The Suns need to stop being good. They're killing my genius plan.

Brogdon is having a great year and I wish Gersson had pursued him instead of that other point guard. Indiana got a steal.

Yes they did. Milwaukee is going to watch Philadelphia go to the finals because of it.

Here's what should concern you. We all know how professional sports leagues desire to be relevant in the biggest TV markets. Well here's a true story for you. I may have mentioned before that my Son in law Pitched in the major leagues for 3 different organizations He spoke to one of his buddies whose major league career recently ended. This player had spent most of his career in LA with the Dodgers. He was a regular user of performance enhancing drugs. It wasn't until he had moved on from the Dodgers that he began to be tested for PED's. He was tested so regularly that he had no choice but to give up the drugs. Soon his elevated performance dropped and he wasn't able to maintain his place in the league. So basically he was protected as long as he was with LA, but as soon as he went to a smaller market the scrutiny was much greater. You can draw your own conclusions, but I found this very distasteful and it was further confirmation for me that the playing field is never equal in pro sports.

I don't think I'll ever understand why Milwaukee didn't match his offer sheet. They're clearly in win-now mode with Giannis being MVP. They should have kept the Giannis-Middleton-Brogdon core together.

Charlotte just keeps on winning. I have no idea how they are doing it with the players they have.

It happens when you have an owner who doesn't want to spend the money to be a consistent contender. Also the dumb thing the Bucks did they could of always matched the offer and then traded him in December if they didn't want to pay the salary.

It's the Frank Kaminsky factor. He just needed the right team.
