Which ones??
Trying to put players in their place led to what is happening to a storied franchise like the Bulls till date(their problem started after dismantleing a 3peat team with their own hands)

Shamelessness runs in your blood vessels, go and bring posts of 1999 too.

You had to quote my post on Luiz, when he was 28yrs. Mumu.

Where was the Celtics loyalty when they traded Isaiah Thomas in a heartbeat. Where was the loyalty from the Raptors when they package off Derozan and waved him goodbye just to get what might end up being a one year rental. Lets not forget what the Clippers did to Blake
AD has given the Pelicans seven good years with him performing at all-nba level for 5 of those years. I'm glad he asked for a trade because his situation was becoming like that of the Big ticket in Minnesota, who wasted most of his prime with a team that had no plans.
Loyalty should be a two way street, if the owner is expecting it from a player then he should be showing it also to same player. Do you know what players of AD's caliber count as loyalty, putting him in a situation where he can win. this dude has the 3rd best career PER in NBA history behind only MJ and Lebron and in seven years he has only made it to the playoffs twice common on man.
If he was a spoiled brat like you are trying to insinuate staying at the pelicans would be the best move cause in new Orleans he has the chance to be the first $300 million players.
We call a business when the owner trades a player after making promises but when a player decides to take charge of his life we cry foul. BIG WUP

Three first round pick, Tatum, and a player here or there and I will trade Davis.

He already said he is not resigning. Don't play around till time gets close

Khanben:
If I was Magic, i would just tell the pelicans to just name their price and give them whatever they ask for at first time of asking. Kuzma, Lonzo, Ingram, Zubac, KCP, and one first round pick.

David luiz just needed a coach good in human relations, who would sit him down, tell him the quality he is made of and what is needed to improve on to make him the best defender in the world. Though i knew luiz would become good, but not this soon.

The next time Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri is asked about Eden Hazard he should avoid saying anything negative, whatever he actually thinks.
It is very, very risky to criticise your players in public like Sarri did this week - even if you know you are right.
Sometimes as a manager you really want to be open about what you are thinking, good or bad, and for the right reasons. You are hoping your players respond in the right way.
But if that openness is misinterpreted by them, then you have more problems.
What you really don't want is a situation that plays out in the media like the one we have just seen at Chelsea. The only people who benefit when that happens are the newspapers.
Sarri spoke about Hazard, calling him an individual and not a leader, and then Hazard responded by basically saying he does not care what his manager thinks, he is still going to do his thing - so shut up!
That is already a sign of what can go wrong when you call your players out.
I have never really felt like Sarri's job was at risk through all this but, if they keep talking about each other then, as a manager, he is in trouble.
That has nothing to do with the power of the player involved, either.
Yes, Hazard is Chelsea's best player, and they rely on him too much, but it is the whole dressing room that Sarri has to handle here and keep happy, not just an individual.
'Sarri should talk to his players, not about them'

Elnino4ladies:
Emenalo sacked LMFAO

nihilistjnr:
David Luiz is an imbecilë

chic2pimp:
I'm not completely writing Him off. He just wouldn't develop into the Superstar athlete we thought He would. I have little hope He'll get much better than He currently is. The Lad seems to have plateued. He is neither progressing nor regressing. It's a sad sight. Nevermind Number one option, If Wiggins is your Number two option, you have little to no chance of winning a chip.

Khanben:
All-star starters list is just whew, i want to complain about AD not making it in the west, but every other person there deserved it.
The next step for the league after elimination east and west from the game proper, is to just make the selections itself about, the best 24 players of the first half of the league irrespective of conference.

birdman:
your senseof justice mehn

they did move the refs out of NO that night

Khanben:
Wiggins just simply lacks effort and the will to put it all on the line game after game

chic2pimp:
40 my G. Happy Birthday Big Man. Many more years of a prosperous and Long life fall on you.

Happy birthday a40, God will repair all that is faulty in your life, you won't be a fool at 40 in Jesus name.

Happy birthday A40, more wins...

Happy birthday, A40. Prosperity and many more years to come.

chic2pimp:
Embiid would have probably gone number one if He did not injure himself. Also you really can't blame Minnesota's front office for picking Wiggins. They couldn't have forseen Andrew's total lack of commitment to improving himself as a player. We are talking about a Guy that had a ridiculously high Ceiling. One of the greatest two way players of all time calibre talent. Unfortunately His is a case of unfulfiled potential.

If only He had the work ethic or the drive of an Embiid or Adetokunbo.

You just called the bulls a lottery team? Decale will start crying now

Cardiff new striker Emmanuel Salah just died in a plane crash on his way to England to start his Cardiff career.
