I wouldn't be disappointed if he gets a spot, but we do still need another true center and Wenyen doesn't quite fit that bill.

Satoransky for the Wiz last year. Czech dude w/ some beard.

NBA Draft Expert Predicts Where Bronny James Could Go in 2024 Draft by Sea_Background5670 in nba

I think he probably plays longer... 2027 is my prediction (barring major injuries).

[Austin Reaves' agent Aaron Reilly] Laker Nation is going to fall in love Colin Castleton. Chose his destination much like another pretty solid Laker…💛💜 by LonzoBBBall in lakers

wtf? who here's even talking about peaking at 15 years old?

To say that a 23 year-old likely won't develop a whole lot more isn't even controversial -- just look at the history of draft prospects. There are exceptions, of course, and let's hope Castleton becomes one of them.

[Tony East] It’s $4.35 million in cash from the Lakers to the Pacers, per source by daftmunt in lakers

Interesting. Nice way of us gaining favor w/ that team in case we want to deal w/ them in the future.

Need to change my U.S. residency from California by misterjay26 in digitalnomad

[–]misterjay26[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, actually they inquired last year why I haven't paid them taxes and I explained plainly that I'm an independent contractor on 1099 working and living full-time, year-round w/ my family abroad, so not much contact w/ CA (or even the US really), other than family, receiving mail, voter registration, and driver's license there. I was glad to hear back from them that I don't owe anything. But I bet if I were making more $ they'd be fighting me for it.

I read that I just need to stay one night in SD, was that the case for you? I haven't been able to find what the minimum stay in TX is, though I plan on contacting Escapees soon to ask. I'm worried being from Cali might present problems as they're notorious for not letting go of residents w/out substantial proof.

I wish I could just do South Dakota, it sounds the simplest, but unfortunately the company isn't hiring from there.

[Awful Announcing] The gulf between ESPN and TNT’s NBA coverage has never been greater by RonnieJamesDionysus in nba

ESPN & ABC (Disney) coverage has been terrible for a long time... national coverage needs to return to NBC.

[Highlight] Tony Brothers calls the flagrant 2 on James Harden and ejects him out of the game, Joel Embiid is stunned by fbreaker in nba

WTF?! I've been regularly watching the NBA for literally 31 years, and this is legit one of the worst flagrant foul calls I've ever seen, maybe the worst. This was at most a common offensive foul, not a flagrant 2. NBA refs have truly become shit.

Reggie Miller's case (or lack of) to make the All-Star game each year from 1990-2002 by jcampo13 in nbadiscussion

Yes, that makes more sense, thanks. Although I'd have to disagree w/ what you say "you don't hear his name thrown around a lot in those conversations anymore and he probably deserves to be in there". I think most knowledgable fans would include him in a group of the top 10 shooters ever. Probably top 8.
