The NBA: Where Amazing Happens.
While amazing things do often happen in the NBA, it’s not exempt from horrible things happening, too.
Because this is a league full of incredible players, massive contracts, and split-second decision-making. Sometimes, owners, players, and GMs make the hilariously wrong call. It happens, like, every year, actually. Multiple times. And it’s always worth remembering.
Y’all remember…these?
Let’s start a y’all remember thread.
Y’all remember when the Grizzlies signed Chandler Parsons to a 4 year $94.5M deal?

At the time, Chandler was pretty defensible! Unfortunately, he’s played less than one full season for Memphis is well over two years.
Y’all remember when Portland drafted Greg Oden number 1 over Kevin Durant

Remember that?! Portland remembers! Luckily, Greg Oden’s got thick skin.
Y’all remember when Brandon Jennings dropped 50 on Steph Curry

Literally hard to believe this ever happened. Highly necessary we remember this.
Y’all remember Brian Scalabrine telling his the media he’ll tell his kids he started on the 08 Celtics championship team?
— Brandon McCorkle (@BrandonMccorkle) November 29, 2018
I…actually don’t remember that, but I believe Scal would do such a thing. Of course I do.
Yall remember when the Lakers signed Luol Deng to a 4 year $72 Million Contract and only played him in 1 game for the entire 17-18 season?

Does anyone remember, or did Rob Pelinka mind-wipe us all? Jesus Christ.
Y’all remember the lakers signing Timofey Mozgov for 4 years $64 mil?
