Brian Windhorst on Charles Barkley comments saying LeBron James stacks every team he goes to: “Where does Charles and the legends want LeBron to go? Do they want him to go to the G League? Because if he went to Cleveland is that team stacked? Is Miami with Bam Adebayo and Giannis Antetokounmpo is that team stacked? Jokic and Jamal Murray is that team stacked? Ant Edwards, Rudy Gobert I don’t know he left Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves is that not? I don’t understand the premise of the complaint.”

Rich Paul believes LeBron James beating the Rockets last year without Luka is what led him not to retire 😳 “That series in my opinion, convinced him to keep playing. I truly believe that. I think if they somehow got swept or lose 4-1 in that series, it could be different. I think that gave us another ride.” (Via Game Over)

Charles Barkley says LeBron James always stacks his team after going to Philly: “The number one knock on LeBron for older guys like myself has always been, “Yo, man, you always stacking your team.” He stacked in Miami. He stacked in Cleveland. He stacked in LA. Now he’s stacking it in Philly. So that to me, I’m going to still have the same criticism I’ve always had.” (Via Stephen A Smith)

KCP on reuniting with LeBron James in Philly: “I just want to get back to playing meaningful basketball. Like playing for something like you saying for another championship. I say that area again, that spotlight, you know, the playoffs, man. Ain’t nothing like it, man. And in the competition like the competitiveness just I want it. I still got a lot of years in me that I can still go.” (Via The Dawg Talk Podcast)

Allen Iverson on the GOAT debate between Michael Jordan and LeBron James: “The way I look at it, is Michael is always going to be the GOAT to me, you know what I mean? And LeBron to me, I feel like if you go in the dictionary and you look up basketball player, you’ll see LeBron James, you know what I mean? And you know the whole GOAT thing to me I think a lot of times it gets out of hand because I think a lot of times people will take away from one player what they did you know what I mean? To boost up the other player. You know what I mean? That’s not what you do. I feel like a lot of times you know people get caught up in the whole GOAT thing but your GOAT is your GOAT. You have your opinion to name anyone your GOAT if you want to. You know what I mean? You’re not wrong by saying anyone’s your GOAT. I had my fans say I’m the GOAT all the time. I don’t agree with them because I think it’s Mike.” (Via Stephen A Smith)

Brian Windhorst says the whole thing about LeBron James joining the Sixers is outrageous: “This a one-off moment in the history of the league we’ve never seen a player ever say the following things, I don’t care about money, I don’t care about my family. He doesn’t even that much apparently care about the city because he doesn’t seem like he’s going to he living in Philadelphia full time seems like he’s going to live at least part time in New York. So, this a I don’t even know how to frame it because really truly unbelievable.”

Draymond Green on Yaxel Lendeborg pitch to LeBron James to join Golden State: “Is the pitch too weak or too strong? I don’t know. I think the pitch is pointless, you know. But it’s fine. Training camp is coming soon enough and you know, got to rain the rookie in a little bit. You know, teach him a few things. Training camp’s coming soon enough. Yeah, it’s training camp will be here pretty soon. And I think you all know why I’m hitting at training camp. And yeah, it’ll get here soon enough, Yax. Enjoy all your media.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Rich Paul on why LeBron didn’t choose the Spurs: “It’s similar to the Knicks these are two teams that finished last two teams in the season. Spurs were the runner up. And when you have a guy like Wemby you have to respect his growth, his position on the Spurs. It’s not easy LeBron James shows up it just doesn’t matter who you are.” (Via Game Over)

LeBron James on Tyrese Maxey: “I’ve worked out and trained with him over the last few summers. Every morning 5:00 a.m. were in the gym, 5:30, whatever in the gym and you just see like his dedication. Shows up on time, on target every single day. A guy who just loves the game and has taken full advantage of the opportunity in Philly, you know, and you know, I love the kid.” (Via Mind the Game)

Bill Simmons thinks there’s a chance the Sixers could be the 2012 Lakers: “I think this has the most variables every which way. There’s 2012 Lakers potential where this looks awesome on paper but you have LeBron who’s 41, god only knows when he’s going to break down. Embiid never plays. Jaylen Brown on a new team trying to fit his way. There’s an unhappy version of this too.” (Via Bill Simmons)

Jayson Tatum on Jaylen Brown getting traded: "To be transparent, it's weird.... You understand throughout the course of your career that the NBA is a business and people change teams... but it doesn't make it any easier. It's still a human element of it.. But it's also a side you have to welcome our new teammates"

Draymond Green says when you look at the biggest losers in the Sixers situation, it’s arguably V. J. Edgecombe: “If I’m V. J. Edgecombe’s agent, I’m not sure I’m happy with the summer that the 76ers have had. If I’m just V. J. Edgecombe agent, because this could affect a lot for V. J. Edgecombe. Like you go from being sometimes the second option when Embiid was out to sometimes being the fifth option. It’s a big, big difference. I don’t know if y’all understand like how big of a difference that is.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Danny Green says this move for LeBron James doesn’t add to his legacy: “His legacy is where it’s at. You getting a championship as the third or fourth option that does not be like, “Oh you’re the GOAT now.” Like Tyrese Maxey and Jaylen Brown are the best players on that team then it’s Joel Embiid, then it’s LeBron James you are know the fourth option.” (Via Inside The Green Room)

Iman Shumpert on where LeBron James should go: “If this is about a ring, go to Philly. If this is about selling tickets Miami. If this about ended your career the way it should go, go to Cleveland. Just don’t go to Cleveland trying to be happy about a win because you not going to win there. You’re not going to be happy. This is about legacy, the return tour, this is not about winning don’t you dare go over there think it’s rolling with the winners. I don’t know what’s up with them during the playoffs, don’t do it. I’ve been on a team with LeBron when he was frustrated and he felt like he got too much going on. He going to start shipping sh*t out of there, man.” (Via Shump Street Podcast)

Draymond Green on people saying the Jaylen Brown trade was a even swap: “No disrespect to Paul George, but this isn’t an even swap. I got a lot of love for PG. but like myself, PG is 36 years old. Not like myself. I’m going into year 15. I think PG is going into year 17. And Jaylen Brown, not even 30 years old. He’s 29 years old and he’s going into year 11. So, and by the way, he won finals MVP two years ago. I think he just made All-NBA second team this year. Was arguably controversially possibly could have been a first team performer, but the votes are what they are. So it’s not an even swap. Like when you’re talking just player for player, it’s not.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Anthony Edwards on Wemby getting ejected 💀 “That n***a is like 8’5 when he spread out. The rim ain’t nothing but 10 feet! You got to put that b*tch so high above the rim. He’s like a statue. It’s so hard to beat them when he’s on the floor just because of his defense. I was so happy that n***a got kicked out. I hope they suspend him. Imma email the ass right now!” (Via

Grant Hill on Jaylen Brown not being on the USA team: “When I announced then team, there were certain guys that I called before Woj and Shams broke it. And I called like Lillard, I called Jimmy Butler, I tried to call everybody because you never know when they’re going to break it. And you want to give guys the respect to hear it from me. I called Jaylen. We had a great conversation. Unbelievable conversation. And so something got lost there. And the implication that like a shoe company like to me that, look you guys can criticize my leadership. You can criticize the ability to put together a roster. When you’re in a role that I’m in, you open yourself up to criticism and I accept that. But to imply that like a shoe company told me what to do. Now you questioning my character, and that was the things that was weird.” (Via Road Trippin’ Show)

Anthony Edwards explains why he dapped up the Spurs with 8 minutes left: “Yeah it’s 8 minutes but we not going back in the game. When you win a playoff series everybody is celebrating at the end of the game. They’ll be smiling while I’m pissed off. I was like ‘let me go ahead and congratulate these boys because I’m not going to be laughing with y’all after you whooped my ass.’ I didn’t want to go dal them n***** up at all. But then what would they have said About me? That’s why I’m me and y’all are whoever y’all are.” (Via
