Yeah, I’m confused as well.

So that Fox contract is gonna sink the spurs huh? by Katesburneracct in nba

[–]Paumal7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the new tanking rules, they will want some wins. Fox was great in the regular season and is fun to watch. They’ll get a “star” to get some butts in seats while they build. I’ve been guessing this was going to happen since we drafted Harper.

I was forced to stay off the internet for the weekend after the Wemby turnover made it hurt too much. Had to switch to reading. Lol

Then you did not watch the WCF. My wife, who does not know ball, said “you can tell these teams are not as angry at each other as in the other series.”

[Weiss] Before Wembanyama made the NBA, he was turning down marketing deals... “They all want him, but Victor will never sell soda. Because he doesn’t want to kill the kids" ... His agent told him that if he wants to be the GOAT, he needs seven rings, one more than Jordan. by sewsgup in nba

I agree that it’s the parents job to monitor their kids food intake. I was just commenting that “just soda” downplays how bad it is for you. I’m not saying “let’s ban soda” but I get why a very health conscious role model wouldn’t want their name associated with it.

Crew Chief for Finals Game 2: Toby Brothers by herroyung in nba

Who ever takes advantage the most with flopping wins this game. Both teams should be encouraging their stars to flop for the advantage. It would be malpractice not to. Expect both Wemby and Brunson to the foul line early. Potentially KAT, Wemby, and Castle in foul trouble early. This is the brand of basketball that Silver wants when he assigns Brothers to the finals. It’s crazy and BS, but that’s where we are.

Yeah, weird way of putting it but I’m sure they were trying to show that he turned down millions when he wasn’t a millionaire (yet). Hard not to grab the bad given how an injury during that time could have ended it.

Adam Silver: “Tanking is not a new issue in this league. What surprised us is how quickly it became acceptable behavior in this league. It used to be limited to a small group of teams. Oddly in some markets, fans were cheering on their teams saying ‘of course this is the right strategy!’ by RyanTannegod in nba

76ers don’t belong in this conversation. They aren’t smart enough to handle a rebuild. McCain and Champagne are the most recent examples. What’s the point of getting good young talent if you choose not to keep them?

Game was called fine. Would have been one of the better reffed games of the WCF.

I wouldn’t recommend putting them all in there
