And the Lakers and Knicks aren’t dysfunctional? Deadspin loves to point out how awful those franchises are but still thinks every NBA superstar should be playing for them.

Because they interfered with the narrative that sportswriters had created about Davis joining the Lakers and creating a super-team.  

I still fail to see why the Pelicans are the bad guys in this whole AD drama.

Lakers! Obviously! Let the rich get richer, we always say!

Yeah, weird article. Instead of being upset that a team successfully tanked to get Zion, we’re now upset that it’s working as intended? That was exactly the point to the new changes, to discourage tanking! New Orleans has awful management, but so do the rest of the teams in the top 4.

At least Deadspin is consistent with their trash takes on this.

“Bloo bloo bloo I’m a big stupid baby and I’m crying cuz Zion isn’t going to where I want him to go, change all the rules or I’ll poop in my diaper”

Did everyone in New Orleans take a turn kicking Deadspin’s gerbils?

This is horseshit. Good for New Orleans. Fuck New York. Fuck Boston. Fuck LA.

By the end of this next season we’ll start seeing reports about how Zion has a home in LA and some business interests there and will definitely end up in a Lakers uniform by the end of his contract unless he forces a trade to the Lakers before then because his agent will of course be Rich Paul, who also represents…

Solid contender for worst fucking episode.

I’m not against EVs, but the lack of exhaust note makes them really boring to watch. Motorsports just seem far more fun and exciting with super high revving ICEs.

Is the front end as ugly in real life as it is in photos?

#Jokiclookslike he has sat at the same folding table outside the same bodega in the same velour jumpsuit while smoking cigarettes and talking about the benefits of stretching for the last 15 years.

“...if we don’t switch to a zero-emission economy fast we’re pretty much entirely fucked, if we’re not entirely fucked already...”

At some point shouldn’t we just realize that the Embiid stuff really isn’t kayfabe and he’s actually kind of a dickhead?

Absolutely. I’m just offering a reminder for when Duke’s “investigation” goes away because Avenatti is an idiot that there was something that was probably worth investigating. Avenatti's still a clown, though.

I have a VERY hardline stance on this. If my seat reclines, I’m reclining. Period. I’m not sitting upright for 14+ hours. Not happening. The person behind me sitting up right for whatever moral reason, that’s on them, kudos to that person. It’s not like I’m modifying the seat to do something it isn’t supposed to do.…

Am I the only one who’s a little bit sad at the death of the front-engined Corvette? While I have nothing against mid-engined cars, the Corvette always seemed to be one of the few big, fast, front-engined two-seaters left on the market.

He will alwyas be the greatest plyaer for the Heat.
