The CAA stuff was creepy back in the Chris Smith days, but there doesn’t seem to be much smoke now.

I have really enjoyed Winning Time but man they wrapped that up faster and more abruptly than Game of Thrones.

So Kelly Oubre Jr. just signed a 1-year deal with the Sixers. I guess they’re desperate!

“It was our 2 best players and our coach up until today. That’s pretty significant.”

The question is, how significant? And in what way significant? Positive or negative?

Randle and Brunson are both signed to value deals relative to their performance. If CAA connections helped with that, hooray!

Donovan Mitchell wanted to come here but was not accommodated by Ainge.

There is no evidence of either players not wanting to come here because they weren’t CAA or Knicks not interested players because they weren’t CAA.

So if the relationship is helping but not hurting, why should anyone be concerned about it?

It was our 2 best players and our coach up until today. That’s pretty significant. Wasn’t Obi CAA also?

Yeah, but how much would you bet? And at what odds? 😉

LOL

“i’d bet there’s a lot of teams with more than 4 CAA players/coaches.”

Yeah, but how much would you bet? And at what odds? 😉

All of the concerns about CAA/Kentucky stuff has been way overblown from day one of the Leon regime, in that every effective front office relies on connections of one sort or another. If they are not, they are probably behind the curve.

NBA TV yesterday showed a replay of Randle’s game winning shot in Miami, forgot how absolutely incredible he was that game.
