Man when ownership promise one thing and then do the exact opposition right away, you feel some type of way.


Tilman Fertitta did the same thing to the Houston Rockets. He said he wasn’t worried about the tax and was going to run it back after they took GSW to 7 games. Trevor Ariza even was going to take the less money than what Sacramento offered to stay and he still wouldn’t pay the man. Signed flabby ass Carmelo and James Ennis.

It’s why you never ever believe ownership when they say that they’ll pay whatever it takes to keep the team together as things always change when the bill comes due.

Yep.

A lot of these owners don't actually like basketball on some real shyt, and just see the team as a trophy to flaunt infront of their billionaire friends.

Outside of Balmer/Guber/Lacob, these dudes are cheap af

82 games is genuinely a lot of games. At some point I think even I as an NBA fan will lose interest in the day to day games.
Two and a half hours per broadcast x 82 games for my team plus any other games I might want to watch is a lot of time lost

Facts. I just don't have it in me to be a die hard any more. The season is far too long and just too much content. Add in all the injuries and rarely seeing teams at full strength and it's not worth the time investment. And I used to watch every Laker game regardless and usually one other a night.

I mean I consider myself a die hard and I don’t watch all 82 Celtic games or watch games every night in general

I don’t think it’s a realistic expectation for someone who isn’t paid to watch

Last 3 minutes of Hornets/Knicks heading into halftime

 

[Damnshow]

Why would they play the game so early

 

[Henry Orbit]

Hornets, just hurry up and trade Micic to Denver. Dude is selling to play with his Serbian buddy Jokic

So I won't do shyt for the rest of the day
