"Draymond will take $95 million pay cut for his buddy LeBron James": NBA fans react to reports of Draymond Green's free agency plans

Image
  Before the start of free agency, Draymond Green made a shocking decision regarding his player option with the Golden State Warriors.  He opted to decline and become an unrestricted free agent this summer. As a multi-time champion and Defensive Player of the Year, Draymond Green should have a good market in free agency.  The former All-Star recently opened up on how he feels he is still a $100 million player in this league. Following this news, NBA fans began pouring in with their thoughts on Green's free agency.  As expected, a lot of the jokes were about the Warriors forward running off the be with close friend LeBron James on the LA Lakers. The two good friends were recently seen holidaying together in France.  Aside from the LeBron jokes, many critics chimed in with their thoughts on Green no longer being worth that much to any NBA team:   Despite what some fans think, there were others that still believe Green is an elite defensive talent and can help any team win a title:

The $3 billion sale of the Charlotte Hornets by Michael Jordan sets a record

Image
NBA Legend, Michael Jordan is considered by many as one of the greatest basketball players of all time.  And now, he could be involved in one of the most lucrative sales in Sports, as there are reports that he has sold his majority stake ownership of the NBA franchise, Charlotte Hornets.  The sale, which is still subject to approval by the NBA’s Board of Governors, is reportedly worth about $3 billion. Jordan is selling to a group led by Gabe Plotkin and Rick Schnall. Plotkin is a hedge fund founder and has been a minority owner in Hornets since 2019, while Schnall is a private equity firm president who owns a minority stake in the Atlanta Hawks since 2015.   The buying group also includes rapper J. Cole and country music artist Eric Church, both of whom are from North Carolina. Jordan intends to maintain his minority stake at the Hornets, but that would mean that there would be no black majority team owner in the 30-team NBA.   North Carolina native, Michael Jordan has been breaking

Michael Jordan will surpass lifetime Nike earnings in a single $3 billion deal

Image
After agreeing to sell his shares in the Charlotte Hornets for $3 billion, NBA legend Michael Jordan will earn a $2 billion profit, surpassing the $1.8 billion he has made with Nike over 40 years.  Jordan agreed to sell his majority stake in the team last Friday, ending a 13-year tenure as the team's owner. The sale is the seventh most-expensive sale price ever in sports franchise history, with six of the top seven deals happening within the last four years.   Details surrounding the sale confirm that Jordan will keep a minority stake in the team after the deal is approved, while reports have stated that the former owner will still have a say in who the team selects in the upcoming NBA Draft.   MJ is widely considered as the greatest player in NBA history. After his official departure, the NBA will no longer have any African-American majority owners. In 2010, Jordan bought the then-Charlotte Bobcats from BET co-founder and RLJ Companies founder Bob Johnson for $180 million.  Furth

The battle over prized possessions between the Thompson brothers has quickly become a hot topic of discussion among fans. It seems that shoes, particularly a coveted pair of Jordan x Travis Scott sneakers, have become the epicenter of this fun conversation.   In an interview with ESPN, the interviewer asked about the key items they were fighting for, “And look, I understand that you guys are having to divide

Brandon Miller Neglects Michael Jordan, LeBron James As He Reveals His NBA GOAT

Image
Alabama basketball product and projected top three NBA Draft pick Brandon Miller was recently asked if the LeBron James versus Michael Jordan GOAT debate is getting old.  Miller, who was answering questions at media day ahead of Thursday's NBA Draft, gave a surprising answer to the question to say the least, per Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson of Bally Sports.   “No, I actually don't think LeBron is the GOAT of basketball,” Miller said. “My GOAT of basketball is Paul George. I always grew up watching him.” George is a good player. He's an All-Star who's established himself as one of the better current players in the league.  No disrespect to George, but he certainly hasn't been involved in the GOAT conversation though. Nevertheless, Brandon Miller apparently “grew up watching” George, and clearly holds him in high regard.  Miller got roasted on social media for his take. This was expected, but every young athlete has a player they look up to. Regardless, Brandon Miller i

Lionel Messi took the world by storm when he first left the Spanish club Barcelona. He gave fans another shock when he decided to cross the Atlantic and join Inter Miami instead of renewing the contract with PSG.  After he weighed in his options, which must have included a return to Blaugrana or penning a more lucrative deal with Saudi pro clubs, he preferred a league that is still finding its feet.  More details about his new deal have emerged which has put several American sports stars on notice. The Argentine player, after collecting the coveted world cup trophy last year, has completed his soccer career. Further, he opted against a move to Saudi when Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante followed in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo.  Not only does Messi’s contract makes him the highest-paid player in MLS but also puts him ahead of other American greats. The forward’s unique deal with Inter Miami also has specific stipulations with sponsors, Apple, Adidas, and Fanatics.  He is expected

Longtime LeBron James Frenemy Declines Player Option, Enters Free Agency

Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green could have a new NBA home for the first time in his pro career.  Shams Charania of The Athletic reports that Green's agent Rich Paul of Klutch Sports has revealed that the 2017 Defensive Player of the Year, also a four-time All-Star and four-time champ with the Warriors, is declining his $27.5 million player option for 2023-24 to enter the unrestricted free agent fray on July 1st.   This move had been widely expected. ESPN's Marc J. Spears had hinted that Green would decline his option and explore another long-term deal even prior to Paul informing Charania of their intentions.   Woj adds that the Warriors are considered "motivated" to re-sign one of their most important vets, whose impact goes beyond his stats, while noting that Green could also explore sign-and-trade possibilities with other franchises.  Most of the teams with significant camp room aren't exactly contenders, so a sign-and-trade deal would make m

'When He Died, a Piece of Me Died.’ Michael Jordan Morns A Brother

Image
Michael Jordan, arguably the greatest basketball player of all-time, delivered one of the most raw and powerful speeches at Kobe Bryant’s public memorial on Monday.    He also provided some much-needed humor. While remembering his “little brother” Bryant, Jordan, who was fully crying before he even took the stage, couldn’t help but reference a now-classic Internet meme.   I’ll have to look at another crying meme (of myself) for years,” Jordan quipped, wiping away tears. The 20,000 mourners at Staples Center, all clearly familiar with the “Crying Jordan” meme, burst into laughter.   “I told my wife I wasn’t going to do this because I didn’t want to see (a new meme) for the next three or four years,” he continued. “That’s what Kobe Bryant does to me.”  Bryant was often compared to Jordan throughout his NBA career and regularly sought advice from the Chicago Bulls legend. “He used to call me, text me 11:30, 2:30, 3:00 in the morning,” Jordan recalled. “Talking about post-up moves, foot

Hall of Famer 'Shocked and Dismayed' At Scottie Pippen's Treatment of Michael Jordan

Image
Scottie Pippen’s grudge against Michael Jordan appeared to stem from how he felt he was treated in "The Last Dance" documentary that took a look into the creation of the Chicago Bulls’ dynasty and how it ended.  Late last month, Pippen piled on the Jordan criticism in a podcast interview when he said that the six-time NBA champion was a "horrible player" early in his career and that LeBron James has had a better statistical career than anyone who has ever played in the league.   Pippen also claimed that Jordan’s legacy did not really start until he came along. However, the barbs Pippen has unleashed on Jordan stunned Basketball Hall of Famer Bill Walton.   "I'm shocked and dismayed and those words are not strong enough to relate my feelings as the way that Scottie Pippen treats Michael Jordan," Walton said Friday on "Scoop B Radio." Walton added, "It was a remarkable privilege and honor to have that position and to witness the greatnes
