Around the League: The Offseason

[carey]

Did you see that Croatia kicked Dragan Bender off the U19 team because he had an exclusive contract with Adidas and apparently Nike has a deal with the Croatian team that says all the players must wear Jordan's. He refused to wear them (and I guess legally can't?) so he won't be playing. The kid is good. I think he would have been a lottery pick this year. Certainly next year's Porzingis.

Saw that earlier. No worse than Zach Lavine's "fuck" last year.

That's at their press conference? Yeah, I'd say that's worse.

Nobody wants to go to Philly. They just drafted like 5 centers and have no PG.

I don't know man. Blurting out "fuck" on camera when you're selected by the T'Wolves is pretty bad. He can explain this one away by something or other I'm sure.

That Bosh/Gogi PnR next year is gonna be goooood.

Good find, Split. It's pretty amazing what the difference in perception is without those first couple of seconds.

Indeed & from a different angle.

I always thought it was waaaaayyyy overblown and probably nothing at all. Doesn't make the first angle any less funny to me.

The Kings just love making all the right moves.

Yeah, what an endorsement for the job must be the Karl's situation. "I offer you total control, as long as you don't alienate key players or piss off the owner..."

Sometimes you know right away you made a big mistake. There is no point in prolonging the agony. I once fired a teacher two months into the school year. If you know its bad, you cannot wait act.
