re: Report: NBA & Amazon Prime agree to deal to broadcast NBA games
Posted by TigerinATL on 4/26/24 at 7:12 pm
[quote]one would hope this opens that door to handle local broadcasts. [/quote]
Pels free with Prime would be the best solution for many of us. However, this looks like Amazon is trying to duplicate it's Thursday Night Football success with the NBA. Are they going to spend a Billions on that an...
re: Where do the Lakers go from here?
Posted by TigerinATL on 4/26/24 at 12:04 pm
Lebron pulled out the "It's just basketball" last night. I can't see him walking away and leaving $50 million on the table, but I think he has come to the realization that he needs a lot more help than he's getting in Los Angeles. It probably wouldn't hurt to go back East either....

I'm philosophically pro net neutrality, but I like my free Max subscription and don't want it to go away as a result of this. Has anyone noticed any of the behaviors that there were concerns about if N...

[quote]are we fooling ourselves here that it will make any difference? [/quote]
Do you mean can someone like Dejounte Murray be a better 1B than BI and step up when Zion is out? Probably not. This team will go as Zion goes.

re: Shout out to all the folks who foreseen this last offseason
Posted by TigerinATL on 4/25/24 at 9:10 am
BI and CJ's failure in the first 2 games here has been bad and noticeable. I say that as someone that believes the playoffs have gone as expected. Home teams are supposed to win, especially higher seeded home teams.
Lets just hope these 2 games are burned in the memories of the FO. Because eve...

re: Zach Lowe & Kevin Pelton can't imagine a world where Trey isn't starting next year
Posted by TigerinATL on 4/23/24 at 9:06 am
BI for KAT does make a lot of sense for both teams. He's one of the few bigs that actually would create space for Zion. Before Gobert arrived he managed to maintain a decent rebounding number after he started taking 6+ 3s a game. KAT actually is what people have always dreamed Myles Turner would b...

I saw a report this morning saying the Spurs had no interest in Trae, although they would have interest in Murray if he was available. I know the Hawks want to move Trae, but I don't think they'll be able to unless they are really ready to cut their losses and take a low ball offer.
I like this ...

[quote]His value isn’t great right now[/quote]
He took a financial bath cutting Stan after one year. I don't think poor value on BI would keep Griff from trading BI if he truly thought BI was holding back the team. The question is, will Griff's optimism bias neutralize his lack of sunk cost bia...

Tim Bontemps on Windy's podcast had similar comments. We've been saying it our self all year without really completing the thought - if Trey starts, who doesn't? Presumably Zion/Herb/Center will keep starting. That means benching or trading one of Ingram or CJ....
