Oh wow did not realize Nike was becoming the provider of NBA gear next year. Holding off all purchases until then. I love Addidas clothing and soccer gear- but their basketball workout shirts leave a lot to be desired

I've been eagerly awaiting the switch over to Nike.  I have a couple of the Adidas long sleeve Climacool shootaround shirts, and they're cool, but overall, Adidas' apparel is garbage.  People can say what they want about the methods these companies use to produce their clothing, but there is definitely a difference in quality.  Nike just makes comfortable, high quality stuff that the other sports apparel companies don't. 

I also just recently bought an Adidas throwback Sacramento Jason Williams swingman jersey, and I ordered it according to their sizing charts because they had different sizes listed than other brands.  I ordered a medium, which according to them is still too big on me bc it is a size 44 chest (I typically wear a 40-42 in jackets) - and it still fit too small...  It's a lot like how the NFL paraded around that butt ugly, uncomfortable, poorly constructed NFL Equipment line all of those years before going back to Nike.  

In summary, I'm excited to cop some new gear this year.

Awful take. One of the best teams in the conference when they aren't crippled.

As a former employee of the franchise I can promise you that MJ cares about one thing. Himself and his brand. Cho is his GM because he's a bitch that does anything and everything for MJ. He'll shine his shoes and provide him with whatever service he needs. I couldn't wait to leave that organization as fast as possible. What a circus

    • Exactly the type of thing he would have done here. The excuse people were stannin’ so hard claiming he would have looked just as bad. Just not true. 
    • Yes and there aren't 32 starting QBs in the league either. Too many teams and too many games. The NFL has regressed over the years and game quality is lacking. The other leagues are supposed to be farm leagues but it doesn't matter. You just won't have 32 no matter what they do. The move to super athletes playing QB at all levels has lead to this. It used to be those guys played other positions but now they are QBs who can't really QB.  It has a trickle down effect too. OL can't block because they never had to. The fact that in today's game your QB must be able to run at least a little to survive is evidence of this as well. IMO they have ruined the game same as with the NBA. It's been simplified to the point of being boring.  Just look at the top 10 this season. Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) Joe Burrow (Bengals) Josh Allen (Bills) Lamar Jackson (Ravens) Dak Prescott (Cowboys) Jalen Hurts (Eagles) Brock Purdy (49ers) Jordan Love (Packers) Justin Herbert (Chargers) Matthew Stafford (Rams) Once we get to number 5 the stats look like this: 167 262 1,845 63.7 7.0 10 8 65 18 84.5   47.5   10 TDs and 8 INTs??? At number 5??? There was a time not that long ago that he wouldn't even be a starter.   
    • I'm not convinced that the NFL is any better or worse at developing QBs now than they were 20 years ago.  I mean I'm sure there are some developmental issues at play, just not sure it is any different than it has been. The biggest difference IMO is that NFL teams are waaaaaaaay more willing to invest a 1st round pick into a QB now than they were 15-20 years ago.  A guy like Colin Kaepernick would probably be a top 5 pick in 2025, whereas he went in the 2nd in 2011.  Would a guy like Trey Lance go top 3 in 2010?  Hell no.  Look at Russell Wilson - he didn't go until the 3rd round.  The standard for being a 1st round QB has dropped. So it may seem like we're seeing more high-profile busts at the position, but we're also seeing teams reach for QBs way more than they have in the past.  Someone with Anthony Richardson's college resume doesn't go in the top 3 20 years ago.
