This is tame imo. I'm never one to talk a lot about new players being softer than older ones even if it is true. But people yelling about bets is hurting their feelings now? Enough to ask for league intervention? That's tough for me to take seriously.
Unless it becomes physical/threatening physical or unless its racial/sexual or about the player's family, its heckling and its apart of the game.
The public promotion of gambling is going to ruin lives and influence the game, the league should have the sense to know that these things won't happen in a vacuum. It needs to end
I agree that gambling should have never been allowed and now promoted to the extent that it is, especially in a game with the history of the NBA. But its here now. And I find the heckling reasoning that that article pushed to be the least of the concerns gambling brought in.

So many back-to-backs, likely due to in-season tournament

Brian Grant is current 250th All-Time in blocks with 561. Wemby might have him beat by the end of his sophomore season the way he is going.

I do wonder how many MVPs and Championships Wimby will end up with if he doesn't have a major injury.

Not buying the Bucks shambling right now. Conspiracy-lite in that belief, but if they fold in the first round that's different.

I thought that Naz Reid had the potential to be good, but damn if he isn't out here doing it

Naz Reid is in his 5th season and his career PER36 scoring is 20.5 pts at an efficacy of .593 TS%, so he's had the ability to score his whole time in the league but has been behind Towns, it's a head scratcher that teams haven't tried to pry him away from Minnesota, basically he just needed minutes he couldn't get because of roster construction.
