i guess it's lame, but the nets are as lame as it gets in the first place... i don't feel too bad for fans who specifically wanted to see irving and simmons or whatever

The reality is fans often buy tickets for the matchup. Maybe it's Colts-Chiefs or it's Pacers-Warriors to see the reigning champs and their firepower, which includes Curry — a generational talent who kids look up to. The Nets are so chaotic that you shouldn't count on anything with them, but that doesn't make what they (and others) do right.

Couldn't agree more. Not sure how to prevent it. A team honestly trying to win would have managed some the previous night. It wouldn't have been hard to sit Warren last night. If KD and Kyrie can't handle the NBA season maybe it's time to move on to fishing.

One way is to make the schedule lighter, fewer back-to-backs. Eliminate stretches like 7 games in 11 days over several timezones. That's brutal.

I have it. Players out for injury should have to be available for autographs for the entire game. Set up a table in the concourse and give them a box of sharpies. See which way they they prefer to entertain the fans for their millions.
