I don’t know about calling it correct. What players do today is perfectly legal

Honestly, I think a lot of it is that some of us were products of the 90's game and to us, that IS the correct way to do things and how things done now would be called for traveling. I blame a lot of it on the euro game lol

They did change the rules…do we still got any people upset that they added a 3 point shot?

The 3-point shot has been around since 1961 [it was used for years in the ABL, ABA and Eastern League/CBA before the NBA gave in]. The emphasis on it recently has probably been the biggest change in style of play other than the addition of the shot clock.

The difference however is that we're talking about a rule change vs. a change in the application of a rule (or even a "point of emphasis").

Dillon Brooks all star hopes still alive

I saw that, WW.

I wonder if Dillon Brooks has a chance to replace him or if the NBA will choose another player.

Probably Sengun gets in first

Brooks was probably right there to be picked, and then he did whatever that was on national TV last night.

The shove? I'm not sure exactly what you're talking about. Oh, I get it. Just his overall stinker of a game. Never mind. Amazing comeback when you factor that in.

Yeah, I just meant that, after the first quarter, he spent the rest of the game doing his best emulation of Michael Scott playing basketball on the first season of The Office.

Just popping up amidst all the trade stuff is this random moment
Hayes never strikes me as too smart but like seriously....
This is so confusing

Yeah, I wish he could be more consistent. He seemed aloof in this one. I'm sure it's hard to keep up the villain persona at all times.

Yeah, just kind of weird, huh? Him and the Lopez brothers apparently have a fear of mascots or something.

You’ll have to explain this one to me. I don’t know the exact wording of the rule.

I’d always thought the Lopez twin’s thing with mascots was an ongoing skit.

I watched the Jordan video and it looked to me like he was skipping (traveling) and palming the ball (holding it for multiple steps).
