    Pacers team is good fun to watch, but I'm hoping OKC have enough maturity and some coaching to get them home.

    Sources: Buss family to sell Lakers, valued at $10B

    Sources: Buss family to sell Lakers, valued at $10B

    The Buss family is entering into an agreement to sell majority ownership of the Lakers to Mark Walter, who also owns the Dodgers, for a franchise valuation of approximately $10 billion, sources told ESPN.

    10Bn USD.

    'The Lakers can finally be run like a real business': Leaguewide reaction to the stunning sale

    'The Lakers can finally be run like a real business': Leaguewide reaction to the stunning sale

    The Lakers have spent decades lagging behind other NBA teams in ways known -- and not. This sale presents a massive opportunity for them to catch up -- and expedite their chase for title No. 18.

    The owner has built the Dodgers into a juggernaut. I expect he will spare no expense to achieve his aim to do the same with the Lakers

    Pacers come out with a defensive intensity in the second and third quarters, whilst getting across the board contributions in the scoring column. An almost perfect game from them.

    Beat the Thunder by double digits and your top scorer is off the bench for 20. Super teams are dead!

    Steven Adams might be getting a new teammate - Kevin Durant.

    I don't see it. Suns don't need another guard, let alone an inefficient guard like Green. Their 5 highest paid players are all shooting guards. None of them fit well next to each other.

    Brookes is a good role player, but doesn't move the needle for a team like this.

    10th pick is OK, but usually doesn't pan out to be anything much. And 5 2nd rounders is a bunch of fluff.

    Every pundit talking about KD being washed, yeah nah. He is still a top 15 player in this league. Plus pairing him with Sengun is going to be something.

    You'd think they are planning to try to do an OKC and turn a few of those pieces into more picks (or maybe players).

    That new owner group got what they fucking deserved.

    OKC on top in the 4th, Haliburton went down injured.

    @gt12 Hali’s achilles tighten the way it did and then give in was tough to watch.

    I hope it's not super serious.

    Understand him trying to play but it would be horrible if it fucks his shit up for next season.

    I think it’s a proper achilles so he’ll be out for a while.

    Can't upvote that.

    Thunder win by 10 or so.

    Good on them, great organization.

    Amazing, after failing to win with Westbrook/Durant/Harden, they rebuild through the draft bigger and better this time. Sam Presti is a very smart guy, and ownership were smart enough to trust the process

    @canefan built somewhat through the draft, given their best player came through the PG trade.

    What certainly helped (other than the luck that most teams need to win this stuff) is the culture side. Check your ego at the door and play a role.

    Hartenstein was one of the best offseason pick ups coming into this season. Love how he plays and just effort after effort. Obviously NY couldn’t hold him, but what they would’ve done to have him in their run.

    The East is going to be wide open

    • No Tatum
    • No Halliburton
    • Knicks TBA coach

    The champion will probably still emerge out of the West

    The scary thing is OKC I ready to make another run. They are loaded with draft picks which they could use to make a big trade. Or they could just run it back with the same core. Not sure about Denver. They will have to decide whether to reload around Joker. Minnesota will probably need to upgrade somehow. Under new ownership the Lakers will be a force, but I'm not sure they're going to make the leap next year, unless he wants to go way over the luxury tax. I think their improvements will be mainly in the front office and organisational. It remains to be seen if the acquisition of KD takes Houston to the next level
