Shai not coming back
The hornets and wizards have no reason to try to be good
An asterisk season like no other!
After last night can’t even blame them lool
Sam Hinkie, it’s time.
I want the kings to get Vic because of the sheer salt it would bring lmao.
Charlotte about to load manage Lamelo Ball this year.lol
Charlotte needs to tank this upcoming season. Its legit the perfect circumstance too with the Bridges situation
Can’t wait for all the GMs to get fired and blacklisted by league and replaced with Colangelos
Isaiah Thomas, Melo, and Demarcus Cousins Big 3 coming soon
Colin Sexton: Out 3-4 months – slipped on a Banana peel
“Sam Presti was seen walking out of the Thunder locker room wielding a baseball bat”
Watch the media (including Woz) speak this into existence.
The NBA has to import a system where once you’re eliminated from the playoffs … losses count as wins, and wins count as losses
Would make games really fun down the stretch

we are getting a couple teams going over 60 wins for sure. anyone playing the rockets okc utah spurs 4 times is getting a free 16 wins. dallas might be top 3. luka getting that mvp
Joe Wieskamp averaging 40
With the flattened odds, I just don’t see it. If you are one of the bottom three or even five your odds are very similar to wind up with a top 2 pick.
As a European seeing 6-8 teams competing to finish last and get a better draft pick is actually so strange. Why do fans of those teams just accept that there gonna be awful for a season on purpose. Surely no point attending matches if you know your team wants to lose?
say no more 😎
We are going to get some inflated win totals
Zion: world…. Forget me
Love that quote from his agent, really hoping prospects dont follow the Sharpe route. Wemby’s got nothing but passion for the game.
A lot of teams arent really set up to tank though..
Pacers, Hornets, Wizards, Magic, Pistons in the east. Spurs, Jazz, Thunder, Rockets in the west?
Magic, Pistons, and Rockets wont really be tanking much as they are just young teams that will lose lots of games, with the flattened odds at the top, these teams wont really have a reason to tank unless you think they can lose more than the true tanking teams. The wizards and hornets should tank, but its hard to say with their current talent levels/front offices. So that leaves the jazz, pacers, spurs, thunder as the actual teams most likely to tank?
kings will somehow screw this up

Teams will start sending just 4 guys on the floor and hope the refs won’t notice.
Watch a play in team win the lottery like the Pelicans did in 2019 lol
Spurs please trade us Poeltl, you know you want to be as bad as possible
It’s understandable why, but there is going to be a lot of heartbreak for the majority of teams that tank and don’t secure a top 2 much less top 5 pick.
It’s not fun to watch your team tank an entire year’s worth of games on purpose and it’s even worse if they barely get anything to show for it.
Best case scenario for my team is that the Rockets develop our young guys but just naturally suck enough to lose semi-competitive games for at least the first 3/4 of the season. In the last 15 games or so if we are within striking distance of one of those coveted 14% lottery slots, then fuck it go for broke.
Whoever comes third in the lottery will be weeping tears of blood.
Get this man to the spurs
