And having these kids go G league is dumb as well.

Make em go to college or go overseas. No one watches the G league.

Just proves the nil point

Look at the Thompson bros

Way better than guys getting paid on college teams

I like the gleague

Better than the nba being a free rider on tax payer dime

That’s fine

Their job is to get people ready for the nba

Let it do it’s job

I'd rather we use the means we always have

College

It works! And the guys who actually played 2 and 3 years in the 90s had just as long careers (if not longer)

AAU certainly has these kids further along as HS products so if they are that good then by all means go pro.

If they aren't then don't use Duke as a means to propel you to a semester of school you didn't want to sit through.

2 years helps both ends of the deal

But alas.... not to be and probably never will be

Yes. I think it would’ve looked worse if she didn’t hit a band member lol

Was it because she was mad about a call?

The reason I ask is because there was a time in the NBA when players would be mad about a call and they'd slam the ball really hard on the ground causing it to bounce really high. Late, great Lakers announcer Chick Hearn would always say "If that ball comes down, he's getting t'd".

And of course the ball always came down and the player would get t'd. I'd understand if it was something like that.

I guess even if that wasn't the case...it could still be a tech since a player is supposed to either not touch the ball or give it to the ref.

That would be pretty weak, but not exactly Joey Crawford t'ing Timmy for laughing level either.

Better question is how the hell Minny lost to that Blazers team minus its seven best players

Their guy making 8m per year just threw an uncontested layup over the backboard…they need to investigate that team lol

Was the tech for throwing the ball out of bounds?
Yess, they called her for delay of game…

It was a break in play…lol

Also gave her a 4th foul.

So, she played the rest of the game handcuffed.

Let me state clearly….

Not why they lost.

Not why she played shit defense.

But, still bullshit.

Yeah, can't be doing that. I didn't see the game, so I don't have all the context.

But showing up the refs, which is what that is, is gonna get you t'd up.

Learned that lesson my first season coaching high school when I told a ref with a really bad combover to quit taking his bad hair day out on my team.

She really wasn’t showing them up.

Did a stupid ass behind the back on her way to the huddle and they gave her a delay of game, tech for her 4th.

Yeah, as I posted above...if it was anger over a call...okay.

But if it was just that she didn't hand the ball to the ref...that can be called a tech, but the ref usually gives a warning on the first one.

Yeah that had nothing to do with showing up the refs there. The foul wasnt even her that got LSU to the line there. I think she was just frustrated at that point with how the game was going
