I am begging @NBAonNBC to use the version of Roundball Rock they used on TV broadcasts from 1990-2002 rather than the original long winded track. Like this. @paulsen_smw @WorldWideWob

A fuller version of Roundball Rock in the intro for tonight's Peacock NBA preseason game.

Chris Webber, Gary Payton, and Ahmad Rashad on NBA TV was incredible TV.

Assuming Inside the NBA continues after Ernie and Chuck’s departure, I can see CWebb being used by TNT and ESPN. He and Jalen Rose are already doing college basketball studio show.

[Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill]

Chris Webber is really good in studio. Always has been

Charles Barkley:

"The Spurs are the team to beat in the NBA. Unless OKC makes a trade...I don't see any team that's in their league right now east or west. They are the best team. It is the Spurs thing to win now"

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

Shouldn’t have been gambling!!!!

@DaNetscape There are 30 jobs. DC is a great market. A loyal owner. It’s a job that HCs will want.

Dybantsa is also a major selling point.

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

I don’t think Brian Keefe is getting fired. But he’s not doing himself any favors on getting a contract extension.

#Wizards front office will get another coaching hire IMO. My guess is Billy Donovan or any of those 36 year old OKC assistants will be hired in May 2027.

[Brett Usher @UsherNBA]

Keefe officially on the hot seat?

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

It’ll be interesting to see how the front office reacts. The #Wizards will probably be 10-20 at the 30 game mark.

I have no idea what they’ll do. With Ernie Grunfeld, I knew exactly what type of reactive move would come. It would involve using future assets for short term gain.

[Oz @OBtoojiveforyou]

The front office tried to thread the needle but miscalculated. They needed to teach young players how to play and instead of giving them a coach who has won and knows how to win, they went with a HC who also is trying to learn how to win. All while adding two lead vets.

[Jay @ThisIsJay216]

They should make a feature where u can turn off all AI images on here

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

Uh oh. The aggregators are now highlighting what #Wizards Twitter has been yelling about with Trae Young’s inefficiency…

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

Trae Young’s struggles this season have been BRUTAL 😳

He’s shooting just 40% from the field, 29.6% from three, and has an alarming -60 plus/minus on the season 😬

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

Not including DC here is wild

[Chicago 2100 Urbanism @Chicago2100]

The US really only has 4 walkable cities
1) NYC
2) Chicago
3) Boston
4) San Fran

Makes sense when you realize they were all built before the advent of the car

[Shadi Hamid @shadihamid]

DC

[Tony Polanco @Romudeth]

Don’t know what’s more triggering:

-That there’s no disc
-That there’s no map
-That is takes them forever to take off the plastic

[Hoop Central @TheHoopCentral]

Charles Barkley was not having the Larry Bird and Austin Reaves comparisons:

“Yeah, they’re both white. That’s the only thing they have in common.” 🤣

[NBA on ESPN @ESPNNBA]

"Man, the Cavs suck."

Charles Barkley and @realchriswebber share their thoughts on the differences between last year’s and this year’s Cavs teams ⬇️

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

There’s a “Players Only” joke somewhere

[Blazer Banter @blazerbanter]

Everyone: did you hear about Jensen Huang?

Me: did you see Chris Webber is back on Inside the NBA tonight???

[Faisal Hassan @Faazzla]

@TheRealClassic He went back to TNT for college basketball. He filled in last year for Chuck.

I want to thank whoever is responsible for making the world's largest financial bet ever on an industry with a single point of failure.
