While we're at it, we should also eliminate intentionally (although called a common) fouling when you're up by 3 and the opponent is coming down with a chance to tie the game with a 3pt shot. Clearly leverage is gained there as well. That's "not basketball" either, it's called strategy.

Then I guess we can also eliminate the "foul to give" strategy. Because teams gain leverage off of that as well.

Lmao ok so he blatantly dives AWAY from the ball because he thinks that Ware is going to hit it away? Riiiiiight makes sense. He didn't want to jack his arm/shoulder up and I get that. Let's not make this something that it's not, because that is CLEARLY why he didn't dive on it. And he would...

It's not fun to watch but it's a strategy all the same...

Thibs reportedly said that he would "crawl to Madison Square Garden"

I agree with you here. Blake is pretty special at the PF spot and I think that a lot of teams could benefit from him. He'd be really cool to see in New Orleans with AD.

Not sure I follow where you're coming from BNC... If he dives on that football they retain possession and they at least have a shot. By him being a pussy he directly cost his team a shot to win. I get it -- he didn't dive because he was thinking about his future and didn't want to be hurt; any...

I think so. He's got a lot of talent. Definitely more bounce and quickness than just about anyone he will see on the court, and he also has a jump shot that is coming along nicely. I like him a lot.

I agree partially. I really like Schroeder and I think he's a star in the making, so they should definitely try to clear up time for him to grow and blossom. I don't think that they should full on rebuild though. They're in a weird position -- without a true superstar if they "rebuild" by even...

I think that it's a very interesting point. I doubt they do anything, because I feel like their price would be too high for him.

I don't mind the hack-a rule. If you're a professional basketball player, you should be able to make more than half of your foul shots. It also adds strategy to the game.

Just under 4m until HC

I didn't think that Luke was THAT bad haha. Yeah you can assemble a great team but they still need to be coached somewhat. I think he could have done a lot worse in terms of mismanaging things.

A lot of NBA fans and people in general complain that they are turned off by how much NBA players can get away with. The most obvious of these calls (or non-calls) are traveling, carrying, the lack of "hard fouls", etc. However, when things are called at a more frequent clip, often times those...

Maybe we can look at the flip side of this... Derek Fisher was just fired today and he could probably be a deep role player on some teams lol

I'm probably taking Alex Smith. He's arguably the best QB out of the four listed, being paid the least, and he's the second youngest. I think that he is the best game manager out of these QBs and easier to throw into a system and have him be successful.

I think so too. A lot of teams would be upgrading with some of the coaches on the market.

Blatt will make a resurgence sooner, rather than later.

Did I read this right? That's nuts...
