Terry Porter almost earned himself asterisk treatment, like L*c L*****y and M*****l B*****y and H**o T******u.

Re: Around the League: October
The best thing Michael Kidd-Gilchrist could do to have an amazing NBA career would be to become a knockdown 3-point shooter. He'd have a job and a decent paycheck for 15 years to come.

Re: Phoenix Suns 2014-2015 Season Expectations
I think it's an interesting idea but wouldn't work well in the NBA. Guys are creatures of habit and get used to playing in certain roles at certain times. Also guys want the respect of starting every game, etc. I think it is a good idea to think creatively about how to reduce the wear 'n' tear on th...

Horny's like, "I came up with this totally new idea for our offense. I call it, 'Six Seconds or Less...' "

Horny's a good coach. We are lucky to have found him.

Re: Around the League: September
I agree that they probably have enough young guys, but good draft picks are still assets that they could use to upgrade later if needed. They need to figure out what they have, who can be a part of their long-term future, and so on. For example, is Bennett going to be a capable NBA player? Is Rubio ...

Re: Bill Simmons suspended by ESPN.
Yeah, I wonder whether ESPN got a call from somebody high up at the NFL who was pissed to have such an influential blogger/podcaster ripping on their commissioner. But, lesson learned: Don't ever directly challenge your employer to come at you, because they just might.

Re: Around the League: September
I think the Wolves will not win a lot of games and will definitely not make the playoffs, but they have a bright future. It's probably the best thing for them to be bad for a while to rebuild and reduce expectations / pressure on their young guys while getting good draft picks.

Re: Phoenix Suns 2014-2015 Season Expectations
What troubles me is the Western Conference in general. We won 48 games and missed the playoffs, and it's not like a bunch of teams have fallen off. Dallas got better on paper with Parson and Tyson Chandler, the Rockets replaced Parsons with Ariza. You know the Spurs, Clips, Thunder will be there. T...

Re: Phoenix Suns 2014-2015 Season Expectations
I think we are slightly better. I think we will make the playoffs as a bottom seed. I think PJ Tucker is gone in mid season or sooner. Maybe Green too, sadly. I am okay with our wobbly front court because we have to see what Morris and Plumlee/Len can give us. If those guys mature and improve, we co...

Re: Morris twins extention
Now that I've seen the money for each specific Morris twin, I think the extensions are a bit high but okay overall. I think contracts are about to balloon way up in the NBA and that we're all just going to need a year or two to get used to it. Marcus gets a little overpaid there, but if Markieff kee...

If you see Tolliver getting minutes at center, you know something went wrong.

Re: Morris twins extention
I just hope we don't overpay therm. Marcus Morris honestly isn't a very special player, and i look at this pair of extensions as being about locking up Markieff, not Marcus.

Re: Eric Bledsoe agrees to 5 year, 70 Million Contract Exten
I think this season's success depends on two people, Plumlee and Len. We have 2 really good defenders on the wings now. We really need rim protection in the worst way. That would enable those guys to gamble just a little bit more on the wings. I wouldn't be adverse to moving assets for a guy like S...

Re: Bill Simmons suspended by ESPN.
He has been paying photos of himself on Instagram out having fun with friends and family during the suspension. He doesn't caption them or just puts "." Under them. I think he's pissed.

Haha, Robot, I could actually picture an article like that being posted on lebronJames.com.
I wonder what percentage of Bled's contract goes to Paul?
