    gobert, mitchell, o’neale, niang, ingles….all gone.

    I don’t trust or like danny ainge. he gets some leeway here in utah but for me he will always carry the stench of BYU.
    If I had known then what I know now...

    I can't remember, did Mitchell formally request a trade? Or was it just implied that Utah better trade him so that they don't lose him for nothing at his next free agency time?

    he did not. he wanted gobert gone and that happened. he probably wasn't happy about quin snyder leaving but the trade thing was all ainge's doing. donovan was signed thru 2025-26.

    Rumor is Donovan Mitchell will be a Knick by end of today...
    I wrote this a few weeks ago and we are still getting all sorts of rumblings about it.  Mitchell will be a Knick.


    About that....



    My first reaction: That looks like a good Trade for Utah.
    All depends on where those picks end up. NBA 1st rounders are really only super valuable when at least top 10, usually top 5. If Cleveland becomes a perennial playoff team and those picks are all in the 20's, it's a lousy trade for Utah. And Danny Ainge loves to hoard late 1st round picks and draft useless draft and stash guys.
    True, but with all of the First Round picks they have(Gobert Trade too) they can use in trades(either for establish players or to move up in the Draft).

    Yeah, but again as I mentioned, look at Danny Ainge's recent history. He hasn't moved his extra first rounders and they ended up far less valuable.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    The notion of the US EVER losing an olympic game makes me cringe.  I wonder if this shows how/why we lost those previous games.

    Ime Udoka being suspended for a year is one of the stupidest sports disciplinary actions I've ever seen.

    So what? It's not like he coerced her into it, promised advancement in the organization for doing it, threatened her if she wouldn't do it, or paid her hush money like Vince McMahon. Any of those things would be different.

    It may be stupid but it is a rule in pretty much every company.  If you work for someone ask HR about it and see what they say.

    Okay as long as you agree it's stupid. But no, I'm not going to go ask HR about it. Michael and Jan having to disclose their relationship to Toby is already proof enough.

    lol, It can be viewed as an abuse of power.

    Funny thing I remember was Phil Jackson dating Jinny Bus.  Nothing happened to either of them...

    Yeah but in situation, the woman is the higher-ranking person within the organization. So I guess that's okay?

    I don't think either one was getting a higher position, lol.  Jinny was GM and Phil was coach and at that time Phil wasn't planning on being a GM.

    I'm just saying that because you brought up "dating someone under him" regarding Udoka. Phil was under Jeanie (not Jinny).

    I like to say Jinny as if I know her so stop it.

    Again, I don't think those two positions would fall under the rules?  It's not like one was a secretary or trainer.  It's the only thing I can think of when no one was reprimanded or the NBA is under a bigger microscope now.

    Likely the latter considering some recent scandals like the Mavericks.
