The pants matched the shirt...he just got out of bed.[emoji1]
1) Why would you wear a blue shirt with stars to a Cowboys game... if you're a fan of the opposing team?
2) Why do you own this shirt, Kevin?
Am i the only one who finds it to be a bit of a stretch to have westbrook ranked that high?
I'm a bit surprised that Davis is already ranked that high.
No I don think so, they all will give him the excuse of playing in the west. Its crazy tho the amount of talent they have around him compared to Kyrie's first couple years.Off topic, but it'll be interesting to see what happens to his ranking in the (likely, IMO) case that the Pelicans miss the playoffs again this year. Will fans and pundits turn on him like they turned on Kyrie?
I doubt his defense will be nearly as bad and playing out West it wouldn't lead to the same amount of scrutinyOff topic, but it'll be interesting to see what happens to his ranking in the (likely, IMO) case that the Pelicans miss the playoffs again this year.

I've wondered if he had been in talks with LeBron before July about the possibility of teaming up in Cleveland, perhaps not necessarily committed to the idea, but open to it. One can read whatever one wants into it, with how it was phrased, and which words were chosen.
I don't doubt that Love and LeBron talked sometime after the Cavs won the lottery. That moment pretty much changed everything. Well, that along with the Heat getting blown out of the Finals.
Things certainly changed when the Cavs won the lottery, and there may have been some discussions between players, but I don't think that there was a preexisting agreement in place before 7-1-2014.
Consider:
1) If there were preexisting plans, winning the lottery may have made things more complicated, since trading Vonleh + parts doesn't create as many second guesses as trading a healthy Embiid or Wiggins
2) Lebron wasn't opting out if the Heat won and the Heat still looked like Championship favorites in May. I doubt he was colluding for an exit before game 4.
3) Cavs were not going to sell the farm for Love if they didn't think they could keep him. While Love might have said some nice things in the media so that he didn't look like a jerk, keeping Love in 2015 would have been tough without LBJ.
