Holy shit

Shams tweeted that out first.

I would think Barnes, RJ, IQ, Dick, Poeltl, Olynyk, Agbaji are all back. Wouldn't be buying any real estate if I was any other player.

well your prediction was not all correct.

Lowe needs to get back to writing articles. I'm old school though. I'm not a big fan of listening to guys yap about basketball whether it is pod or video format. Would rather read their takes. Writer's don't get paid well though so likely won't happen.

All that will be left at that woke network will be black ex players and black female hosts.
Diversity, eh ?

I would suggest you tread carefully. But also, I would also say you're missing the point.
Ex-players and female hosts aren’t there because of some "woke agenda"; they’re there because they know the game and connect with the audience. Period. If you can’t handle seeing talented people who aren’t white men, that says more about those complaining than it does about ESPN.

He wasn't doing the numbers needed I guess

Sure.
ESPN trying to reach new/young audiences, fine.
Can't say a bunch of Mollys know more basketball than these seasoned NBA insiders/writers, come on now.

I mean, ya fair enough, but she's the host. She's the "colour" to the actual "Commentary". But having people who were actually in the league and played the game giving that insight, vs some guy that just talks about basketball and gives hot takes for a living, I think is better for the game.

Look at Inside the NBA. Just a bunch of black ex-players, and a charming host... terrible. C'mon man. The formula works.

Mixx is driving to work today.

[Joey]

[MixxAOR]
