I am sure this has been said many times. But Johnson's dad wasn't a starter at FSU and he had a great pro career. Maybe he sticks it out.. ...

I know his crowd funding keeps getting shut down. But I thought he got at least a million for his defense so far. Couldn't that be used for bail? Wouldn't he just have to put up 200k for a bondsman to get him out?...

I know you want to move Ingram to SG. But you are benching a 15ppg guy (Redick), trading away a 20+ppg guy (Holiday) so you can replace them with a guy that scored 13ppg, plus you are giving him 20M a year. Is our defense that much better to overcome our much degraded offense?...

I wouldn't mind them trading Holiday. I just don't understand if he has so much value and we can get so much, why didn't we do better? Something is just off about the whole thing. Either he isn't that great or something is just really wrong with the team that he couldn't make an impact. It's worriso...

I don't get NBA fans obsession with turning former players into coaches. The two are totally different vocations and have dramatically different career paths. I'd prefer someone that has been coaching for years and has worked their way up, grinded. Take our new coach. He put in years and years, doin...

[quote]Teams with 2 dominant players know Jrue + those 2 players can make them win.[/quote] Don't we have two dominant players (Zion and Ingram). There is no positional overlap. If Holiday is that great and would have such an impact, why wouldn't we just keep him? Don't say the contract part....

He didn't do anything? He totally updated and changed the whole business model. Johnson was losing money every year. Jordan has turned a profit for the past few years. He sold about 20% last year (he still owns about 70%) for about 300M. Which is more than he paid for the team. He has owned the team...

Its the Hornets. He owns a NBA team that turns a profit every year and has more than tripled in value since he bought it, making him a billionaire. I think he is doing just fine.....

I look at trends and precedents. I just wanted to know if it has happened before. The one guy gave Carlisle and that pretty much fits. So, point is taken. The OP asked for people that don't like the hire to sound off. So I did. I figured it'd be a witch hunt or an attack topic, to beat others in...

How much money is he getting?...

So these vampires come to Alaska, no luggage or anything. They would kill and drink people. Blood splattered all over. They wore these crisp white shirts and would be covered in blood. In the next scene, the shirts had no blood on them. Who was cleaning these shirts? ...

[quote]Thats a stupid leap of logic. He wants to win a title as a HC. Money isn't what motivates successful coaches and players in the NBA. [/quote] This is a worthless platitude. Everybody "wants" to win a NBA title. It's also silly to believe that money isn't a primary motivator. Sure there ar...

So, let's say you keep 50k. The drug dealer knows it. You are the arresting officer, so they can figure out who took the money. They know you have to hide it and can't spend it right away. This is a criminal that should know lots of other criminals. Why wouldn't they just come and take it back? ...

This thread is a trap. I don't like the hire. I wanted someone younger. A rising star with a bit of mystery and intrigue. As far as what I don't like about Van Gundy. He is older than I like. He is very rich and doesn't have a huge motivation to succeed. He has been fired from his last 3 jobs. H...

I wouldn't take anything. Not going to jail. The drug dealer would know I took it and word would spread that I'm dirty.. ...

Only on this board do people believe that Ingram is superior to Westbrook.....

Gasol and Ibaka combined made like 50M. Both are FAs now. So they gained some room there (but Siakam's deal is kicking in).. I've seen where the Raptors aren't going to break the bank on VanVleet though. They have good depth with Lowry, David and Powell. Plus they are great at scouting. They want...

Didn't you say that they had more interviews lined up and wanted to honor them? I thought that made sense.....

[quote]what about a Jrue trade to Toronto for a S&T of Van Vleet and OG? [/quote] Why would they get rid of Van Vleet? They need him and he is a huge part of what they do. Lowry is in the last year of his deal and they play together a lot. I don't see them letting go of either of those guys.. Yo...

We keep getting these tall combo type guards. I want some speed and explosive ability. Ball has a little bit of that. But I want a burner. I had high hopes for Jackson, but I guess that ship has probably sailed.....
