    it's a damn shame you have the younger generation take a more mature/important approach compared to guys like rondo/troy daniels etc

    Or maybe it's because most people in the sports world are okay with the quality of accommodations for players being based on the revenue their league generates. If the WNBA made a similar amount of money as the NBA but the women players get treated a lot worst then that would be an issue.

    However the WNBA makes a lot less money than the NBA. And the accommodations for the men in the G-League are probably even worse than the WNBA and rightfully so.

    Main problem is likely the time to serve for all those players. Just like how delivered meals look deflated compared to serving it piping fresh on a plate.

    Still better than what we get from uber eats...

    It's like one of those meals where you eat in front of family, friends and those monitoring you to make it seem like you are in compliance until you can break out the mayo, Mac n cheese, hot sauce, and mashed potatoes and make some fluffy and better when you're alll alone.

    I’ve been served far worse in the military and I was grateful to have it. That food in the field would be a godsend.

    Come on, some in the league have eaten spread and probably enjoyed it. The food is fine. I’m sure ALL dietary needs are being met.

    I was there 3 years ago staying at the Hilton Group on a discount. The food is what it is and paying through the roof is practically at every tourist attraction.....

    The people freaking out about how the food looks have obviously never ordered room service. Room service is always way over priced, has a big service fee on top of it and is very disappointing. Hotel food in general is soulless food that is designed for the masses. It is always bland and tasteless.

    So I would always question PJ Tucker spending an absurd amount of money on cars, and constantly having new cars, including buying matching RR Cullinans with Harden, I recently found out that Tilman owns Rolls Royce and Bentley Post Oak and this makes a whole lot more sense, my guess is he uses this to keep guys like PJ happy (favorable to free leases)while being able to pay someone slightly less on their NBA check, considering the luxury tax implications the savings can add up. I'm sure if it is in his power he will feed the players to keep them happy.

    On another note, I am not sure what the NBA rules are regarding offering players kickbacks like this, seems like owning a Rolls and Bentley dealership is a good bargaining tool when trying to attract talent.
