Kawhi steps away from the men's Olympic team.

Got it. You're a LeBron mind-reader.

Lawdog makes a good point and is sharing basic common sense.  It would behoove you to extricate yourself from la-la-land and stop attacking him.

Man if this isn't just ironic nonsense.

Thanks, but no need to step in Muggs. It's just posters (me included) offering their points of view. I don't think being called a mind-reader is that big of an insult.

I'll take The Easiest Sports Predictions for $800, Ken.

Bronny went off tonight against the Heat SL team.  He was a +8.  ESPN showed  his highlights.

USA/Canada on FS1.

Can I get a five-point plan for escaping la-la-land?

USA only up 4 on Canada and missing alley oops

Unmitigated disaster per Muggs

He's gonna have a pretty fascinating and complicated legacy when he's done. 

Since he won the title in Toronto, he's only made 1 All-NBA first team and only played more than 55 games once. Never made it past the conference semis and signed a couple massive contracts.

Clear best player of his generation after Lebron, Steph, and KD for me but just a strange back half of his career.

Just use your brain Pakuni in lieu of being hoodwinked by media and outside forces.

He can't stay healthy.

They need to FOCUS in games going forward.

Im thinking team bonding clubbing some seals. Like one of those anger smash rooms, but strictly seals.

Leave our tremendous marine mammals alone..   We have the talent to win every game by 30+ points.

His knee exploded a long time ago I guess

[CreightonWarrior]

He never truly recovered from his laugh getting exposed.

[Dish]

That's a heck of a solid Brunson did for the Knicks.

[MU82]

He's still getting $$$$ that will give him and his descendants generational wealth, and he'll be in line for a truly massive next contract ... but he comes out of this with everyone praising him for being a wonderful, team-first human being who made a gargantuan personal sacrifice. Plus, he gives the Knicks a better chance to build a championship-caliber team.

It so easy for pretty much everyone to root for an athlete like that.

[MuggsyB]

Bronny with some rough stats yesterday.  But I assume he's being touted as a lock down defender.  I think he has a long way to go from the little I've seen. 

[Tyler COLEk]

Bronny is nowhere near good enough to meaningfully contribute this season. And he probably never will be.

[tower912]

Bronny is there because of his dad.   An all time legend in the GOAT conversation (not saying he is. I don't think that question is ever answerable.  Any conversation that omits him is incomplete) has decided he wants to make history and play with his son.  It does no harm to anyone else and will make history.   R-E-L-A-X

[The Sultan]

Right. No one here expects anything of him.
