Luka and Ben Simmons joining forces?
Morey’s current asking price for Simmons keeps the Mavs from getting their foot in the door here (for now), but there have been separate rumors saying Luka likes the idea of playing with Simmons & Simmons has Dallas on his shortlist… 🤷♂️ https://t.co/SLaZTCrSnG

Get them Brian!!!!
Brian Flores is going scorched earth on the NFL and NY Giants, filing an explosive lawsuit where the ex-Dolphins coach alleges the team’s hiring practices were rooted in racism, and he claims a text from Bill Belichick proves it. https://t.co/UIklDJNBsn

This is juicy
Good lord. Bill Belichick mistakingly texting Brian Flores to congratulate him on Giants job instead of Brian Daboll is pretty wild. Days before it was even announced or Flo met with Giants again, according to the lawsuit. pic.twitter.com/2HUTtMsDKK

Is a tsunami coming?
This Brian Flores lawsuit against the #NFL is going to resonate throughout sports and be a significant moment in the history of the league. I’ve spoken to two other coaches who believe they have the receipts to be a part of the class. This could be a tsunami before it’s all over.
