I'm skeptical of the quick recovery, but it would be great if he hit some shots tonight regardless.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Suns-Timberwolves Round 1 News Thread

Flagrant Fowl says Colin Cowherd is becoming ‘irrelevant’ 😳 "Zach Lowe looks much better historically. Bill Simmons is really the soul of the The Ringer, winning titles before, during, and after him. Ryen Russillo is now a more consistent player on both ends. SAS has more regular season MVPs. A...

I'm impressed with how well that guy ate the punch, and the most likely context is that everyone involved is an asshole.

Re: Game Day - Playoff Edition - Game 2: Suns (0-1) @ Wolves (1-0), Tues 4/23/24

Good thing Tony Brothers isn't on duty or the Wolves would be allowed to bludgeon the Suns again. The NBA is probably saving him to slow down the Knicks and Nuggets series'. Also, how about we keep at least this discussion a place discuss basketball games instead of bullshit no one actually cares ab...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 1 News Thread

Between Brunson benefitting from a ridiculous whistle in the first half and an error ridden ending, Sixers suffered from some terrible officiating.

Suns are favorites to win the series, but underdogs in game 1. That seems quite unusual.

I can’t fathom why anyone would do this. Is he mentally ill or just stupid?
MPJ has shared some pretty dumb opinions in the past, so it's not surprising to me that his brother is an idiot.

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News

So if it were a bigger name player or even a star, would the NBA have reacted differently? LBJ? Luka? SGA? Would it be a lifetime ban or some 50 game/season long suspension plus the whole "X player must go thru certain steps to be reinstated", along with all the articles written about gam...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Suns-Timberwolves Round 1 News Thread

That’s right, Wolves turnovers were a huge detriment to their first half woes in both recent games. It’s entirely believable the Suns are the ones making errors if they revert to being lackadaisical against an opponent they’ve recently dominated. I expect the Wolves to be much more careful with the ...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 1 News Thread

They missed their chance by not trading Paul at the deadline. His injury likely diminished his value to basically nothing so it's partially bad luck, but they should've moved him with some of their younger assets for a guy like Siakam.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Suns-Timberwolves Round 1 News Thread

I'm actually more concerned with the Conley/Gobert PnR if (when) Nurkic is out of the game. Even when Nurkic plays, he's not always great at defending it. I think the best strategy is a hard hedge with a lot of attention on making the high pass as difficult as possible. Try to get Conley to pass it ...

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News

LOL. Yeah, I thought the same.

But it seems like a lot of leagues do care, so how dedicated is he to continuing his career that'll be severely limited in opportunities?

Hello China Basketball Association.
I think I heard Jeff Teague say that a lot of other leagues won't take players banned for gambling.

His career might just be finished. His brother makes $33M/year, so I think he'll still be financially OK.

Dan Devine series preview for Suns/Wolves: Prediction: Suns in six. I’ve loved this Wolves team all season; I hate this matchup for them.

Batum would be incredible…he’s a free agent this summer…but he’d have to take the EG discount…not likely.
I wouldn’t rule it out now. It’s a relationship league and we never really know who these guys connect with behind the scenes.
