  3. Bally Sports App Issues

    in Homecourt

    Posted · Edited by Hawkmoor

    I can't wait till ESPN folds and are forced to offer a stripped back product through a app.  The problem is they can't get the NFL or the NBA to take a ownership stake in the venture and ESPN the company. Translated, ESPN is in trouble and Disney wants to dump them.  Why is this huge?  ESPN is the main channel group that is keeping the traditional cable package in place.  If they fold, the cable empire is most likely over.   The problem is ESPN wants either the NBA or NFL to take part ownership and foot the bill.  The leagues have pushed back because they don't want to do that. NBC is lurking and wants the NFL and NBA back full time.  If ESPN folds as we know it there will be a dominoe effect that should affect cable and the regional sports networks. NBC, CBS, etc. should be direct to streaming because the original intent was not for them to be on cable in the first place.  They were suppose to be over the air antenna only.

    This looks no better than a Nate coached team

    Wow

    Since we know Quinn is a good coach becuz of his coaching before the Hawks. We can only blame the players. They are either not listening to him or incapable of playing in his system. Some players (even ones a lot of you guys love) have to go

    The only thing Quinn has done different that McMillan is give Jalen Johnson a lot of playing time.  Other than that, its the same offense, same rotation, same inconsistent defense. Nothing has changed other than Johnson.  You can make a case that the team looks WORST under Quinn than McMillan.

    U guarantee u that there are posters on here that would rather have Trae than Wemby LOL

    You made a typo.  I agree there are folks here who would rather take Trae also.  Look, I want the Hawks to win a championship.  I've been down this road since the 1970s. Its CONSTANT rebuilding with this team.  Trae is NOT a championship caliber player to build around.  It is what it is.  He needs waaay too much help AND his style of play isn't conducive to winning TEAM basketball.  Now Wemby, thats a player you build around.  Its like they took a computer and combined Jordan, Durant, Kareem, Mutumbo, Duncan, Isiah Thompson,  Steve Nash, and made that player 7 foot tall.  I've never seen anything like it and I've been watching basketball since the late 1970s.

    You mean two first and a swap?  Besides if Kings picks comes through this year, we can traded it for another pick in the future, so its no big deal

    You REALLY went into the minutia of the deal. I don't care if the deal was 1 first rounder, Wemby and a layaway plan.  The Spurs won that deal and I trust THEM to win a chip before the Atlanta Hawks. I've been following this show in Atlanta since the late 1970s.  Teams like Golden State, San Antonio, Boston, Los Angeles, Miami, etc.  win chips, tear it down,  rebuild and win another while the Hawks can't even GET to the NBA finals and you gonna go into the minutia of what the Spurs did? lmao
