Seemed to me that Dwight Howard kinda looked to get himself ejected. I think he bailed on his teammates, I don't think he even wanted to be out there. He wanted no part of it.
If you're the Lakers, I don't see how you can bring him back next season. Nor should they, IMO. |

I want Steph Curry to have my babies, mostly because I want my children to grow up and be amazing three point shooters.

The majority of SF in ridic chill. Oakland is in it's own league of absolute fucking slime but SF is great. Gays and robot street performers walk the streets in harmony.

I still prefer the 352, but SF isn't bad. |

Doesn't he have a twin? He's like a free agent. I wonder if he is offered a contract next year.

Chris Broussard just stepped in it by calling homosexuality, "walking in open rebellion to God." It will be interesting to see how ESPN handles this.

Smell our fucking ballsack, Seattle. We did it. This feels incredible. The Maloofs are awful human beings, not just awful businessmen. They are horrible people.
Kevin Johnson actually fucking did it. Pretty jazzed. |

And yes. Fuck Seattle. Everyone is trying to give them an out but I've had to endure constant shit talking for an entire year from Seattle basketball fans. Anybody that even casually mentioned that this move "made sense" or simply said "Good for Seattle," fuck them. Anybody who didn't absolutely 100% support the Kings staying in Sacramento is a piece of fucking garbage. We did it. All of the naysaying fucks lost. Sacramento wins.

A lot of the problem was that the Maloofs didn't care that they had the worst team in the league. They're terrible businessmen and they will probably fail in their next project too.
Hopefully, with new owners who actually care about the team and a new arena, the Kings can move on from being the laughing stock of the NBA. |

Trolling aside, im pretty much with Juan on this. I think the Kings, and the fan base, deserve better than what management has given so far. This was once a place that every NBA team feared stepping into, with incredible talent and incredible fans.
I am all for them staying, and becoming the power they once were. Im so sick of three or four teams holding all the talent (yes, including the Lakers). |

The Jazz, on the other hand, will be losing their two best players via free agency this year. Maybe the Kings can land Millsap or Jefferson.

Don't care about Brousards's opinion on homosexuality. Speaking about it now only can come from a place of hate. He should be fired.

If I recall this isn't the first time he's expressed his opinions on it. I also don't really agree that he should be fired if ASKED to come on and state his opinion. Now if he went about doing it on his own....well then you're just asking for trouble.

He was asked what the affect it would have on the league. Not to spew his bullshit.

He probably shouldn't have answered the question then. Poor judgment on his part.

He's also stated in the past that he felt the NBA was "ready" for an openly gay player. I haven't seen the segment so I can't really comment on anything other than what I've read. In reading though, it kind of come across though like he was giving his opinion on how players who may share the same views he does, would view Collins in light of the announcement.
Gonna have to watch this when I get off work. |

Ehh, he has an opinion. I mean, who am I to tell someone they can't share their opinion of something if asked? I don't have to agree with it, but they knew his background and beliefs at ESPN. You could argue it was poor judgement on the part of ESPN to put their super-Christian NBA analyst on a panel about homosexual players.
