    @Magpie_in_aus I read Sohi's piece on the Ringer, was pretty disappointed to be honest. Is this better?

    @voodoo not sure I can't read....more just interesting as I had no context. A few high horse things from them but sober sounds like a right creep.

      He is highly unpopular in Phoenix too by accounts. Not a reason to cut him out of course

        Sarver gooone. The fans will be happy because I read that they hate him for mismanaging the team all these years

          Apparently the league has a rule that because he's the primary partner, he can drag the other minority owners into a full sale. Insane rule , the other owners must be pissed

              JJ reddick just did a long form interview with Ben Simmons. Be interesting lesson (hopefully) tomorrow. Or he could just disappear for the majority of the interview

                @voodoo had a relationship with a staff member of the organisation. According to reports it was a consensual relationship, but the policy is that they can’t have relationships.

                Why suspend him? Either fire him or just get on with it.

                      @mariner4life I think most of the NBA fan world is just realising that Udoka’s partner is/was actress Nia Long and everyone is like, what the hell bro?

                        Ok basketball nerds, you will be better judges than me, highlight package looks like a cheat code (but I am no expert)

                        ..supposedly the next big thing with teams already rumoured to be tanking this season to pick him up...

                        whats your thoughts? is Victor Wembanyana the real deal?

                          @bayimports dunno yet

                          certainly looks like it. But then watching Zion Williamson in college it looked like he would dominate too, and he can't stay on the court. Will that lanky streak of piss stay healthy? Can he handle being bodied by other freak NBA athletes?

                          That length and those ball skills does look like another Kevin Durant. And KD is really fucking good.

                            Like that guy OKC drafted this year. Looks like he'd blow away in a decent wind and already succumbed to a season ending injury in preseason

                                @bayimports I think a season in pro ball in France will be good for him (and probably better than playing college, given his prospects for next years draft).

                                I watched that game and I don’t think he is like KD. When KD was playing for Uni of Texas, he had that edge in his game and mentality. Bought that to his first season with Seattle and the rest is history. The kid has talent but so many dudes do. It will be his mentality and so let’s see what happens in the French league.

                                      I'm pretty high on the kid having not seen much footage. He looks like he moves really well. Of that shot is genuine he could be KD-like, but he also looks like he runs like Giannis - if he fills out he could be anything.

                                      Playing against grown men will be a step up for sure, but wow, what physical gifts

                                        He is the real deal IMO. He's got such good perimeter skills (at 7'4"!) he doesn't need to so much of the physical and risky stuff inside.

                                        Zion I reckon will have a monster season this year now he's cut all the weight.

                                          Should have been an easy decision for Wiggins. After his Minny experience, I'm sure he must love being a contributor as their third option on a perennial championship contender who play a fun style
