The Puppy Bowl posted:The Jimmy Butler Heat are so cool. Getting Embiid on board would overcome my last defenses of not rooting for them because they're the Heat. Agreed!! That Pacers Heat game yesterday was great until the end when the rest of the Pacers team became too much for Malcolm Brogdon to carry. I love Bam. He's such a cool player to watch. Spacebump posted:https://twitter.com/espn_macmahon/status/1297601498256375815 Such a dumb decision. He's 21 years old in his first playoff series. Of course he is going to be insistent on playing. Medical staff and Carlisle gotta do better than this.

It's time for a fresh start but who knows how Fresh Philly Will Get I think he gets a couple paid years if he doesn't coach, but if he does get canned and can get a new job I think the Bulls could do a lot worse.

Kemba just got his first playoff series win and he looks like he's feeling better. I'm happy for him https://twitter.com/celtics/status/1297607715401814016 Lockback posted:I think he gets a couple paid years if he doesn't coach, but if he does get canned and can get a new job I think the Bulls could do a lot worse. He seems like the type that would willingly opt out of a contract to get right back on the horse, he's probably really enraged by how this whole thing ended. I think he'd be great for the Bulls

Am I the only one who thinks they should have given teams at least a day off after game 2? The only reason I can think of not to would be to minimize days in the bubble.

I think minimizing the days in the bubble is a huge deal. Both in terms of safety and people lives being interrupted but also going into next season.

I mean isn't one of the arguments for doing this whole thing that it's safer for the players than being outside the bubble? I get that they don't want to keep them locked up for too long but rushing through it definitely increases the odds that someone gets hurt. Trying to do next season on a normal timetable just seems naive.

I think with no travel having more than 1 day off doesn't help as much as usual. Would definitely help with things like sprained ankles though. I think in general the players would rather have a tight schedule though.

a new study bible! posted:I guess that's something that's always been fun about Reddit. Like when Ken Bone did an AMA for some awful reason but he used the same account that he used to comment on a bunch of pornography. Yes, and also going into detail on how to commit auto insurance fraud etc. JackBandit posted:For some reason I love reading YouTube comments, I can’t help myself. For a while every single musical performance had 10 comments on the first page like “YOUNG PEOPLE DON’T LIKE MUSIC ANYMORE, JUSTIN BIEBER COULDN’T DO THIS”, and I just love thinking about how how self satisfied they must have felt posting that. I don’t know, there’s definitely something wrong with me.

The only all-star centers to win a championship this millennium are who? Duncan and Shaq? Ben Wallace? What I am saying is trade Embiid.

Aye Doc posted:please enjoy this video of Barkley making fun of Paul George PG-13 is the ultimate Gatorade hustler. His commercials featuring game winning shots? Well, it's like watching Jim Boylen awkwardly CGId into Scottie Pippen's famous Mr. Submarine commercial. WhyteRyce posted:Here is my explanation of why the draft is obviously rigged I haven't provided any incontrovertible or admissible evidence or a direct explanation. And I would not even if I wanted to. I would not want to make enemies with potentially over thirty billionaires (and their friends). That's just a bridge too far. These guys sign checks with fountain pens that are worth more than the average house in the US. The same goes for any incriminating evidence against national-level politicians. My point is merely that these scenarios and the idea of conspiracies over money and collusion should not be thought that outlandish. I don't see a contradiction in that as the profit motive remains intact throughout. I don't believe there's much psychological evidence of owners not wanting to maximize profit or anecdotal evidence of the same. As far as providing accurate predictions and/or internal consistency. Those are two extremely tall orders considering how things can change on the fly in a given year or two (for a host of reasons) i.e. where to send the #1 pick could change based upon what forecasting metrics the NBA was using at the time. Or the NBA could even employ a lottery within the lottery. A conspiracy would not have to be an annual event either. It could only be initiated at pivotal moments or under special circumstances. Internal consistency would also be hard to prove because the league and its rules etc. do not have consistency. They have a fluidity and have evolved so much over the years. Not to mention ownership groups and changings-of-the-guard in leadership. PS this is mostly conjecture. Probably Magic posted:Maybe Ben Simmons is better than people give him credit for. Benjamin Simmons' underratedness > Andrew Wiggins' overratedness.

Like, which championship team DIDN'T have a big man that was at least recently an all-star?

Lockback posted:But why would Butler lie about it? That's the piece that makes no sense. If Philly wanted to move on (which I don't know why they would after getting as close as possible to beating the eventual 2019 champs), why would Butler cover for them? Devil's advocate answer: mythomania or pseudologia fantastica. Personally I just like the theory that he's following the path of Andrew Cunanan. WhyteRyce posted:Owners also prefer to remain in the shadows. Now that's all I have to say about that I've got about that now if you'll excuse me I have episodes of The Benefactor and Shark Tank on my DVR I need to binge through but only after I read the NBA 3.0 interview with Vivek. I need to hurry up with that too because I need something to talk about with my date on our Uber ride to the JD and the Straight Shot concert That leaves dozens and dozens of other principal owners. I'm not getting at just only TV time or exposure anyway. I'm talking about all their business dealings and how all the owners really relate to each other behind closed doors where no phones or cameras venture. I've seen Shark Tank a decent amount and Cuban never divulges anything relevant in this regard. Even when James Dolan was trying to be candid about his sordid relationship with Harvey Weinstein in that one track he never went into much detail at all. Now many will say that that's all their business and the fans have no right to that info. And that's fine. But we shouldn't pretend that we really always know what's going on or that all these guys who've partaken in a myriad of unethical things in the open are suddenly saints and paragons of ethics when it comes to their NBA dealings. I recall a few years back most here came to the conclusion that they didn't trust PricewaterhouseCoopers running the draft lottery and also would not trust NBA owners explicitly. But when they combined their powers we were supposed to give them the implicit benefit of the doubt because the alternative was just too painful to realize and admit. Also, Tobias has a Hall of Fame Probability of 0.0%  76ers and Pacers.

brett brown is probably not getting the spurs job; as soon as he moved on he was probably not in pop’s plans anymore and it looks like he’s aggressively grooming the triumvirate of becky hammon, tim duncan, and will hardy to do some kind of head coaching by committee setup with one getting the title and the other two working as executives as well as highly paid assistantsProbably Magic posted:Maybe Ben Simmons is better than people give him credit for. he is and this thread has brain worms about him because funny meme can’t shoot even though he’s basically just a worse scoring version of the reigning nba mvp (so comfortably an all star instead of all-nba/mvp candidate) a new study bible! posted:The only all-star centers to win a championship this millennium are who? Duncan and Shaq? Ben Wallace? in addition to the people metapod mentioned, dwight howard was three games from winning a championship with the magic and dirk nowitzki spent half of his time at center (although to be fair 2013 all star tyson chandler did play at the 5 for the majority of their championship run)
