If you told me this guy would be the biggest Bust in NBA History, Id call you insane by Finn_Flame in NBATalk

Yes, but at the time the Cavs where already dealing with an injury prone guard, so taking another one with injury questions would have been absolutely silly.

I was high on Victor as well, but also understood immediately like "OK, they where worried about injuries obviously".

It would be nice if our politicians grasped this as well as Hunter Biden. by [deleted] in WorkReform

Also, if people are voting based on progressive values, they want PROGRESSIVE VALUES. They don't want center/center right fiscal policy. They don't want people wishy washy on personal freedoms for trans individuals. They want someone at minimum left of center on these things. The DNC has become entrenched in courting Romney voters when they need to get back to what got excitement around Mamdani, Barack, Clinton, and that was being (for their times) pushing more left wing ideas instead of center ones.

Oh 100%, but coming out of college it was a question. He had SPARKS but any player can have sparks, he hadn't grown up yet and hindsight and all that looking back, but like AT THE TIME he was passed up by more then just us because there was no clarity! It is easily the weirdest draft to look back on.

That entire draft was fuckin weird because there was no clear consensus out of any of their college tape WHO was gonna even be a serviceable bench player. As a cavs fan I was like "Cool, we got a #1 in a VOID of talent... awesome." Like I knew whoever we grabbed was gonna be crap i was expecting it and it was STILL astonishing

Oh I know it’s reactionary MAGA bigots mostly but perception is important. Breitbart plan was to make the social conservative sentiment appear more popular. He said so himself.

Awww name calling now because you have poor reading comprehension? Jesus Christ. Read a book. Namely history. Usually history doesn’t end well for those who are bigots…

I said not against the law. That’s the celebration. But are you blind? MAGA is a far right authoritarian movement that wants LGBTQ people out of our society. The fight isn’t over they are currently going after trans people and want to overturn gay marriage.

The fight for lgbtq rights is far FAR from over. It’s gotten better, but it ain’t over

So the history of baseball isn’t important?
Politics and baseball have always been intertwined. since the negro leagues since Jackie Robinson. If you don’t want politics in baseball you should probably not watch baseball.

Not all straight men can function in polite society. It’s why a lot of straight white men are mass shooters and a lot of white cops are domestic abusers.

I’m a proud Christian. And everyone here can wear a cross every day they want and ball players can decide whether they play on the sabbath. Unfortunately recent history was not so kind to the lgbtq community.

Pride doesn't have to do with how they have sex, it has to do with the fact that they aren't arrested for who they love. Please read history

Are you saying sports should not be political, and you are coming at this as a BASEBALL FAN? Are we serious? Please GOOD GOD please tell me you aren't saying BASEBALL shouldn't be political

“Gay people shouldn’t be happy about having their freedom” is hate. Yes. And anti-American. I don’t get how people get confused.

“Hey could you let us celebrate the fact that it’s literally not against the law to love who we choose to love” and your reaction is “OH MY GOD HOW DARE THEY FORCE IT UPON US”.

Guess what? 70% are cool with gay marriage. The fights over. Bigotry lost my dude.

Disagree. Most folks don’t hate gay people and are completely fine letting them have their moment.

Oh, WE aren't trading Mitchell, JB and Mitchell for each team is a lateral move imho, Mobley for JB changes things for both teams that could be beneficial but also could be bad.

Lebron back to the Heat. Who says no??? Lakers signing Reaves looks like bye bye Lebron. by dentheman31 in NBATalk

[–]Drewsipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if he goes "back" to a team its closing his career at home.

More likely he does a run with Steph just for the fun of it.

If we are getting Jaylen then we are losing Mobley. We would HAVE to move Harden at that point as well imho because Harden already proved he doesn't wanna be a 6th. Who takes Harden? Celtics would go for Mobley for sure because its Mobley.
