It really is the doldrums of the off-season. Let a dude wear what he wants to wear. At least let's please keep the undertones of homophobia off the board when asserting personal opinions on what someone else chooses to wear.

The NBA Board of Governors has approved two rules changes that will take effect next season.

The rules are a second coach's challenge if the first one is successful and an in-game flopping penalty.

Coaches having access to a second challenge is something that teams have been lobbying for over the past few years. If a team gets a challenge correct, they'll have a chance for a second one. Teams will not get their timeout back if their second challenge is successful.

When a referee calls a flop, there will be a non-sportsmanlike technical foul called on the offending players' team


Good luck expecting refs to call the flopping foul especially if a player already has 1 tech, I am thinking primarily of Luka here but no way would they eject a player like him for flopping.

I am not sure about the second coaching challenge, would probably really slow down the end of games if both teams saved their 2 final challenges and they could in theory use all 4 in the closing minutes of a game.

Are people really FINDING ..... THE..... reason to be offended because we make fun of the fashions some think are ridiculous in the nba?!?! The Bron stupid shorts suit years ago people made fun of. The silly **** Westbrook wears, the stupid puffy red shoes that are popular!! Make fun of Turner and now I'm angry or homophobic...... Naaa, funny is funny, screw your agenda and projections. Everybody has things that make them uncomfortable, thats on you, keep that **** there. Posters been calling Ayton SheAndre for 2 years witch I personally find stupid, but others find it funny, so..... so be it. Get over yourself!!

Its like going to a comedy show with thousands of people and standing up to complain about the 3 or 4 jokes you dont like.... sit down and stfu!! Another round of acceptable words to you are forthcoming, I personally haven't liked plenty of jokes but respected that others did. I never equated any of it to hate, just difference of opinion.

Some talk that GSW will start Paul, Curry, Thompson, Wiggins, Green.

I would go Goodwin, Beal, Booker, Durant, Ayton.

Goodwin - Paul
Beal - Curry
Booker - Thompson
Durant - Wiggins
Ayton - Green

Think it'd suit us quite well then Curry would have to guard Beal on the other end.

Since I've only been following loosely the last few years, what's the consensus on our roster? If there is a consensus, lol.
Are we too thin? Are there concerns KD might break down? Are we deep enough/ok with what we've got going on or do we have glaring holes?

Regardless of everyone's opinion on Turner's outfit; I think his look says "Imma kill my designer for this". That's a look of contained boiling rage to me, lol

"Sheandre" has never and will never be funny or clever.

Making fun of what someone wears is fine until it comes off as making fun of it because it "looks gay".

I'm currently naked in case you guys were wondering what I'm wearing as well. Later I'll be rubbing myself in peanut butter.

Your statement should have ended with "IN MY OPINION "....... NOTED

I think Snoop Dog looks and dresses like one of my aunts from time to time too!! Doesn't mean I'm implying anything about his sexual preferences.

It looks zesty! Dude looks ridiculous and like a women going to brunch. Whats wrong with this world is people are pansies and get offended over everything. I love honesty and if I went out dressed like an idiot, i would want my friends to tell me.

In all honesty though. That outfit, sitting stance, and look. Would probably be voted 90% in a poll of 100 people if they asked "Is this guy gay"

Still not sure what Myles Turner's clothing choices and sexual orientation have to do with the Suns offseason.

Would definitely be an interesting matchup. I do think our 5th starter (especially come playoff time) will be match up dependent. I think KDB or Okogie is likely to be the 5th starter initially.

What works on the runway doesnt always fly on the bench.

someone puts on that garb they expect commentary. Fashion is often statement. Likely a calculated play by Miles. soon he’ll announce he wants to be known as a big ‘They’ rather than a big ‘man’.

Sheesh
Crazy times
Joe Public most confused.

Looks like Myles got some men feeling uncomfortable lmao that's all I'll say.

Some of y'all care a little too much.
