Nah clickbait implies someone intentionally put out a bad take, or bad reporting just to get Clicks. Stein aint like that...dude is about as plugged in as they come. I bet someone actually did float this and it was credible enough, no matter how much backtracking and spin they do now.
Tanking sucks...they need to just make it all the lottery teams have the same odds, so there's no reason to tank, the 12th team could get 1st or 8th and the worst record could get 11th. Don't matter. OR, and this would probably be crazy, do the odds in reverse order...the 4 teams that miss the play in get the best odds, and it works it way back.
I get what you're saying but hasn't Dybansta had issues against better teams, that's a flag too. But yeah, Peterson will go #1 because of skill and shot. I've heard some experts describe him as ANT with an already developed shot...teams won't pass on that, flags or not. But they should definitely think hard about it.
They'd NEVER do it, but yeah...there would be some trash talking and social media would explode. It would dissolve into racist dialogue real quick. BTW, the White team would win IF Jokic and Luka gave a fuck about the All Star game....they don't. The team Nick mentions (Luka/Reaves/Konn/Flagg/Jokic would be beastly though...especially in a year or two when Konn and Flagg aren't rookies) Also what you do with mixed players and Latin players?
I work with people who loved(and yeah we all agreed it was great) the halftime show, but even they, the Mexican and spanish ones, were like "We have NO clue what he was mumbling, but it wasn't spanish" lmfao.
There are rumors that it's the current owners who went to cuban to see if he can buy them out so they can take a stake in the Vegas franchise since they are making NO progress with legalizing gambling in Texas. So crazy how much money Oklahoma and Louisianna pump into Texas to prevent us from gambling here...it makes sense for them to push so hard against it.
Thinking the same thing...wife won't want to watch episodic, so need to sit her down and watch it all. I get what you're saying and there are a few shows I can't wait on like that. GOT was maybe the last one...I tend to watch Star Trek shows week to week as they're usually contained stories with one overarching plot for the season.
I saw the thread title and immediately jumped to this...for one opening scene. Not episode, not season. The SCENE that set everything up and hooked you immediately...this was the one.
I don't think cuban is the best at all...but I would MUCH rather go back to him than what we've had. The issue with Cuban for the last decade is he was poor compared to other owners. He wasn't able to keep up with the others...if they get it back with an investor group with money, it'll probably be better. I know he feels guilty as shit for what happened, and while I'd LOVE for someone else to own the team, if it gets rid of Dumont and them I'll be okay. At least you know Mark Loves the team, and knows a little bout basketball.
Man the way W circles talk about her...especially their massive lesbian fan base, is she's one of the hot ones(to be fair she looks better NOW than in this photo last I checked...pre assault of course)
Oh yeah, I'm biased and would Take Cooper, but I could def see someone saying Luka, who's taken a team to the Conference Finals twice and the Finals with clutch moments for sure. Also luka came in maybe the most polished prospect ever(not the best, or most talented...but the most fully fleshed out). He was an offensive playmaker at a high level from the jump and hasn't gotten like crazy better. He's obviously entering his prime, but has been THIS good since his 2nd or 3rd season. We've already seen a massive jump in Cooper as an offensive player...one we weren't even sure he'd have.
