- Comment on NBA announces punishments for LA Clippers after Kawhi probe 1 week ago:
it’s not that it was too big to hide, the reason this happened is the other 29 owners don’t actually want to give players any more money, which they would have to do if Ballmer received no punishment and kept circumventing the cap.

I gave you an entire list of basketball reasons. how are any of us supposed to know what’s going on in the locker room?
- Comment on Would the Rockets be better off with Dillon Brooks over KD? 5 months ago:
KD was far from the biggest problem with that Suns team. They also had no PG. They had no Center. They changed coaches every season. They were paying Beal $60m. They had no assets to fill out the team around the big 3. They were over the 2nd tax apron that limited them even more.

that exact quote is not in the article.
“How he’s viewed? They say a lot of free throws, so playing against him - I haven’t played against him this year, but as for tonight - (he was) defending without fouling, and I mean – I don’t know how many minutes I shared with him on the court, but, as I was saying before,” Wembanyama said of Avdija to reporters.
“I mean today was a pretty fun experience. I think what he displayed basketball-wise was solid, and it shows on the results. I mean, it was close games with intensity.”

player values are whatever is negotiated between two teams. Some GMs know what they’re doing, some don’t.
