You are making assumptions too. I didn't say all the players would make $1M, I said hypothetically would Giannis look at $1M vs $50M and choose the $1M. The point was that the new league would take...
Booooooooooring game
Someone will be. Not so much me.
There would be investors sure, but the investment to compete is going to be HUGE and you are not going to be able to keep 100% of the top players long. How many teams are you thinking? How much...
I don't think Jeanie is LeBron's lapdog.
I suspect that talk is all just Marc Spears making a story where there isn't one. In his original piece he mentioned the Warriors and KD then later says essentially half the NBA is looking into it...
Everybody is beatable.
No. It's literally one writer spreading ****.
I think it's total BS. Marc Spears is playing fast an loose to get clicks.
Plus can you imagine KD having to deal with Philly fans? Players they LOVE get **** on all day, what do you think would happen to sensitive KD?
Uh ... no.
Creating 30ish teams (to have a place for all those players), 30 new arenas to play in, for 1200ish dates, selling TV rights to those games, making new merch and all that. It will cost a HUGE amount...
As I said somewhere else, every team should have checked on what it would take ... that can count as interested if you are trying to be manipulative.
2nd round picks included? And swaps are probably counted too.
To me there is a BIG difference between going somewhere as a free agent and demanding a trade.
Yeah, I don't think there really is anyone of particular interest on the SL roster that I like beyond Wiseman, Moody, Kuminga, PBJ, Rollins, Gui, Quinones. And more than half are not going to play...
Celtics fans have a lot of love for the Celtics that's for sure.
I wasn't disagreeing, I was extending it.
And why would I want to be someone else?
Okay. For what it's worth, Summer league competition is higher than college competition, and if you can't see anything in a player playing well in garbage time that's kind of a shame.
Did anyone...
Durant hasn't played 1 minute on his contract let alone a year.
Have we ever seen a spin off league start with all the players? I think that would be a very interesting thing to see.
You know there are already a lot of rules in place that make it cost players money to move right? They are just talking about adding more. Or making it cost more for other owners to take players...
Yes. Of course if the owners fired all the players they could have their rosters full tomorrow too. The show would be a lot worse for several years, but the league that gets the players would also...
Ant is a star, Kyle is a better glue guy ... DLo is the problem.
