Dumb. Beasley is one of 4 players not named Steph to ever make 300+ threes in a season. Cade was 0-8 on threes for the game, and it would have been an off-balance, contested attempt. Malik had already made 6, and it would have been a wide open look. That was absolute the right play.
It was the right play but in retrospect it would have been better to have Cade miss it so that he can go full Rocky montage this offseason.

It was 110-105 Detroit with about 3 minutes left, Detroit had the ball and all the momentum and the Knicks were clearly tired and JBB...inexplicably calls a timeout (and I think Cade had a wide open lane at that possession) - and Detroit turned it over on their immediate possession ATO.
After that TO, the Knicks outscored the Pistons 11-3 the rest of the game.
Classic JBB. He's a guy who can get the team to play hard but he will never, ever, ever, be an elite or championship coach. Just baffling in-game decisions that I saw the last four years and was on display this whole series.
To be clear both of these teams have levels that they need to ascend to become true championship contenders. Like fucking levels. When you lock in and watch Championship level teams playing at Championship levels in the finals, it looks nothing like this series. I'm paying more attention to the Detroit side of things but it's certainly true for NY, also or they would have won this series in 4 or 5 games with their talent level and experience compared to Detroit's. You cannot just lose people repeatedly on defense and be expected to be a championship contender. You cannot repeatedly not box out and give up uncontested put backs. To your point, you cannot make terrible challenges that have a low chance of success.
Long way of saying if Boston is healthy I think they will roll NY and JBB is fine for now. I'm not sure he's a guy that takes you over the finish line but he's done a great job with the current bunch. I see no reason to change coaches.

Trixie (12 months) going in for her spay tomorrow. Think good thoughts. I don't know what's wrong with me but I'm a little anxious about it. I'm a dog veteran, so I thought. Damn these creatures.
Lots of whimpering coming off of the anaesthesia. Very tired now. Please leave that incision alone and don't make me put that cone of shame on you.

I'm looking forward to the inevitable theatrics between Rudy and Draymond. Assuming GS can close it out.
Shaq... 🤣🤣

I'm only 2 episodes into season 2. I loved season 1. I didn't play the games but know what happens in the story.
Question: in the game, is Ellie as completely unlikable as she's become in season 2? I loved her in season 1. In that game, is she just an unlikable bitch? Is her season 2 character staying true to the game or is this just a really bad adaptation?
Have not watched ep 3 but the general online sentiment is that this episode minus Joel and full dose of Ellie/Belle Ramsey is causing people to Nope to the rest of the season. If she's even more of an unlikable bitch in this episode, I may be right there with them.
I don't mean to single you out but I keep seeing similar sentiment about Ellie here. Are people actually paying attention to what is going on or just doing the Joel is the protagonist, I'm going to Stan for him at every opportunity thing? It feels like the Sopranos and BB in some ways.
Joel is not a good guy in the show. He's a conflicted, tortured soul who does some heinous shit. Ellie is not stupid. Ellie's sole meaning in life was to deliver a cure. She would have happily given her life for it. She knows he lied about SLC. She was pissed at him in S2E1. The writers were intentionally trying to show that he was continuing to be overbearing as a protector and she was sick of it. She didn't know what exactly happened in SLC but she clearly knew he was lying to her. So fuck yeah she's pissed and being an asshole to him. For all of one episode. I don't understand all of the angst about Ellie being unlikeable because she was an asshole to a guy who slaughtered innocent people who were trying to save humanity. For one episode.
Disclaimer. I didn't finish and don't gaf about the game. It's a good show.
I'm not noping out yet. It's still good. I will nope the fuck out of a series that I start that becomes terrible.

How in the hell did this Royal Kingdom game/app land LeBron as their pitch man?

Sounds like AT for Dame. Ugh.

Did you guys read the article? The prick originally booked a 2 queen suite through the hotel and then cancelled and booked the king suite through the third party site because it was cheaper. His plan all along was to try to talk his way into an upgrade.

Definitely a foul but KAT made the big shots and Cade missed two that were halfway down. I'm not going to get on JBB too much with the job he has done this year but maybe don't use your challenge on something so borderline 2 minutes into the first quarter?

I really like this Houston team, as bad as they were tonight. I am even starting to like Dillon Brooks. They play hard, and physical.
I know a lot of people hate on the Dubs but just as a fan of the game, there is little more enjoyable to watch these days than Wardell going Wardell.
I hope Beef Stew can play tomorrow. I'd like that series to not be over in 5.

Ok so I was thinking about it. It's been a few years since I tried to do a brisket on my Primo and I remembered why I stopped doing it. The bottom would burn up. I kept temps low but I had the same issue enough that I stopped. I don't know if it is a product of the Primo design, or the insert plate or what. I'm just going to say keep the fat cap thick and cook it fat cap down.
But seriously french dressing.

Cut it in two and finish it in the oven. Baste liberally in French dressing. If you don't have French, Thousand Island will do.

Ja goes down hard.
Great shot making down the stretch by the Knicks. KAT is unguardable when he wants to be. Terrible decision making by the young Jalen Durham on the jump ball and inbound pass. Young fella gotta grow from this. Maybe I'm biased but I'm still taking Cade over Brunson if only because he's much more fun to watch.

Hey Reg his name is Jalen DurEN

Doesn't seem like it is handling the NFL draft traffic very well.

They did a terrible job casting Abbey. In the video game she was a 6 ft 7 black man.

It doesn't make any sense in the show, but in the 1st game she was a pretty little non-potato girl that reminded him of his daughter.
Fair. I got hooked into the show with the intro in the pilot and then bought the game because I was liking the show. I actually stopped playing the game because it was spoiler tagging the show.
She does look like a potato. But I think she's a pretty good actor and liked her in Thrones, too.
