It is old hat for these guys by now.

Unfortunately, as we saw with Mitchell, effort is 90% of defense. So if he isn't showing the effort now, why would he later. Mitchell came out of college touted as a defensive powerhouse. What he showed was the opposite. Maybe this guy will gain a sudden appreciation for the work required to be...

The owners have a completely different point of view than we do as ordinary fans. For them it is a hobby/business, sometimes business/hobby, so they are concerned about the money and the optics of owning a franchise, and their perspective is on different things. Of course they agree how the ping...

Of course the owners know all this. They get compensated, for sure. Ryan knew what he was getting into, and it is a larger cut of the profit sharing to pad his finances. He is fine with the higher draft picks in exchange for "considerations" of some sort.

This is why we will effectively never get a handle on climate change and it's the thing that those in power don't want to ever discuss as they are most likely among the offenders. They are perfectly fine with harming the bottom 90% as long as they can keep doing whatever they want, which will...

They will be able to get Giannis instead if they want him.

It only happens if the league needs it to, so everything's fine.

Wash rinse repeat. This year you just saw every year.

Gotta celebrate something!

Wow. Prescient.

Yes at this point may we will capitalize on him as a unique talent and get as much in return as possible. We'll need more picks to compensate for lower quality pick position.

Especially considering it's pretty obvious the league will make sure someone else gets ahead when the jazz seem to have a chance at anything like this. Without late lottery or late first-round luck we won't get anywhere. That's frankly all we've ever had. Stockton and Malone both were #13 picks...

In all likelihood put a "1" in front of that "5". Unless we strike gold in the lottery somehow like we did with Gobert and Mitchell odds are we will just never be relevant. The league doesn't need us to be relevant to maximize the money. There is no magic recipe or secret sauce from Ainge that...

I already blamed it all on the Mormons and on @Thee Idiotic Minivan K .

You are obviously way behind on this conversation. Feel free to search for it and catch yourself up. Basically you're wrong on every part of it.

It's always about the money. They had to support Wemby, so SA in the top 3 was a lock. Philly with Embiid needing a partner was another lock, big name in a big market. And Dallas obviously had favors promised for the inexplicable trade that sent YET ANOTHER ****ing generational talent to the...

So it's your fault! They needed one more prayer, that's all they needed! Thanks a lot!

All those praying Mormons ****ed it up.

I got all 6 of the top spots. The order is a bit different but I called all of the top 3 then the next 3. **** this.

The conspiracy theory is real. NBA is rigged. I called all 3 of the sixers, SA and mavs in the top 3 spots. Imagine that. **** the NBA. Can't get more blatant than that.
