Every Portland timeout this series, I always gotta see Javale McGee face

I'd much rather prefer Seattle get an expansion team instead of one getting moved over. Just wouldn't feel right with the way it went down with the Thunder (though I wouldn't mind them stealing the Thunder back lol).

Seattle kept the Sonics name. Thunder should go back to Seattle tbh

That make up wearing clown, A-Rod is wrong to want to move the team to Seattle - especially how Oklahoma was wrong to take the Sonics.

If anything the OKC team should be moved back to Seattle and an expansion team should take its place.

Thunder had their chance. They blew it. Time to go back home.

Thunder mgmt is useless. Got all superstars but couldn't win a championship. Franchise deserve extinction.

Yikes it got ugly, real quick. 10 points in a quarter.

*Washington Wizards have entered the chat*
Ben Wallace
Rasheed Wallace
Chris Webber
Juwan Howard

Couple lesser stars
Rod Strickland, Leglar, Mark/Brent Price, Robert Pack

Dudes had some of the best bigs in an era where it wanted bigs. Bullets coughed it up every year, not saying win a title but make the playoffs.

Well damn..

Brad Stevens will transition from his role as Celtics head coach to become Boston's head of basketball operations, The Athletic's Shams Charania reported Wednesday. Stevens will replace Danny Ainge, who plans to resign as Celtics president of basketball operations, per Charania.

Sports Illustrated's Chris Mannix reported earlier Wednesday that Ainge isn't expected to retire, so he may seek an NBA opportunity elsewhere after serving as Boston's de facto general manager since 2003.

Well damn..

Wild. Did not see this coming.

 

[pmatic]

Changes had to be made after this season.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Of course all the Boston hire rumors are black

Gotta get that good PR after last week.

They’re going to get real nasty and interview all of these Black coaches and then hire Becky Hammon during Pride

[osh kosh bosh]

random:

Chris Bosh was pretty clearly low key insulted when Bill Simmons compared him to Jaren Jackson Jr.

had to remind him Bill he was an All star by 21.

Big Brains Brad was tired of the pump faking too huh

 

[bostoiah]

Stevens probably preferred to keep IT im guessing lol

Probably. Him and Kyrie had a pretty lukewarm embrace last night after the L

*Edit: story is apparently made up. But damn, it could be true

Lawd! They did Ainge like Alonzo in training day.

 

[wavycrocket]

Thread title needs an update MVP . Way too close to the Playoff thread.

 

[RustyShackleford]

Ainge really tried to form a posse to go confront Kyrie

Mans denying racism out of one side of his mouth, yet trying to live out his Jim Crow fantasies post game
