Hinkie resigned after they hired Colangelo. He was sorta pushed out in the sense his job shrunk, but I also think the ownership group was legit surprised he didn't stick around and I think they wanted him to.

you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.

5 years from now Hinkie will be employed and Divac will be selling Uzbekistanian cigarettes and Adidums out of a white panel van under an overpass.

That seems like a totally reasonable argument?

Not that I expected him to but Heyward sneaking onto the third would have been nice in terms of giving Utah a better chance at keeping him :(

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Man if I'm Indiana and I think that my team can't keep Paul George, then I know that Atlanta can't and I make that trade without another thought.

Also, I don't think D'Andre robbed anyone. Without being hacked as much there was very little negative about him being on the floor and he just does so much for the Clippers that doesn't really even always tick the box score (although the on/off numbers are very favorable to him), on both sides of the floor, which is kind of unique at this point in the league.

Supposedly responsible for helping come up with the Jokic-led offense in Denver. Matt Moore also says he has been ahead of the curve when it comes to offensive development in recent years.
