I'm sorry but in no way does NE stack up to SA...SA doesn't cheat anywhere near as much and they take better care of their players

SA does take better care of it's players but a lot of that is due to the CBA, the NFL and NBA have similar cap numbers these days but the NFL has to have 53 people to spread that money around to and the NBA only 15, so it's easier for the NBA to take care of players.

That said I would put SA over NE when it comes down to how they run things just because SA has never been investigated (rightfully or wrongly) like NE has. But NE and Kraft do have a top notch organization, what they have done the last 15 years is amazing.

The Spurs just might be the best team in the NBA so I wouldn't put too much into that especially since the Raptors are on a road trip

Yeah, the Raptors had a pretty crazy schedule over the holidays. They were in Utah just before Christmas, then flew back to Toronto for Christmas eve then back to the west coast Christmas Day. However, as Dwayne Casey said, "This is the NBA. A long road trip is no excuse."

Very thankful for the alt GB game for saving me from the lakes game...Ya we for whatever reason let up huge after wins...Dumb kids...We need more vets..I'm sure having played more games then any team in the league has done us no favors..But there is still a lot of promise
..Ingram is getting a ton of minutes (leading the team) and I see the spark in him for sure...We are competitive in most every game ( something we weren't last year) and we are one win short of last season...But ya slow going....But what do you care? you just wanna say fakes and dumpster fire as much as possible

Not so much. At first, it was nice. Any self respecting laker hater enjoyed the writhing and squirmy excuses for the multiple head coaches, executive in-fighting, horrible signings, and suspect draft picks. Then a stage of, OK....let's get going here.....now, it's just a black hole. It's in it's 5th year and things still look horrible, mainly on the executive and player levels. :lol: At least the coach is decent. :nod: Even the LA press has had it.

Hoiberg is going to be smelling like Evan Williams and regret the rest of the season in his pressers... LOL

Phoenix showing interest in Cousins. It's going to be a big ticket item wherever he goes. He would fit in in Boston really well. I'd give up Smart, Olynyk, Amir and a draft pick for him. 2.5 out of first in the East. IT.....wtf, for real. :rockon:
