House of Strauss HoS: Freddie deBoer on His "Modern NBA" Essay
Freddie’s back, after writing a glorious rant titled Fuck the Modern NBA. For once I get to be the guy defending the league (and some of my friends). We also discuss the current potential Biden succession chaos.
Topics include but aren’t limited to…
* Why fuck the modern NBA?
* Why has criticism of the NBA sharpened after the announcement of its big TV deal? Does the money mean the league is on the right track?
* I defend what the champion Boston Celtics represent
* Freddie and I disagree on whether the “fans as GMs” phenomenon is bad
* ESPN’s coverage of LeBron/Bronny is weird
* Dismissing Michael Jordan = Being angry at your dad
* Freddie hates Nick Wright and I do not
* Freddie on The Kamala Conundrum
* Why are we here, right now, we these two presidential candidates?
