Lonzo Ball will undergo a third surgery on his left knee that is expected to cost him most, if not all, of the 2023-24 season

Doug Gottlieb? This dude probably used the Gatorade mixer as a source.

to add insult to injury, signing him cost us a 2nd round pick in a draft where we have ZERO picks because they got caught tampering

Not only that. As a result of not having a 2nd Round pick last night, they had to trade multiple future 2nd Rounders to get into the draft tonight.

So really, that Lonzo signing cost them multiple 2nds

JESUS, I didn't realize the cost of getting into this year's draft was multiple second rounders. I was hoping they would have bought one for cash considerations like how garpax used to regularly sell our 2nd rounders.

Who he been going to, the Kwame Brown of knee doctors?!

I have no dog in this fight but Doug Gottlieb is not someone I would be looking at as a trustworthy source

I wouldn't mind if Doug Gottlieb, Colin Cowherd, and Clay Travis were simply banned from the site.

Already ruled out for the 23-24 season. Why didn't they apply for the career ending exemption?

Could have signed a deal with Nike and would be playing RIGHT NOW

Fell victim to his father's hubris...

Damn that’s sad. Thought Zo was playing the best he’s played in the NBA so far and Bulls were playing some good basketball when he was avail

I believe they did

Because they can't do it on their own and will need the NBPA in along with it hence why I mentioned before that they should nudge him into medical retirement. Even if they did get granted the exemption, the moment that Lonzo steps back on the court it'd be null in void if he plays over 25 games I believe.

And I thought of Lonzo when the Thompson twins talked about how hard he worked them when they were kids...

at this point, I'd be willing to take the chance.
