0 for 3!
Also — notice how none of the ideas involve shortening the season which is partly how we fell into this tanking sinkhole in the first place. They come up with 3 “solutions” and none of the 3 are “what would 72 games look like?”
This league is so frustrating
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The NBA presented three comprehensive anti-tanking concepts to its Board of Governors on Wednesday, with modifications expected to each before a formal vote in May, per ESPN sources. 1. 18 teams in draft lottery (seeds 7-15 in each conference) – flattened odds, with bottom 10 teams having an 8% chance, the remaining 20% odds distributed in decreasing order for 11 through 18, and and a lottery drawing for all 18 picks. 2) 22 teams in lottery using 2-year record (seeds 7-15, plus the four playoff first round exits in both conferences). Lottery teams would reach a minimum win total floor in each season, such as 25 wins. If a team falls short of the floor, it gets slotted to meet the floor. Top 4 drawn as part of lottery, as is currently. 3) 18 teams in a "5 by 5" lottery – bottom 5 teams have equal odds for the top pick, with lottery formed for picks 1-5. Bottom 5 teams have a floor at 10; those that fall out of top 5 get sorted in a separate drawing.

Jaylen Brown used SGA’s foul baiting move against him 😭
SGA started just laughing

This is Stan. He is the guardian of the stairs. It's his first day and he's a little nervous. Really hoping you don't try to pass. 12/10

@ShamsCharania But when it’s Embiid, nobody bats an eye 😑🙄

Cade Cunningham's agent, Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports, to ESPN: "Cade has delivered a first-team All-NBA season. If he falls just short of an arbitrary games-played threshold due to legitimate injury, it should not disqualify him from recognition he has clearly earned over the course of the season. The league should be rewarding excellence, not enforcing rigid cutoffs that ignore context. An exception needs to be made."

@FrankEra_ @Stuart Atwell @premierleague we all can see how you are pushing the script. Robbed United in 4k

🚨🎙️ | Michael Carrick:
"For him [Stuart Atwell] to give one penalty and not the other.. I find it CRAZY.
"I cannot understand it. Mental. I thought that was what VAR was for?"

What are you talking about? This is exactly what the drooling, loveless chuds who make up the show’s audience LIVE for.

America, this is your new “Bachelorette”. Video shows Taylor Frankie Paul viciously attacking her ex-boyfriend. ABC should cancel the entire season.

@KyrieIrving You are all mistaken if you think Kobe would have stopped and not tried to beat anyone’s record. Good for Bam for his mamba mentality.
English
Shoulda went for 85! lol

On this day in 2022, Kyrie scored the most points in a game in Nets history.

Does anyone give a damn what @stephenasmith has to say about nba expansion or the Sonics??
Or anything at all??
English
Seriously, when was the last time you a watched an @NBA game that wasn’t a playoff game?
English
@NBA__Courtside Why isn’t anyone talking about shortening the playoffs? They’re far too long and inclusive

Vince Carter on Steve Kerr suggesting the NBA lowers the 82 game season:
"This game has been good to us. 80 plus games just comes with being in the NBA. When you work your butt off to get here, that's what comes with it. Why change the format that's been great for so many years?"

@RealSkipBayless Dream team gold and Hall of Fame, Skip. Now a media leader with a greater impact than your own. 🤫

Barkley nearly called it. But wasn't nearly the story of his NBA career?
English
@TomerAzarly @townbrad Did anyone even watch the game? I did and it was the worst NBA game I have seen in years. The bullets simply gave up half way and it was nothing more than a YMCA pick game after that. Embarrassing
English
Tyronn Lue had a great quote about Bam Adebayo’s 83-point performance and some of the criticism around it:
“He shouldn't listen to it. He scored 83 points. It's Wilt, Bam, Kobe. It doesn't matter what people are talking about or saying. It's stupid. He got the record, no matter how he did it, or second best behind the 100. However he did it, whatever happened, he scored 83 points. That's something that's hard to do, no matter if you're playing against a high school team, a junior high team, 83 points is a lot of points. So I'm very happy for Bam, very happy for Spo, it was a great night for Miami.”
English
Robert Horry says Bam 83 point game needs a asterisk:
“43 shots, 43 FTs, I saw some highlights… 83 points is impressive but it gets to a point you have to respect the game. There were moments in this game it wasn’t respected. It’ll go down as 2nd most in the game, I’m putting an asterisk by this one”
English
The league tried hard to break Wilt’s record tonight. They showed us that all they gotta do is choose the given night. I fully expect Wemby to do it eventually now.
@stephenasmith you better not let me down when you talk about this bs.
Thanks a lot @KingJames idk how but it’s yo fault

@sickofdischit @joeroganhq He voted for Trump. Not too many Dems did that.
English
@joeroganhq Wtf is he talking about Right Wing? Rogan is a Democrat
English
Jon Stewart: "I enjoyed being on Rogan. I think he's an interesting interviewer... There are right-wing weaponized commentators whose sole purpose is to manipulate things to the benefit of the Bannon Project or the Project 2025. Rogan's not that guy."

@spaceandtom @QuoteForum Agreed 10000%. But stepping over his status here

@Stuart @QuoteForum He was better than every player on the lakers ever will be not named Bron n Luka

English
@Stuart @ClutchPoints He’s so done with all this, I can’t believe they haven’t traded this guy already; although, who would want him?!
