Ever since news broke about the Kawhi Leonard-Aspiration saga, it is being said that the NBA is considering giving a major punishment to the Los Angeles Clippers after completing its investigation on the matter. The allegation is that Clippers owner Steve Ballmer used the ‘no-show’ endorsement deal with Aspiration to give Leonard approximately $28 million in additional compensation through a four-year deal.

And while the expectation is that both the franchise and the players are considering a major punishment, Max Kellerman has argued that the Clippers should actually effectively walk away unscathed.

“He’s willing to spend his money and resources to give his fans the best product. Whether he does it smart or not, right or wrong, that’s what he’s trying to do. Can I give Kawhi more money to entice him to come here? Well, if I’m a Clippers fan, cool. If you’re the league, a punishment is a punishment for a solution to something that isn’t really a problem,” Kellerman said on Game Over. Told on the podcast.

He argued that “no harm, no foul” simply because the Clippers “aren’t that good anyway”, suggesting that the rest of the league had no reason to complain. Kellerman suggested financial penalties instead

“Don’t punish the Clippers in terms of draft picks or anything like that. That’s silly, you don’t want a team to be worthless for five years, and I believe the Clippers will do that. Don’t do that. You want to punish him? Fine him. Give him a huge fine. $100 million, $50 million fine, Ballmer will pay it. Just fine him something big if the league is upset that he used his money to get an unfair advantage. “If you’re doing that, spread your assets. And you give it to other teams, make Kawhi a free agent, that’s fine,” he said.

Kellerman believes it would be detrimental to the NBA because the Clippers would not be able to compete if real action was taken. Instead, he suggested making Leonard a free agent, claiming that wealth redistribution might be a better solution.

Of course, while this argument makes sense given that the Clippers will undoubtedly be affected, the problems are also obvious. Not imposing adequate penalties would not only set a hugely problematic precedent, but it would also completely undermine the league’s salary cap and other finance-related rules and regulations.

Rich Paul was quiet when Max Kellerman blasted Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic.

Paul and Kellerman took part on the February 18 episode of the Game Over podcast. The latter didn’t stop Doncic, calling out the Lakers star for constantly complaining to officials, while making bold comments about him and Boston Celtics head Jaylen Brown.

“Every single trip down the floor, you’re complaining to the refs. Luka, every single trip down the floor, you’re complaining to the refs. Even when he hits shots. No, you’re not going to get another one. And it can’t be that the refs blow every call on Luka Doncic,” Kellerman said at the 18:08 mark.

“Rich, you and I both saw it last night. Jaylen Brown is better than Luka Doncic. Better player, I’d like to have him on the team. If I had to start a team, I’d like to start it with Jaylen Brown.”

Paul responded, “Jaylen Brown is a very good player,” as Kellerman quickly responded, “He’s better than Luka.”

Luka Doncic, what’s next for the Lakers

It’s clear that Luka Doncic is one of the best players in the entire NBA. However, his tendency to make too many mistakes and complain to officials may present a flaw in his on-court mentality.

Doncic is going through his seventh season in the league, his second with the Lakers. He is playing at a high level, producing 32.8 points, 8.5 assists and 7.7 rebounds per game in 44 appearances. He is shooting 47.1% from the field, including 35.5% from beyond the arc and 77.6% from the free-throw line.

Los Angeles has a record of 34–22 on the season, finishing fifth in the Western Conference standings. They have the tiebreaker advantage over the Minnesota Timberwolves and are ahead of the Phoenix Suns by two games. However, they trail the Houston Rockets by 0.5 games and the Denver Nuggets by one game.

The Lakers will prepare for the final game of an eight-game homestand. They will host the Orlando Magic as tip-off takes place on February 24 at 10:30 PM ET.

此後，她被前體育中心主播謝伊·科內特取代，但四個月後她將重返銀幕進行新的冒險。

Molly Qerim 的新角色是什麼？

41 歲的 Qerim 已被宣佈為 Zuffa Boxing 的新主持人，Zuffa Boxing 是 TKO 和 Sela 的合資企業，該賽事將於週五晚上在拉斯維加斯舉行首場比賽。

Zuffa Boxing 是一項得到 WWE 總裁 Nick Khan、UFC 總裁 Dana White 和 Turki Alalshikh 等高管支持的新晉促銷活動，將在 Paramount+ 上播出其首場賽事。

為了開啟這項運動的新時代，不敗的愛爾蘭初中量級新秀卡勒姆·沃爾什將在拉斯維加斯 UFC Apex 的主賽事中迎戰經驗豐富的老將卡洛斯·奧坎波。

米薩爾·羅德里格斯對陣奧斯汀·迪安達、朱利安·羅德里格斯對陣凱恩·桑多瓦爾以及奧馬爾·特立尼達對陣馬克斯·奧內拉斯也將出現在八場比賽中。

奎里姆在社交媒體上宣布了她的主持職責，她指出週五的比賽將是必看的，並感謝球迷在她高調離開 ESPN 後給予的支持。

她在自己的 Instagram 故事中寫道：“我非常興奮能夠舉辦祖法拳擊比賽——這是我自從周五晚上比賽以來就一直喜歡的一項運動——並且能夠與這麼多老朋友重新取得聯繫。”

“在維加斯舉行的拳手會議已經結束，我感到完全重新充滿活力，準備好投入到新的篇章中，並幫助從頭開始打造一些特別的東西。

“非常感謝達納和尼克對我的信任。拳擊迷——不要錯過週五晚上，如果你不是拳擊迷……看看我們，你可能會成為一名拳擊迷。

“感謝自從我決定離開 ESPN 以來所有與我聯繫的人；這些支持的意義超出了你的想像。這次休假——家人、旅行、存在——真是一份禮物。我回來了。非常愛你，MQ。”

莫莉·凱里姆 (Molly Qerim) 為何離開 ESPN？

四個月前，《體育商業雜誌》首先報導了 Qerim 突然離開 ESPN 的消息，這讓這位主持人因無法親自宣布這一消息而感到沮喪。

在隨後的一份聲明中，她指出，經過深思熟慮，現在是時候結束她人生中“令人難以置信的一章”了。

奎里姆沒有在給粉絲的信息中具體說明她的下一步行動，並且在接下來的幾周和幾個月里基本上淡出了公眾的視線。

ESPN 內容總裁伯克·馬格努斯 (Burke Magnus) 後來解釋說，在她離開全球領導者之前，雙方已經確定，當她的合同於 2025 年底到期時，她將從 First Take 中除名。

他還表示，雙方曾就續約事宜進行過討論，以使她繼續留在電視網，但他覺得她想“探索其他事情”，而兩人“並不完全一致”。

事實上，奎里姆已經把早上的“First Take”辯論變成了拳擊比賽。
