Dress up as a prison phone.
Tom Gores' Securus faced a class action lawsuit in 2024. The company engaged in a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with county jails in Michigan which banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls.

It's being advertised specifically as the 1989 team. Seems like the 1990 team should be who gets celebrated on March 30, since we're playing against Portland.

They probably don’t want Rick Mahorn to feel left out.

Monta Ellis trade that brought them Bogut and eventually started the Curry era of the NBA.
In hindsight it was the dumbest booing in modern history, but fans are vapid and irrational so you can't blame them.

Re: PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO BOO TOM GORES
I really don't get the Gores hate. He has mostly been hands off when it comes to roster moves. The only story I remember is him not wanting to trade Drummond and that was a smart veto. He has invested a lot of time, effort, and money trying to bring this franchise back into prominence. Yeah he's coked up and drunk most of the time but I don't care about any of that stuff. I just want him to invest in a winning a team and be willing to pay when we are competitive, which he has stated he would do before. We just need to get to that point, hopefully this offseason.

Agree with the above. Honestly if he allows a competent GM to do their job without a lot of meddling then we could be a lot worse off.

Re: PERFECT OPPORTUNITY TO BOO TOM GORES
I wouldn't pay money to boo anyone. Spending money to go exercise a wasted emotion? Screw that. If I'm going to waste money there had better be women involved. Preferably less than fully clothed.
