what has transpired in really the entire state, and NYC, are definitively hurting the areas.
What do you think is happening in NYC?

Just now catching up on this thread (which started off shit, and then took an interesting turn, and now is back to meh).
I continue to be confused by the suggestion that music of the early aughts itself is reflective of a shift to passivity in society. 650 is a great poster and I'm sure knows more about music than I do (and is older, so lived through the supposed shift), so I'm not dismissing it out of hand.
It just seems an odd connection to make when the 80s and 90s are littered with very, very popular and important bands who were sad, woe is me saps either lyrically, in tone or in overall vibes. Obviously the Smiths, the Cure, Joy Division, etc. Sonic Youth to some degree. Pearl Jam and Nirvana have some of the biggest sad sap, feel sorry for yourself lyrics around, albeit presented with a veneer of aggression? My avatar released Creep in 92. Elliott Smith. The list goes on and on and on. REM wrote a don't fucking kill yourself song in 1992 as one of the biggest rock bands in the world.
I guess my point is that even if you were to concede that (a) there was some societal shift towards passivity, and (b) the music and/or bands of the early aughts were themselves "passive" (whatever that actually means), it seems to be more coincidental that correlated.

I really liked the first one. I enjoyed parts of this this, but ultimately a let down.

Are places like Harwood Arms or Jugged Hair worth going to outside of the Sunday Roast? I’m going to London for my first family (not work) trip, but arriving late on Sunday so will miss the roast this time.

As a Knicks fan I am desperately hoping to see Scott Foster in Indiana for games 2 and 3. Come on Adam Silver, pull your best David Stern impression!

Something has definitely clicked. I just don't believe in "getting hot" when it comes to the NBA Playoffs. The better team almost always wins every series. To me it looks like they are stroking it because they are playing basketball at a ridiculously high level.
You get hot when your team is on the same page and making the right plays and playing confident and selfless.
Hence why I compared them to the 2014 Spurs.
Probably not a coincidence that it “feels” like a lot of their looks have a foot or more of space. Not sure if it’s bad defensive or great offense, but they are getting great looks and knocking them down.
Both these teams getting stroked by OKC.

Seeming like a sweep

Have the Pacers missed a shot since the 4th quarter Game 1. Just fucking insane

Stayed in upper west side last week and loved it. 79th street and broadway.
Very quiet neighborhood with tons of small families and not near as much traffic(foot and car) as lower. 22 minutes on the redline to shows on broadway. Restaurants weren’t as plentiful as soho, Chelsea, and other west side haunts, but plenty and still only a short subway there. I’ll never stay in midtown again.Find anything good in bed stuy?

I’m taking a bunch of clients over to Indy for game 4. I really need the Knicks not to be down 0-3 in that game.

Yeah, the Knicks didn't really even choke. They made some shots down the stretch, only missed one free throw, and didn't have any turnovers. Indiana just couldn't miss.
Towns and OG both missed FTs

This will be the first time in NBA history they will have 7 different champs in a 7 year span. And got me thinking of all the other major sports here, how often that happens?
This is about as new blood of a final 4 as I can ever remember in the NBA. Minnesota has 0 NBA Finals appearances in their history. OKC has 0 titles since they relocated, their lone title is by proxy when Seattle won in the 80s. Knicks have 0 titles in over 50 years and their last NBA Finals appearance was 1999 in the strike shortened season. Indiana has 0 titles and their last appearance was the year after the Knicks when the Kobe/Shaq duo got their first ring.
In a few weeks one of Ant, SGA, Brunson or Haliburton will be a champ. Cool time in the league.

Okc on the verge of getting crushed at home like the Suns. They look lost.
Good call.

I’m heading that way tomorrow night. If I survive the red eye with a toddler, we’re staying at Connaught with Harwood Arms for Sunday roast. Have a few reservations like Dishoom and others, but mostly will just be bumming around between the office and the Connaught while wife and child live the good life.
