Zion "admitting" he hasn't always been a great dieter is like Mugsey Bogues admitting he's short.
Next from NBA Central: "Larry Bird confesses his whiteness."

Sorry to hear this. I hope he works things out.
Finally a LaFlop James rule!
https://www.nba.com/news/nba-approves-in-game-flopping-penalty-for-2023-24-season
NEW YORK — The NBA Board of Governors today approved an in-game flopping penalty and expanded use of the Coach’s Challenge. Both rule changes will be implemented beginning with the 2023-24 NBA season.
In-Game Flopping Penalty
Under the new rule, when a game official calls a flop – or a physical act that reasonably appears to be intended to cause the officials to call a foul on another player – the offending player will be charged with a non-unsportsmanlike technical foul and the opposing team will be awarded one free throw attempt, which could be attempted by any player who is in the game when the technical foul is assessed. A player will not be ejected from a game based on flopping violations.
Referees will not be required to stop live play to call a flopping violation. If necessary (for example, to avoid stopping live play while the offensive team has an immediate scoring opportunity), the officials will wait until the next neutral opportunity to stop live play to administer the flopping penalty. After the penalty free throw, the league’s resumption of play principles will apply, meaning that the team with actual or imminent possession when play was stopped will be awarded possession when play resumes.
It is possible that the officials could call both a foul and a flopping violation on the same play.
A flopping violation will not be directly reviewable by a Coach’s Challenge. However, the referees could call a flop via replay review of a called foul triggered by a Coach’s Challenge or referee-initiated replay review of certain types of called fouls (such as a potential flagrant foul, block-charge call, end-of-period foul or clear-path foul).
The league office’s ability to assess flops after a game will remain in place. New for the 2023-24 season, the postgame monetary penalty system for flops has been modified to replicate that of technical fouls, with fines starting at $2,000 and increasing incrementally for repeat offenders.
A flopping violation called by the officials in real time will not result in a fine or count toward the postgame financial penalty system. When a flop is called by the referees, the lone penalty will be the in-game competitive penalty of the opposing team being awarded one free throw attempt.
The new in-game flopping penalty will be in effect on a one-year trial basis.

NBA approves two rule changes for '23-24 season
The NBA's board of governors approved two rule changes that will go into effect next season: a second coach's challenge if the first is successful and an in-game flopping penalty.
@7:50
I actually like and support this brother but something he said was very very interesting...
He said he CAN'T watch a whole NBA game.
It caught me off guard because this man career is based on sports and sports media
And he openly admits he doesn't watch entire games...
Now I have heard other sports pros say this because of the schedules they have.
He said he primarily just watches nba highlights.
What do you think of his comment?
Thoughts?

Porzingis may have lost in his return to New York with the Mavericks, but he won by getting away from the Knicks.
Is that the one where she filed a report a year later and was still texting him nudes saying how much fun she had with him?
