This is the correct answer. A large portion of revenue, especially for small market teams, comes from fans watching in person (tickets, food, souvenirs, parking, etc.). If they can postpone the season until fans are in attendance then they are much better off doing so.

This 100%. Kareem at 6th was ridiculous. A lot of the modern, analytically driven, rankings have him 1st. I know that Hakeem made it look prettier, but Jabbar did it better for longer.

I just want to say, I appreciate and respect law enforcement officers. They have a tough job. I believe most of them are good people and nearly all of them do more good than harm. I hate that they get condemned by the biased court of public opinion prior to having their day in court.

Yes. If change doesn't happen right away you continue to push for it in ways that make bridges, not enemies. The most successful social movements over the past 200 years are based on legal and non-violent approaches (think gay or women's rights). When methods used are violent or infringe on...

I support peaceful demonstration. I agree with the anger of protesters. I do not support and cannot tolerate the violence and destruction. My In-Laws had their shop burned by rioters. They didn't deserve it. As far as I am concerned, every protester that saw rioting happen and didn't do...

I am not a fan of Spy's line-up and feel like he forgot about SG when constructing the roster... but I still went with his team because he has the two most unstoppable offensive forces (Shaq & KD). For Team Mexico, Dirk is going to feast against Lewis, but Ibaka, Odom & KD could give some...

I really like the idea of having season tickets so I could let people go to games that normally wouldn't have the chance (kid working the gas station, garbage man, immigrant family at church, etc.). Growing up it would have meant the world to me to have someone share tickets to a Jazz game. I...

If one of my siblings won the lottery I wouldn't expect a dime. We all get along great and they aren't selfish at all, but it would be strange to get a hand out like that in our family and I would probably offend some of them pretty bad if I tried to give it to them. On the other hand, I am sure...

If I won the lottery and suddenly had $100M (after taxes, etc.) I would: 1. First thing I would do is hire a personal assistant. There are going to be a lot of things to arrange (lawyers, realtors, employee interviews, vacations, security adviser, financial manager, charitable contributions...

I voted tfivas... but I would much rather watch Rare's team. the line up of Doncic, Igoudala, Bird, Draymond, & Jokic would have such a high BBIQ and would be amazing to watch the passing. Taking Mitchell that early was a mistake... but I applaud the fanatical support!

The more I look at it, the easier a win I think it would be for team Troat. Troat has MUCH more talent. (8 HOF players VS 3). [I consider Pau and Paul HOF players] Troat has MUCH more elite talent (6 players ranked in recent ESPN top 74 VS 3). Troat has 2 MVP players (Dr. J & Robinson), plus 2...

I agree that Wallace is a much better option in dealing with power Centers, and he is clearly a better rebounder than Green. I do think Green was an elite defender in his prime, but in more of the KG mold (switchable, disruptive, help defender). I haven't seen all the teams yet, but it is hard...

This team is going to be tough as nails. You have some elite defense and ball movement. You did a good job of actually building a team, instead of just getting a lot of talent. Looking at the final team, would you change the Ben Wallace pick? At the time I was surprised you took Wallace over...

I read that wrist injuries often lead to inflation in the hands, which doesn't sound good, except that this inflation can lead to permanent increase in hand pad measurements! Basically, Bojan just got a Pokemon style upgrade/evolution (like when Giannis grew 4 inches after the draft)! Also, this...

Crap... Why wouldn't this have happened earlier? Strange to wait until now to do it unless it was just aggravated.

Instead of being bothered by ignorant people throwing this stuff around, think of it as a good cloaking device that hopefully keeps people from coming to Utah. To me, Utah is like a great fishing hole, or hunting spot... why would I want others to know? When others discover it the traffic will...

I was very disappointed in how high current players are ranked. I think it is much better to rank players off of what they have done so far, not projecting into the future. I can't believe how high Giannis was ranked. I don't think there is any way you can say he has earned a higher rank than...

I know there aren't any stars on the bench, but there are a lot of good role players. Gordon, Winslow and Barnes is a really strong group of wing players to bring off the bench. I also think don't think most NBA fans realize how good Curry is in Dallas where he has basically turned into an...

I think this is close, but I got Spy. Spy has a really great team 1-4 and IMO has the best bench in the tournament. I think there were better center options when Horford was drafted, but it isn't as if he is trash. This year Horford has struggled playing with Embiid, but has been good when...
