itt fans of non-playoff teams chatter about the off season (2013)

in other news

Brian Windhorst ‏@WindhorstESPN 48s
Just filed to http://ESPN.com : Sources tell ESPN a committee of NBA owners voted against moving the Kings to Seattle today.

not good news for Milwaukee :(

multiple sources reporting jesus considering offers to trade chris broussard to another religion

i wouldn't be surprised if chris broussard was outed at some point

smh dayo

speaking as a straight guy but the "lol he's probably closeted himself" tack that some people are given to seems like counterproductive bullying to me

well it's kinda what i think whenever i see somebody openly speaking out against this stuff, we've seen it a lot with republican politicans. didn't mean to offend + bully, if it was taken that way then I apologize

its pretty wrongheaded in that it places the blame of homophobia directly on (presumably closeted) gays

well... (presumably closeted) gays who take loud public stances against gay rights. but yeah i can see that.

i'm straight btw

fuck broussard, there are so many more significant public figures in sports and beyond who have voiced their support that i don't even want to talk about him

Kevin Pelton ‏@kpelton 1h
.@jaygraybay TV deal expires after 2015-16 season. The last renewal came the previous June, or June 2015 in this timeline.

Reiterates expansion doesn't make sense until the league knows what the new TV deal looks like.

Marc Stein: Rumblings persist Suns haven't hired GM yet because they remain hopeful Clips' Grant Hill, out of playoffs now, returns to PHX to take job

Stan Van Gundy to the Bucks? Please??

If I'm Grant Hill I say "haha no" to that offer.

isn't Grant Hill 40 now? if I were him, I'd peace out and enroll in business school

Phoenix has hired Celtics assistant GM Ryan McDonough as its new general manager.

Brandon Roy was waived by the Twolves yesterday. You knew it was coming. It was crazy of him to think he could overcome bone-on-bone knees through pure strength of will. I wish him all the best. He was a magnificent player before his knees got used up.

Hawk's are going after Stan Van which I'm guessing is apart of some hope of landing Dwight. Either way I'm all about it.

u mean hope of repelling dwight right?

Q: The playoffs are in full swing and what are the stories getting big local play for the blazers?

A: New assistant coach hired and the trainer let go. These two were on the front page of the Oregonian newspaper's sports section. Actual NBA playoffs were relegated to an inside page and got about 1/6 the number of inches.

this offseason is going fucking GREAT

nuggets will win the nba playoffs

between dwight, cp3 and bynum i think this offseason could be more interesting than the lebron year

pretty sure this broussard 'cp3s feelings are hurt' story is some bullshit and he re-signs with the clippers.. dwight is another fucking story. that guy needs to gtfola

i think cp3 will re-sign too but i wouldn't be shocked if the clippers just screwed it all up

it is the clippers after all
