That is inane. Teaching people to be hypersensitive to any possible interpretation of a normal word that could by construed to be politically incorrect is not actually a good thing to do. Also, there is lying involved, because these guys do actually own the teams and that is the basis of their power. May as well be clear about it.
 
I am not so sure that was Kyrie. Something about that guys voice sounded different. It was close, unless Kyrie was trying to make it sound a little different. The guy sounded a little dumber than the way Kyrie talks. Kyrie does a lot of dumb things but he is pretty well spoken.

I think disguising your voice sounds like that. More stilted not naturally speaking. It sounds a lot like Kyrie. Lol
 
Oh Espn and this pushing for Kawhi to go to the Clippers. Just like they did with Lebron and the Lakers last year. Just like they did with AD getting traded to the Lakers. Just shitting all over the Raptors and their fans when they do that. Wtf is their deal? I know LA is glam town and all that but come on. 95 percent of the Nba fanbase does not want to see every damn superstar play in LA. They are so giddy and excited for June 30th they can hardly contain themselves. It makes me sick.

I really hate how the media has straight disrespected the Raptors with the unending AD speculation right after the chip. It was exactly the same way because of Durant after we won.

It's as if the Raps didn't pull off something special here, and it is time to move on. You barely get 2 days of coverage.
 
If we're going to nitpick words, Draymond's solution of using "chairman" is bone-headed.

Given the Bay's population, it's also arguably as bad a "when in Rome" look as Mark Jackson's comments about gays.
 
Fascinating article by Zach Lowe on Brooklyn's possible choice of signing / pursuing Kyrie vs re-signing DeAngelo Russell:


He makes the case for going for Kyrie (narrowly), but IMO their best move is to stick with Russell in order to preserve their positive team chemistry. Kyrie is a team cancer who is not skilled enough to take you to a championship, bad combo.

As the article points out, it would have been different if Kyrie could have gotten you a pre-injury Kevin Durant, but that's not possible now.

They’re gonna sign Kyrie still. They may even sign KD too.

The Knicks had supreme confidence as recently as the day before KD got hurt that he was coming. Like, 95% type of confidence.

Much closer to 50/50 than they had planned for. The injury changed everything. Durant to the Nets smoke is very very real. That’s all I can say on it at the moment.
 
I worry about Kemba to the Celtics.

I want them to suck for the rest of eternity.
