2021 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: Media Day...SHENANIGANS

[geno90221]

I think the Raiders experience in Vegas might deter the NBA from expanding in the city. Very poor attendance is what I've been hearing

How ?
They haven’t even officially had a game yet lol

Sad thing is PJ will smash her again and fall back in love

Or Vegas will edge out Seattle. I think the Golden Knights, Aces and Raiders have been pretty successful in Vegas.

Hope you’re wrong. Seattle HAS to be #1 easily. Between how the city is thriving, the pent up demand for hoops, the nba history, and how the nba shafted them. No way can I see them skipping seattle for fuggn Mexico City and Vegas. And make em way yet another 10-15 years? That would be beyond dirty

Stepdaddy season, WTH. What a sicko. Poor kid.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

This was always what general consensus was that the Nba will do except it was Vegas instead of Mexico City…. Wonder if Mexico City is leapfrogging Vegas?

It's definitely Seattle and Vegas. Seattle just dumped damn near a billion into renovating Key Arena.

she probably got more road games than him

multi millionaire can afford the best nanny. Can easily have his parents move in. It’s a forever L but he’s got the $ to fight but what do I know

Family law is well outside my area expertise, but it seems to me he could make a pretty strong case for custody as long as he could show that he could provide for a good support system for the baby while he was on the road, along with pointing out all the foul things Renner has done. Seems like he would have the financial advantage over her in terms of paying lawyers too.

That's assuming he wants to take on the committment of being the parent prmarily responsible for raising the child.

I mean.... could you blame him?

 

[lovehateself]

isnt he basically paying for her lawyers as well ?

whats crazy is she can say all this wild stuff on and " claim character piece "

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

We down for expansion or nah

I hope I'm wrong too.

And a full fledged NBA franchise is a big jump from a G-league team. The NBA probably just sees putting the G-league team as a first step in a process that's going to take a while. So, I'd think Seattle still will have priority.

Only if Seattle gets a team back.

Not with da Pride Shirt. She's a lib

Who are the most likely candidates to be moved? Otherwise put two new teams in Seattle and Vegas? Plus move two west teams to the east

I am. There's enought basketball talent around that I don't think adding a couple teams is going to dilute the overall product.

I want the draft again. Need the shenanigans of teams leaving players unprotected

Yeah Climate Pledge is ready to roll

 

[nick.]

The league is good as it is to me!

 

[RustyShackleford]

Vegas should absolutely have a basketball team. Pretty sure the Golden Knights sold out like all their home games during their inaugural season. And that's hockey.

Just give Vegas and Seattle expansion teams. Then move Memphis and NOLA (or Minny) to the east.

 

[アミーゴ]

The outgoing mayor of Seattle was at the last ASG with Silver already pushing the agenda

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

The league still doesn't have enough talent to where they can expand and the overall competition wouldn't suffer. The bottom of both conferences is still poverty

You are correct, lets start with removing Kyrie and James Harden from the Nets.

 

[RustyShackleford]

but its your own fault, PJ.

This woman is morally bankrupt

She gonna give PJ hell as long as she is able to.

PJ needs to get his mind, money, and legal team right as soon as possible

Expansion is about money, not talent.
Clippers won 17 games and the bullets 21 the last time expansion happened.

I look at it more so if there’s two more teams would it make the poverty that much more intolerable

I think the benefits of having two more rabid fan bases (if that can be assumed) outweighs the negatives

 

[nick.]

As a fan, I don't see a need for expansion, 1-16 playoff seeding, a midseason tournament, etc. Why fix what isn't broken?

I understand the business angle, though.
