Notice Of Separation: The 2023 NBA Free agency/Off-Season Thread

Nike said new uniforms every season for this current deal

Nike's partnerships with sports leagues has been the biggest disappointment I can remember. Just doing way too much.


Also devaluing throwbacks. Nobody's gonna wanna harlem shake in 2040 to Knicks City Edition jerseys

He was drafted straight out of high school, became a ava all star and all rookie team, as the NBA incorporated all aba records and etc yeah Moses Malone was that guy before LeBron.

Even if we go with that, that was still like 30 years before Bron got drafted. So either way it was not the norm for a player as young as Bron to come in and be that good, that soon

Boozer not re-signing with Cleveland significantly altered the last 20 years.

Had Boozer stayed in Cleveland. I believe the Cavs would've won 1 or 2 championships before Lebron became a FA in 2010...We would've gotten 1 or 2 Lebron/Kobe finals matchups...Boozer would probably be in the HOF had he won multiple titles with Cleveland. Lebron stays in Cleveland...Wade probably has no championships instead of 3....etc....etc....etc....

The stories about the lesser known guys are always dope to me.

Also have to put into context that prior to LeBron we’d basically never seen a teenager player come into the league and immediately takeover a team and be the star player. There was always a bit of a learning curve

Kevin Garnett?
