Basketball is the only sport where the draft has 1-2 elite guys and we know who they are. That kinda hurts when the league is scripting who they want to get the top picks.

I’m down for this

The new cap rules make it more difficult to simply outspend and create super teams, actually. We are in the infancy of the impacts but most observers expect there to be somewhat of a shift in league behaviors.

That and the lack of a hard salary cap makes the league an absolute joke.

I sorta hope we go with Moehrig and Ransom--veteran and rookie. I also think they are somewhat high on Richardson. We re-signed Scott to an minimal, non-guaranteed contract for insurance. We have 3 UDFA safeties on the roster. I think THEY THINK we are set.

Well the league average from behind the arc was absolutely abysmal in the 80's and most of the 90's. That's literally why you remember it that way. Stats nerds in the 2000's led to a big increase in volume but the overall shooting percentages from behind the arc have steadily risen over time. That's the biggest individual difference between those eras. The players now on average are insanely more talented than they were then. At the superstar level, they have been relatively static but the average roster/role player is head and shoulders better. To an extent, it has made the game "boring" because it's not really rare to see good perimeter shooters. It's common.

I don’t really dislike the current game of shooting 3s and fast breaks. I mostly just hate the coin flip on a nightly basis of whether or not a team will try to win. Seemed like even the hornets were indifferent about winning certain games even early on in the season. What are we doing here? If they don’t care why should we?

Reggie Miller is still 6th all time in 3s made and never won poo playing in the 90s. All this 3 point shooting bullshit was not flying in the 90s game. The NBA is a joke now.

It would still be Mahomes or Lamar. If you can't include QBs then you go coach

This is a very unique person. I pull for him.

I've tried, but its still happening. At least the games I've tried to watch. The product is still atrocious. Yeah, the NHL all star game is bad. I do enjoy the skills challenge tho

The nba in season tournament consisted of regular season games that counted. Not really the same thing. I agree the all star games are stupid.

Yes, but that was how they accomplished it. They made it MEAN something. Have you ever seen an NHL All Star game? It's fuging unwatchable.

The 4 countries tournament was one of the greatest sporting events I've ever seen in pro sports of any genre. It had no bearing on the season but those guys played playoff level hockey for an exhibition.

The traveling is ludicrous. They need to fix that. The flopping has been cleaned up for a while because they had to start suspending players over it. This is literally years old, which tells me you haven't watched in a long time.

I mean....the NHL just did this too. The NFL turned the Pro Bowl into just a series of games. The MLB had to make some playoff implications for the All Star winners. All the sports had to do this because ultimately it doesn't make sense to try hard for exhibitions that are utterly meaningless.

It's almost sickening to watch games now. How many steps constitute traveling? 3, 7, 15? And the flopping is ridiculous. I thought Vlade Divac was bad, but now they're right up there with soccer. No defense. Everyone is tossing up 3s. The product is terrible. PK Subban summed up the NBA and fan experience pretty well.

Dude, if the Dallas Mavericks somehow magically ending up with the top overall pick, isn’t one of the clearest signs of it being rigged that I’ve ever seen. I don’t know what is. like nobody is actually believing this right?

Lol I looked right over that game. You're right that would be it

That's honestly a better question. If you could take one player OR coach, who would it be?

𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: Ravens safety Ar'Darius Washington has torn his Achilles, an MRI confirmed, per @RapSheet He will be out for the 2025 season. that market might be a little tighter now….

It would Lions-Vikings if this is real. 2 playoff teams, division rivals.

I mean....CMC was here with Cam and DJ for a spell. This would currently be the worst roster he has ever been on in his NFL career by a massive margin.

$30 is alot for just ESPN
