I think the' several reports' have stemmed from the original blurb about us in Boston Globe. I think the Globe story was b.s. as well... It's retarded.

Unless the NBA is gonna offer a price for the team as well as the fees and penalties for getting out of the arena lease, then it would sound more credible. But, even then, if you just read MJ's comments about making the franchise successful, I doubt he would accept the NBA's offer or plan.

The same thing happened in the NHL in terms of the owners coming out and saying that they were going to contract teams if they didn't get the salary roll back that they wanted. In this case, they're wanting the players to take an even bigger salary roll back up to 35%.

The NBAPA, or whatever acronym the players use, have a worst nightmare of losing franchises. Less franchises means less jobs and less jobs means higher competition for spots and even worse representation.

When you start negotiations, you come out with the strongest and most horrible outcome first and work your way back to respectability making concessions along the way. The same way that the NFL is already talking about a lockout like it's a foregone conclusion, that is where the negotiations start and the balance of power is known.

Nobody is going to get contracted. The league can't afford it and the players won't stomach it.

      his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen.

      Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.

      Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
