The league is in crisis. There’s some puzzle pieces being put together and I can’t figure it all out but Adam ‘hyper reactive LGBT’ Silver is behind it

-Minnesota inexplicably trades KAT for Julius Randle, punting on a WCF team, pushing Ant further away from being face of the league :mjpls:

-Spurs give Wemby an all star running mate Fox, giving up no youth, nothing of value, aiding him to be face of the league

-Mavs trade Luka, gives him the Lakers star market

-Grizz fire Jenkins, pushing Ja further away from face of the league

-Nuggets fire Malone :jbhmm:

None of these moves make sense by themselves. Gotta be a larger league-mandated goal

Wolves couldn’t afford to pay maxes to Ant, KAT and Gobert and KAT was the easy choice with all they gave up to Gobert

Fox & Rich Paul forced him to San Antonio

Mavs didn’t wanna pay Luka the supermax

Jenkins already had one foot out the door, they fired his whole staff in the offseason. Only thing surprising about it is the timing

Same with Malone & Booth, only surprising part is timing

The white guy cool but who else Gordon been what for Gordon been. When you drafting late and gotta give guys bad contracts it’s on the coach to develop more than one guy.

Gordon became Gordon when he was exposed to Jokic & Malone’s system. Let’s not act like it was lit when he was dunking with rotating Smurfs :why:

The roster has reached its limits. Lost 2 major pieces to their title and didn’t replace them. I don’t see what Malone did to make them lose

Owners don't like to be dictated too regardless if a coach has won them a title/s or not. And with Malone's character he's probably said something too loudly (me or him) which he should of kept to himself and gave the Kroenkes a reason to get rid of.

He’s acting like NBA owners and GM’s weren’t worse in the 70’s and 80’s. That’s one of the reasons the Lakers were so successful in the 80’s. Help from dumb ass GM’s.

You mean the period of time when the league was in peril and on tape delay and lucked into Boston and LA being the 2 best teams? That period?

……Is that your rebuttal or are you on my side? :wtf:

Braun had just come off a national championship in college and immediately won an NBA ring actually playing minutes in the playoffs as a rookie :yeshrug: we can't say he wasn't already gonna be a decent player
Can't say he would either in that case. A lot of cacs came from championship caliber college programs to be caca in the NBA
