Ah, so this was your “Troll the left coast” moment rather than a legitimate question about whether this was the best matchup of the day.

Oh, I didn’t realize your question was “What conference has the most recent national championships that haven’t been vacated” rather than “Is this really the best game of the day?” Silly me.

Yes, it is the best game of the day. #16 vs. #9. Two contenders for the championship of one of the best conferences in college football, and this game will likely have a say in determining who plays for that championship. Do you like good football that is meaningful? You should probably take the hint from where…

I’m a Kings fan and I’ve never been so excited for a basketball season

/Dodgers sign him to a $100 million contract over two years.

What about Gawker Media?

I like how the announcers for Summer League games also wear casual clothes, as if once the seasons starts then they really have to be in their tip top form and dress better, b/c their attire is so essential to their craft. the offseason is all about pacing their wardrobe out and not over extending oneself

So are you saying that Bargnani is getting minutes over Cousins, Gay, Koufos, Cauley-Stein, or Casspi? He's demonstrably worse than all of them. He was going to be collecting DNP-CDs at the back end of the bench in Sacramento. The Nets have much less competition in the frontcourt.

Psst...Rohan. Narratives are cheap and easy, you just get to keep on repeating the same thing. I get the appeal. But somewhere between the dumpster and the match the Kings managed to replace Derrick Williams (0playoff games), Nik Stauskas (0), Ray McCallum (0), Jason Thompson (0) and Carl Landry (37, and washed up)…

Deadspin has a huge hard on for super low hanging fruit it seems. Sacramento isn’t that bad a town, leave them alone. Jesus.

Or he wants to get real playing time in New York than be a fourth-string backup in Sacramento, and he’s made enough in his career to make the financial difference in the two offers insignificant.

Things I considered:

All things considered, I’m totally okay with this.

I just want to know how Koufos is an overpay. You can call it stupid because he is aimless depth with WCS and Boogie in the fold, but Koufos at $8.75 per is a good deal for a rotation center. I have no idea why a team that needed a real center, such as OKC or Boston, did not jump on him.

This is the LAZIEST writing and most overused cliche in the media right now. Wes Matthews ended up taking more money from Dallas than Sac offered, not to mention the Kings have signed Belinelli, Rondo, Casspi, Butler. Bargnani chose less money to get some playing time on Nets over being the 11th or 12th rotational…

Or he’d have 4 bigs better than him in Sacramento and in NJ there’s Brook Lopez and a poo-poo platter of big men. On a prove it deal, generally going with the higher playing time makes more sense when you’ve made 72 million in career earnings (wow).
