    I see the east complaining about this quite a bit, but honestly, this would allow more East teams to get somewhat better draft lottery odds and positions than they currently do...

    I prefer keeping conferences. I also liked it better when the division champion got homecourt advantage.

    Now that the NBA is playing back-to-back games on the road in the same city, it seems a little more realistic. A 4 game road trip to Florida? (playing both teams twice on the same trip?)

    It’s really hard for some to give POR any credit. Dunno why

    Just realized the Blazers can’t fire Chauncey until after they trade the vets because to admit we’re doing a big coaching change would tank the value of our vets

    The trade value is already tanked so it doesn't matter.

    Which is fine. I'm not interested in punishing Chauncey.

    I want a plan in place to build the environment for a great development and coaching tree. Which probably can't happen with current ownership...but maybe...

    How about that Hornets starting backcourt tonight? 82 points and 12 made 3s. They must be thrilled they passed on Scoot.
