You can't blame losing by 40 on refball.

oh I was trying to put emphasis on whatever the :censored: that guys name is. "Wyc Grousbeck"

1 minute ago, who do you think said:

The only explanation I can think of for that is Wyc Grousbeck ordered them to throw the game so he could get another Finals game at home and all the revenue that comes with it. One of the few interesting anecdotes from Prime Time to Hang Time (or whatever it was called) was that Jerry Buss was supposedly pissed at Pat Riley one year for winning the Finals too quickly instead of bringing the series back to the Forum, costing him money.

Lol

Dan Hurley will remain at UConn and not coach the Lakers.

Nobody who says they’d watch if they lowered the rims would actually watch. They’d just shift criticism to their dunks not being as spectacular/athletic as the men. Every basketball gym in the country’s hoops are 10 feet. That’s what basketball is. 
 

Plus, in the age of Steph Curry, people shooting from 30+ is just as much a draw as dunking, and a damn big reason why Caitlin Clark is as popular as she is. 

I'm somebody who'd love to see these ladies in the wnba dunk. #lowertherim

Washington- White honoring Joe Biden winning 2024 election

 

WTF?  can you see into the future? and I doubt the NBA would do anything as political as that

Not sure why Nike dropped the "Earned" editions. I'd like to see them return.

 

So for next season's City edition (Guessing)

 

Boston- Dark Green w/Lime trim honoring Paul Pierce

Philadelphia- White Fauxback honoring 1983 Team

Washington- White honoring Joe Biden winning 2024 election

San Antone- Gray honoring Country/Western Culture

Golden State- Navy honoring Oakland Coliseum

Lakers- Purple honoring James Worthy

 

 

 

 

How would the Lakers wearing their actual colors "honor" James worthy? unless Im mistaken I don't see how you can come to that conclusion

Jokic can now tell Ant to "bring ya ass" to Cancun  but the T-Wolves will be back 

There was nothing wrong with these.

RIP Bill Walton

I'm not saying the "next MJ" hype is legitimate, but it's a pretty weak take to dismiss it based upon his recent slump. 

 

Ant is 22. MJ didn't make it to a conference finals until he was 26, when he rand head-long into a prolific Detroit Pistons team. He didn't win a title until he was 28. 

 

This might not be Ant's year, but it's coming.  

Ant being in the conference finals at 22 is because he's on a stacked team with a 4x DPOY, 6th man of the year, 4x all-star and coach of the year. you don't think Mj would have done the same if had that talent behind him?

MJ & LeBron are their own forces of nature. 

to be fair, I know most of the "next mj" discourse is just because ant kinda looks like mj

"the next mj" yeah right

I see the longstanding policy of "all prime time Chiefs games MUST be at Arrowhead" is still in place...

to be fair, that's normal for defending champs

Ravens vs Chiefs will be the Thursday Sept. 5 season opener!

Football Team is so stupid. It's not actually a nickname and people joke about it all the time. No thanks.

I agree, seriously can't comprehend how people think that could be the full time name for Washington, so ridiculous 

Just now, ptay said:

 

You really think the NFL would have a team named the Warthogs? 

Why wouldn't they? It would be better than commanders, or "football team"

I am absolutely not from Houston and can't speak for anyone, but I find it extremely hard to believe that the Titans just wanted to do a tribute to the Oilers by choosing to wear the throwbacks against Houston. The closest comparison I have to this situation is the Carolina Hurricanes wearing Whalers throwbacks, which Connecticut residents are pretty much universally pissed about. It really does feel like a shallow cash grab that's disrespectful towards the previous city to me, and I know I'm not alone in that sentiment.

Thing is, the Houston Oilers became the Tennessee Titans, despite the move it's considered the same franchise (they wore AFL throwbacks in 2009). If the Titans shouldn't wear Oiler unis, then who should?
