Fac, you’re truly a GENIUS

I mean, how do you come up with...

Painted hemorrhoid

Slippery turd
Self proclaimed scorpion
Drowned, squished or otherwise dismembered
                 And last but not least ...
...managed to combine the most embarrassing... aspects of Isiah Thomas and Phool Jackson’s Knicks tenures... without achieving nearly as much WINNING

ALL IN A SINGLE POST?

Only one answer:

PURE GENIUS

PS. The color is not for the orange and blue. It’s for the paint color in painted hemorrhoid.

Horse shit article on Edwards

https://www.nbadraft.net/situational-analysis-anthony-edwards/

Too cruel or too kind?

The former, of course.

But I have only seen Edwards a few times - we'll see.

Isola on radio today saying NBA should have gone with just sixteen teams - that there was no need for Suns and Wizards, etc.  to be there.

I like the setup.  Race to stay out of the 8/9 scenario in East.  Race to make sure you are in top 9 in West.

Can Suns leap frog 4 teams?  Could Memphis (3 game lead on many teams) choke their way out o playoffs?

Trump has managed to combine the most embarrassing and disturbing aspects of Isiah Thomas’s and Phil Jackson’s Knicks tenures in a far more important job without achieving nearly as much winning.

The Juneteenth June 20th rally in Tulsa will be the whipped topping on his idiocy presidency.

20,000 maskless white racists jammed together in a hot arena screaming and frothing in a viral particulate spreading frenzy — even as Oklahoma reports record high COVID-19 cases.

heh....

Zak Low preferred 20 teams, opining that PHX and WAS were unnecessary.
Seems the proposal has each team with 35 personnel.  Of that, teams can have 15-17 players (so there are built-in replacements if anyone gets ill).
If that's right, then that equals 770 team members.  And an extra thousand plus to run things.  So they are talking 2000 people total.

I was trying to keep numbers down and teams down (16).  But the NBA wants more games to get more money.  Meaning more people involved.
Still a fair chance this scheme falls apart.  Though I assume most NBA players feel they are healthy and invincible, and want to get paid as close to their full salary as possible.

Edwards does not know enough basketball to be made the man on day one. Taking that into account, what are you getting if he never knows much more basketball than he does now, which is something that happens?

I think you are still getting a solid off-guard/wing, someone who’d look good with Steph or Trae giving him his opportunities.

I have Edwards just behind Ball and Hayes for us and behind Okongwu, about even with Deni, and just ahead of Haliburton and Vassell.

Too much time has gone by already between March and today, let alone late July.

Restarting in late july with no fans = glorified summer league.

I will probably watch.  ... because what else is there? .... but I won't watch with as much enthusiasm.

I may even be bored enough to just tune in for the final few minutes.

Like, is anyone going to really thump their chest as 2020 champion?

All momentum is lost.

The right thing to do is CANCEL THE SEASON.

Focus on health, focus on making the world a better place.

Nobody cares who will win the 2020 chip.

Well.....  maybe .000006% of the population will care.

The Washington Nationals winning the World Series in 2019 vs the Houston Cheaters and The KC Chiefs coming back to win the SB after trailing in the 1st halves of every game.... those were some damn good games with well deserved victors.  Whatever the NBA puts out as its winning product will pale in comparison.

What is the player replacement pool? How will that be handled in terms of team salary and cap, assuming the roster spot gets treated as open?

That was my feeling when they shut it down. Things have gone a bit worse than I expected by just about every metric, thanks to Putin’s girdled leprosy, the offal in the Oval, pisster trump, so I agree even more strongly today.

Ah, that good old Kyrie leadership.

Still say Knix got lucky and dodged a bullet by missing out on Kyrie & Durant.

I assume the fact that they are under contract already means they can't form their own league.

I basically agree-sure if they resume, I'll root for the Celts, but no matter what, this season carries either a period, prematurely ending the season, or and asterisk pointing out the counterfeit currency.

But it seems the NBA is making plans to tip-off July 30th*

The NBA has just released its 113-page guidelines for reopening its seaon in Orlando-Disneyworld. I haven't read it, but saw the highlights of it, and its a sobering thought the NBA has a more detailed science-based plan about resuming the sport, than the Trump Admininistration has about safely reopening the US.
