Shumpert has been a good defender here and there but he has a hard time staying consistent with it. I guess as pickups go that's probably one of the better ones unless some people we don't expect get bought out in a month or two.

He's not active but there was a guy from Lansing named Earvin Johnson who was pretty good. I don't think he ever rapped though (thankfully).

I'm a small petty man but I get tremendous satisfaction seeing hedge fund dude bro get left out in the cold after Seattle people kept raving about what a great ownership group he put together and how the league really wants to bring them into the fold

Also seeing David Stern dunk on that Chris Daniels guy

Yeah its really weird. The optics are just weird because I get the NBA I guess waiting to see how it worked out in the Minnesota Courts but yeah he's going to serve up to 120 days once this season is over. This was announced back in December though...so why now hand down a 12 game suspension? And why 12? Its just weird.

Adam Malamut, the cocreator of the Bleacher Report series Game of Zones, appeared on the Rejecting the Screen podcast this week and told hosts Adam Stanco and Noah Coslov about Dolan’s response to the May 2018 episode titled “Poorzingis.” (Thanks to the New York Daily News for digging up the anecdote.)

Bleacher Report is owned by Turner, which is one of the NBA’s most important business partners. But still, people in the league office didn’t have a problem with the long-running NBA-themed Game of Thrones spoof. Well, “with the exception of one particular owner of the Knicks,” Malamut said.

In the Knicks-themed episode, Walt Frazier sits beside a bed-ridden Kristaps Porziņģis (who was recovering from a torn ACL at the time the video was released).

“Oh, my sweet Latvian child, what do you know about fair?” Frazier says. “Fair is for the elders, who’ve suffered through the entire reign of James Dolan. Fans are born and live and die, all without seeing a playoff win or decent draft pick.”

Dolan later enters the room to cheer up Porziņģis with a song—a medieval version of “Better Find a Church,” by Dolan’s band, JD & the Straight Shot—that makes a few references to Dolan’s predilection for handing out poor contracts. It’s nothing too offensive.

And yet Dolan was apparently ticked off enough that he went straight to Adam Silver to complain. Malamut said he didn’t feel comfortable telling the whole story, but he gave an abbreviated version.

“He wasn’t thrilled with it. He let Adam Silver know, who let the president of all of Turner know,” Malamut said. “To us that was pretty cool. What we know is that Adam Silver himself, he’s super cool. They like Game of Zones there. ... The league is cool with it, but technically they work for the owners and when [Dolan] complains they have to technically let us know that he wasn’t cool with it. Everyone else was like, ‘Meh, that’s just this particular guy. He’s a little fussy.’”
