Yesterday news broke that allegedly Kawhi Leonard signed a secret $28 million dollar deal with FinTech Aspiration to skirt the NBA salary cap. Steve Ballmer and LA Clippers have denied any wrongdoing but as we have covered Aspiration many times I thought some readers might be interested in watching/listening to the PTFO episode about this (embedded below).

I remember when I closed my account with them a few years back they had a warning that you could never re-open if you left. Oh well!

Hey, kids, today's lesson is all about "plausible deniability." Let's get started!
P.S. We will also cover the bonus topic of "when you are owed money in a shady deal, don't file a claim with the bankruptcy court that spotlights the whole thing." Part of our series: "Things Tony Soprano Wouldn't Do."
LOL
The biggest takeaway from this is they still couldn't win. 🤣🤣
DoC readers follow sportsball? TIL
Yes! Two subs I’m subscribed to are r/churning and r/nba. But it is funny to see the Kawhi story here.
Only the dumbest ones who post three variations of the same comment across the span of an hour and a half. Correlation? You bet!
First two went to spam because I posted too fast. Last time Doc didn't post my spam. This time he did, 12 hours later. As for being dumb, well.

Which sports game is the pointy ball?
Rugby, obviously.
AFL balls are pointy-er.

Thought they were a socially responsible fintech bank....
No such thing.
Kawhi doesn’t show up to his NBA job very often, so how is his endorsement deal with Aspiration any different? Perhaps it was a legitimate endorsement deal, but nagging injuries kept him from appearing in advertising.
always avoided this "deal"
He was a lousy MSN CEO too.
