Is this up to date? It seems it was last updated for the 22-23 season before the newest cba took effect.
- Comment on Plot twist: Bronny to the Lakers 3 days ago:
If a Team has made a Required Tender to such a player and the player has not signed a Player Contract within the period between the Initial Draft and the Subsequent Draft, the Team that drafted the player shall lose its exclusive right to negotiate with the player and the player will then be eligible for selection in the Subsequent Draft.

This is what I found about the topic but IDK how accurate it is.
- Comment on Plot twist: Bronny to the Lakers 3 days ago:
I think you can re-enter the draft the following year in hopes of getting picked by another team. So if a player says I’m not playing for you, most teams probably don’t want to waste a pick on a player they’ll never get.
For players there is no benefit to being drafted early in second round vs going undeafted. Only first round picks are subject to the rookie scale, everyone else can get paid as much or little as they can negotiate. So theoretically the last pick in the draft or someone undrafted all together can get paid more than the first pick.

I think that’s relatively common for second round picks. I know Austin Reeves did something similar.
- Comment on Plaschke: Dan Hurley rejection is another humiliation for Lakers brand 2 weeks ago:
He’s wants input or he wants to be the GM, there’s an important difference there. A coach having input is normal, a coach wanting to be the GM or having final say isn’t. If it’s the latter then it’s just not a good fit for either side.
- Comment on [Charania] Celtics' Kristaps Porzingis suffered a torn medial retinaculum allowing dislocation of the posterior tibialis tendon. 2 weeks ago:
I have no idea what that means but it doesn’t sound good lol. Does that mean he’s out for the rest of the series?
- Comment on Plaschke: Dan Hurley rejection is another humiliation for Lakers brand 2 weeks ago:
IDK, this whole article seems to be based on conjecture to me. Maybe Hurley and his family like living in Connecticut, maybe he just prefers coaching college, maybe he just did the interview to get more money out of UCONN. It’d be embarrassing if he signed with anither NBA team but he stayed where he was.
People always overreact with the Lakers. People’s opinion on Palinka change with the wind. He’s done a decent job overall IMO.
- Comment on Plaschke: Dan Hurley rejection is another humiliation for Lakers brand 2 weeks ago:
OMG how will the city of Los Angeles live with such shame. Palinka should perform harakiri due the embarrassment he has brought from this failure.

Thibs need to get smarter about running guys into the ground.
He won’t, been doing this since his days as the Bulls HC over a decade ago.
- Comment on Possible foul on Brunson at end of game (not called) 1 month ago:
It was a foul but, he immediately hurled the ball up trying to get 3 FT or the 4pt play. If you really on the refs to bail you out vs playing to the whistle you leave your fate in someone else’s hands 🤷🏻.

Ah, I see the Sun’s are continuing with the “I’m a new owner and I’ll just spend my way to a championship” strategy. Bold move.

But… that’s the exact opposite of what actually happened. The PSN requirement was so buggy they had to disabled it for the have to work.

I didn’t think that’s necessarily true. They were contracted to make the game by Sony and when they started probably had no idea it would even be sold on PC.

Ok, good talk 🖖

By contrast, the Warriors showed that they’re far more interested in pursuing championships over doing the right thing.
What would have been the right thing in those instances. Isn’t winning championships the point and his antics in part, helped fuel the winning. Draymond definitely over did it but, he played the role the team needed him to play.

Excluding the last game we were talking about, they where shooting 30% for the season.

Lakers where shooting at historically low percentage from 3 at the begging of the season. So doing better than that won’t be hard lol.

Also, the league rules state that Harden had to travel with the team. Because something about Star player needing to be at every game just to wave at fans and what not. So someones getting fined due this lol
