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)

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"

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)

What I’m saying is I think this kid can be that good.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Richard Jefferson on Alfonso Ribeiro comments about LeBron James ruined the NBA: “I’m going to teach you some basketball. People forget that Shaq left Penny, left Orlando, and went to LA. Oh, you’re going to leave the small market to go to the big market. And then all of a sudden, then Phil Jackson magically appears, like Phil Jackson jump ship and was like, you know what? I’m going to jump over here because I see these studs. So now they win three championships. And so for people to say that it was chasing rings and LeBron left the original team that he was drafted, people forget that Grant Hill and T-Mac teamed up in Orlando. And if not for Doc Rivers fu*king it up, Tim Duncan Would have been there. It’s true. Tim Duncan is like my big brother love him to death. I remember asking him a question, like he goes once Doc Rivers literally said, “Hey, look we’re going to get it done with or without you.” And Tim was like, “Oh, excuse me.” The fact that Tim Duncan, Grant Hill, and T-Mac, and if not for Grant Hill’s ankle injury, Grant Hill was a top five player in the league when he left Detroit to go to Orlando. And T-Mac left Toronto. They were literally doing a big 3 in 2003.” (Via Road Trippin’ Show)

DeMarcus Cousins on people discrediting the Bubble Championship: “I had this discussion the other day, it’s just like, damn. You know what I’m saying? Like, when the average person goes to work, you know what I’m saying? You have a sick day, whatever bad day, whatever the case may be. Y’all went to work during the pandemic, too. Those days still counted for you. So, they had to play a championship in the middle of a pandemic and it doesn’t count for him. Like, so what’s the damn difference? You know what I mean? I mean, y’all got paid at your job. And I know it’s comparing oranges and apples, whatever the case may be, but the foundation of it is regardless this is something that happened that nobody had control over. So to discredit him for that, it just doesn’t make sense.” (Via Road Trippin’ Show)

DeMarcus Cousins on why Tim Duncan was the hardest player for him to guard in the NBA: “It was either rookie or my second year. And you know you play Timmy enough you kind of pick up on the sh*t that he does. Tim got some tricks to his game that people don’t know about. So one thing he was infamous for is when he’s guarding the big he pulls you down on one shoulder so he can get up and block it. That sh*t used to frustrate. I’m like, “Yo, this a foul.” Yo, like I can’t jump if he’s pulling me down on one shoulder and blocking me. I’m like, “That’s a foul, bro.” So it got to the point it go so frustrating. I’m like, “You know what? I’m about to manhandle Tim.” Like, I just started going through his chest. So, I got maybe two, three buckets in a row. I get to popping it like, “Yeah Tim, you too little out here.” So, you know Tim ain’t really got too much to say. So, I think Tim ran off about a good 14 to 16 like just straight. No extra moves. Back down jump hook, turnaround jumper, face up jab off the bank. I’m just like, god damn. So, by the end of it, you know, he just say good game.” (Via Road Trippin’ Show)

Kendrick Perkins tells Rich Paul the Timberwolves are the best fit for LeBron James: “If you’re talking about plugging him into a space where he can go now and compete for a title. Now, I’m not saying he’s going to be happy but Anthony Edwards do bring you joy, okay? LaMelo Ball will bring him joy. But if you look at what they missing, all they missing is that “quote, unquote that small forward to fill that part of Julius Randle that takes them over the hump.” (Via Game Over)

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)

Lou Williams tells story of when he found out the Clippers were trading his rookie SGA, for Paul George: “In our game you want your young star to be coachable, a worker, one of the guys, the toughest, smartest, SGA was all of those things. When that trade happened for Paul George, I swear to god.. when he called me, the first thing I asked him was ‘was Shai in the trade?’ That was the first thing I asked him. Because that’s how much I believed in him as a rookie. He was one of the first rookies that I was one the team with that I said ‘hey that boy going to be a star.’” (Via The Underground Lounge)

Paul Pierce says if LeBron James goes to the Sixers it takes him totally out the GOAT debate: “No player that we consider that’s been in a GOAT debate has been a fourth option. No, seriously. Like Jordan, even when he went to the Wizards, was still the first option. Kareem was second option. Worh Magic. Like when we start having these debates about the GOAT and we say, we’ll, you know, Philly won a championship, but he was fourth option. He has five rings but fourth and fifth option, like so it’ll do something to his legacy. I really believe that.” (Via No Fouls Given)

DeMarcus Cousins says he doesn’t like the way LeBron James was treated LA: “And you know we in this era now that you can’t really, you know speak on his behalf or it’s considered glazing or we paid by Klutch all this goofy sh*t but for the most part, you know, I grow up in the era of watching Bron like create the blueprint for the next guys coming up. So, I think he’s a legend in this game hands down. I just, I don’t know we kind of getting to a point where you know when it comes to our legends in the game, I don’t think they going out gracefully the way they should. I mean, from Melo to how CP was handled. We kind of watching how the Lakers just kind of act like Bron ain’t LeBron, like, you know what I mean? So, Kevin Durant, like, you know? So, I want him to go whenever he’s going to be appreciated and where he’s going to get the flowers he deserves.” (Via Road Trippin’ Show)

Shams says Kawhi Leonard has denied any participation in his investigation and lays out the worse case scenario: “The absolute worst is Kawhi Leonard’s contract being voided, or him being suspended for a significant period of time. Whether it’s 40/20 games or entire season.. it all comes down to the evidence and what’s found in the investigation. Is there proof Kawhi Leonard had participation in this? To my knowledge he has denied all of that.” (Via Shump Street Podcast)

Draymond Green says the problem he has with Stephen A is he disrespects NBA players as if he is a player himself: “You very much so right up there at the top… A lot of players having a relationship with you, were facts. Until you started to disrespect players as if you were a player. There’s a fine line… Stephen A the problem I have is you get upset about the very thing that you do. You get so upset and bent out of shape about the very same thing that you do.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)
