@ScottBilleck Considering that the organization hasn't successfully drafted and developed a proven high impact player since Kyle Connor in 2015, no number of high draft picks could help this GM. #2 Laine from 2016 would barely be top 15 in a redraft of that year.

@MarkJCarney Just making it easier for Canadian corporations to continue outsourcing and offshoring jobs to India. Fantastic for everyone except Canadians that want a career and job security.

@ggreenwald Considering that Carney was totally fine with Trump kidnapping Venezuela’s president and bombing Iran and supporting the Gaza genocide, I can’t decide if Carney’s Davos speech is best classified as next level gaslighting or pure hypocrisy or just a basic word salad.

@yvrairport @WestJet Choosing to fly Westjet is insane. When will you fix the daily 2.5 to 3 hour waiting time to check baggage at YWG?

@ScottBilleck My hope: get a new GM for the asset sell off and the draft. Expected reality: Jets sign Jagr and Kessel by end of month.

@ScottBilleck Chevy can't do much because outside of the core players on decent contracts, no one has performed remotely well enough to have trade value. Perfetti as a young guy and their only 'successful' draft pick in 8 years may be an exception.

@ScottBilleck Only one question I would want him to answer: “why haven’t you been fired yet?”

@ConnorHrabchak1 I’m surprised they haven’t signed Phil Kessel and Jaromir Jagr yet.

@BleacherReport Rigged. 43 free throws for the Lakers is ridiculous. I miss watchable basketball

@NBA @emirates 8 fouls in the last 25 seconds of the 4th qtr. A great game became unwatchable, terrible basketball. NBA Cup games should play to target score like the CEBL to eliminate the incentive to foul and make the Cup games unique.

Questions journalists should ask Adam Silver but won’t (a thread): 1. Are you worried that rigging games, drafts and trades will reduce fan interest and betting volumes? 2. How do you explain the grotesque free throw disparity in Laker games?

6. With entertainment value and fair competition reduced in the NBA, are you concerned about your job security?

4. Are there serious plans to reduce corruption and results rigging in the NBA and if so, what are they? 5. Foul chasing and tanking combined to make most regular season games in the second half of last season unwatchable - what is your plan to address those issues?
