2023-24 Running NBA thread

Green’s indefinite suspension ended up being 12 games. Curious if he’s made actual progress or is paying lip service. We’ll know first time a ref makes an iffy call or a dude starts talking smack.

 

It won't mean a thing. He'll file a grievance with the NBAPA to get the lost salary back.

Why would he be out of shape since his suspension involved no physical injury?
If I'm the Warriors, I'm playing him 45 minutes a game for two weeks. You just had a month off, you should be plenty relaxed.

 

I don't think the G League is like baseball, where they could send him down to Santa Cruz forna couple of rehab games.

 

Lakers are 3-10 lately. Makes me think they are spending their $500K in-season tournament prize money $10k a night in the Champagne Room.

 

So think you can just run on a treadmill and be ready to face the best competition in the world? Why do you think they have a preseason? You can’t just go from not playing to being in game shape. Being “plenty relaxed” is the problem, genius.

 

Presumably he was in pretty good playing shape when he was suspended on Dec. 12, 28 days ago. Unless he's spent those entire four weeks lying on the couch, eating Haagen-Dasz and drinking beer, he should still be in pretty close to game shape and should not need an extensive period of reconditioning, and in fact should be ready to step right in and play 40 minutes. But this is Draymond Green we're talking about here.

 

I don't think its for the reason you think it is.

 

In the context of what I was responding to?

 

That's gonna smart.



Later was carried off the floor by his teammates.

 

ja we hardly knew ye

 

Man, what a pisser this is.

Dude is so much fun to watch.
