(Also, where is Ben Simmons?!) And yet here we are! Here’s the part that should scare the rest of the league ladies and gentlemen. This isn’t LeBron joining a team that needs him to be the engine.

You don’t need to understand basketball to own an NBA team. You need to understand money. How it talks and walks. The mechanisms it uses to make the world go around. Basketball is merely a conduit. For a while, it was unclear whether Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta understood his function. It’s somewhat understandable. When you own something, there’s an understandable instinct to take ownership. (I assume). But Fertitta does not know basketball. He said Chris Paul had the worst contract...
