I've got to watch the Speeches but I saw the Wade one and it had me in tears the praise and respect he gave to Allen Iverson.

Class act by Wade showing by showing AI some love.

I loved it when he and Shaq won the franchise's first NBA championship in 2006, by beating the Mavericks 4-2 in the series.

BUCKS GETTING LILLARD

:mark: :mark: :mark: :mark: :mark:

Fuck Yeah! :cool:

Not a fuck yeah it damn near guarantees them a NBA Finals appearance I feel. You might as well Crown them now but it's interesting what the Bucks had to give up for Dame. I already had a who cares attitude for my Sixers this Year due to Harden and now Dame in the East with the Greek Freak yup I'm going into a Cave and waiting for next Offseason when Embiid asks out of Phila and the Team is blown up.

I feel bad for Jrue through going to the Blazers a Franchise who are going no where anytime soon he might be a major trade chip for the Blazers this upcoming Season if he doesn't want out from the jump.

Dame and Giannis might be one of the best 1-2 combos in the league.

It’s gonna come down to the Bucks and Boston in the East, but I think this move gives them the edge.

There’s talk about potentially flipping him to Miami

Dame being traded to the Bucks to side with Giannis makes the team instant playoff contenders (if it goes right). Plus, Dame got his wish to get out of Portland because he seemed unhappy there and wanting to go somewhere to get a fresh new start. I'm all for him making the decision to go elsewhere and be with a team that can compete beyond the regular season.

Or Phila apparently. Maybe that trade where Harden goes to the Clippers could still happen in a Three Way Trade with Portland, LA, and Phila.

If I'm Morey I'm calling up Miami and asking for what the Heat would want for Butler because he's aging and their Core Team has been together as long as the Sixers both Teams need to change it up I feel.
