the hawks are a case study in why you don't overreact to a fluke playoff run.

Not sure if the problem is org, coaching, or the core pieces but the Hawks have a lot of talent that seem like they'll crush elsewhere but they just suck together.

That's even worse than what Pete Rose did. IIRC at least he never bet against his own team. This asshole did. We don't know if Rose bet against the Reds. He originally denied the claims of betting, but was quick to agree to be put on the banned list to stop the investigation and that the MLB would make no public finding. He spent years saying that he didn't bet, then when he had a book to sale said he did bet on baseball. He said he bet on the Reds every game, but Jon Dowd (the lead investigator for MLB) said that Rose didn't be on the Reds every night.

Admirable that he played the entire game with it, he was clearly hobbled too. Sucks if he's unable to play, that gives Chicago a legit shot if he can't.

Shit, when's the last time we had a lifetime ban in the NBA? I was curious so I looked it up. OJ Mayo was banned in 2016 but he was eligible to apply for reinstatement starting in 2018 and doesn't appear to have tried just playing overseas instead. Before that was Donald Sterling when he was forced to sell the Clippers in 2014. For players it appears before Mayo the last time was 1995 when both Richard Dumas and Roy Tarpley were banned for repeated violations of the substance abuse policy.

Feels... wrong to not have one of the games tonight IMHO. One of the biggest issues with the NBA is so many off days. I also hate the 2 days off between games in the same city. You should be able to play more than 2 games in 6 days.

Yea, playoffs should not last more than 2 months Your rest periods should be between series if you get the chance but the whole point of changing series a few years ago was to speedline this shit.

They'll never do it because of greed, but the First Round needs to go back to Best of 5. And less chance for injuries and bad basketball.

Agreed, first round should def be a best of 5 But money talks and they not doing that. They found a way to do a mini playoffs with the Play In (Which damn near every major league has now) on top of the in season tournament

Also "Your tournament has a tournament!!" I'm surprised that the Players Association went for that. See my draconian ass would strictly go 16 teams and copy the NHL's format of either re-seeding or get rid of the 3rd division and do straight up divisional playoffs, Campbell/Prince of Wales style.

Just give the Spurs Toronto's FRP and we'll be fine. The rate the Raptor's season of hell has been. The Spurs are totally getting the 6th overall pick in the 2024 draft from the Raptors.

Terry Rozier also out for tomorrow. If the Heat win without both of them, Riley and Spo need to be studied in a lab.
The East is a lot more unpredictable than early in the year. Giannis hurt. Indiana went from being on fire and adding Siakam to going cold as can be. The 76ers are getting healthy at the right time.

The Toronto pick is top 6 protected so, if that happens, the Raptors keep the pick. If the pick drops to #7 or lower, it goes to San Antonio.

Healthy, did you see Embiid the other night, he is on fumes, if you call that healthy, I hate to see what you consider un healthy.
