        He'll be back, this could be a ploy to get on a championship caliber team.

            That franchise is a mess.
            They got Simmons wrong, George is already a bust, he's done shit in ten games, Doc ruined Embid...
            They're better off with 18 minutes from Drummond a game.

            Maxey is the only thing right about Philly and if I were him, I'd flee as soon as he's a FA.

                  He was always an injury waiting to happen. Bye.... Got Sam Bowie?

                  Lakers dumped AD for probably the same reason looking forward. Smart move for a first for the Lakers IMO...

                          nba teams need to fire there trainers. Too old school and know nothing about nutrition, supplements or how to correctly rehab

                              Look how hard you got played. Wow, you're dumb. Some rando with a Twitter handle "Charmin in Narnia" shit posts some nonsense about a star player and you swallow it hook, line, and sinker. I always knew you were a swallower.

                                The real story was he was on his way up to the podium to announce his retirement but injured his knee. He will be out 5 to 6 months before trying again.

                                      This is fake news, and it is not even April 1 for Pete's Sake !!

                                        Yeah, you're absolutely correct.
                                        Truth be told I thought I created this in the saloon.
                                        (What can I say, I'm only flesh and blood)
                                        All good.

                                          to ALL in this thread.

                                          his name is SHAMS not SHARMS.

                                          the account that says SHARMS is fake. only 400 followers. come on now. wake up. this dude replaced WOJ. he is so legit.

                                          this is the real one: 2.9M followers

                                              Truth be told I knew it was an 'Onion' type lampoon all along, my mistake was treating that as a PT thread.
                                              It's an easy error to make when multi-tasking.

                                              I've inadvertently 'stickied' a thread while attempting to sLink it.

                                              Trust me, I'm good for a couple of brain farts a week.

                                                Then I'm not seeing how posting it in PT is a mistake. If the goal is to bait the hook and get bites then PT is where you'd cast the line, not small waters like the Saloon, because if it were genuine news it's certainly too big of a story for the Saloon. Gotta be all in or not at all.

If the goal is to bait the hook and get bites then PT is where you'd cast the line, not small waters like the Saloon, because if it were genuine news it's certainly too big of a story for the Saloon. Gotta be all in or not at all.

                                                      Not sure what makes you call it circular logic. I don't know if his spidey senses are right or wrong, but the logic all goes in the same linear direction
