Link to Kai interview? Good to hear if he’s coming around. Seemed like a pleasant person when not being crazy.
Watching it again, it’s kinda sad. Best wishes to him. The guy interviewing him strikes the right balance of admiration, support and curiosity.
27 minutes in he explains his goat mentality (it’s his family thing from the Bahamas) and 28 minutes in he talks about his love for the organization.

Thanks for posting! Didn’t listen to the whole thing but the bit that I did hear definitely provided some good insight. Kai seems like a thoughtful and all around good guy who was probably a little immature and was dealing with some personal stuff that he didn’t handle well. Sounds like he’s in a better place now. Hope he can pull things together and resume his career.

The contracts Brad Stevens is giving out are hard to comprehend. In total, they owe Tatum, White, Holiday, and Brown $860m. Great for the players, no doubt, but the numbers are just bonkers to contemplate.

Market consensus: Brandon is not worth it.
I mean yeah but I hope its not another Caleb Martin type thing for us…
Or hope it doesn’t become another Caleb Martin situation for him
Looks to me like Detroit still has to meet the spending minimum threshold. Might as well have given Cabe his max now:
Keeping up with Zo (just in case):
I hate to live in the past. It’s just highlights. It’s just summer league. But man…
Finger rolls, steals, rim protection, deep shooting, dunking. There’s a lot to like from this. Oh well, he might’ve been a quick fix but I gotta trust the process and enjoy the glimpses of potential we might get from Salaun this season.
I thought he wasn’t that impressive in his first game. Was this game 2?
Lebron’s got the whole league afraid to say (even in private conversation) what we all see and know to be true. But mostly I hate this for Bronny. LBJ’s manipulation of the situation by forcing Bronny onto a roster has put a giant bullseye on his back and has set him up to fail. Just really feel for Bronny. Seems like a nice kid and I can’t imagine he’s enjoying this experience.
This was game 2 of the Vegas cluster.
In the first game of the Vegas tourney he went 9-18 for 25 points.
I think he had mixed results in the California tourney. There was at least one disappointing game.
At this level he is confirming that he’s much more than a shooter. Will be interesting to see how he translates to the NBA.

That’s where i have been from the get. I feel for this kid. I don’t blame the dad, being a dad, i know we screw up all the time despite the best intentions. But man Bronny has such a target on his back indeed and it really is unfortunate.
Yeah, the dad part of me doesn’t blame LeBron for sure. I know how cool it is just to be able to play pick up with my kids now that they’re old enough. But there’s just so much wrong with how this happened. When power and influence grow to the point where no one can or will tell you no, bad outcomes always result.
WTF! How did Zion lose the weight?
Okay, after my shock, I say: Good for him, his team and his family!
This guy is banged all the way up. Let’s see what he does in training camp. Reality could set in for the Nuggets on day one of training camp:
Great news on Lonzo folks:
