Around the NBA: 2020-21 Season

[Dresden]

Anybody else really hate what Nike has done with the uniforms? Each team has like 100 different jerseys now and a lot of them are awful. I saw today's Celtics jerseys and it looks like something you'd see in Summer League. I also miss the days where white was at home and your away and alternate were for away games, minus a few exceptions.

I am quoting this because a single +1 isn't enough for how much I agree with it. Nike is a good company, I can't understand how they managed to **** this up so badly.

Yeah, they're a great company aside from the fact that they use sweatshops and child labor to make their products. But it's the same for all apparel companies.

[MrSparkle]

Wizards beat BRK last night. So maybe they aren't as bad as we thought they were.

Yeah. They should be in the play-in mix.

My takeaway from the second Bulls W was that Westbrook really wanted to win that game. It was a good win.

Absolutely not saying you're wrong nor that this is morally acceptable, but you do know that's the case for most companies in most manufacturer and tech businesses, right?

No, that doesn't make it right. Especially for companies as rich and successful as Nike.

True enough. And perhaps Brooklyn isn't as good as people thought, given how many comments I read after Christmas Day about how they were the clear Eastern favorite. The Nets have gone 1-4 since then.

I don't understand all the hype about them. Yes, two superstar scorers. But do they have enough around them?

[Dresden]

Bagley sounds like he wants out of Sacto- or at least Bagley's dad wants him out. I'd give them a call and see if we could offer them Wendell plus, I don't know, a second round pick, or maybe Hutch for him. I think he's got a ton of upside, although his injuries are worrisome.

No. Bad intangibles and not that talented.

[ZOMG]

What is it with these Duke boys? Wendell's mom had public beef with Coach K because he "ruined" her baby's chance at stardom (yeah, as if) by bringing in Bagley... and Bagley's dad still seems to be a god damn helicopter parent even though his son will be 22 in a few months.

I doubt there's any real trade request, it's just his dad blaming the Kings for his son playing terribly. Always blame the coaches, not the players.

[Dresden]

Yeah, I don't know what the real story is with Bagley and SAC, but I do know this is one way you can scoop up a very talented young player at a discount- when a team wants to unload him due to chemistry problems with the rest of the team. I believe strongly in Bagley, he's still very young, and this would be a great chance for the Bulls to bolster their talent level.

I'll take Bags for Marks.

I'll take Bags for Marks.

Then Bags and Carter can pretend they are at Duke again! Awe!

Ha yes. Follow-up with a Grayson Allen trade and we just might have to put GarPax back at the helm.

[MrSparkle]

Man, the Knicks really look like a solid team. How about that Thibs fella? Randle's becoming an all-star at this rate.

[DASMACKDOWN]

Thibs is back at it by overplaying his key guys. But he proves it works in the regular season. Knicks are doing well. It felt like they were bout to blow that game. Felt like watching us play down the stretch lol

[Grodoboldo]

I love Thibs.

That is all.

[DASMACKDOWN]

Is Toronto actually worse this year or they are just in a tough part of schedule?

1-5 No big deal or something going on?

Siakam is a head case.
