NBA 2021

[RHR Fan Always]

Do we have a thread yet for this!? If not, I'm excited for the season to start tonight. I didn't watch much regular season last year, but enjoyed the playoffs.

Let the fun begin tonight!

I really don't care for the NBA, but the recent success of my home-area Sixers had drawn me back. But now, the whole Ben Simmons saga is putting a chill on my fandom again. Simmons is a very talented player, an elite defender with tremendous size at the point. But he has some giant holes in his game. Instead of trying to improve his game, he's pouted and has tried to force a trade. Sixer's management doesn't want to give a player of his talent away. He finally reported to camp just before the start of the season and proceeded to act like a spoiled brat. Doc Rivers suspended him. The Sixers have to deal him at this point and will be lucky to get anywhere near fair value.

Phoenix Suns! It is your turn to be tarred and feathered! Please step into the chamber!

Listened to ESPN radio this morning and got to hear brainiacs such as Keyshawn Johnson explain how racist the team owner is because there are some things white guys aren’t allowed to say. 🤔

Then Jay Williams told us “you know what he said because it’s what old white guys say”. 🤔

LeBron, the big baby:

What a little *****.

Word is, these hillbillies told LeBron they “hoped Bronny dies in a car wreck”

Bronny is LeBron’s son. They crossed the line. They needed ejected and hopefully banned from future games.

Disparaging LeBron over this is childish and classless. He had every right to have those 2 tossed

I don’t know what was said, but other than continuing to mock LeBron on their way out they didn’t protest at all as they were being ejected. 🤔

I’m from Cleveland so I have love/hate/love/hate feelings about James.

But I think he handled this the right way rather than taking the Artest approach.

I prefer the adult way which is to just play your game. Or the Jordan way which was to crank it up a notch just to spite you. Lebron handled it like a little baby.

You don’t know what was said either.
