Btw I see the knicks are really zeroing I’m on Thibs coaching lol

I mean that might be good for Robinson and bust Nitilikina though
 
AP that Zion thing is a big reason why honestly based on what I read

I can’t remember if I actually sent the post but yesterday I was like Brandon Ingram probably sitting there like damn what about me? I was an actual all star
 
I don't disagree with your premise that they had more than enough games to figure shit out before worrying about the last 16 games of the season but I also understand where he is coming from. Portland has been banged up all season long and was still hanging around playoff contention. Those last 16 games for them could mean making the playoffs or missing it.

So why would they want to just play 4 or 5 games with no chance of making any ground toward making the playoffs while also putting their and their loved ones lives in danger? That's just a waste of their time and doing something potentially dangerous for nothing. If they are only playing enough games to get to 70 total and that's it then I kind of don't blame him for saying what he said.

The league should either do a play in tournament with the teams who weren't totally out of playoff contention for the 7th and 8th seeds or go straight to the playoffs with the teams who were slated to go there when the season got postponed. It helps cut back on all the people interacting

He's not saying anything about being worried about covid he's saying he doesn't want to play if he's not in the playoffs.

They can't let teams not play because of contract obligations. So should someone else risk their career to injury because Damian Lillard doesn't want to waste his time?

I'm definitely for a play in. I just don't think silver or the nbapa should be catering to niggas that's losing.

That shit is just sour grapes imo. He didn't even need to go public with the shit. You would expect teams not in contention to play their stars a lot less in the 5 games if there isn't a play in. This nigga flat out saying he refuses to participate when no even asked. Fuckboy behavior.

ehhh

i disagree

i think that the group play idea still gets some traction just based on how everything ended when it did.

Remind me, according to that chart, who would be the pels first matchup?
 
They should keep Mike Miller and make him the full time coach. But I guess Thibs is the flashy name so that will be the direction they go in.

I think it just had the five teams grouped but didn’t Tell you who would be first but I mean group play, a play in tournament, etc are methods to help include the pels
