The Chicago Bulls have applied to the NBA for a Disabled Player Exception worth $10.2 million due to injury of Lonzo Ball, who is expected to miss the entire 2023-24 season https://twitter.com/shamscharania/status/1675604307234652160

so we can get another player in free agency worth 10 million it seems but only for 1 year contract?

that reminds me the Bulls is really curse in the point guard position remember Jay Williams? remember Derrick Rose? and now Lonzo Ball damn
Hey!!!

I reminded you about your cursed point guards back then!!!

Thanks for bringing that up again!!!

The NBA’s Board of Governors will vote on July 11 to approve two changes that would begin in the 2023-24 season:

- In-game penalty for flops resulting in technical foul free throw (trial basis)

- A second coach’s challenge awarded if first challenge is successful

I dont mind the 2nd one!!!

I wonder how will the 1st one turn out!!!


Proposed In-Game Flopping Penalty:

-If a flopping penalty is assessed by game officials, the opposing team will be awarded one free throw and possession of the ball.

-A player who commits a flop will be assessed a non-unsportsmanlike technical foul, which does not count as a personal foul or lead to ejection.

-Officials will not be required to stop live play to call a flopping violation; they can wait until the next neutral opportunity to stop play.

I agree with the non technical call & the late stoppage of play!!!

But,

I wonder how many freethrows are given if this will be implemented!!!

I think it's far too early to make a definitive claim as to whether Wembanyama is a bust or no. Unless he sustains an injury that rivals Lonzo Ball, I will not say anything until at least a full regular season of NBA has occurred, and I encourage you all to do the same. Also, I don't think that a stat sheet from the Summer League should be used to project a player's career success. I understand that his numbers may look unimpressive--you forgot to include all the blocked shots he accumulated, by the way--and that we have nothing else to discuss, but it's his first game in the NBA, for crying out loud.

Any other players that have had great (or terrible) performances?

Bcoz if there are no real benefits for teams in this tournament after winning it then load management is the way to go when you win those games!!!

Theyre putting the players at risk when there are no real rewards/benefits on it!!!

82 is already short according to Adam apparently!!!

I guess the Spurs think preserving the star's health is more important than letting him develop in the Summer League.

Well, he should be fine without it. Better safe than sorry, especially since two of the top five draft picks this year are injured.

Sometimes, i think this specific rule of possession of the ball is kinda questionable considering there is also a rule that they will not call a flopping violation until the ball is out of bounds or if there is stoppage of play!!!

For example,

Player A touches the ball last that leads to an out of bounds but somebody from the opponent's team flopped a possession or more earlier so in this case,

Whose possession is it??

Sounds unfair if Player A gets the ball if you ask me!!!

& dont tell me youll do the same if you call a timeout in the clutch when you have the ball & you flopped a few possessions earlier...

I understand in some cases that one freethrow is a weak punishment but possession of the ball sounds very harsh in some situations!!!

One of them needs to go to the bench!!!

& both latter players are washed but having a PG with a great offball offensive weapon sounds better than one whos inconsistent & cant even do anything if his shots are not falling!!!

Atleast CP3 can facilitate even if he sucks!!!

& in defense???

Doesnt matter!!!

All 3 are liabilities anyway!!!
