Watching the Bucks.  It doesn't seem to me that Nwora adds much on either end of the floor.

He’s horrendous. The good thing is he’ll never play come Playoff time.

I was just confused to see him play 7 straight minutes. 

Could they get anything for Allen and Nwora?

You seem to forget 3 of their top 5 options at the 2/3 are out with injury.

I realize that....but still.  That rook looked okay.

Another boneheaded play by Nwora.  Lopez wide open at the top and he goes 1 on 3?  Smh.

Anyhoo, putting the NBA back into the NBA Thread ...

The Warriors are flat-out lousy. On this road trip, they've lost to the Hornets and Magic, among others. Steve Kerr is at wit's end. Obviously, they miss Juan!

I mentioned that they Draymond punch of Poole would have a negative impact on. the Dubs.  My take is that defensively it has hurt him abd the team quite a bit because he can't play with the same edge....a.k.a. fouling and getting away with it.

A few days after Adidas dumped Kanye, Nike dumped Kyrie.

https://apnews.com/article/brooklyn-nets-nba-sports-kyrie-irving-racial-injustice-972e41eed3debbd9a548433c78227f05?user_email=6647dfa7189f748384d7389910f7b584c6fcfc35ae990102964c7e826d4175c7&utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Nov06_MorningWire&utm_term=Morning%20Wire%20Subscribers

Nike has suspended its relationship with Kyrie Irving and canceled its plans to release his next signature shoe, the latest chapter in the ongoing fallout since the Brooklyn Nets guard tweeted a link to a film containing antisemitic material.

The shoe giant announced Friday night that it will halt its relationship with Irving, who has been suspended by the Nets for what the team called a repeated failure to “unequivocally say he has no antisemitic beliefs.”

The Nets made that move Thursday, banning Irving without pay for at least five games, and a day later, Nike made its decision. Those actions followed widespread criticism — from, among many others, the Anti-Defamation League and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.

“At Nike, we believe there is no place for hate speech and we condemn any form of antisemitism,” the Beaverton, Oregon-based company said. “To that end, we’ve made the decision to suspend our relationship with Kyrie Irving effective immediately and will no longer launch the Kyrie 8.”

4ever & rocket:

I sincerely am heartened to hear that, from this point forward, Scoop's two doctors of dental surgery will reject and condemn any celebrity, athlete, politician or  businessperson who has said and/or done anti-Semitic things, who has pushed anti-Semitic tropes, who has uttered anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, and/or who has welcomed support from anti-Semitic groups and people.

That's a long list, and based on those you've supported in the past, it would represent quite a change of heart for you.

Either that ... or you'll just use this newfound public outrage of yours to rip the few famous Black and/or Muslim people who have said anti-Semitic things. They deserve ripping, but they are far from the only ones on the list.

Nads,
I've never wavered from this my entire life. But, until Jews, themselves, rise up and push back, nothing will change, nothing. That also means not supporting known anti-Semitic politicians, like the squad and Barnes, hey?

Well, Doc, your voting record suggests that you've wavered some ... but I'd rather avoid a Scoopspension so I'll end it here.

How 'bout that NBA, eh? It's been nice to see the level of condemnation of Kyrie's remarks. A lot of great leaders associated with the league.

Actually, I disagree with your assessment of Trump as an anti-Semite. His history is quite the opposite. You should study it, hey?

Is Kyrie's time in the NBA over?

Sources: Nets have delivered Kyrie Irving six items he must complete to return to team:
- Apologize/condemn movie
- $500K donation to anti-hate causes
- Sensitivity training
- Antisemitic training
- Meet with ADL, Jewish leaders
- Meet with Joe Tsai to demonstrate understanding
