Go for a jog down Hopkins street, it'll be like GTA New Iberia.

Yep, dude will expect to be a starter in the NFL and hasn't proven he can be consistent.

Imagine if he just stuck with a team and developed?

I think you are correct in some ways, but what a lot don't understand is that 40 times and long speed are different. Hilton may not have the fastest 40 time, but if he hits his stride, he is elite. Watch him burn DB's, it is always late in the route when the DB cannot maintain speed.

Some guys just don't test as well in the 40, but can burn folks on the field.

I’d argue they do more with less than just about any team

Sure, but the NCAA needs to stop seeding them so high as we watch them choke year after year. I'd love to see them win, but am sick of them being highly seeded and lose.

Gonzaga screws themselves year after year, no need to blame seeding. Can they just go away now?

That dude went out like a bitch! "Losers limp" at its finest!

Perhaps. But I'm inclined to think the offense was going to suck anyway because Sloan was still the play caller/designer

This is the main reason, the Sloan decision is what did BK in.

I absolutely believe the idea that Mavs traded Luka to flagship media market in a handshake agreement so that they’d get to draft Cooper Flagg. The odds were 1.8% they get top pick. They did a few months after Luka trade.

This is the way. Do you also believe that NO was gifted Davis years back? The NBA owned that franchise at the time and it was convenient that they got the #1 overall pick as a selling point.

This league cannot help itself.

Until the actual NBA gets held accountable for fixing the fricking draft lottery, this crap will still happen (see this year, Mavs magically won after the worst trade in recent history).

Here's what I think should happen:
1. As some have said, make the non-playoff teams actually compete for the top picks in the draft. Once they are eliminated from playoff contention, then they need to try and win.
2. As above, the teams who finish at the very bottom get penalized, but enact a Euro soccer type thing and relegate the bottom 2 teams each year. Want expansion teams? Start them in the G-League and move them up. That would mean the G-League needs to stand alone and not be so tied to each team like they are.
3. SEVERLY penalize teams for "load management", players need to play since fans pay to watch said players. To facilitate this, stop playing so many games and set a realistic schedule that is not so hard on players.
4. Replace the Alien Adam Silver, he has done nothing but destroy the league.

The NBA is becoming harder and harder to watch with players thinking they run everything. Stop with the super team shite and keep players where they are drafted and not constantly going to big market teams.

Seems like a common theme for ALL Davis "coached" OLmen.

Campbell needs to put in the work to correct, but if this isn't an indictment on the piss poor coaching from BK and staff, then nothing is.

It does really hurt to see. He will learn from this, hopefully.
