Cleveland?
so once
I mean, what do we consider small market teams? Because if we go by population then San Antonio, Detroit, and Miami might fall in that category
Let's just put it this way.
If your market aint sexy
your star won't get any help
your franchise will be called shitty
and the sexy markets will eventually come calling.
So sub out small for sexy
@KingTaharqa is easy to laugh, your team is located in the market everybody wants to play, so it's easy for your star to get help. Even with an AD, how do you convince stars to come down here..
I'll wait but I bet you have no response.
I'll wait but I bet you have no response.
Well then Cleveland only...
San Antonio never really made a big SPLASH in free agency, and I can't really see Detroit having done the same...
To be fair, til Bron came to the Lakers they were the losingest franchise of the 2010s. And I been told you NOLA aint no bball town or a free agent destination. That goes for all the other small markets too, aint no big time free agents signing wit them either. You gotta have the proper infrastructure as an organization and draft well to compete and win as a small market. Milwaukee is the best team in the league right now bruh, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Pacers, the Thunder, the Grizz all find ways to win as small markets year in and year out. Some teams and franchises are just bad historically. You are what you are in this league.
86 years old and got 11 rings, but still gives it up and wears the jersey of a guy who was young enough to be his grandson. One of the greatest ambassadors the game has ever seen.
So where is Giannis in 2021?
Yeah it’s real odd. He’s a good player too but you said it best. He doesn’t affect games even on a good night.
Damn I wonder does Zion have a shot at winning ROY. I feel for Morant to win it the Grizz gotta make the playoffs.
I'm pretty sure his ass is outta there this year. Only way he stays is if we make it to the conference finals, which won't happen trust me.
Yeah give him ROY... he looks more impressive than Morant
Zion definitely gonna get it but I like Ja's game as well. Dude is nice. Looking forward to seeing him play in Memphis when I go down there for the Sixers game.
Still in Milwaukee.
Marc Cuban been crying about the refs for 20 years lol. At least he consistent lol.
Me too. Both are dope as fuck. I’d love to build a team with both. But if Morant get the Grizzlies in the playoffs they gotta give him that or some kind of co-rookie of the year. The league gonna find a way to make sure Zion get it.Zion definitely gonna get it but I like Ja's game as well. Dude is nice. Looking forward to seeing him play in Memphis when I go down there for the Sixers game.
People on Twitter (mainly Atlanta fans) say he was thinking about protesting the draft day trade after Trae lit them up
Yup
But they called bullsh*t on Bron too
Sidebar...
Did the nba lowkey fire like ALL the old refs?
I do not recognize ANY OF THEM.
So,Lebron took all the criticism for Mr Talc's fuckery..So,this is two coaches he ran out of town and nobody in the media said a thing....Wow...

David Blatt reportedly told friends last week: 'It's either me or Kevin Love'
As the shockwaves reverberate from the Cleveland Cavaliers' stunning decision to fire head coach David Blatt on Friday, more details are beginning to

There's quite a few refs I don't recognize as well. I think there were two calls that went in the Lakers' favor that have people pissed...
The mystery block by Lebron that negated a goal tend and possible three point play for the Celtics
And
The over the back on Anthony Davis that wasn't called... then to top it off ABC had a replay that showed the ball going out of bounds after being last touched by AD... they zoomed in and was off Davis' pinky... how does the broadcast have better camera footage than officiating?
Either way there are always calls missed on both sides and I'm sure Boston got a few gimmes they didn't deserve... so that's why I say it's been bad officiating all year
They gonna fine him after the investigation according to what I've read on Twitter
