    I would think it wouldn't be hard for Biden's AG to remove her - he or she just has to be patient, and Powell will get out of her lane/do something batshit crazy/illegal/whatever, and that's all she wrote.

    Or just remove her day one because you can. Fuck the opinions of trumpers. Let them think it was political. Who cares? They don’t get a seat at the table anymore.

    Fair enough. He is an all time glue guy. 

    I was doing like Derka as well. Like AJ makes the roster because every team needs a guy to run off screens and shoot every once in a while. Think NBA JJ Reddick.

    The scenario you laid out is where a guy like Ivey comes into the roster. He can guard those bigger guards and small wings because off the length he had.

    Also this is a ridiculous look at the talent we’ve had come through here. Like what’s the scoring breakdown. I mean like you said TJ’s line would be like 0, 16, 1 every night. KD and PJ getting looks from TJ. Yeesh.

    and i as well don't disagree with what you're saying- i just think Mo was special in that regard. he was beyond great, at rim protection; the guy was transcendent. but as you said, with Mihm, TT, KD, Damion, etc we aren't lacking for rim protection. still, Mo is the best i've ever seen in that regard. 

    Check my edit. I think you’re right.

    i actually just made an edit to my last post saying as much, but to me he's got to be on my team. im going to heavily rely on maybe 6-8 guys on this team for the most part, while the rest, as great as they are, will be role players and bit players. I want Mo Bamba on the court when the game is tight and i'm trying to hold onto a lead. I've honestly never seen another player in league history who affected as many shots as Mo did. He virtually shut down everything within 8 feet of the hoop, and that's a great commodity to have for when you need it. 

    I don’t disagree but I think you’re overlapping with skills already on the roster. TT was an elite level rim protector in college and KD obviously has the ability. You have Mihm for size if you need it plus we know what PJ can do on defense against anyone.

    Edit: That said Mo averaged a full block more per game than TT so maybe Thomas doesn’t make my squad which makes me sad.

    indeed.  seem to have gotten at least some of the offensive mojo back.  a season defined by international breaks.
    4-0-0 (with a win over tottenham)
    international break.
    0-3-1
    international break
    3-1-1 (with wins over chelsea and leicester)
    the arsenal match this weekend is huge.  they are beaten down and we can really benefit if we step on their throats.
    on another note, is anyone else getting to a point where they find liverpool games are getting unwatchable because their players fucking have a conniption fit every single time a call doesn't go their way?  ball goes out of bounds clearly for a corner?  thirty dudes losing their minds like someone murdered their mom in front of them.  every. single. fucking. play.
    that is with the exception of mane.  that dude is complete class and a total badass.  won't root for that team but hard not to root for that dude.  works his ass off, puts the stupid neymar shit that everyone else at liverpool seems to be infected with to the side, and kicks ass.  guy is incredible.
    also, any word on what jose was being a prick about to klopp at the end about?  just classic jose?

    What games do you watch...

    No shit lol

    Did they change how VAR works? We’d have 4 more points this season (wins against Brighton and Everton) if they went with this quick check version. 

    That’s what my issue was. We took no fucking time at all there. Where was the little double line dotted line shit that fucks us outta goals every week lol.

    I guess Riley has to make the decision on two things:
    - chemistry
    - is getting a star this year instead of next worth losing a couple of good young pieces?

    It's a tough call. Butler seems to have no issue deferring to other guys, which is a check in the "pros" column.

    Obviously from a basketball perspective Harden should be a huge gain. Lots of moving pieces. And honestly I suspect the Rockets already have better offers on the table so it's probably moot anyway. The Heat can't trade Bam for 6 months even if they wanted to, which they don't.

    Bam should be the only guy on their roster that is untouchable
