The 2017 NBA playoffs were somewhat anticlimactic, but the rumor mill has been out of control in the week since the Warriors defeated the Cavaliers in the Finals last Monday.
Just one week into the offseason, names like Jimmy Butler, Kevin Love, and Kristaps Porzingis have surfaced in trade rumors, and the Paul George sweepstakes are well underway — Indiana’s star forward informed the Pacers he intends to leave in 2018, with an eye toward the Lakers. Oh, and did we mention the first overall pick in this Thursday’s draft has already been traded?
Over at Hoops Rumors, we’ve published our 2017 NBA mock draft, and we’ll be keeping tabs on every trade rumor reported leading up to – and during – Thursday night’s draft. Be sure to check out Hoops Rumors and follow @HoopsRumors to keep up with what’s rapidly becoming a wild NBA offseason.

Please no NBA in the MLB. It’s a non sport

Wrong. The article that talked about the Celtics trading No. 1 overall pick to the Philedelphia 76ers for the No, 3 overall pick and Lakers first round pick next year (or Sacremento’s 2019 first round pick) had 112 comments. Want to point out the last article here that had that much discussion? I think mlbtr tops out at 300 comments for really juicy rumors / debate but I could be wrong. Anyways- MLBTR changed the game the way rumors are reported, they changed the game and I hope they do the same for basketball. Keep up the good work Tim, Jeff, Steve (and anyone else) you’re going to have a sports empire soon. (If you don’t have it already) Ignore the haters, and keep promoting your sister sites. I’ve never seen hoopsrumors with this many comments and traffic, even if it’s the crazy two days leading up to the NBA draft. I Love it, it’s crazy and dare I say, right now there might be more people on Hoopsrumors then mlbtr. But basketball is a ‘non sport’ that doesn’t deserve promotion here at mlbtr. right? Try again
