Woj Finding Different Ways To Phrase His Draft Spoiler Tweets So They Weren't Technically Spoilers Was The Best Part Of The NBA Draft
NY Times- For years, the fiercest competition during the N.B.A. draft was among reporters trying to scoop one another, nearly rendering ESPN’s telecast obsolete in the process.
Before the draft, reporters from league broadcast partners ESPN, Turner Sports and Yahoo were instructed not to disclose draft selections on social media before they were officially announced, according to multiple people with direct knowledge of the decision. “We spoke with our media partners about our preference that ESPN’s exclusive broadcast rights be honored, but each organization will make its own editorial decisions,” an N.B.A. spokesman said on Tuesday.
So for those that don’t know, the NBA apparently tried to bottle up Woj and all the other reporters last night. The problem with that was anybody that didn’t work for those companies could do whatever they wanted. So our boy Woj took matters into his own hands.

Look at Woj going deeeeeeep into his trusty Merriam-Webster to get around the spoiler blackout rules placed on him by the NBA. “Locked in”, “Focused on”, and announcing trades of two guys that hadn’t even been drafted yet. That’s a dude who just loves the game. The hustle. The grind. ESPN tried to put handcuffs on Woj during his Christmas and he ripped out of them like the Incredible Hulk then dropped Woj Bombs on our heads the rest of the night. Does this look like the face of a man you want to put in a corner?
You think Woj was going to let Shams and Marc Stein take his shine the night the NBA offseason kicks off? Fuck no. He punted Shams off the planet and put NBA Twitter on his back on the single biggest night of the year. You don’t become the Bomberman of Basketball by adhering to other peoples’ rules. You find a way around those rules by slapping the word Sources in front of your tweet, pick a spicy synonym out of the thesaurus, keep dominating the competition, and completely cuck the NBA.

Even the guy that gives the card to Adam Silver was SHOOK.
You knew we were in for a special night when Woj dropped fucking lasers on our head. LASERS!
Then #WojAfterDark kicked off and got sexy with it

Finally the Wojbot suffered a glitch before cooling down at the end of the first round and mailing in the 2nd round because who really cares?

Now the question is what will ESPN do? You wanna suspend The Woj? YOU CAN’T SUSPEND THE WOJ! At least until all the big free agent signings happen and the trade landscape is quiet. But until then, ESPN’s ass is in the jackpot. And then when Woj does get suspended from Twitter, I bet he will take a much-needed vacation during the summer. That’s how you Insider, folks. #TeamWoj for motherfucking life.
P.S. I’m pretty sure Quavo could beat the bag off all of the NBA insiders considering he had Trae Young to Atlanta ten (10) days ago.
*Except Woj. I’m pretty sure he could have told us the Top 5 of next year’s draft along with the order they would be picked in when he was synonyming us all to another dimension
