Charles confuses me with his stances on certain issues but I definitely feel what he's saying here.

Asik to ATL for Milsap is the only deal out there that makes sense... it's funny but most teams already have big bucks committed to their own center

 

[do work son]

reason i don't want ryan anderson or millsap is because i want to add a player to solidify our bench. hopefully we can get a capable strecth 4 and a backup ball handler/distributor or a scorer

Horford will EAT and be in discussion of top 3 PF's if that trade happens

I just feel that the NBA should scale back on the policing of it's players off the court. What the players tweet and what they do off the court is their business.

But I guess since they represent the NBA off the court by default, they have to police them. I just think that's unfair.

 

[shoeking2101]

I could of sworn the NBA banned tights

 

[tyonenine]

I could of sworn the NBA banned tights

I remember when that was an nba trend. Everybody was wearing them

Ehh...since everyone like to make the parallel between professional sports and the corporate world all the time...why should they scale back?

People get fired or not hired for **** they do outside of work all time...with social media being the main reason why in most cases.

Yep, I agree if these guys were just playing ball for recreational purposes and not receiving a pay check. However, these guys are professionals and at the end of the day its a job. It's like if you had a bad day at work and went on twitter and defamed your co-worker or upper management. That kind of action would definitely get you reprimanded because its not a good representation of your company. It's kinda like why they say you should be careful of what you post your social media outlets like fb, twitter, instagram cause one petty little thing could warrant repercussions and possibly your job.

The NBA gets killed for having a thug image even though it's mostly unwarranted there were a few incidents this summer but other than players aren't that wild. So I could see why the NBA is overbearing. I love the NFL but players are out of control and get a pass for it from the media.

I definitely see what you're saying, and I guess your point is correct. I just feel like at what point does work end and real life begin? This could apply to any field of work, not just NBA.

Why they got Nash in the Christmas commercial like he still plays basketball?

Because it was filmed during Media Day.

 

[nelson999]

so Howard's strategy for free throws is to sing Beyonce songs in his head?  that explains alot

 

[lynchpin33]

howard singing beyonce and usher songs at the free throw line -- how some of y'all on here take this clown serious is beyond me....
