According to ESPN‘s Zach Lowe, the coach’s challenge system will be implemented as soon as the summer leagues, as a trial to test out the new rules.

Coaches will be allotted only one challenge per game and must have a timeout remaining if they want to use it. Based on a league memo, the only plays they can challenge are “called fouls, goaltending, basket interference and plays when the ball is knocked out of bounds.” Furthermore, a coach will have to use the timeout immediately after the play if they want to challenge it by “twirling his/her index finger toward the referees” as the signal. A successful challenge will allow the team to retain its timeout, but an unsuccessful one will lose the timeout for the team. While referees will be the final judge of challenges concerning called fouls, the “NBA Replay Center will decide all other challenges.”

Two-thirds of the 30 teams in the league will have to approve the challenge system in order for it to be established, and it seems many are in favor of the new changes so far.
 
Doesn’t seem like our owners/GM/whoever the 100 people that make decisions for the team wanna give Jimmy five years. Seems like they’re cool giving Tobias that though cause of the age difference and no real injury history.

Disappointing
 
You'd have to be a pretty sh***y person to dislike Kawhi. Dude is genuinely the most likable guy in the NBA :lol:

Dirk JUST retired, let’s let this one breath

Plus Klay is high on the likeable list, dude just shows up plays ball actually plays defense and then wants to go home to his dog

Part of the reason Kawhi is liked right now is because he’s viewed as a free thinker, who bet on himself, and didn’t need other all-stars to win a title. If he joins the Lakers super team with Lebbywinks, that kind of goes out the window for most folks. Not saying it’s fair to him, but that’s how it’s going to go everywhere but LA.
