OFFICIAL AROUND THE NBA: MAY 2023

[blazerkor]

I'm sure Steph does some nice things as a philanthropist but he is very obviously a self entitled second generation professional athlete. None of those guys should even be considered for this type of award when there are so many in the league that have suffered through so much social injustice while growing up in situations Steph can only imagine.

Way to go Blazers Edge. You're a full day late in posting this.

The NBA is finally, maybe cracking down on flopping with new rule

Could be implemented as soon as this Summer League..

This doesn't change my already low respect level for Curry off the court, but I wonder if Bill Gates or Warren Buffet would react any different? Even living in his childhood home, I doubt Buffet wants to see the neighborhood go that direction.

Classic NIMBY behavior.

Probably got arrested for not having an undershirt on. Like c'mon bro.

 

[Chris Craig]

He needs to give the award back. To good for low income people to live near him. What classist bullshit. That guy has never known strife or struggle.

unfortunately, I know exactly where that is.

76ers hired Nurse.

[Propagandist]

Glad the Blazers didn't hire her.

But it was ridiculous how some fans didn't want to hire her because she was women, just as ridiculous as some fans wanting to hire her because she is a women.

Let the best candidate get the job, if its a women then hire her, if its a man hire him, if the person is black, or white, or Asian, or straight, or gay, or whatever attribute just hire the person with the best ability to teach and win games.

That being said, we hired Billups, clearly not the best candidate on any level.

Rumor was that the owner was not happy that they dealt Wiseman, and then this tool tried to cover it up by throwing us under the bus.

From the outside, that situation was certainly handled very poorly.

It was very Neil Olsheyian.

It was very Neil Olsheyian.

I don't know that word, but I don't feel like it's a compliment!

I ran "It's just time" through Google's NBA Doublespeak to English translator and got, "I'm quitting before the owner fires my ass".

I think we need @calvin natt 's opinion on this?

100%

Blowing the second pick in the draft and then it sounded like he moved Wiseman without talking to the owner first. The funny thing is that Neil made ALL KINDS of mistakes that were as bad or worse, and he never got us a ring.

He and Myers are buddies if I recall

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Some speculation this would happen as Myers promised Klay an extension so now the organization can walk back from that.

Klay is still a great shooter and can get hot - but he's not close to the lock up defender that made him an elite two way player in his prime.

 

[Natebishop3]

They have a joint membership at the tanning salon.

Ewwww no.

is it Olsheyian or Olsheyesque?
