- League pass would include EVERY game. Make it easier for fans to watch. - Remove 65 game rule for awards - Contracts not tied to awards - No tech for hanging on rim, celebrating, trash talking, etc - 60-90 second limit for reviews or call stands - No back-to-backs
Replying to @DrewHanlen
If you were the NBA commissioner, what new rules would you make or the existing rules you would change?

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?

Politics can rot people's brains to the point that they'll oppose good ideas if they come from the 'wrong people' and support bad ideas if they come from the 'right people'.

i think the NBA should hold a throwback night, where they make players from the 90s sit and watch random regular season games from the 90s on live TV and explain exactly why they think that version of basketball is better.
Draymond is 100% right. We run one play 95% of the time. Pick and Roll, pick and space, pick and target. Off the ball plays are non existent. Players are being used like robots and given a title, 3 and D, what the heck is that. I was a ball player. The physicality is gone,

The NBA is setting 65.4 picks per 100 possessions this season -- the lowest frequency in Second Spectrum's 12-year database. The NBA's average pick-up distance is 42.0 ft -- the highest distance in Second Spectrum's 12-year database. There's less PnR & more pressure.

He keeps a journal. He has a Burn Book. He pays pros in the summer to be his full-time defenders. It took Payton Pritchard four seconds to become a Finals legend. The previous 23:56 armed him with all the motivation he needed to break out this season. My story is below 👇

Uh see it’s uh I’m not uh on the contract….
REPORTER: If you have received billions of dollars in contracts from the Pentagon and the president is directing you to look into the DoD, does that present a conflicts of interest? MUSK: First of all, I'm not the filing the contract. It's people at SpaceX

CFPB - closed USAID - closed Medicaid - under attack NIH cancer funding - frozen Department of Education - under attack But do you know who just got a NEW government contract for $38,858,978 literally today? SpaceX — owned by Elon Musk

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

They can DOGE all they want but it won’t make much difference if we don’t cut military spending and foreign military aid. But they know that—it’s all performative .

NEW STORY: Kristaps Porzingis said he was speechless to hear about the Mavericks trade. He believes it’s “the craziest trade in NBA history.” He also thinks his old teammate Luka Doncic could benefit from playing alongside LeBron. “That could really benefit his career, and there’s somebody that, how he takes care of his body, the length of his career and all this, I think there’s a lot of things he’ll be able to learn if he wants to.” Link to the full story below 👇
