Mr. Richardson praised by fellow owners re: pending CBA

Haha black you're funny.

Just telling it like it is with no bias.

The owners got more money out of the cba then the last. Its pretty fuking simple.

Did they? The split might be a couple more percent towards the owners for revenue intake, but from what I've seen, they are going to pay out more on benefits and what not.

Also, the cap minimums are MUCH higher... so players will by default see more money.

And I'm telling it like it is without bias too. Why would I have any bias for the owners?

There is no CBA, yet. There also has been no change in who holds the power. The owners have held it since the start and Takeo Spikes can say "the players aren't responsible to meet any deadline" on sportscenter all he wants but nobody is buying it.

This has nothing to do with the media or the owners "pulling a fast one" as some are saying and even more are believing. This is a result of the players having poor leadership and an inflated sense of their chip stack.

2% of billions and billions of dollars is still lots of monayyy.

And you liking the new transformers movie automatically puts you in bias mode

;)

:smilielol5:

That really made you mad didn't it.

Salty... you're still my favorite mod, even though you're the only one to have ever given me an infraction.

Want a hug?

(by the way, the response on that movie was more about my RL friend being an ass about it, than your opinion)

    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
