wait until they lose that game, then get back to us.
-
if mobley is healthy, the cavs are one of the top 3 teams in the east come playoff team. lots of time left in the season.
-
i'm not a massive fan of these stats, but i do think it shows how massively unlucky the wings have been this year.
-
you're fired.
-
that's an agent talking to a reporter saying "youre going to have to pay my client even more money to take a job in this situation." nothing more than posturing.
-
i remember when there was an argument that the pistons should have taken mobley over cade. i dont think anyone is making that argument any more.
-
if it was straight up, then yes you make that trade every day if the week. but edvinsson, kasper/danielson, mbn and a #1 pick is too much. then your whole team is one line and one pair of defenders. everything else is trash and no way to grow out of it. hughes is good, but he's not bobby orr.
-
maeda, morton, and now jansen. fetter can fix a lot of things, but he cant turn back time.
-
i could see both sides, but feel like detroit is better off not giving up edvinsson to meet that price for a guy who may be gone in 2 years. assuming edvinsson re-signs here.
-
freeman is not going to michigan. freeman to the nfl is a real possibility.
-
you would have traded edvinsson in a package to get hughes?
-
the east is so bad that the pistons have as good a chance as anyone else. they have a couple flaws that will be exploitable in the playoffs. robinson is their only real shooter and teams will hunt him on defense. he tries very hard but he cant stay in front of good players. brunson and mitchell will get switched on to him and it will be bad. we've already seen teams adjust to duren's roll game. ausar's lack of shooting will allow more teams to blitz cade as soon as he crosses halfcourt. they dont have a legit second ball handler. teams will want lavert with the ball because all he does is put his head down and run to the basket while everyone else watches. but if they stay healthy they are better than many teams in other areas. ivey off the bench gives them scoring depth that others dont have. a healthy stew gives them interior defense. what they really need is another ball handler and another shooter. del's crush trey murphy would be a great addition to the starting lineup but he will likely cost you ivey and probably robinson too. and then pick up a veteran point guard off the buyout market.

the idea that his "mental illness" necessitated someone being in the room with him when he was fired is ridiculous. you usually have an HR rep in the room - or, in today's world, on the zoom call - to make sure the proper message is put in place and nothing out of bounds is said. they are there to protect the organization, not the person who is being let go. then security walks them out to make sure there isnt any trouble. again, not for his mental health but to protect the organization and its employees from any actions. once he is out the door, he is responsible for his actions, not his former employer. happens all the time. the fact that it apparently didnt happen here is curious. could be another sign of disorganization by the athletic department or lack of a modern HR department overseeing the football program or athletic department.

from the athletic: "So we’ve got one of the best players in the world for a defenseman who might be a top-pair defenseman one day (but also might not be), an undersized second-line center, a player who likely won’t contribute and a below-average first round pick. Is that really that much of a haul for what Hughes brings to the table? That feels good as a rental price, but for two years it feels light for Hughes, one of the best trade assets to hit the market in the salary-cap era." ouch vancouver.
-
me neither. seider/edvinsson is one of the best pairings in the league. my only concern would be if they cant re-sign edvinsson.
-
would you have matched it if you were detroit?
-
atlanta has a lot of shooting and zero paint defense. so easy to get layups against them. any interest in trae young?
-
asp is not the equivalent of buium. edvinsson is. would any if you have traded a first, danielson, edvinsson, and mbn for hughes?
-
all the talk of vancouver wanting centers and there isnt one center in that whole group. rossi is too small, ohgren is a wing, and buium is defense. buium is the prize, i guess. rossi was benched in the playoffs and ohgren has 5 points in 42 nhl games. i guess its the equaivalent of kasper, mbn, and asp plus a first rounder.
-
that's a first round pick plus three first rounders. so 2026 1st, danielson, kasper, and asp.
-
ffs.
-
fundraising, hiring the football and men's basketball coaches are the main duties of any modern AD at a big school. warde has done 1 1/2 of those things well. gice him credit for dusty but demerits for how he handled juwan.
-
he's stepping into one of the most talented, young offenses in college football and an organization loaded with money. but the athletic department is a mess for sure.
-
lack of judgment. maybe its because ive seen this **** as a lawyer, maybe its because i'm old, maybe it's because i'm just an apologist, but people making stupid mistakes and thinking with their little head and not their big head is part of the human condition. it happens. again, its fireable and he should be fired. stalking is a crime and he should face the law for that. breaking your wedding vows is a moral question (we dont really know about his personal life or his marriage) but IM'ing beautiful people is not a sign of mental illness. bad judgment for sure.
-
i dont think dm'ing an onlyfans hooker...i mean model...means you have mental issues. lack of judgment, maybe.
