Kawichael’s game and temperament should lend themselves to getting the best version of what’s left of Brodie.

Hopefully our Clipset psychologist is better than LoLakers’.

Didn’t take long for Peloton to start yapping


Fringe role players on teams outside of the play-in publicly commenting on the strength of the conference is crazy to me

Bulls don’t get enough criticism. 3 recent all-stars who’ve all played 50+ games so far and they’re in 11th place?

 

[CJMcfly26]

Dipset better than to be associated with the clippers. Diplomats was a movement B.

Since that terrible Russ contract is no more…

Duncan Robinson now has the worst contract in the NBA.

 

[pmatic]

Even Adam Silver is laughing off the regular season.

The Miami Heat would hang up the phone if Brooklyn called offering Ben Simmons for Duncan Robinson

 

[HIM]

Lonzo’s has to be the worst right? He may never play again.

 

[Coupé It]

He’s second.

Robinson signed not too long ago.

These numbers are insane.

Even Adam Silver is laughing off the regular season.

Ehhhh it’s really not THAT bad. Mavs have 22 regular seasons games left and currently 11 of them are nationally televised (ESPN/TNT/ABC/NBATV). I would be curious about his long term plan, though

 

[pmatic]

Ben Simmons, Duncan Robinson and Davis Bertans are bottom three.

 

[storm2006]

He’s second.

Robinson signed not too long ago.

These numbers are insane.

Ben Simmons is getting in excess of $35MM to be a THIRD STRING Center famb. More fouls per game FGM. That is worse to me.

 

[addict4sneakers]

If Duncan Robinson ran down the court you’d still respect him. He’s not the only or even the first player making that kind of money to be a family man.

Ben is on a max contract. It’s not even close

Aren’t like half the league’s teams broadcast through Bally’s though?

Btw, those idiots at Bally’s deserve this. They tried to strong arm all the streaming platforms and took the channel off every platform except like 2. Good riddance.

It’s not just the money, it’s the years.

Ben’s contract runs out sooner. You can at least try to start looking forward and plan ahead if you’re the Nets.

That’s why I go Duncan. You’re tethered to his contract for longer.

 

[Coupé It]

Both of these bums are untradable.

Both of these organizations should cry.

My apologies - you are correct. I misread the excerpt. From the full article:

Sixteen of the NBA’s 30 teams have local broadcast deals with one of the 19 Bally Sports regional sports networks, and the potential timeline for Diamond to reach bankruptcy could conflict with the end of the regular season.

 

[pmatic]

Thought this was actually a thoughtful discussion.



Didn't SAS have some blow-up with Reddick a few months ago about being smarter than the players?

 

[Mister Meaner]

Don’t think I’ve ever heard Tristian Thompson[sp?] speak but I won’t mind never hearing it again.

No disrespect but he sounds pretty SpEd and thus a tad unqualified as a reputable source of information about the game.

Maybe he just needs a change in speech pattern
