    Shocked. I remove my personal opinion here and just see NBA writers being laid off. Sorry to see so many lose their jobs

    They should let Ramona Shelburne go.

    That's at least 5 layoffs right there.

    I see them going more forum style like clutch fans. Just the amount of traffic and knowledge on this forum makes these writers obsolete. Maybe just a core group managing plugging into certain credited forums per say would generate more than these writers.
