It doesn't matter being one spot away when the draft is rigged.

I choose to naively believe in bad luck.

Wemby wanted to go to the Spurs and the NBA decided it would be best for their product to unite him with POP. So they rigged it. Just like how DRose was rigged to Chicago and LeBron was rigged to Cleveland (like c'mon now).

The Hornets is an entire franchise of what could have been.

You have the French Prince. For a 6th-man-oty bid. Nothing can go wrong.

Americans don't rig anything. Purer sporting culture has never been known.

from wiki:

The most recent collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league and its players' union, which takes effect with the 23-24 season, introduces a requirement that a player appear in at least 65 regular-season games to be eligible for most major regular-season awards. However, this rule does not apply to the Rookie of the Year award and the All-Rookie Team.

Welcome to the Jordan Poole experience. He had 41 points on 19 shots in the game before that.

His lack of postseason success is really not his fault. Sixers let Jimmy walk stupidly backing Ben Simmons. Then we all know what happened with Ben Simmons. And he lost the year to Kawhi vs the luckiest triple bounce shot ever. Sixers could’ve definitely titled that year and the narrative on Embiid would be very different.

He’s also had Harden turn into a pumpkin when it mattered most.

So I’m gonna go old school here and ask you to show your work why Embiid is a loser.

I saw a clip of Randle being super dialed in defensively this preseason. If he gives that type of effort defensively with regularity then the Knicks could shock the world this season.

After all they were 17-8 after the Josh Hart trade, which is a 55 win pace if you prorate that to an 82 game season.

I like the way you think Roll of Rick!

I bet Knicks reg season 44.5 wins over, bet them 50+ wins and then even took a flyer on #1 seed in East.

You'd think after being a Knicks fan for so long not to do this anymore.

Hot Tip!

FanDuel has a NBA League Pass promotion. Opt into the promotion under Offers and bet $5 on a game and you get a promotional code good for a 3 month free trial of NBA League Pass.

He’s taken a back seat and lets the guys who make decisions… actually make basketball decisions.

He said a few months ago that owning a team isn’t fun. So decent chance he sells in the near future.
