I would assume so too. I was thinking the same thing. I have no idea, though.

I was wondering more about the addressee. Curious who might actually read them.

You can put Attn: General Manager Ryan McDonagh or whatever you want on the envelope, but my guess is it will be read and handled by a secretary.

Although, back in the day, I did exchange a few emails with Bryan Colangelo when he was GM and got thoughtful responses. His email address was bcolangelo@awarena.com, which I simply guessed.

I've sent some letters to Sarver and others in the past and his secretary called me back. They were very accommodating.

That's why sometimes it's worth paying a guy like Frye. You can't let the inmates run the asylum. Knight I think is a step in the right direction. He's grown a lot, especially in Milwaukee. The Morris Bros and PJ gotta go. Can't have them infecting Archie, TJ and Len.

I don't get the NBA and their ideas how fines should be assessed. They are saying that Len started the fight, so he is going to get a larger fine. It looked like Whiteside started it, but intentionally falling on him twice after dunks. Hell, he went out of his way to do it in a punk move. I don't get it. I hope someone can explain this a little more clearly.

I don't know why "PJ's got to go". He's one of the very few who bring it every night. He leads by example.

Are you serious? Where did you read this. It was obviously Whiteside who intentionally collared Len.

"NEW YORK -- Phoenix Suns center Alex Len has been fined $20,000 for initiating an altercation with Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside and attempting to take him to the floor.

Whiteside has been fined $15,000 for escalating the incident by wrestling Len to the floor during Monday's game at Miami."

I didn't get it either. Also, if Whiteside doesn't tackle Len, is Len even getting fined?

WTF. Len participated for sure, but Whiteside is the one who busted out the MMA shit and tackled our guy. Total BS.

The NBA is telling everyone that if you dunk the ball as a big, make sure that you swing around and land on the other big in a disrespectful way, because they can't do anything about it without getting fined.

Hard to believe that push off by Len merited a $20,000 fine. I would think that if a guy is hanging on you, even inadvertantly, you could push him away. Wow.
