    They should focus on the teams actually resting healthy players. Or teams that don’t lead the 4th quarter in scoring. It feels like someone (OKC) saw what was coming and bitched about it. Lauri had a groin injury. If they want to send their own groin injury experts they are welcome to.

    And this is where I think we are making a mistake still. If Svi and Love are going to play that much more than Cody and Taylor the GM needs to intervene through trade or other influence. It obviously can’t be left to Will. I do think our ownership FO is a bit thin skinned with the league office...

    Yeah one less guy doesn’t mean you mothball Taylor. He literally had just blocked a shot then caused a turnover. On offense he made two nice drives off of close outs and dropped a nice pass to Nurk. Then he’s not heard from again. Ace not being there means more minutes imo. I think Brice maybe...

    Enough people mentioned tanking and the Jazz last week that I think they got scared. Whether it was direct contact from the league office or just the narrative… who knows. Either way it feels like malpractice to let Taylor sit. He was really active that 4 minutes and came off a career high. We...

    If last night is a close loss we still get development. Taylor was solid in his 4 minutes. I have no idea why he gets mothballed. Lauri gets 38 minutes last night… love was good in his 15 minutes. Like I get we can’t sit Lauri every night but we get like an ounce of negative attention and we...

    It’s the “will he ever get his athleticism back” talk that gets me. Y’all have the patience and vision of a toddler. His processing is horrible. It’s getting slightly better though. It will continue to get better with reps. Go get some apple juice and watch a couple Bluey episodes and it will...

    share your current thoughts about whether Taylor Hendricks is an NBA player

    He’s shooting 64% from 3 in the 6 games in November. He’s improved his handle and driving. Soon as his legs are back and he shakes the rust the blocks will be back. Wild how insanely impatient some are.

    The NBA and its stakeholders have started talks on finding new solutions to prevent tanking

    The ****** team draft would feed families.

    The NBA and its stakeholders have started talks on finding new solutions to prevent tanking

    I think the tear down looking less immediate will prevent some teams from tanking (which could be good or bad) but that's kind of what they want... right? I think allowing teams to opt out of eligibility for a certain pick, say its a 1 or 2 player draft, is fine. I also think almost no one...

    I'm a groin expert. This is a common occurrence. I do think any soft tissue injury likely doesn't heal for NBA guys with a week of rest... so if there is an injury I could see them managing it like this. The fact is BKN has been sitting MP jr. on B2B for "rest". Like we could do that. This...

    The NBA and its stakeholders have started talks on finding new solutions to prevent tanking

    I actually think you could have the option to "opt-out" of the lotto if you didn't like the draft and are planning on a multiyear tank. I bet most teams will stay in but you remove the ability to complain if you give them an opt out. If like the top 5 teams opt out the other 9 are likely like...
