  1. Not exactly surprising. Without Steph, this is a roster who spends this season wondering when they should pull the plug to take a crack at Flagg.
  2. Fine. Game 1 or 3 if you want to be pedantic.
  3. If that song/intro didn't give you chills before the tipoff of Game 1 of virtually every Eastern Conference Finals in the 90's, I hate you, and I need you to not be alive anymore.
  4. Stupid lib. Like any countries are going to voluntarily send their best athletes to America by 2028. Art of the deal.
  5. Yep. Can't say I know the first thing about this guy--or any of the candidates--but now I can confidently proclaim that it's a homerun.

    LBGTQ

    I think that was probably my favorite Johnny Sackism. "We have multiple gay people at our Church, and we treat them with same respect and decency as everyone else. We just happen to believe that their existence is a sin. No biggie."
  7. You're assuming that Trump has the slightest clue where the most famous photo in American history was taken. He does not.
  8. Definitely. They have to play at their absolute worst to lose. The Tatum/Brown core has proven through the years that they can lay an egg at literally any time. But they can also string some wins together. It wouldn't surprise me at all if it resembled the 2012 WCF, when OKC got punched in the mouth twice by San Antonio, then reeled off 4 straight.
  9. Analyzing a Pope's retweets is a phrase I wish never had to exist.
  10. "Welcome to the Version Wireless Vatican Arena. I love you."
  11. Maybe when it stops working perfectly, he'll pivot.
  12. Marc Elias has got to be one tired, incredibly frustrated dude. Truly an American hero.
  13. Ok, but you have to admit that, after the 900 hundredth song/chant/speech/declaration/reminder about how special it is to be a Ghor, Imperial propaganda pretty much wrote itself. Uppity bastards should be miserable like the rest of us.
  14. It will be a cold day in hell before I pay for your underwater basket weaving degree from Woke Indoctrination University!
  15. I understand that telling a team to change its gameplan--and what's essentially its identity--mid-game because the 3's aren't falling is easier said than done, but would it kill Boston to show a little urgency? Instead of running one action with 8 seconds on the shot clock before a pull up or one pass and shoot, I don't know, maybe run a play with 14 seconds on the clock and make New York defend multiple actions? If it still results in a 3, so be it, but at least the ball would be moving.
  16. Can one of you nerds explain the Imperial ranking system? It's obvious that red means military and blue means bureaucrat or intelligence, but how does one go about leveling up in both? Like did Krennic start out being a boots on the ground soldier before joining what amounts to CIA-Empire?
  17. To be fair, even if Horner didn't believe that, that was always going to be his answer to try to create turmoil.
  18. Sorry if already mentioned, but I assume the knowing little nod between the two Senate building workers after they told the ISB agent that the control room was locked and the key was in a different office meant that they worked for Luthen or someone similar?
  19. Can I just not watch a game where the home team instantly jumps out to a 20 point lead like normal, or is it a guarantee that Denver is winning this one?
  20. Decades of "police aren't always perfect, but they have a difficult job trying to protect us" conditioning and "why was he running/resisting?" propaganda has an effect on society.
  21. I think that's pretty common throughout the league. Lots of playoff instances of the better team coming out flat expecting little resistance from a depleted team, and the "scrubs" playing like they have nothing to lose. But, yeah, if Minny can't find a way to bring the intensity tomorrow after being embarrassed last night, that would be pretty concerning.
  22. There have been plenty of reasonable criticisms about the pacing, the writing, and the likeability/believability of the characters within this thread. The incel stuff has been mostly reserved to people upset that Ellie isn't as attractive as a 14 and 19 year old video game character, people bringing "gender politics" into the discussion, and people using "Top reddit commentators" as a reference point.
  23. I don't think they're garbage at all. They're really good. I think they'd still be a ever-so-slight favorite in this series with a healthy Steph. I just think OKC and Boston are a clear step ahead, and I'd probably pick Denver over either of these teams as well because of Jokic.
