Lifetime Jazz fan here...I lived in Utah for the majority of my life but due to work I moved to Cleveland, OH back in 2014 (a month before Lebron came back). Whenever I have moved to a new place, I always adopt the home teams...it helps to transition. It has been fun following the Cavs and the...

Have you seen him play? He has some real talent and I don't think he has been given the minutes...check his stats over the last two years as well. We aren't going to get an elite SG like Wade and there are not a lot of lower level guards that I think would be worth trading Big Al for...I just...

https://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/222125/Raptors_Pull_QO_To_Bayless_Making_Him_UFA I have always liked this kid, I hope the Jazz make a run at him. I think it would solidify our guard position substantially...what do you think?

I am Edgewriter's brother and I too have been a part of the board for a long time...since March 2003.... Anyway I have read his book a couple times as revisions have been made and if you take the time to read the sample you won't need me to tell you that his book has an edginess to it and it...

https://www.deseretnews.com/article/700147199/NBA-players-need-a-dose-of-reality.html Check this out...a good read and I completely agree!

Everyone has the right to do what they want...but from where I sit, the player's side of this argument needs to adjust the most. The owners screwed up to get us here...as they were slitting each other's throats under the current CBA to try and be successful. Businessmen who feel they can't...

Partly yes. I am not entitled to it in a legal sense...there is no constitution breaking here...

You are right, that was stupid. So I have provided a solution to this issue...what is your idea? What do you think the players or the owners should do to resolve this? I mean, since the players shouldn't have to risk the bulk of the burden...

I work hard for my money so I am not entitled to my entertainment, I just deserve it.

Yeah I don't like the big teams either in this thing (they are the minority)...freakin' Lakers!

I will also admit that part of me is acting with "misery likes company" philosophy. All I see is people suffering around me and even the billionaires are losing money in investments, stock markets, etc. Aside from the players having to pay rising fuel costs and grocery costs like we do, they...

I pay for it...how does it make me spoiled?

In my mind this is an issue that directly impacts the small market teams...which team do you root for?

Exactly, if you can't control your costs and not enough money is coming in as a franchise then you will fail...and it is that simple.

Also to address if my contention is that labor unions should always concede, I will say that if everyone in the industry is hurting except the unions...then they should come out from behind their locked-in increases and throw everyone a bone at least. If they are the only ones making real...

Public union? What are you talking about? The billionaires need to make money on their investment or they determine that it isn't fruitful and the team gets moved/sold. Sure the owners bear some of the blame but who needs to make the concession? The players talk about how interest is at an...

I am not a person that gets riled up very easily, but I find myself jumping on my soap box when it comes to the players making a "stand" against the owners in the collective bargaining agreement negotiations. I work in the international shipping industry and I deal everyday with union workers...

The reason for my post was I heard in an interview where KOC said that you don't string a young person along and tell them yes or no because you never know who will be drafted ahead of you.

I find it hard to believe...BPA remember? I don't think Kevin O'Connor would say such a thing to a player's representatives because he doesn't know what will happen.
