Such a shame.

At least when the Warriors openly did this for Harrison Barnes in the 2012 season, they had enough decency to pretend they weren't tanking.

I got on here to mention that lol, looking at the lineups the Mavs have been playing in close games makes it obvious they wanna tank. The Kings have been(and should continue to) rest vets here and there but they still don't intentionally put out shitty lineups late to lose. They're bad enough to lose more often than not which is expected of a mostly young/inexperienced team, but they might be not bad enough to secure a top 3 pick if guys like Fox, Bogdan, WCS, and Buddy play well. It's tough because I know the best chance the Kings have of becoming a contender is drafting a superstar and those are usually at the top of the draft, but you also don't want rookies to intentionally play like crap because it'll give them a losing mentality and the goal is to build a winning culture. I hope the Mavs fall in the lottery because of this.

Dude, starting Dirk @ Center was all the proof I needed...lol

Oh Shit...

That Rapper * snickers lightly * is the kid from Pitch Perfect...Lmfao

In fairness, I laughed at Drake too when I recognized him from Degrassi High.

* don't judge me, I have daughters*

Worked out well for Drizzy.

The other guy is from the play Hamilton.

He should be number 1 on any team's list who needs another GM.

I think I'm gonna go over to IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes next week to see if Wiggy tries to sabotage Uncle Drew ratings.

Yeah, the only way I'm watching that is if it's the 2nd Movie you watch for free at the drive in.

Looks like a cross between the Nutty Professor, Big Mama's House, Love and Basketball and Madea goes to jail.

Might be funny. But, I'm too old.

Yeah I'm ok with tanking naturally like the Kings and Knicks (soon) will start doing by playing younger players which will lead to more losses. The Mavs way of tanking I hate. It almost sounds like if they're up 6 with 4 minutes to go, the coach will instruct them to lose. No way can Silver like Cuban comments

 

[bksballer89]

I can't with these young guys bitching about playing too much/their minutes.

First it was Porzingis, Buttler, and Giannis.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo addresses his knee issues: 'I play too much'

It's one thing for fans to talk about wanting their team to tank, it's much different for the owner to tell players they shouldn't try to win games.

Dumb ass. Looks like he's getting ready to suck a dick.








Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I would like to think that this is not true.

Seems like his " Family First " Father would have taught him better.

Crazy that the last time he posted anything about her was February 2017.

BTW did you see that Joy Taylor (moderator of Skip and Shannon) is dating Earl Watson?
