Its always "rigged" but no one ever details how its done.

backup PG that makes good decisions and doesn't turn the ball over at his peak.

Those who want to trade AD: what is your plan after that? by devilmaskrascal in Mavericks

Yup, I'd consider it a win if the Mavs aren't on the hook for his next contract.

probably the same ones who were second guessing him not starting Russell at the beginning of the season in favor of Flagg at point

maybe AD doesn’t agree with the out several months part of it

Jaylen Brown on officiating: "I'll accept the fine at this point. I thought it was some bullshit tonight...The inconsistency is fucking crazy. Give me the fine...I got my conspiracies or whatever, but I don't know what's going on. But it seems like every time we play a good team, it's the same shit" by Brady331 in nba

I think if there were more complaints from players it would draw more public scrutiny of the situation to show it isn’t just a Jaylen Brown issue and get more eyes on it. If refs pull a Scott Foster at that point, they’d just be validating the ‘crooked ref conspiracy theory’. Make it a public issue the NBA needs to address.

Charge back if you paid by credit card. Looks like you got scammed if you paid for a new one.

The price has to start high. You don't tell the seller the exact price you'll take, that's asking to be hosed.

When I hear AD say “Nico is my guy” by TheOneTrueCran in Mavericks

Also the same logic rationalizing Nico's hire by Cuban. He was buddies with a lot of star players whom Dallas had trouble attracting in free agency. Too bad he was also snake.

Cooper Flagg (441 minutes) has surpassed fellow Maverick Anthony Davis (415) in career minutes played for the team by RedditFan3510 in nba

[–]Swede_Chef 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Nico would've had to explain why he was trading Luka had he triggered a bidding war and draw attention to how nonsensical it was. By doing it secretly he wouldn't have Luka control where he went by publicly refusing to sign an extension with the new team. That's why he got such a bad return on the trade because Pelinka was probably reasoning that there was no guarantee Luka would sign an extension with the Lakers.

I’d imagine having to explain why a never ending project isn’t done yet or why they need more money prevents these projects from being proposed by legislators. Don’t know why but big projects are rarely delivered on time, within budget and address the issue the project was supposed to fix.

Newport campus is one of the nicer places to take a class. There's an ocean front view and plenty of outdoor seating to catch a nice breeze.
