⭐ OFFICIAL 2020-2021 NBA Off-Season Thread: Olympics begin 7/23; NBA Draft 7/29⭐

i wonder how much free team gear one gets while on a 10 day

 

[Based Jesus]

Anthony Edwards is a rookie that had a dunk in the 3rd quarter to tie the game. But sure let's pretend it's the same.

****** was too busy thinking about dinner plans and celebrating another W to bother with defense
Good for Russ though, I'm happy for him. Greatest dunk of all time down 10 with 30 seconds left on the clock in a loss

Othrr than PJ Washington, none of those bums in Charlotte have anything to look forward to either sans for cashinga check, but I'm glad they got a regular season W against the Wizards. Every last one of them would trade a team W for an individual highlight, guaranteed.

 

[N41D]

Weren't Y'ALL going at that reporter for going at Antman for the body he caught saying check the stats? Wondering how this is much different. Russ' hate is DIFFERENT.

THEY said nerds were ruining basketball and needed to find a new hobby.

A nice dunk is a nice dunk. 2 of my 4 dunks in 6th grade Boys Club Biddy Basketball (8.5 foot rims) were in losses and I still celebrated them.

 

[HOU$TON]

Y’all say midrange is championship basketball

So some execs are complaining about the buyout market now

 

[don ramon]

50k fine for durant

 

[tomdiginson]

Thanis been putting up some solid numbers off the bench for the last few games.

prisoner-of-the-moment overreaction.

Tampering?

Small market execs and teams seems to want a lot of accommodation based on their location.

No, his “homophobic and misogynistic rant” at Michael Rapaport.

This is the 3rd straight day you’ve mentioned this play.Nobody ever said this bum couldn’t dunk.

 

[datznasty]

nba just released the photo on social media today. Bunch of Colin Cowherds on nt, don't you root and maybe work iirc for a bum *** organization yourself?

Don’t know what they could realistically to to change the fact buyout guys prefer to go to contenders and/or big markets.

Someone posted stats the other day showing buyout additions have very little impact historically on who wins. People are just freaking out because two guys who were perennial all-stars until just recently got bought out in the same season and went to the same team that already had multiple superstars.

IMO, what happened with the Nets this year was an aberration and not a scenario likely to repeat itself. Not a reason to revamp the rules.

shouldn’t be difficult to remember the team I root for. I didn’t jump from one team to another like thot the way you did with the Mavs and OKC.

Getting two former all stars in the buy out market isn’t a big deal

The Nets are now Blake’s team. We’re only a few months away from him earning his first FMVP trophy.

 

[datznasty]

Respekk on the memory tip. Nobody from that era is even still in the league it was that long ago. So I'll just continue to root for (although in this case it means wanting them to lose more) thee guys out of geographic convenience. Not getting back into the season ticket game though.

 

[lawdog1]

Wonder if the union fights the fine. Not on the grounds what he said was “ok”, but because KD said it in the context of what he thought was a private conversation and someone else chose to share it on-line without his consent. Slippery slope kind of argument.

I’m just ****ing with you. I did the same with the Rams when we finally got a team in LA

Its funny you mention that because today on First Take SAS compared it to the Donald Sterling situation in some ways (private conversation being leaked). The major discernment they made was that Donald Sterling was talking about folks in a monolith as opposed to KD just using terms. On the flip side, you have the MAGAs who don’t like the NBA....but are outraged for this reason

I have to agree. Meyers Leonard should've been forgiven. The Nets are my favorite team along with the Lakers but KD is a lib scum

 

[flyerthandelta]

Utah
Phoenix
Denver
LA Clippers
LA Lakers

The crazy part is that one of these teams will be going home in the first round.

Which is Who...
