I was stunned when Leonard got that extension

[@HorsemanExtreme]

I was more stunned when they gave Harden all of that money.

[@comfortasante5918]

My thing is y’all had the primaries to think about who should run in 2020!!! Y’all knew BOTH candidates were old and I will say this once again no candidate should be asked about their age of the people voted for them. We all need to do better during primaries my thing is atleast Biden do have Kamala to back him up if anything were to happen and let’s be real that’s what people are worried about they don’t want Kamala to take over.

Charlie Mack, Philadelphia legend definitely gave Stephen A Smith an attitude adjustment about how he speaks upon Will Smith.

[@cwavygaming6615]

California taxes. He feels disrespected the way they gave Draymond 100m and told him he’s going to take half of that. GS was basically saying you’re the least valuable of the big 3 so here you go. Makes sense for him To depart he doesn’t feel respected there anymore

[@rkgsd]

BET had Will Smith on the show like nothing happened. What he did was unforgivable. Evidently Will Smith has been forgiven just like Chris Brown was forgiven for giving Rihanna a black eye. Ya'll some hypocrites! Granted the BET network is no longer black owned which is another story.

Might need to pump the brakes on Reese. When you throw up more bricks than a bricklayer and catch your own rebounds...that is juicing this record.

[@nyseat21]

@@furiousstyles81 have you seen this woman shoot. She can't hit the broadside of a super Walmart.

[@dylanloveskellytaylor4774]

@@furiousstyles81sorry but you only have to go over the play by play of this game and it states that her rebounds were her own offensive rebounds off her own missed shots which made it look intentional especially when she was at 9 points and at the last minutes of the game Naphessa intentionally fouled her to also give her that last point to get her the double double to give her that record. Other then that I am one that will state that Angel isn’t always catching her own rebounds and it’s normally an average of about 2% of all her rebounds per game but for this game and this record it doesn’t look good and for me it’s disrespectful to Candace to pad your own stats and literally having the opposing team helping you out to get those stats all so you can get that record because of the ROTY debate and wanting Angel to win over Caitlin. Sorry but it shouldn’t come at the expense of a record that was hard fought and earned by a goat of the game and have her record destroyed in this way…that’s way I’m not happy about it, Candace doesn’t deserve this especially it’s not like she can come back and change it.

Respectfully wtf you talking about? Embiid should have all the pressure, he’s 30 years old never been to a conference final, always has a great team around him, always injured (but we are hoping that changes with age???) and is regarded as a top 5 or even top 3 player in the NBA… ALL the pressure is on Embiid to do something in the postseason with this Big 3 and actually earn recognition not be given it for having great stats in the regular season

I disagree I think Paul George does not deserve that contract or James Harden they both are Underachievers never made it to a Conference Final or won NBA championship their careers are almost over. These owners are overpaying everybody that have not even proven nothing six men washed up basketball players that are always hurt. But I'm happy for Klay Thompson I hope he can get that three-point shot back and help Dallas. I feel sorry for Steph Curry he has no help they let him down.
