Some bad news for Seattle, Ballmer is signalling that he still wants a basketball team and doesn't really care wherequote:WSJ: You've tried a couple times to buy an NBA franchise to return a basketball team to Seattle. Are you interested in the Los Angeles Clippers, if the team goes up for sale? Apparently he's been seen sitting with Silver at a playoff game too

Super Jay Mann posted:Is it wrong for Peja to always be the first person that comes to mind when people mention "underrated" players? His post-Sacramento career was pretty lackluster. He had that one decent year in New Orleans where all he had to do was let Chris Paul set him up for open 3s, but otherwise his body fell apart. But yeah, I won't argue with that. He was a better defender than people gave him credit for and his dribble game used to be fun to watch.

Hashtag Banterzone posted:Martin would be pretty easy to move on his own. The T-Wolves would probably try to dump JJ, Budinger, Mbah a Moute and Shved first. JJ and Mbah a Moute are both expiring. Same with Shved if you don't want him. Kevin Martin is 31 year old SG with a history of not being durable and is on the books for 3 more years

He looked deep into officiating, as Flagg said, Cuban was considering a lawsuit. Yes, killing the Golden Goose. That's why Cuban didn't sue

BIZORT posted:When someone mentioned who the best coaching candidates were I was jokingly going to mention Eric Musselman because he needs the money and then his name pops up. I liked Musselman a lot, though. What happened with him in Sacramento that catapulted him from the league? Besides the DUI The Kings actually started decently that season. But they hit some adversity and the wheels just came off as the season wore on. I think he just kept yelling at the players and eventually they tuned him out. He certainly wasn't any more disastrous than any of the coaches that followed him.

McLemore was pretty bad for the majority of the season, but he put up some good showings in that final month of the season once he figured out he should settle down. Ray was also surprisingly good for us once Jimmer got cut.

Did Tony Parker pick Nick Fury because he was still wearing his eye patch and needed a costume to match?

Is it fair to say that an average NBA caliber Euro 'understands' basketball better than a standard NBA guy? That seems somewhat fishy to me. Like Rudy Fernandez and Sergio Rodriguez! And Jan Vesely

Vire posted:Apparently Lance Stephenson thinks he is playing mind games with lebron. It's impressive how dumb some of the things people will say after a lost. http://nba.si.com/2014/05/25/lance-stephenson-lebron-james-trash-talk-sign-of-weakness-heat-pacers/ quote:”To me, I think it’s a sign of weakness,” Stephenson said, according to the Associated Press. ”He never used to say anything to me. I always used to be the one who said, `I’m going to do something to get you mad.’ Now he’s trying to do it to me. So I feel like it’s a weakness. I feel like I’m doing something right because I’m getting under his skin, but I’ve definitely got to keep stepping up to the plate and be more aggressive when he does that.”

Hey guys what's going on in Memphis http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports....t-fell-through/ quote:The genesis of the Joerger-Pera problems, according to league sources, dates back to last September. Pera — who fancies himself a pretty good player — challenged Tony Allen to a game of one-on-one. Allen, on Twitter, accepted. Pera, a Silicon Valley billionaire who bought a small controlling interest in the Grizzlies in 2012, poured tens of thousands of dollars into producing the matchup. He invited the media and instructed the public relations staff to issue a press release promoting the event.
