The Official Off-Season NBA Thread

Mercury needs to pull their skirts down and do media.

Congrats Sky

No.... They don't. Their feelings > nonsense job "requirements"

Wrong thread

I hate how this is a thing. People are allowed to feel. The media access has gone too far to where they cast Aspersions on upset people.

Cause we need to hear these empty canned questions the media asks... No we don't

I agree that it’s silly. Wouldn’t surprise me if the whole antiquated practice didn’t start as some kind of test of “sportsmanship” or “toughness” more than an exercise actually designed to gather important information.

While I agree, it's also a sport that has been desperate for coverage and in what has been one of its most popular years ever it probably would have been good to see Taurasi speak on the series and whatnot.

Can't complain about the lack of media coverage then not do post game interviews.

Thank you!

Them not doing media going to cause a bigger story than them doing media.

Definitely a fair point.

And them not talking to the media does potentially provide fodder for the sexist anti-NBA crowd, dumb as that may be.

The Mercury have Brittany Griner, Diana Taurasi & Skylar Diggins-Smith, 3 of the Top 10 faces of the league also

IMO that's like LeBron, AD and Russ not speaking after the Finals

 

[addict4sneakers]

Ehhhh I get they’ve been complaining about coverage (rightfully so) but no one cares what the losing team says. We all love the league but unless you say something controversial, no one remembers.

quick what did Booker say after game 6? No one cares.

The only thing I can remember from Bron’s post game L’s were the family man comments and the cast. That’s just me. I don’t care what a losing team says. Especially after losing 3-1

 

[antidope]

How many losing team commentaries can we rattle off the top of our heads? LeBron regular people lives?

Basically.

The only other losing team media session EYE memba is also Lebby when he came rocking the fake wrestling cast from outta nowhere.

 

[ill steelo]

Yikes

This will become a bigger story than actually doing the media inadvertently drawing more discussion about the league

[HIM]

Tbh, i don’t give a **** about the winning team’s postgame conference either, unless it’s my team.

Damn Bron really the GOAT at this

He might be, got that time too when he looked like the 1st black congressman

I don’t follow WNBA. But that sounds like a hella of a big three. Were there favored over Chicago going into the series?
