These asshats aren't even trying to hide it now. At least the other guy acknowledged NOLA fans think they're pieces of shite.

Sadly this is probably a common opinion for most media guys.

Dammit. I like Jacoby. I was hoping it was someone I hated already.

Was this filmed before Murray tore his ACL?

If you're just a fan of the NBA in general, of course you'd want AD somewhere other than New Orleans.

This is because the cap structure in the NBA sucks and leaves the small market teams with no hopes of competing. frick it, if AD leaves after this year, then I am done with it for good.

Great point.

Cap structure forced the Pels to make the moves they made. It also caused all the injuries to the players.

If only they used the cap structure like those competitve, large market Chicago Bulls and New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets

There are advantages to being in LA, NYC, SF. Just like there are disadvantages to being in OKC, Portland, San Antonio, Memphis, and Salt Lake City.

Good ownership and luck are the main drivers of team success.


One interesting thought-out Secret history of the league could make a case for small market owners consistently being rooked by large market owners in CBA negotiations (max salaries, stricter luxury tax, supermax extensions)

The guy on the right talking shite is creepy and awkward...there was a couple of awkward moments of silence...like the show started off professionally and then kind of lost its rhythm. Shows like these and people rooting for small market teams to lose are the reason the leagues are slowly losing interest with people. The NBA is basically root for the team Lebron is playing for, the Warriors having a super team that no one can beat, the Celtics and Knicks are always in conversation because of their geographical location even though some years (most years with the knicks) they are bad teams, and the Clippers are the baby brother to the Lakers even if they are a better team. Its boring to watch until it gets to the playoffs because unlike football or baseball, you can accurately predict who is going to win each game 80% of the time.
