    Yep, if I had to guess:

    Biden wins AZ, NV, WI, MI, PA, NH, NE-02
    Trump wins NC
    I'm 50/50 on Georgia

    Marist had some polls (grain of salt) last night with Trump up less than 5 in both GA and NC.  I do recall in 2020 and 2022 that the Georgia polls were not good for Dems early and then flipped the closer to the election we got.  Because in March 2020, I was not counting on Georgia being a blue state in November. 

    If Trump takes back Georgia and Arizona, he still loses without flipping MI, PA, or WI. I just have a hard time seeing everything breaking for him given the current state of the GOP in those states.

    I have the same feeling, but that feeling also could be hope casting and we both might be whistling past the graveyard. 
    No matter what, Trump will claim it was rigged and will do whatever he accuses Biden of doing and more.
    It’s really important that it not be close for multiple reasons. In some ways a blowout Trump win is better for the country than a close Trump win and in any case seems more likely than a blowout Biden win.
     Im worried about Trump winning of course, but I’m also worried it will be close either way. 

    Trump is already claiming the 2024 election is going to be rigged. He's already planning his strategy when he inevitably loses. That, to me, speaks volumes about how he and his campaign see things going.

    The difference this time is he isn't the head of state.  I think it's going to be a very similar map to 2020 with maybe 1 or 2 states going back to Trump, but it won't be enough. I don't care if it's close or not, he just needs to lose.

    While not in the bag, it's a situation where it's Biden's to lose and if he plays it by the book, as analogy if he runs the ball 3 times in a row and doesn't try to get cute and throw it, he can run out the clock.

    I think a lot of moderate Republicans and conservative folks who are turned off by Trump will be just fine with another 4 years of Biden.

    That’s a better way of putting it.

  4. Polling issues causing some angst and a potential Biden health scare aside, am I the only one who feels like this isn't going to be particularly close? I don't think Trump can count on all of these people switching to him in the General. Meanwhile, he's out of money and the RNC is out of money to really do much about it.

    I disagree, Timmy's a lifetime 36% 3 point shooter over 11 seasons. This low 20% cold streak he's on will revert back to mean and it'll come in a string of ridiculous >40% games. In the meantime I think kidd's going to keep doing what he's done recently, giving him about 20 mins a game hoping he finds his rhythm. I wish Kidd would give Hardy Timmy's minutes though instead of exum. When exum plays too much he loses his efficiency and he starts to press.
     

    Agree here. Timmy will win us some games when he snaps out of this. But yea, the leash needs to be short until then. 

  6. CP also smoked a shot earlier in the game that hit the under side of the cross bar. He’s playing with a ton of confidence now.

    I had to switch careers when I left Texas. O&G isn’t a thing in WNC. It wasn’t easy at all, especially in my 40s, but I’m glad I uprooted myself. Leaving friends and family was hard too. But as someone previously mentioned, you either rip the bandaid off or stay in the same place forever. Parents, Kids, Jobs, these things will always be there, telling you to stay put. 

    Of course if Robinson is elected Governor here, might need to move again

    Which industry did you switch to?

    Why isn’t someone reminding him that Gafford was playing great AND they gave up a first round pick to get him. Burying him on the bench behind maxi makes absolutely no sense.

    Totally agree with this. The amount of minutes we're running Maxi out there is just stupid. He played 26 minutes against Philly and got 2....2 points. It's not an isolated game either. Here are his last 5 games.

    Is Reyna injured cause otherwise, he can't possibly suck enough to not see the pitch.  Forest's left mid is a complete black hole.  

    What a disaster of a loan move. Would have been better off sticking with BVB. Bottom of the prem is not a good place to be or develop. Maybe our guys will learn that after this one. 

  10. Got my tickets for USA-Bolivia at Jerry world. Haven't been to a match in years. They were pretty reasonably priced surprisingly.

    Bad THJ is really bad

    first half 11min, 11 shots, 2 makes, 3 fouls, 0 assists.

    losing to a 9 win team with Luka and Irving.

    Yea I think he’s playing himself out of minutes if that continues. He’s in a very bad way at the moment and we now have options. 
     

    Still won even if it was ugly. I don’t think anyone was predicting a 5-game winning streak 10 days ago. 
     

    we need to stop playing THJ and Hardy at the same time. It’s not pretty.
