The Summer of Dysfunction: NBA 2022 Offseason thread

They are not even playing, he put the Sixers vs Knicks for some reason, that is just 2 random teams playing

Silver should have made it Sixers vs Heat instead of being obsessed with getting a NY market team on the schedule.

Milwaukee got so lucky. I think dude would be happy to play anywhere lol. Nobody playing now cares about the Bulls old championships

I thought they were gonna be really good last year but they fell apart. Lonzo still hurt too I think.

This is going to get swept under the rug but LMAO at all of the nikkas who thought he wouldn’t get paid and that the sixers didn’t violate the CBA by not going thru the proper protocols to fine him game checks ….it wouldn’t surprise me if this nikka got the whole 20million and they did this agreement just to save themselves the embarrassment of losing the case and “setting a precedent” for other players in the NBA because trust and believe if the settlement was in the Sixers favor they would have announced tht shyt

Sixers copping pleas I remember when c00ns were in here saying that the evil “Klutch” regime were costing him money and that Rich Paul should have to pay Ben out of his pocket for making him hold out LMAO …well there you have it

Agreed
It was interesting though that Jrue was basically asked to step up as a second option after Middleton went down and failed miserably

They are still my favorites to make it out the East this year if they stay healthy

Jrue actually outplayed Middleton for the most part this year and deserved that All NBA spot, but he’s not a #2 option full time when it matters most.

Ben Simmons ended up winning, but best believe the owners will use this example as the reason the next CBA stipulates players will get prorated salaries if they miss x number of games in a season.

He didn’t get his bread in full, so it’s still an L on his part.

Not sure why they not giving him questions of his current tour playing for Greece.

How is this not a thread?

He's looking like I don't got the look

They were going to beat the Warriors if Middleton didn't get injured. They need to fix their defense though as it was still meh even after Lopez came back.

quite the take , but naw
