In the NFL it's specifically written that it's up to the team, not the league, to punish the player if the occurrence happened during practice... Pretty sure it's the same in the NBA. Also, it's embarrassing that the Rams didn't suspend Donald, and that the media treated it like a joke when the same dipshit pundits were saying Garrett should be in jail for assault for what he did. Funny how the narrative shifts when the guy doing the deed is on one of the league's flagship teams, even if the fans don't give enough of a fuck about them to the point that McVay has to do silent counts for a home game.

To be fair I thought Garrett bonking Rudolph on the head was funny too and said so at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend everybody here watches the Victor highlights from this week in the US, what an amazing player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relic Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 I respect this from Draymond - In addition to a teamwide apology, Green said he has apologized to Poole individually and has also offered apologies to Poole's family. But Green doesn't know how his apologies have landed with Poole. "Jordan's feelings are the most important, and to be honest I'm not sure how he feels," Green said. "That's not a bridge we have crossed yet, nor should it be a bridge we've crossed yet. "The most important thing initially is to allow Jordan to work through his thoughts and not me try to persuade his thoughts one way or another." "I watched the video 15 times, maybe more, because when I watched the video, I'm like, yo, this looks awful," Green said. "This looks even worse than I thought it was. It's pathetic."

DireWolfSpirit Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Shaedon Sharpe quietly scored 27 along with some blocks and steals in about a half of playing time. The competion wasnt elite or anything but it was still promising to finally see him productive on an actual court after all the hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh...dude still constantly acts like a shithead. The fact that he's self-reflective afterward doesn't change the fact that he'll do something like this again. That's who he is. He's a dirty player and cheap shot artist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Redeem team documentary. A lot of players throwing the 2004 coach under the bus without any acceptance of their part in it. Also, we does D Wade live in a grannies house from the 70s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMC Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Just saw The Ringer's annual "Young Core Rankings," which evaluates each team based on players under 25. I expected the Magic to rank pretty high, but was surprised they were all the way at 4th - behind only the Grizzlies, Cavs, and Mavs, in that order. As their blurb mentions, while the young guards are very iffy (and two of em can't even stay healthy), the frontcourt does look really promising. They did this two days ago: Should be noted that was in a combined 88 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Warriors spilling all the money over the bar. Poole gets 4 years, $140M and Wiggins gets 4 years, $109M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigFatCoward Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 I can't beleive how much online chatter is calling Wiggins a 'mug' for taking that offer. Its 27.5 million a year, he has found somewhere he is happy, performing well and has a very good chance of long term success. Would 10 million a year more improve his life in any tangible way?

Calibandar Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Which make sense. I would imagine they want to see how things go this year and if it really works and he redeems himself, they can still try to re-sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Yeah, he's really not worth his current contract and I'm sure he wants even more. He's also not the greatest fit with Ant. They're the backcourt now and neither is a real PG. I think the team would be better off getting a pass first PG and run the offense entirely through Ant and Kat. Also, Ant is getting maxed out at the end of this year and the Wolves may just not be able to offered him given what KAT and Gobert make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
