wemby is such a freak of nature. the dude could play point guard if he wanted.

there is no more forgiveness or mercy. only rage anf the seeking of righteous vengeance.

"Acquired at the trade deadline from Detroit in the Kevin Huerter deal, there were some immediate red flags around Ivey when he held an impromptu postgame sermon in February about the “Old Jaden Ivey” being dead, especially now that “Christ was in his life.” Over the last few weeks, he started taking to his social media account and preaching to people his beliefs, while condemning those that he felt weren’t “saved.” Monday was more than enough in being the final straw, as there was an ongoing opinion that Ivey’s behavior was somehow spiraling.... ...There was noise out of Detroit that Ivey was not only very religious but a bit of a “preacher” in the locker room, so why was there not enough homework done on him by Karnisovas before the deal?" *** Apparently its been an issue for a while.

he's always been a big religious guy. not only is his knee injured probably beyond repair, he's also dumb. regardless of how you feel about pride month, shut your pie hole and keep it to yourself. he's not good enough to say those things and stay in the league.

marner is a much better player than raymond. i love lucas. i want him to succeed. but if the wings are going to challenge for stanley cups, he needs to be one of the best players on the ice. right now he's not. can he grow into that? i hope so. as everyone here has said ad nauseum, the wings dont have enough elite talent and they dont hsve enough hard players. right now raymond is neither. hopefully he grows into it.

fully healthy they are behind cleveland. i think they've passed the knicks because cade is now better than brunson. behind boston for sure. philly? they will never be "fully healthy" so it doesnt really matter. but a healthy embiid would destroy the pistons. without cade the pistons are 50/50 to get bounced in round one.

raymond is young, on a great contract, and has provided nothing the last two years in crunch time? would you trade him? you could get a king's ransom for him. as mad as i am at him, i probably wouldnt deal him. he's still young. if they could get a guy like tuch to be on line one, it might be different. i supppse that's what mbn or bear is supposed to eventually be. trying to thread the needle between larkin/debrincat's prime and seider/raymond's prime is proving difficult.

will okc sit half their team too?

the best part is now we dont havr to watch that stupid christian laettner shot over and over again while the announcers fellate duke. they can show the shot that BEAT duke over and over. the sad part is that it wasnt coach k's arrogant ass on the sideline that had to endure it. scheyer may not be a rhodes scholar, but he doesnt come across as a hypocritical smug jack ass like "coach k."

jon scheyer is from the (rich) suburbs of chicago. i used to work for a guy whose kids went to the same high school. said scheyer was dumber than a box of rocks. now that was a long time ago, and he did go to duke (lol) so maybe he's picked up some smarts over the years, but still... then again, you dont have to be smart to coach sports.

its depressing. three years in a row its the same thing. will larkin cry about not getting enough help at the deadline this year? yzerman really needs someone - anyone - outside of seider/raymond/edvinsson to step up and do something. and if theyre not, ****ING TRADE THEM FOR SOMETHING. and quite frankly, can lucas raymond get some stick? doesnt your supposed best offensive player need to step it up? i know what happened two years ago, but he's been pretty quiet this year and last when they needed him.

honestly, i've lost interest. i just assume theyre going to roll over and lose. (until they win a game and then i'm right back in it)

horrible coaching job.

theyre just not good enough.

big ten continues to roll.

that was a huge huge win.

if they went full tank, the move would have been to trade larkin.

i certainly dont feel he's some evil genius like you do, that he's holding back detroit sports teams by pinching pennies. this tigers' summer sort of undercut your thesis on that one. i think he's a nepo baby who hasnt done the work like his dad did. i'm not sure why you think otherwise.

you "think its pretty certain" based on what? again, you put stock in illitch having a plan other than yzerman falling into his lap and him saying "ok." i think its more likely yzerman said "i'll take the job, but the farm system is **** and it will take ten years to rebuild and i want him, him, him, and him to come to my staff and a budget for whatever i want." yzerman had all the leverage and illitch has no history of knowing anything about hockey or any connections in the league to make a judgment on who to hire.

i dont think illitch had anything to do with it. i think it was all yzerman. i doubt illitch is that involved in the day to day.

jason previously stated that players want to play with dylan larkin. i'm asking who.

****ing idiot is more like it.

derrick queen has fallen off rhe map a little bit too. you know, the reason why they gave up an unprotected first round pick in a loaded draft?
