all i know, is the players arent the ones who were offering crazy contracts for their mediocre talent to the owners
No, the evil sports agents made the Hawks give Joe Johnson $800,000,000!!!!
I blame the NBA and NHL for letting the collection of miscreants known as the "Atlanta Spirit Group" in as owners. There are assholes, there are pinheads, there are idiots, and then there is the ASG. Billy Knight and Rick Sund have been even worse than the guys in the 90's.
Sund gave fucking Marvin WILLIAMS nearly 60 Million guaranteed. Marvin Worthless Williams..... That's even worse than Joe Johnson.

I don't understand why David Stern is allowing the owners of the marginal/peripheral teams to be the ones dominating what's happening here. Makes no sense.
Because like the NHL, he doesn't want to admit failure and do what the league really needs to do...... retract franchises that aren't able to draw.

Hows the glorified WWE doing again? Oh wait...
The team I hate the most has imploded in hilarious fashion and the team I support has a QB that can complete more than two passes in a game. And it's still the best sport in America. So pretty well I'd say.

Time to get excited about mediocre college basketball now.
who knows, it might get a lot better if the best option for underpaid stud collegiate athletes is go to Greece.
The NBA would be awesome if they retracted to about 20 teams. Guys like Marvin Williams should never get paid, that, and contract guarantees should only last 1 season.

You could say that about most professional sports leagues. Do we really need Tavaris Jackson as a starting quarterback in the NFL?
