Being held accountable for his actions is "too much" to handle. A bully with a persecution complex.

what a loser.  

if adam silver really did talk him out of retirement - which is probably news to adam silver - he's a bad commissioner.  draymond is an embarassment to the league.

Some team needs to put in a hockey goon and just hammer Green in his glass jaw.

he deserves it.

that's basically for 240 games.  i doubt he plays half that.

Seems pointless.

Nobody cares about the 2nd round now.  They are not coming back a second night to watch it.

[casimir]

I wonder if they might eventually add an additional round or two and allow draft rights guys to be stashed in the G league.

[Betrayer]

I like the format right now if it remains at 2 rounds. If they're going to increase the number of rounds and create a draft and stash, then sure, make a second night. Nobody will watch it, but go for it.

This would make sense - the depth of a draft pretty much has to match the size of rosters+minor league assignments. You can go more rounds if teams begin to have numbers of contracted players in the G league.

He has worn 15 since he was a kid.

 

[Motown Bombers]

Wait, they gave Jokic #15 to erase Anthony's accomplishments? What exactly were his accomplishments? Making it out of the 1st round once? Demanding to be traded? 

[casimir]

Jokic has had a better on court career with Denver than Anthony in terms of overall quality and length.

Carmelo will be lucky if anyone in Denver remembers him at all by the time Jokic hangs them up.

Will Anthony be invited to Jokic's jersey retirement?

[Deleterious]

Melo had a better argument if he said this right away.  Jokic was a nobody and just a 2nd round pick.  Saying it now with what he has become and after bringing a title to Denver is silly.

Isn't Monday MLK day?  The league usually has matinee games that day.  Nobody will watch now.

Yes it is.  OSU at UoM basketball at noon on big FOX. Pistons lose in Washington at 3pm.  Monday would be a damn fun sports day if it weren’t a work day.
