If Josh Giddey played in the NHL instead of the NBA, he'd be a right winger for the Predators.

It’s in the NBAs hands I believe. You can’t deny someone their livelihood on what is out there now.
Sure you can. You’re not denying him his livelihood if you say “Time out. Let’s see if he was poondogging minors before we let him back out on the court to represent our product.” And then if an investigation proves that he didn’t do what’s alleged then he’s back with full pay. It’s too risky to put this guy on the court.

There has to be mechanisms where he can still get paid while they investigate

The nfl has one (and dropped the ball not using it on shady Brady after he got caught deflating balls)

Like I said, it’s 100 percent in the NBAs hands. The Thunder have an impeccable reputation, I’m not the least bit concerned about blowback on the team.

Lmao at people saying him playing is “risky”. He going to jump someone in the stands? I did say yesterday I am of the belief that if he takes the court this will go away. We will see.
