NBA suspends Miles Bridges for 30 video games

The NBA on Friday introduced that Charlotte Hornets restricted free agent ahead Miles Bridges — who pleaded no contest to a felony count of injuring a child’s parent in exchange for three years probation and no jail time after allegedly assaulting his girlfriend in front of their two children — will serve a 30-game suspension for his actions, with the league giving him credit score for 20 video games served. That means, whichever franchise decides to compromise its morals for a springy wing who can get you 20 factors an evening, might be with out stated free-agent addition for all of 10 video games subsequent 12 months.

I’ve questions…

I’ve so many questions, essentially the most urgent of which is: How are you going to serve 20 video games of a suspension in the event you’re not on an NBA roster?

Aside from LeBron James, no one was prepared to go close to the radioactive four-year-hasn’t-been-able-to-start-his-fifth-year professional through the 2022 season due to pending litigation and the PR hit they’d take for overlooking his off-court shit.

Final summer season, the crew and Bridges allowed his qualifying supply to run out, making him a restricted free agent. I’d say, in the event you can’t get anybody to rent you, and have to sit down out a season due to your individual actions, the league shouldn’t bend over backward to retrofit the punishment. Am I loopy? Am I the one one who offers a shit about decorum? Picture? Integrity?

Right here’s one other pertinent query in my line of many: Haven’t sufficient wealthy individuals been given breaks for being shitty individuals this week? Congratulations, Miles, you and Dan Snyder can toast at whichever bar lets you present your faces.

And my last query is for Adam Silver. Umm, what the fuck are you doing? I imply I do know what you had been doing dropping this information at 5 p.m. on a Friday, however I assumed you had been a acutely aware commissioner.
