So the Sixers are allowed to drop the last 15 games on their schedule and the NBA won't do anything about it?

Probably because of this same conspiracy theory. They pivoted and then years later Orlando drafted Shaq and Chris Webber.

Stern and Silver derailed a federal investigation into NBA refs gambling. I enjoy watching the league but I really don't think this is on the up and up.

I just hate Indy more. At least the Lakers don't have a long history with the Knicks like the Pacers do.

I hate them equally, why couldn't they both lose?

We should all be rooting for the Pacers to take that 3rd seed IMO. Falling to the 4th seed would increase the pressure on the FO by a lot to make a substantial change at the coaching position. Getting the 3rd seed and losing to the title favorites and champs is going to give the FO every excuse to keep Thibs around.

The only guy I've seen Windy really go after in public was Luka, and the criticism was warranted because he needed to mature after that.

I have no idea where the stuff about LeBron and Windy being friends came from though but I always assumed that Windy was a mouthpiece for LeBron but I guess not.

Either way. Oof. That was mean :lol:

I don't have confidence in a 4 v 5 match up with Detroit based on how poorly this team is coached and prepared.

We all have differing opinions on Tom but I have no confidence in him after everything we've seen this year.

Windbag road his coat tails out of high school and into a successful career. Playing off his "relationship" with LeBron. That's what those comments tell me. Without LeBron there would never be a Windbag.
