## Resource

It's a Happy Summer Friday edition of the Valenti Show, with Brendan Schabath filling in for Rico. The show kicks off with reaction to the stunning news that LeBron James has signed with the rival Philadelphia 76ers. It's not good for the Pistons, whose relatively quiet offseason is coming into sharper focus in an increasingly competitive Eastern Conference. Jalen Duren appears to be no closer to signing, and reportedly wants a max extension. Even if he remains in the fold, Valenti isn't sold on the Pistons' core. Should they respond by acquiring Kevin Durant? The mercurial perennial All-Star might have signaled his interested in teaming up with Cade Cunningham. Yes, it's 'cryptic social media activity' season in the NBA.
