Around the NBA 12

knicks ending was fun to watch. I didn't notice at first but in the final play it was originally Batum defending devincenzo, he literally sits that final sequence out allowing the wide open attempt

The combination of Batum, Oubre, Lowry and to a lesser extent Embiid makes me hope Philly get bounced.

the all hornets pod interview with terrence oglesby that dropped today is fantastic. he's awesome. he says a lot of interesting stuff
- hints at mj being cheap
- high praise for ashley, says she's in high demand
- makes numerous comments about melo, that if you read between lines sounds like frustration with melo not being willing to play through any pain, questions toughness, talks about melo needing to do his job and show up, lack of leadership, inability to play more that 60 gms
- talks about draft and how this team really needs more culture setters, hard workers, glue guys, has high praise for reed

None of that is surprising information

yeah but refreshing to hear it being said by people connected to club. terrence is very open/honest
he also speculates lee is the guy

The stuff about Melo is concerning, but not unexpected.

Teams shouldn't just give out max contracts to guys coming off their rookie deals. We're probably going to regret that Melo contract.

there were more than just hints lol, i'm only 14 minutes into this pod and he's already directly said Jordan was unwilling to spend and "they need a new training staff", and the stuff about LaMelo (tied in with the training staff stuff) is about as direct a statement as it gets.

Is that guy the radio guy or does he just do the pre-Q4 breakdown? Not sure who he is.

do what? do they not show ashley and terrence on the bally app?
he's the other studio/desk host with ashley pregame, halftime, between 3/4 quarter and post game wrap up.
he's by far the best person we've had in that role... ever.

Ah, I pretty much much always watch on delay and skip over those segments, didn't realize there were so many. Knew the 3/4 because they always get me with that one when I'm trying to skip to Q4

well... same. i never watch live.
regardless terrence is good. he's a straight shooter, no bs.

DaBaby really fell off. Dude was at the top for the most streaming rappers. He killed his career by offending the gay community smh.

Now he's barely hanging on to relevancy.

It won’t happen but this is suspension worthy imo

Read on Twitter

?s=46

Just by the fact it caused injury.

Thats a normal play for Draymond. I seen Draymond do much worst without any suspension.

Embiid is not a repeat offender so nothing will happen especially in a playoff series.

Post #717 » by **Diop** » Fri Apr 26, 2024 5:47 am

Draymond is a good example of why they should do something, he just kept getting worse

Evan Mobley has been super disappointing. Thought he was the next big thing.

Garland too has taken a big step back. Won't get near the same return as they would have two years ago on both those guys

Post #719 » by **yosemiteben** » Sat Apr 27, 2024 8:40 pm

Truly wild that we made that trade with OKC for a guy that has yet to score in the playoffs

Post #720 » by **JDR720** » Sat Apr 27, 2024 9:37 pm

Not only that, he doesn't even play much. He's averaged 17minutes per game and 5pts for them.

They traded us Mann and Micic for another bench warmer.
