2022 NBA OFF SEASON DRAFT FREE AGENCY TAMPERING ETC

The Cavs always have a shot at lebron’s free agency and their moves should be viewed in that context imo

feels like the clock is kinda ticking on that on both sides…

Have a feeling that the league is just going to let them take bronny in the first and that will be that

the cavs first just goes to the pacers next year now. its only lottery protected

Lonzo Ball is not expected to participate in Bulls training camp, per @JamalCollier and @ramonashelburne.

sad for him, he was balling. this feels like something he’s prob never gonna come fully back from

yeah that really sucks. he was going to have a long, long career assuming good health.

NBA May Soon Announce Seattle, Las Vegas Expansion Plans https://t.co/dKffcf36dd

— RealGM (@RealGM) September 7, 2022

The NBA is playing preseason games in Seattle and Las Vegas at the end of September and beginning of October. It may not be long before regular season games are played in both cities as well.

Willie Ramirez of the AP reports that sources have told him that the NBA wants to announce expansion plans to both Seattle and Las Vegas during this preseason.

watch one great WNBA series and start getting ideas, huh

nuggets better win the nba playoffs quickly if i'm getting my actual WC team back

havent looked into the sourcing but it doesnt feel quite right, seems like we wouldve heard more about this by now if they were really on the verge of announcing it

idk who willie ramirez is but i guess the tweet is gone

ah well nevertheless

seems kinda inevitable but i hate the idea of expansion. just move two teams out of two lame markets

Wish it were that easy, but potential conference realignments and lots of other franchise-specific business considerations make that pretty difficult.

just move two teams out of two lame markets

OKC and Memphis?

okc, charlotte, new orleans

sacramento surely

i am going to my usual coked up iconoclast self and say expansion is good, the league has a lot of talent

expansion is good from the pov of having more teams

i used to be mildly opposed to expansion, but the league is absolutely stacked with talent and i think it can absorb 2 new teams for sure.

I’d be interested in reading a long thing by someone smart weighing the pros and cons of this. presumably it’d benefit the league financially, and sure there is enough NBA talent to field another couple of teams. but the NBA is a star’s league and there aren’t really 32 stars with that kind of draw…and the way things have been trending with stars teaming up, it seems possible we’d just end up with 2 more really bad teams

i agree its preferable to move and change ownership of two shitty teams but that has more to do with the fact that there are shitty orgs/locations than anything else IMHO

the whole point of expansion is so that the owners can collect $5 billion or whatever the number will end up being for two new teams. saying you’d rather them relocate two bad franchises is like saying you’d rather the sky be green every day. i guess it will be interesting to see how you try and build a team up from zero nowadays but otherwise i’m ambivalent on it. seattle and vegas are at least two cool markets, better them than kansas city and louisville

very much looking forward to some minor conference realignment so, say, the team in Louisiana is not in “the west” etc

im ok with going to 32 but no further, after that they need to move teams

its a power of 2 you gotta stop there

saying you’d rather them relocate two bad franchises is like saying you’d rather the sky be green every day

wow ok

they should move the spurs to the eastern conference again while they're at it

throwback hell yeah

Add 2 teams AND move the thunder to KC

still would like to see a nashville team

two teams in TN would be wild

they let f'n george karl into the hall of fame? good lord.

ridiculous

damn the lad is now canceled

fuuuuck

I’m shocked!

macho guy is homophobic

smh

fwiw:

What I said was immature, hurtful, and disrespectful, and I’m incredibly sorry. It’s unacceptable for me or anyone to use that language in such a hurtful way, there’s no excuse for it, at all. I was raised better than that!

— Anthony Edwards (@theantedwards_) September 11, 2022

really disappointing, what a shitty thing to say, shame on the lad

it sucks too he's really lucky gonna get a total break on this esp in the local media because of week 1 nfl and the vikings beating the packers, this is as probably as off the radar as hoops is all year

hope he goes the tim hardaway route and uses this to truly better himself

i hereby sentence him to corporate sensitivity training for the crime of doing a slur on social media
