I’m not feeling Wade love. For starters there’s all the Miami NY Knicks hate flowing from Pat the Rat

And Wade always seemed to be more snide than diplomatic when talking about Knicks and FA

Not disrespecting his talent though

Giannis turned down a role in Space Jam 2. Also love his no frills focus. He's no prima donna that's for sure. Wish more superstars were like this instead of the divas we have all over the NBA. Don't get me wrong, there's a place for the fashion shows and roles in hollywood, etc. But at least for some, I can't imagine it would not take away from focus on winning a title. The amount of energy some of these divas put into their fashion statements, goes to show they're not about winning titles. Lebron can handle it, Durant can handle it obviously. Wish more were Giannis like in their approach.


-------------------

Antetokounmpo's eccentricities are a matter of efficiency, not superstition. Like Barack Obama and Steve Jobs before him, the 24-year-old All-Star aims to eliminate all unnecessary decisions and distractions. Instead of a blue suit or a black turtleneck, Antetokounmpo favors Nike Tech Fleece sweatsuits and has no interest in joining the NBA's nightly pregame fashion shows.

"I just want to win," Antetokounmpo says. "All that other stuff takes away from the game, and you just spend extra energy on looking good for five seconds. I don't care about that. I just want to look good on the court. Get the win and go back home and lay on my couch and just watch game film. That's it."

Red Wedding day with the SAC Kings today. Divac fires his assistant, coach, and head of media. He got a 4 year extension himself.
Cites rift between assistant and coach so he can's both. Kings finished a distant 9th but outperformed most expecations.
Dude must have some mojo on his owner. Nalod don't know who to "Blame" but Vlade got lots of pulp in his juice card!!

Kings are ridiculous when it comes to coaches, that’s the second time they’ve fired one who did well for BS reasons

They let a good one go in Malone! Divas has some personality issues. Can’t say he is doing a bad job but the consolidation of power and frequent dismissals are interesting.

yes this seems completely ridiculous. Admittedly Joegger seems to be throwing of a George Karl vibe as he seems to rub upper mgmt the wrong way; but especially this season he demonstrated he could squeeze a lot of juice out of that orange. Winning plus player development, plus handling personalities.

For all of my criticisms of Knicks FO, they are miles ahead of Sac
