  1. Someone paid me, I think possibly @RexWilson? Thanks.
  2. 7 please
  3. The first one is the girl, the second is the boy.
  4. She also has Philly in 5
  5. Here's mine. Boy has 6ers in 5. Daughter at dance until noon, I'll get her series pick in by tip and then the rest of theirs after.
  6. Pretty sure my daughter is hitting 100% for 4 games. That's on brand.
  7. Most of the awards are looking like they are going to be blowouts judging by what Twitter tracking guy is seeing.
  8. Girl picks Miami and Minnesota Boy picks Chicago and Minnesota Give me Heat and Thunder
  9. I believe you, @RexWilson and @Capn81 should be sending your $125 to me directly and @shadow_operative and his crew will resolve as mentioned above. Link to my venmo
  10. I mean it wasn't really ever formally agreed on by everyone but I quoted the most recent posts above. I proposed 150 and z said let's do 125 and it seems like we kind of ran with that. I do not care for the record.
  11. On mobile and can't delete the dupe quote so sorry. I went back and this is what I found about payouts. If we were doing $125 we should have a pool of $1k. It looks like it should be regular season winner gets $250 and then 1st and second chop up $750. I guess 500/250. Fair? Since no one paid in, including the 3 who have $ coming, that's all less $125 each. Reg season champ Lou should have $125 coming his way Timmy should have $125 coming his way. You all overpaid him by $75. My team should have $375 coming. For simplicity's sake have Timmy send one of you back $100 and the other person whose $ Timmy kept owes him another $25. The person who Timmy sends their money back to can send BB Lemon Pepper Lou $125. Then the 3 others can send me $125 each and that's the $375. Does that work for everyone? I'll put my Venmo here later.
  12. bump, anyone with more recent experience with PRP injections?
  13. I had a really shitty couple of weeks in late Feb that included needing to get my wife's windshield repaired from a crack that made it undrivable but without having any time to deal with it. I put in for an at home replacement from Safelite online. It was so expensive (similar to your quote iirc for a Chrysler Pacifica) that I had to do an insurance claim for it and pay the $500 deductible. Oh well. Service was great though. Gave him my keys told him I was going to be on calls all day and leave the keys in it when done.
  14. For the benefit of the pool I am sponsoring another child. This one is going to probably pick based on uniform color and it will be very annoying when she wins. And before anyone gets any ideas, $25 is not nearly enough for me to try to game the system. She is taking OKC and Chicago tonight.
  15. I don't think anyone paid up front so the winners have $100 less coming to them. Also that only adds up to $700 but I failed math.
  16. Both my kid and I are taking Miami and LA tonight Tomorrow I'm taking Toronto and OKC. He is taking Chicago and NO
  17. Are we to the point yet where when Draymond says crazy shit on his podcast it's basically like the scene in Tommy Boy where Farley had hijacked the 5 o clock news broadcast and everyone would rather watch American Gladiators?
  18. In for me and the boy
  19. Looks like the wheels are in motion. Phx has already listed the big four out, and Ty Lue said postgame everyone is playing.
  20. Slightly clearer than mud now in the West. Lakers (Utah) and Warriors (Por) will win tomorrow. So the outcome of Phx/LAC will determine who is the 5 and who is the 6. I guess?? I would expect Phoenix to sit everyone being locked in and thinking they would rather play PG-less Clippers than the Warriors? Clippers will have to play to win because Golden State and Lakers are playing at the same time and will be playing to win. Most likely in my mind Clippers 5 seed, Warriors 6, Lakers 7, Wolves 8, Pels 9
  21. Extremely fair opinion. I wasn't really locked in but I watched the first half last night and I began to wonder if I wasn't having early season bias. I remember texting with friends earlier this year... He was def out of shape and laboring. He was a lot more active last night. Even so I guess my greater point is that some of these guys today are so just remarkably talented. Man they could be on Rushmore if they really cared about being great. I can't even fathom how good guys like Luka and Joel could be if they had MJ or Zeke or Magic's fire, or if they worked like Bron or Kobe or Giannis. Old Man yelling at clouds. I'm sure someone in 1997 said the same thing about Shaq. I was too busy drinking Beast Ice to notice. I am going to throw out there that I think people are sleeping on the Warriors a bit too much. With their top unit tonight they looked very much like a team that knew what they were doing defensively. Communication on point. Switches on point. It gets squirrelly when Poole gets in but GP2 is plug and play. We'll see how Wiggins acclimates but the Steph/Klay/Loon/Dray/GPII lineup was locked in and connected on the defensive end. I think the best two teams in the West are going to be Phoenix and GSW and I can't see anyone else being competitive with those two unless Podcast P is faking and comes back next week.
  22. JP thanks for bringing it tonight buddy. 😂 This is getting extremely weird. I think we're good but there are still 5-6 categories up for grabs.
  23. He's not out of shape per se I suppose. But he's not even close to in as good of shape as he could be in. And of course he tries some of the time but watch him. His team plays 4 on 5 often because he doesn't hustle down the court or takes himself out of plays, for example. Again he's banged up but he plays like that all the time. He doesn't have to be in Bron or Giannis level shape but imagine if he was in say, Sabonis shape or even Jarret Allen shape. I love Jo and I think he deserves MVP and I hope he does win it. But I think he could be better, which is a scary thought. Just my opinion.
  24. The crazy thing about Joel is imagine how good he would be if he got into shape and tried 100% of the time. He's this good and he's not in top shape. I know he is banged up, but he could do a lot for himself if he really dedicated his offseason to getting into the best shape of his career. So could Doncic. I listened to a pod with Joel last year, can't remember if it was OM3 or one of the other ones, and he is so fucking talented that the guy basically watched 30 minutes of Kobe highlights and then went out and incorporated them into his game. Not like over the course of 3 years, like in a day.
