Basically had a survey with 20 top NBA agents on their general thoughts on the bubble, how things stand in the league and how they're heading.

Also had a vote on a few questions, I'll post them along with who got the most votes.

1. The player or coach who you changed your opinion on the most in the bubble (good or bad):

Jimmy and Murray tied for the most votes with AD, Monty, Spo, Malone and Bam getting votes after.


Bud, Doc and Westbrook all got negative votes.

Highest profile player you expect to change teams:

CP and Beal were clear 1-2 followed by Dipo, Blake and Kawhi actually . Apparently there's whispers the Clips might break it up.

Also mentioned that DeRozan doesn't like SA and if he were to leave Detroit would be the first option with Casey there.

Which franchise needs a major move this offseason?

Philly got the most votes with everyone agreeing its a make or break year for them followed by the Bucks. 6 way tie for the rest between Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Portland, Denver and Minny.

Can Milwaukee keep Giannis Antetokounmpo, and where is he starting in the 2021-22 season?

18 say yes he stays and 1 thinks he gets shopped. The consensus seems that he doesn't seem like a team hopper and seems built like an old school 1 team player that'll give Milwaukee the chance to build around him.

Who is the most intriguing 2020 NBA Draft prospect?

Melo with the most votes followed by Hayes, Toppin, Vassell and Williams

What’s the move for Golden State with the second overall pick

Majority say they trade it with 6 saying keep it for Wiseman

Among general managers or front-office leaders, who do you:

Trust the most?

Masai, Weltman and Connelly all tied for 1st with Masai apparently being the most transparent team president/GM in the league

Trust the least?

Morey with the most votes followed by Pelinka, Ainge, Perry, Knicks and Mavs

Think is the smartest?

Presti first followed by Elisburg from the Heat and Masai, Riley and Morey

Think is the best talent evaluator?

Riley and Masai 1-2 followed by Presti, Ainge, Connelly and Elisburg

Think is a future front-office leader to watch?

Trajan Langdon from the Pels followed by Dunleavy Jr from the Dubs, Simon from the Heat and Bobby Webster from the Raps

You get to hire any GM. Who?

Masai and Riley 1-2 again followed by Meyers,Connelly and Pelinka

Considering the sources, I think the idea of the Clippers breaking it up is maybe something some agents are trying to speak into existence

Yep, unfortunately his daughter died.

That's why he said he already lost one child when he had that monologue on police brutality a few months ago.

 

[atlsfinest]

i remember that "fight"
folks were talmbout bron was more concerened with cp than his teammates

speaking of bronny, someone said he was grounded and missed his scheduled video game event
bron not having any of it now that he is home

I remember all that criticism. LeBron is the most criticized and picked apart athlete ever. Just a couple of months before that people were criticizing him for dunking at his son's game

Wait, are they still doing the bubble for the sorry teams + the Warriors in the fall?

The teams are in their own bubbles, doing workouts and scrimmages yes.

gotta be voluntary workouts right?

?

Voluntary from what I've read. No one is blaming the impending free agents for skipping, but I think it's expected for young players to check in.

Jesus would ya'll give it a rest already , When your the face of the NBA & one of the bigger stars in the world your every move is going to get criticized,

People til this day still speculate that Mike's gambling addiction got HIS FATHER KILLED, Kobe came off a threepeat & people questioned if he played winning ball or if he was a good teammate.

i'm surprised ****** ain't link Lebron to the start of humanity yet

I thought they were actually about to play games I must've been confused. Practices and workouts make much more sense.
