    The NBA is cracking down on 'tanking'.
    About time.

      The fine means nothing. A top pick in this years draft is worth a lot more. Best draft in years.

        Who is going to fine the NBA for rigging the draft where the team with best odds never wins the "lottery"?

            It's not just you.

            The Association just took a week off from the regular season for their annual All-Star festivities, and nobody noticed.

            What's just as pathetic is that the NBA returns tonight, and nobody cares.

            Kevin McHale summed it up perfectly a few years back.
            McHale said the difference between my playing days and what's going on today is,

            "When the Pistons bus pulled into the old Boston Garden, I couldn't wait for Laimbeer to step off the bus, I couldn't wait for the game to start to tangle with that jackass (paraphrasing there)
            Now, every player gathers at the midcourt circle for a group hug, singing Kumbaya."

              Yep. All about the $$$.

              When you look at the $$ the average mediocre player is getting it's ludicrous. There's tons but Luke Kornet 40M for 4. Porzingas , what's his $$ per game played?? and on and on.

              And don't get me going on regular season effort versus the playoffs.

                How bad is Phx? Losing to Portland who looked like the worst NBA team ever against the C's a few weeks ago.

                C's a moderately talented (Well coached, hard trying) team bludgeoned Port a few weeks ago.

                They made Junkic look like a fool last night. They put their 3 young defensive studs? on him and pressured him full court. He was physically done by half time. The West D is a JOKE defensively. Maybe outside OKC??

                LAL physical conditionally is a JOKE!!!
