!!

Lillard and Beal still likely have both of their feet in Portland and Washington, respectively. As for Ben Simmons, he probably already has his bags packed and is just raring to get out of Philadelphia. Philly likely still wants to fix the situation, but the 3-time All-Star probably doesn’t want anything to do with that. The Sixers-Simmons relationship has reportedly gone sour and it has apparently reached the point of no return.

With that, Philly has reportedly tried to shop Simmons. However, their asking price is a little too high for teams interested in landing former no. 1 overall pick. In addition, Simmons’ reportedly prefers to go to one of the “California teams.” This sparked rumors of the Warriors making a push for the 25-year old stud.

However, Dubs fans are concerned with Simmons’ fit, especially alongside a non-scoring threat in Draymond Green. Simmons and Green offer the same skillset, with their playmaking ability and elite and versatile defense. Many feel like they would overlap and their presence on the floor together would limit the space for Stephen Curry to operate and make his magic. Furthermore, Simmons’ inability and unwillingness to shoot continues to be one of the knocks of his game and his lack of development on that aspect has been quite a major concern.

EP 36--Ben Simmons Wants Out Of Philly, Sixers Shopping Ben

One day after Kyrie issued a carefully-worded statement that stopped short of the words “I’m sorry” in relation to a link he posted to an antisemitic film, Brooklyn Nets superstar Kyrie Irving was asked at practice today whether he holds any antisemitic views.

“Again, I’m going to repeat. I don’t know how the label becomes justified because you guys ask me the same questions over and over again,” Irving said. “But this is not going to turn into a spin-around cycle — questions upon questions.

“I told you guys how I felt. I respect all walks of life and embrace all walks of life. That’s where I sit…I cannot be antisemitic if I know where I come from.”

Kyrie Irving Cant Be Anti-Semitic If He Knows Where He Came From, What!?

The Phoenix Suns have acquired forwards Kevin Durant and T.J. Warren from the Brooklyn Nets in a four-team trade with the Milwaukee Bucks and Indiana Pacers. Brooklyn received forwards Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, multiple first-round picks (2023, 2025, 2027 and 2029) and a first-round pick swap in 2028 from Phoenix, as well as second-round picks from Milwaukee, in the exchange.

As part of the deal, veteran forward Jae Crowder heads to the Bucks, with Indiana also netting second-round picks while taking on players into its cap space.

The 34-year-old Durant is still playing at an elite level, averaging nearly 30 points per game this season. Durant and the Suns were linked to trade rumors over the past summer, but nothing materialized until Wednesday.

The trade comes just hours after new Suns majority owner Mat Ishbia was introduced in Phoenix. The self-described basketball nut, who was a walk-on at Michigan State under Tom Izzo, didn’t waste any time shaking up the NBA.

The move from Brooklyn to Phoenix was a collaborative one between Durant’s camp and the Nets. The move to the Suns was something both sides were interested in pursuing and he and the Nets left on good terms.
