Probably. And sports culture is the worst.

I gave 0 fucks about this article before this came out. It's still close to 0, but I'll likely read it now.

Tell me about it. I've never heard of her in my life but I guess I have to read it now too.

The video I saw said that Porter under 3PM prop was the most profitable prop on DK on the day in question which makes no sense. DK then reported it to NBA. He’s fucked (if true).

Yeah, maybe. But the betting has to be tied to him somehow for it to be his fault. There's just too much history of people involved in professional sports betting getting the inside scoop to just jump to the conclusion that Porter is willing to risk his career over a prop bet or two.

Him having legit health issues for those games and that info having leaked is more likely imo than him being involved in some sort of betting ring and him rigging.

Is a giant waste of rotation pieces. Would’ve helped that Siakam / OG / Barnes core instead the shit bench they had.

Add Banton into that if you like and it’s looking real bad.

Yeah, the biggest failure of that attempt to build around FredScal was that we just stopped making good rotation players appear out of thin air. It's starting to look though like the talent was probably here, we just miscast it, were patient with the wrong guys, etc. Thibs has turned Precious' career around over the last 20 games by doing some fairly obvious shit. We were trying to turn him into a Pascal 2.0, which is cool because if you squinted the skill set was there but he's too low IQ a player for it and that became pretty clear midway through last season. Thibs has put him in a super defined role as a rim running big and he's been pretty okay. Even when we used him as a centre we were letting him carry the ball up court, using him to spread the court, etc. Thibs has him rebounding, never dribbling under threat of benching, run the court looking for the pass and then setting up in the dunker spot, crashing the offensive glass. That's it, that's all. If he even thinks about deviating, Thibs sits his ass down for him to think about it.

Dalano just needed time and patience apparently. Picked the wrong guys to give long looks at (Yuta, Svi, Malachi, etc)
