The 2023-2024 NBA Season

[DJ Fieri]

What if the Bulls say. You give us one future 1st, Bog and Harris and we got a deal?

I think LaVine is worth one 1st and players at this point bc of that big contract.

Your Tweet said they are not shopping Bog. That is why I followed up with another trade scenario.

Lavine?

He is 28. Smack dab in his prime.

I feel like you're missing the narrative around him this year.

The Bulls have one playoff appearance in 6 years with this dude.

50 million his last year of this

Still a lot more times than I thought.

No chance Blazers win this protest.

That Shaq error that you mention is irrefutable fact, not a judgement as to when a TO should have been granted.

I will be shocked if this is number 7. Blazers just protesting to call attention to what happened.

I think it was also done to support the players. They probably played their hardest they have all year in that game. Props to them for carrying it over in Houston and winning last night.

Lavine?

He is 28. Smack dab in his prime.

...and regressing, oft-injured, and overpaid

Has not proven to be a winning player yet.

Who else in their starting 5 has?

tHoop is more than the PF as @Black Adam will vouch.

Yeah I don’t believe it but it did say “actively”. I’m not sure why Detroit would even be interested in LaVine though

Jim's been in there before when the Lakers and Dodgers are interesting...

We ARE having a so-so year with the Lake Show, as you already know...

I went to High school so close to Dodger stadium , we had to cross the parking lot to go to baseball practice because our fields were across the street from the police academy.

If they have video of Chauncey calling a timeout prior to the double dribble, that's not a "judgement call".

Either the timeout was called prior to the double dribble or it wasn't.

Shit.

I joined the summer of 2014 with @Mecca and @Wamu from SI's Fan Nation. Did not know Jim was more OG'er than me......sinnce he joined SH in 2013.

Um......nah. I found you, bud.

Money to spend and they know they can't land big fish at this point. Would be the only reason.

But 3 years (after this) is a big commitment.

The upcoming free agent class is also pretty underwhelming.

Doesn’t matter either way, the calling of the timeout means nothing.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

I changed my mind

detroit will add a first round pick if they can also swap coaches.

It doesn’t matter when he asks for it.

It only matters when it is granted.

And you know this.

In this case, it wasn’t granted in time. Tough break for the Blazers.

I think a better way to say that is that it doesn’t matter when the request for timeout is made.

Only when the official acknowledges it.

It actually does matter. The issue wasn't when the timeout was granted, it wasn't.

The issue is that it wasn't seen in order to be granted.

So the question for the league is whether or not the timeout should/would have been granted or is the ref simply not seeing it enough to deny the protest. If it is, fine. That's the leagues ruling.
