Well there you have it, most incompenetent organization of all time. Clearly, they lied to us, and thought we were idiots. Trying to pull one over on us at the start of the season, saying there was no issue.

Infuriating. That's why they got fined though. They didn't disclose the actual injury and Shams said there was swelling early, but dealing with it throughout the year means he's injured and maybe should consider another cleanup or something. He'd not been playing, so why else is there swelling.

What's worse, why offer him an extension? Paying him 70 million at the end of it? Malpractice

I thought the standard for a tech in Adam Silver's NBA was waving a towel from the bench?

Thing is, nobody is scared of Jokic and his loser brothers. Ref didn't even flinch.

Don’t you think Joel has something to do with this as well?

Plus Jokic was clearly flopping, no extension or force from Lively, Jokic was trying to steal points

A legit 3-level scorer with that kind of court vision, wow. I've said it before, but if I was starting a team today, Wagner would be my first pick to build around.

Hysterical, and exactly what is to be expected from Nick Young.

Honestly, Gilbert creating a podcast full of all the NBA circus acts of the past, present, and future is an innovation of the space.

If someone offered you a top 10-15 pick in next year's draft right now, are you making the trade?

Nicholas Nurse just needs to let Jared get into rhythm early whenever he comes into the games. It's EXTREMELY difficult to consistently be effective offensively off ball. I feel like Jared gets his shooting going after he gets his playmaking and scoring going... Give him a few possessions to start off the offense instead of just running the offense and I think it will help.
