Just got home from the game but the Warrior fans were stoked that they won, as I’m muttering under my breath yea ok whatever… but you had to have your starters play majority of the time (we had no Fox,Sabonis,Huerter or Monk) verses we already clinched our third seed AND clinched the play off division so I’m okay. This wasn’t a “we need this game”… you warriors did although would of been cool to get game 49 but I’m not mad. Things are really moving , maybe even thinking the Clippers might come real close too???
 
And, take comfort, you could be a Mavs fan right now.

"The NBA and Silver fined Cuban $600,000 for publicly admitting a reality that has become common in pro sports: Flushing a season in order to secure a high draft pick. MLB teams have been doing it for forever."

$600,000 is a bunch of money for most anyone - but for Cuban, like a $60 fine to the average person.

instead of fining in terms of dollars which Cuban has plenty of, revoking the draft pick would of been the more appropriate choice here.
 
Bruh.

I'm going to be nice cause you seem new to basketball.

You answered your own question: the game means nothing. Our guys have played 75+ games of professional basketball this year and many are nursing small injuries and are just tired. They need rest my dude! Also - don't want to risk injury - again - for a game that means nothing.

There are a million reasons to do what Coach did last night. Again, I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt because this seems like this is literally your first day watching basketball.
I believe he was referring to Queta. He was the runner up for MVP in the g league.
 
Ok I have been here for a little while and a lurker for years.
I just gotta ask? What’s a playoff game or series? I kinda think I read something about it but then again that may of been WW1 I was reading.

I was talking about Queta, i was talking about the fact that He as a Gleague MVP runner up doesnt play, meanwhile players around the league who are Two-Way players and play in the G-league are getting minutes in these last games of the regular season.

Ps: By the way, read the messages properly before responding to them like this, It makes you sound like an ass.
 
That was nice?

and I think he was taking about why not rest more guys and play G leaguers.

how about?

we have a reasonable chance of playing the Warriors at some point in this play-off. A significant part of our success is going to depend on the Davion Mitchell’s, Keegan Murray’s, Kessler Edwards, and Alex Len’s being able to play defense against the Warrior players. The time defending the Warriors starters and getting that time on tape to teach from for our best defenders was Golden.

You can bet that tape will be a significant part of the series prep when we play these guys.
Your right. I deleted. Please forgive me. @sactowndog and @nunob8 . Bit on edge lately. Not an excuse, but please forgive.
