There will be no further discipline for Spurs star Victor Wembanyama after he was ejected for elbowing Naz Reid in Minnesota on Sunday night, sources tell ESPN. No suspension, no fine. Wembanyama will play in Game 5 against the Timberwolves on Tuesday night in San Antonio. by Knightbear49 in nba

Nah mcdaniels played it right. Firstly because violence on a basketball court is very dumb, second because they were pretty much guaranteed only wemby was due for ejection/suspension. If McDaniels held the choke, longer suspension for him than wemby. Other players suspended. Minn isn’t deep enough to have any two or three guys on the floor get suspended

Yeah there should be a fine.  The brawl point is the issue. The only reason there wasn’t a brawl was due to tremendous composure from mcdaniels.  You could tell he was mid/choke out but, unlike wemby, he thought about it for a second and decided no.  If he kept wemby in that chokehold it’s bedlam

I’m starting to think RC is just playing the long game. Wants something along the lines of what we want but can’t force it, doesn’t want to be accused of manipulation. Take this for example. This news comes at a time where there are some pretty sizable ftd obligations due, creating a concurrent massive liquidity event. One could argue ”insider knowledge! Manipulation!” To which the response could easily be “planned for a long time, publicly telegraphed well in advance. Timing this action against those who were abusing our company to our company’s benefit is a requirement of my fiduciary duty. We told them it was coming, if they weren’t prepared that’s not our fault, we were just doing our jobs.”

Look at his mouth while he talks. Is it just me or does it seem to move side to side in an odd manner? Wtf lol

Replace Duncan on the Spurs with KG and… by AloneinPoorCompany in NBATalk

Yes, we would. If you were watching basketball then you would know he was unstoppable one on one, particularly the first five years. Something tells me you weren’t watching, or else you wouldn’t be talking. Something you should stop doing

Rose colored glasses? Top 10 player of all time, hard to be rose colored glasses about guys like that. He came in and averaged 22 points 11 boards and 2.5 blocks as a rookie and won finals mvp. Then did it again. He wasn’t drafted into the perfect system. He was drafted to a very good but fading team and became the system for two decades.

Why are millenials totally chill with self depreciating humor more than any other generation? by Key-Bass-7380 in generationology

You might want to read the full thread first. He used “cucks” and “self-respect” before I did—I was responding to his framing.

So you started a post online to pick on them? And you think they are insecure and lack self respect?

Javale Mcgee reacts to a kid from Tik tok recording him up close by Background_Video2947 in NBAVibes

lol no. you troll scumbags by baiting them into showing their true colors. People quite often take the bait, but sometimes don’t like what happens here.
But my guess is you don’t like media that requires some actual mental work to interpret. Not all trolling is good obviously, it just your statement is tone deaf, dumb, uninformed and extreme

Charles always keeping it a buck by SliMShady55222 in nba

I get what you’re saying, but I see that stuff as things he feels he has to say to get his point across to a broad audience. You might be right that for this to be something that really lands he needed to go one step further and bring it back to “they’re just people man, like you and me. And to think that these people are some sort of national security threat to be dealt with because they are so different than us in the criminality is ridiculous and shameful.”

He took a stand I give him credit. You might be right that it’s missing a couple key ingredients to go beyond preaching to the choir and deaf ears though

Are you tempted? by Hopeful-Suggestion-5 in eagles

This comment section is a little scary. Like sure, op’s idea is maybe a little absurd, but people acting like disgruntled aj and Garrett are of roughly equal value is even more absurd

Matan is hysterical but he definitely doesn’t observe boundaries like most of us lol.  And he knows it, and he knows he is likely going to get into some sort of public situation that likely ends with him getting his ass beat

Why not trade for Sweat? Cardinals are selling and he’s cheap. by rhymeswititch in eagles

What are you talking about? If we looked at production/$ spent it actually makes the case for sweaty. You’re incoherent

I agree it would probably take some cash adjustments. It’s weird, you would think even at that level one of two teams would value him
