    We need to look for the next Sabonis. A 3-5 who has worn out his welcome and the team is looking at another position to start over. Anfernee Simons can go there.

    Been saying for years now that the NBA should just allow hand checking.

    How about calling travelling/carrying? It's egregious.

    Just fire the human refs, use AI, turn down the sliders and call it good.

    I'm tired of the egos on these guys.

    Problem is they’ll probably play Boston in the 2nd round. Stephen A not thinking straight.

    Stephen A is the biggest Knicks homer with a microphone. Every good player to hit the trade market should play for the Knickerbockers. If they land elsewhere, it ruins their career.

    I know what you meant but I like the idea of Allen Iverson becoming a ref.

    This dumbass says he doesn't give a shit but makes a 10 minutes monologue to say it. I have seen more coherent behaviour

    Bring over some Euro-refs. They're used to having coins and batteries thrown at them, they won't be fazed by whiny NBA players.

    the Pelicans starting lineup tonight:

    6'8
    6'8
    6'8
    6'6
    6'11

    they won by 23 in NY but Neil Olshey says that tall a lineup will never work

    Blazers can use a similar lineup:

    Banton 6'9
    Camara 6'7
    Murray 6'9
    Walker 6'9
    Reath 6'10

    Is there a Pelicans game on tap? It would be stretchiest arms & legs battle of the season. Stacy Augmon would approve.
