Around the NBA: Week 15 (1/27 - 2/2)

Nico, man. Nico.

Mam the body language of Kidd is devastating. It's like he is not even there. This GM has made Luka Doncic a Laker. There is no way to damage control this.

[ShelC]

It's impressive Kidd even sat there. He's part of the damage control because not being there would've been a really bad (but right) look.

Feel bad for him in this situation.

[Wally_West]

I’m surprised he didn’t choke Nico out, he’s choked people over French fries before

[Ring_Wanted]

And the tone of Harrison. Sounds like a man who has been paid to lie in front of the police. Or held for ransom.

[JeremyG]

If it wasn't rigged, the league would have used their veto power to stop the trade. Lol.

[Superbone]

He's matured.

I think part of the ratings problems is that they make it too complicated and expensive to watch games. Way easier right now to just go to a streaming site like *******, *********,**********, *********.

I know this doesn't work with ISP's from the USA, but not sure about other countries. Could also use a VPN to route through Korea. The 4 box feature is great. Other possible downside is most big games have the Korean commentary, but I don't miss Burke or Miller either.

Ten expansion teams? You think that's practical? I don't.

Although where to put them is a fun exercise. Seattle, Vegas, San Diego, St Louis, Kansas City, Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Monterrey, Montreal?

Players who don't know Spanish/French might not like being traded to Monterrey/Montreal... I guess those are bad ideas.

I guess you didn't read everything that I wrote about it, and how with the emergence of supersonic commercial flights, they could begin expansion into Europe, or even Asia. I doubt that they would open up most of the teams in the US, probably 2 at the most(Seattle & Las Vegas).

Is the players association okay with that? It’s one thing to be traded to Detroit, it’s another to be traded to Moscow. Can you give players veto powers over international trades, or is potentially being traded anywhere in the world now part of the job?

It's all about money, and the league is moving more and more to an international league. All you have to do is pay off or whatever the players leadership.
