Real tough. Those trades made them deeper. They're 2 deep at every position. Powell looks like 6th man of the year, Plumlee, Hyland, and Gordon are great pickups, and Kawhi is rounding back in form. The West is a blood bath this year.

Mikal Bridges had a career high 45 pts including 15 pts in a row in a 116-105 win over the Heat. Looks like he's going like his new role.

Watching this Phx vs LAC game, I'm starting to think Ayton/Okogie/any seconds they have left might not be such a bad return for Kyrie since the Suns don't have any firsts to give and I have no interest in CP3.

You see why I'm a big Ayton fan?
Now the real test is to find a trade package to add Ayton to both Luka and Kyrie. F the Suns.

Tired of beating the JB drum, but Lowe speaks truth here.

I assume the money will be split between the American citizens that have to carry the weight of the gambling BS of the rich, whether it´s Subprime or Crypto. LOL.

It's sooooooooooo good for the league to have one of its premier head coaches openly trash the ASG, lament even having to go, and then have all of their players go out and not give a shit the entire time.
Malone is right, there is no fixing it because to fix it requires an attitude shift from then players. Silver is too loose with this BS. Stern never would've put up with it. Come to think of it the ASG kind of started going downhill around 2015 when Stern retired...

And the actual game wasn´t even the worst part of the weekend. Is Silver suffering from amnesia or have they finally given up on virtue signalling?

I don't think they've given up on their conquest to virtue signal, but Bomani makes a great point. If Malone wasn't there, it'd draw WAY more attention as to why he wouldn't be there. And it'd drum up the controversy the NBA is actively trying to sweep under the rug.
As opposed to just inviting him and having him avoid as many mics as possible and then let him quietly go away.
If they actually had values they'd have not invited him, but virtue signaling is a way to make money for the NBA, not a moral compass.
I mean did you also see that commercialistic ASG MVP moment where Silver stumbled over his words making sure the sponsor was happy KIA was mentioned for the millionth time in those last 10 seconds? The KIA exec was standing over Silver with a disgruntled face the whole time. It's disgusting how hard he shills for sponsorships.

Karl Malone is a piece of shit.

I'll never forget a game I saw when Detroit was at Utah in the late '80s. And Isiah Thomas was giving Stockton the business, he had like 38 in three quarters, and he drove the lane once and Malone clotheslined him with a vicious elbow that caused him to get 40 stitches. You can still see the scar over one of his eyelids. A brawl ensued shortly after. Never liked him after that, not to mention he's a pedophile who inpregnated a 13 yr old girl.
