she's a sideline reporter. her job is to study and report on the teams that she is reporting on that night.Your job for 20 years is as an NBA sideline reporter and you say "This is really the first time I've had a chance to watch him play, and I got to admit, I've been sleeping on this guy" about someone who's already been a 2-time MVP under your watchthey booed her for admitting that she hadn't worked any Denver games and didn't know how good he was??

Yeah. That's pretty stupid and she deserves what she got.
and she appears for all of 30 seconds per game. hell, she even admitted that she hadn't watched him until now but that he's awesome.
and for this Denver fans booed her? classy!
eta: maybe i'd understand if she went on a radio show and said "i've never watched Jokic play but i just don't think hes any good and Denver doesn't stand a chance". then, i get it. sure. but her job is to study for the games she's working... not the ones she isn't... and she even said now that she has seen him he's an amazing player. she offered no critique.
sheesh, you guys maybe aren't the best representatives of Denver fan but given that those in the arena booed her for a compliment on the Rich Eisen show.. maybe you are??
If you don't live here I don't expect you to understand it. But this team has been one of the best in the NBA all season and has been widely disrespected by the national media. As far as her being a "sideline" reporter, Lisa Salters does a lot more than that with ESPN. But even if that were the case, it's her JOB to be knowledgeable about the teams/players. She CHOOSES to be ignorant. That's on her. And that's why the Denver fans took her comments as a slight. You asked why. I gave you the answer. You don't have to agree with them but now you know the why.

Take it personally. The fans booing her and you saying if you don't live here you don't understand. Sounds like whinning.
People are wrong on their predictions all the time, they don't owe anyone anything when they are proven wrong. You are the champs, no one can take it away. Enjoy it.

Truth is, as an NBA fan, it would be hard to Root against the Nuggets unless they were playing your team. 40 year drought, solid guys, a second round MVP, etc. As a Heat fan I am Happy for the Nuggets (sure, I'd rather then legend of Spo, Riley, Jimmy Buckets etc be etched in a championship banner, but if we can't have it I'm happy the Denver fans got it).
If the Heat lost to the celts last round, or the lakers or Warriors etc I'd be really annoyed. Losing to a classy team who were due is nothing to be sad about.

Just before the draft seems about the right time. Lots of proposed trades out there for picks 2-4.
If Boston or LAL won I doubt it'd be this mild. I think everyone is happy except Denver fans who hate Lisa Saulter.

You realize that Lisa Salters is the main one posing these insipid questions to the players right? Any fan base is going to jump on a national TV personality saying they've never watched a 2 time MVP.
It isn't as bad as an NBA finals commentator "forgetting" about Jokic in their MVP voting, but it's pretty damn close.

Awfully odd to draw the line of where it is reasonable to complain about ESPN at one person.
You complain about sideline reporters and then ridicule people for complaining about a particular one. What a joke.

As much as I hated him on the Celtics and as an announcer, I really enjoyed the Bill Walton 30/30. He was before my time so I never appreciated how dominant he was before the injuries. I also never realized how political he was at UCLA. He was running with some serious folks back then....and if you like The Grateful Dead, you'll appreciate the doc as "Grateful Red "was a huge fan.

Clippers should probably be looking to shed some salary with their gazillion dollar tax bill and all the new CBA restrictions.
Time for my first unrealistic Lakers trades. (Maybe I should wait for the new thread but alas)
Option 1 - immediate savings
Lakers give Mo Bamba - $10.3M all non-guaranteed before 6/29
Clippers give Robert Covington - $11.6M for 23/24 (expiring) and out of rotation - probably saved 4 or 5 times that in tax
Not sure if anything else needs to be included to grease the wheels.
Option 2 - longer term savings
Lakers give Malik Beasley - $16.5M team option for 23/24
Clippers give Norm Powell - due $18.0/$19.2/$20.5M over the next 3 years
Can’t imagine the Lakers taking on this much salary going forward, but they could if Clippers throw in this year’s #30 (which they’ve been rumored to do to shed salary)
