⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER — "ESPN Report Contradicted" (15:47) Back in August, ESPN reported the NBA had "found no evidence" Ballmer funneled money to Leonard — a report the league publicly disputed within hours. The crew revisits that report against Wednesday's actual ruling and asks the hard question: was that story a trial balloon for a settlement that never came, or just wrong?
