Good man i guess im out of the loop. Theyve been operating like they were still under Abramovich.

As for managers not coming. I dont think that will be an issue unfortunately. Every top manager is pretty egoristical. U kind of need to be to become a top manager. Id imagine most will see the track record, but also see that they would be able to spend like city and think

"I'm going to be the one to turn it around. I'll win big and become a legend"

What consequences? As long as they spend 70% or less of their revenue (fpp or financial fair play) they can spend as much as abramovich (the owner) wants. Abramovich has deep pockets and is passionate abt winning if not ill advised on his decision making. Theres nothing to stop him from spending. The revenue doesnt seem to be suffering despite their lack of success the last cpl seasons

Dont think it will be that easy. I really disliked kyrie for most of his career, but hes shown incredible growth in the 1 area he lacked on the court: leadership. Even when he wasnt scoring, he was playing tough defense, dishing the rock, and empowering his younger players to lay it out thre on the floor, make or miss, because its probably a good shot. While i agree luka needs to stfu sometimes, hes mostly injured this series. If he can get a bit healthy i dont think den or min will easily steamroll the mavs

Sure bro. Pretty clear that you're viewing it with a bias off the rip. Looks pretty benign to me. Hell ive seen something similar happen in a game i played in before. I genuinely wonder if u would say the same shit if it happened to someone else.

Yup i agree. Hes fighting through contact. Arm gets stuck. He removes it. Draymond rightfully has a reputation, but this isnt dirty. The nba in general needs to let stuff like this go and allow physical play from both offense and d.
