https://www.gofundme.com/f/we-appreciate-you-comissioner


For those of you who want to send bish a gesture...donation...cup of coffee...etc this was set up a couple of years ago...
You can pay it anominously - if thats not enough privacy- send the money to a GM you trust and they can deposit it...
If that doesn't work then set up one yourself and transfer it to bish...

This current gofund me has already been transfered to Bish...He gets every penny...and the current total you see probably
spans over 2-3 years of donations...You are welcome to check it yourself...

Bish is the type of person that does things from his heart and will never ask for anything - nor does he need it...
Nonetheless, I can't sit here and watch this man do all of this work and not suggest to my baf peers to send him a couple cups of coffee every year as a show of acknowledgement and appreciation...

He's going to pm me and tell me - I asked you not to do this...Sorry Bish- I've waited and waited and havent heard or seen anything
so I had to do it :D Please dont get mad at me...

If you are unable to send anything due to financial difficulties-we've all been there - please do not take this as "shaming", judgement or whatever negative phrase that may come to your mind...

I am posting this as a reminder to those that are interested or those who didn't know or those that may have forgotten and need a friendly reminder of the option...

now back to BAF!

the game we all love!

I'd have let FVV walk too but I'm not that high on him.

Where I critique Ujiri lately is he needs to wheel and deal more before his guys hit the market. It feels like he's looking for another "Knicks Trade" and we're just not here like that anymore. Notwithstanding the Gobert trade, the league has gotten smarter most of the time.

What you mean indy shouldn't give up Haliburton for siakam or atlanta shouldn't give up Trae for siakam?

Cade Cunningham, Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren, Jalen Green, Keegan Murray On U.S. Select Team
JUL 20, 2023 12:53 PM


Cade Cunningham, Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren, Jalen Green and Keegan Murray are among the players that will join Team USA for training camp in Las Vegas. They will play on the U.S. Select Team as the Senior Team prepares for the FIBA World Cup.

The U.S. Select Team will be coached by Jamahl Mosley of the Orlando Magic.

Team USA has not formally announced its Select Team, which will include as many as 12 players. They will also be eligible to travel with the Senior Team to the Philippines and serve as a replacement if an injury occurs before the start of the Cup.


congrats GM's :D
