John Stockton won't watch NBA anymore.

John Stockton admits he is not watching the NBA anymore because it's way too soft: "Fans want you to go out there and do what they can't do, not go out there, shake hands and hug"
Hall of Famer John Stockton says load management, softer competition and the lack of true rivalries have drained his interest in watching today’s NBA.
OK, but my question is, do the Peacock/Prime games override local TV? Because I guess I can skip a few games if I gotta.

so no more national TV games on Thursdays unless you have Prime?

WTF!!!! 8pm start time on Tuesday Nov 11th Veterans day.
There's 5 games with 8 PM start time, all during the work week.

They all look like national TV games on NBC, so they may be part of doubleheaders

If we’re being completely fair, most of the old doubleheader 7:30 start time games wound up tipping off around 8PM anyways
$5.6M salary dump. Just cutting their tax bill, or looking to facilitate a future deal?
Oof, yeah that was rough. That sunk our 2024 playoff chances. And this has become even rougher with Dallas somehow managing to both eliminate us from the playoffs and win the lottery to pick Cooper Giles just a year later. Dating back to 2003 when C-Webb's reign as an MVP level player effectively ended in Dallas I really really do not like the Dallas Mavericks.
Actually, this is bothering me now... We were the 2 seed going into the 2003 Playoffs and Dallas was the 3 seed. Does anyone know why Dallas apparently got home court advantage in that series?

Kings were seeded #2 as they led the Pacific Division. However, they had won one less game (59-23) than the Mavs (60-22) and did not get homecourt advantage (based on record). Btw, I still hate a half time score of 83-61. Kings not deciding to come out over the three point line to defend Nick Van Exel still bugs me.
My new favorite "conspiracy theory" is that the Nuggets had assigned a handler to Porter Jr. to make sure that he never did exactly what he's doing right now, while he was in Denver.

Because they had the better regular season record.
EDIT: Which is pretty much what @coolhandluke said.
Why anyone (aside from maybe the players) gives a fudge about 2k ratings is beyond me but I am grateful I no longer have to worry about whether or not Swipa has been slighted.

Skinny Luka is not good Luka, Doncic problem is not weight , the weight helped him cause it was the one clear physical advantage he has over other NBA players in particular guards where he can overpower them after using his elite skills. His play style is what caused his injuries (it's also lead to a lot of success as well due to his insane skill level)by overexerting himself but dribble/hero balling way to much. He's still going to be elite but I think his problem is not weight he should be big/strong/burly.

Could he not sue he lost like a insane contract cause of this?
Yeah, I think DET was ready to give him like 30ish mil. Seems like a lawsuit will be incoming
