NBA General Info - October 2022

[Deleterious]

Banchero only scored 18 tonight.  Bust.

It did take him 20 shots though.  So it wasn't a great game.

[Deleterious]

Lakers about to get their first W.  Stupid Denver.

[RandyMarsh]

Despite trading away virtually every good player on the their team the Jazz move to 6-2 on the year after crushing the Grizzlies tonight.

This is a demotion, right?

[Betrayer]

Nash must be so happy right now. Take that money and leave the drama behind. What a train wreck.

[Deleterious]

By sides he means Boston?  They would need some sort of compensation to let him go wouldn't they?

 

[Deleterious]

Well OK.

 

[Betrayer]

That should solve all the PR issues they're having.

Maybe Josh Primo can sign with them as well?

[Motown Bombers]

Kevin Durant demands a trade by the end of the week.

[Deleterious]

 

[buddha]

didnt durant demand before the season started that nash be fired?  so he got what he wanted.

of course, durant also demanded they get kyrie and harden, iirc.  durant is a lousy gm, to no one's surprise.

remember when the nets were a plucky group of overachievers who had a good coach and a great team system?  and then sold it all to get an injured durant, a fat james harden, and a dumbass in kyrie?  lolz nets.  you deserve your pain.

between the garnett/pierce trade and this debacle, the nets might be the worst run franchise in the league.  at least the lakers got a title out of their stupidity.

that said, i see you minnesota.  speaking of minnesota, did joe dumars fool us all and start masquerading as minnesota's gm?  hmmm...the rest of the league is getting smaller and faster, i think i'll show them and get bigger and slower!

at least joe didnt give up 5 number one picks to sign josh smith like minny did with gobert.

Let Durant rot.    As far as Kyrie.........I don't know why they keep him.    He's such a headache all the time with his stupid beliefs (Earth is flat, no really)........now its gone from silly to poisonous and teams usually put  up with that because a player wins.   They aren't winning at all.    Brooklyn, New York has a large Jewish population.   I don't get why they just haven't made the move.    Some other stupid team will take a chance and he'll poison that locker room too.

btw, i think its interesting that the league fines edwards for using a homophonic slur on instagram, which he apologized for, but doesnt say anything to kyrie for all his shenanigans, and instead just issued a generic "lets love everybody" press release.

where's lebron and his outrage?  i mean, when someone dared "like" a tweet about china lebron was all about lecturing him about how he needs to get educated about chinese history.  but when kyrie endorses an anti semitic movie, lebron doesnt say shit?  doesnt steve kerr want to make a statement?  no?  hmmm...

Happiest person involved with the NBA today is Steve Nash.

Kenny with the garbage take as usual.

I dont get it, the Nets suck with him,  they'll probably be better without him.   Just do it already. 

[NYLion]

Nets are a beautiful train wreck. Couldn't happen to a nicer group of guys.

[RandyMarsh]

Considering the markets they play in I think the nets and Knicks could both make a case for worst run teams in the league.

He's out shopping for his Browns gear.  You know, the Browns team that gladly took on Deshaun Watson?

[Deleterious]

Kyrie is providing good cover for the Udoka hiring.  Almost nobody is talking about the Nets hiring a coach that did something so bad his previous organization thought he should be suspended for a year.  And they hired him after serving about a month of the year long suspension.  

Maybe that was an option for his punishment.  A year suspension or coach the Nets.  

[Shinzaki]

I thought Brooklyn was the top of the food chain

[casimir]

I honestly cannot believe that Irving hasn’t been suspended indefinitely.  Why are the Nets and NBA sitting on their hands waiting for the other organization to do something?  Even if it results in only a handful of games.  Or maybe there isn’t a precedent for them to stand on?  I guess I am struggling to come up with a prior incident where something similar has occurred, so maybe there isn’t anything.
