Oh c'mon... A'ja Wilson is like Moses Malone... before MJ (Caitlin).

A'ja is a phenomenal basketball player but boring AF, and there ain't nobody calling Moses the GOAT.

You're supposed to be a Hoosier, and blaspheming! Fo' shame! Tongue

Caitlin hasn't reached GOAT status yet.  She may get there one day.

Teams with the most televised games for 24/25. The Lakers lead the way, no surprise there.

I applaud the no 4 in 5 nights schedule. 

I'm guessing the league is trying to eliminate "rest" reasons for star players missing games. Especially televised ones.

GOAT Clark demolished the Phoenix Mercury for the 3rd time this season... with 29 points, 10 assists and 5 rebounds. The Mercury dun got SWEPT. Big Grin

If I could, I'd buy a vacation home in Indianapolis and front-court seats for every Fever game. This is history in the making.

Bro, let's start a GoFundMe to buy the Indiana Fever! Tongue

I will have to be the GM though, so we can put a 6-peat team around my girl GOAT Clark. Cool

Jeff Bezos has no interest in the Celtics.

I was listening to bill Simmons podcast from a few weeks ago.  He was saying the asking price for the Celtics is 6 billion.  He thought they would get it.  He said the expansion teams (Seattle and Vegas, with Mexico City maybe in the furture) would be 6 billion.   He said if this happens each team would get 400 million.   

With the new TV deal, the Mavs run and and maybe now expansion, it certainly feels like Cuban left money on the table.  Thoughts?

I believe he did also.  Mavs could be one of the most valuable franchises in the league, on par with NY, Boston, and the LA Lakers, and a few others. It all depends how much more Dumont wants to invest in them.
