One thing i wish the nba would consider and do is after CFB and NFL saturday playoff games are over they would showcase more saturday basketball at different times in the day instead of basically always starting at 7pm.

This coming saturday is a prime example of how the NBA can continue to showcase GREAT NBA Basketball.

You could have a saturday slate like this and call it "Playoff Preview Saturday"

Raptors at Wizards - noon TNT

Okc at Memphis - 2:30 TNT

Clippers at Spurs - 5:30 ABC/ESPN

Suns at Warriors - 8:30 ESPN.

having a featured slate of games like this would be wonderful and continue to provide boost and ratings the NBA needs.

:laff: @ talking about Saturday afternoon ratings

if you ain't know, College Basketball runs shyt on Saturdays. Belee dat :birdman:

This is some hindsight 20/20 sh*t. Marc was a project and nobody knew if he was gonna be good much less good as his brother. Plus Zbo was damn near a journeyman and a 'risky player' round that time in his career. Ya'll still tryin' to spin this laughable trade huh:comeon:
isn't this typically the case when you trade for young players? :mindblown:



z-bo was traded for q-rich and and 2nd round pick. there was only 2 years left on his deal. if it didn't work out in year 1, he turns into an expiring. there was no risk involved.

lmao at hindsight. every trade is hindsight. if you said vucevic would put up better numbers than a prime dwight howard you're a fukking liar.

On what planet does a trade need to pay equal dividends AT THE SAME TIME for both teams?

Memphis was losing 60 games with pau eating 18 mil

You gotta be a fool to say Memphis didn't win with the trade. All this "hindsight" shyt is irrelevant

Just because you didn't know marc gasol would be a beast don't make it a bad trade

FACT is they got a defensive player of the year and cap flexibility to get zbo

Man Marc was an afterthought and a throw in.. The headline was Pau Gasol for Kwame Brown- with The Logo as the GM for the Grizzles everybody felt he helped his old franchise out plus he was close to Kobe who was actually thinking about moving over to the Clippers. But Jerry West looked out and the Lakers kept rollin to more rings and fame. The Grizz still haven't won sh*T. They still haven't won a ring. All this Memphis won talk is bull:beli:

Marc wasn't sh*t and Zbo wasn't sh*t at that present time. They gradually became something in Memphis over the course of time. It was more luck than actual great scouting and GM moves. There was no, "oh we're losing a young all star in Pau but Marc is coming and we'll be acquiring Zbo so we'll be straight for years to come". If we didn't draft Blake we would've more than likely kept Zbo.

Pat too real. Harden always getting in dude face when he getting at the opposition. He did the same thing suring the bev-westbrook battle. He doesnt do that shyt to Jason terry who is just as animated as Bev. Imagune if we had both bev and Stephenson on the same squad.

I feel like Bevs passion for the game plays a big role on the identity of this team. Just got that dog in him. You u cant keep him down

When is Orlando gonna fire Jacque Vaughn? Why the hell is Tobias Harris coming off the bench? There is no reason for them to be this bad.
