The NBA and Adam Silver are corrupt.

Tanking isn’t the biggest problem for the NBA.

Gambling in the NBA is.

Adam Silver cares more about his relationship with Fan Duel and other gambling companies than he cares about the interests of the teams in the league.

Why the NBA should embrace tanking -

The NBA has kate been misguided thinking that fans want to see their teams compete every night with a chance to win. It’s never been that way that way.

When I got into the nba, they thought they were in the basketball business. They aren’t. They are in the business of creating experiences for fans.

Few can remember the score from the last game they saw or went to. They can’t remember the dunks or shots. What they remember is who they were with. Their family, friends, a date. That’s what makes the experience special.

Fans know their team can’t win every game. They know only one team can win a ring. What fan that care about their team’s record want is hope. Hope they will get better and have a chance to compete for the playoffs and then maybe a ring.

The one way to get closer to that is via the draft. And trades. And cap room. You have a better chance of improving via all 3 , when you tank.

We didn’t tank often. Only a few times over 23 years, but when we did, our fans appreciated it. And it got us to where we could improve, trade up to get Luka and improve our team.

The nba should worry more about fan experience than tanking. It should worry more about pricing fans out of games than tanking.

You know who cares the least about tanking , a parent who cant afford to bring their 3 kids to a game and buy their kids a jersey of their fave player

Tanking isn’t the issue. Affordability and quality of game presentation are

NBA explains the Jazz were fined for the Magic game and the Heat game.

Have to say, fining a team for a game they won seems VERY questionable to me.

[Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS]

Are the Raptors going to the get retroactively fined for conduct detrimental to the league? Because they did exactly what the Jazz are doing last year.

[CallyJazz @Callystarr]

I hope @RyanQualtrics fights these fines. You cant change rules mid season when other teams have done this.

[Rob Perez @WorldWideWob]

"...the Jazz removed two of the team's top players...before the beginning of the 4Q and did not return them to the game"

1) Ok so if Will Hardy sits Markkanen the entire 3Q and plays him in the 4Q instead, is that acceptable?
2) They won that Heat game!
3) They won that Heat game because Brice Sensabaugh is nails and came through with several big shots. Is he not permitted to be the focal point of an offense without the presence of 'stars' on the floor concurrently?

I have more questions now than before they addressed/penalized this.

RFK Jr.’s new portal to Team Trump, “Policies for the People,” has BLOWN UP overnight! 🚨

Thousands of users have signed up, submitted ideas, and are actively “voting” for each other’s policies.

The top proposal is currently “Single Issue Bills,” followed closely by a term limits proposal.

Without even being elected yet, this administration is already giving the American people their voices back.

This is how you reduce disenfranchisement… and encourage civic participation again!

RFK Jr. has promised to read all submitted proposals submitted through the portal.

May the best ideas win!

@RyanQualtrics I’m getting married today and would take my newly wed wife to the game! She’s become a devout Jazz fan since we started dating over 2.5 years ago. She would be so happy and surprised to have a wedding gift to sit courtside!
