2019 NBA offseason thread

I just finished it. It’s well done.

 

I don't know if the money makes people grotesque - or just makes them more of what they would have been anyway.

 

I am 12 minutes into the first episode and Ramona Shelborne is doing a good job. But I am having a real problem trying to get interested in all of these horrible Sterling people. Give me a reason to keep going on this.

 

knowing that at the end the bad guy gets his comeuppance when he is forced to sell his team for $2,000,000,000

 

I find the backstory about what the players and Rivers were going through interesting. Also remembering those times.

 

Do they portray Mrs. Sterling as a sympathetic character? Because she married and lived with that despicable person for 60 years.

 

"Mo-mo" (who, for a reason that escapes me, has become the house superstar on ESPN in LA) says she did many interviews with Shelly.

 

NBA Clears Luke Walton In Sexual Assault Investigation

 

It’s pretty easy to clear someone when victim isn’t part of investigation, no?

 

She refused multiple attempts to be interviewed.

 

The complaint was entirely based on her own assertion.

 

I think the headline is probably a bit too... I don't know, it implies Walton's innocence a bit too much for me. If she's a victim with a pending civil suit, I can understand if she doesn't want to cooperate with NBA investigators. If I'm her attorney, I imagine the advice is something like, "There's not much advantage to us participating in this, because it gives him a 'free' look at what we're going to use at trial." (I've got no clue if her claims are credible or not, but I could understand that for her, getting $X million in a civil verdict is more of a payback than getting him fired from the Kings right now.)
