  1. Haha yeah I’ve kinda been thinking the same thing with some of the reactions in the softball thread, but this is Surly.
  2. You say that like it’s a bad thing.
  3. Least Texas ladies are in the championship, but I agree.
  4. Lol so desperate we’re replaying a HBP
  5. Holy shit Jalin looks completely lost. Yikes.
  6. Not to mention has done fuck all at the plate and keeps having runners on.
  7. Holy shit what a shot. Hate to see it but massive clutch AB in the CWS. But seriously, fuck OU.
  8. Flores with a chance at redemption
  9. The doom and gloom is over now?
  10. Let’s fuckin go boys!
  11. Yes wasn’t the last one Haliburton’s balls celebration haha
  12. May have a new series of the playoffs brewin. What a great finish.
  13. I’m very impressed by the refs that are able to make it look even at a macro level. The sheer number of touch fouls that FTA received that were momentum shifting in the game is pretty amazing. The one where FTA fell on his own volition as noted upthread was atrocious and the fact that they got to keep the ball when the result was a travel was laughable. Somewhat satisfying seeing Wolves fans on Reddit and X notice the same thing Nuggets fans did. If one team is allowed to maul you and get called fouls on a small percentage of those mauls, but that same team when they get touched or breathed on gets fouls called in their favor, that is a mentally draining thing for a competitor. If Wolves are to win, they’re going to need to drive to the basket and demand some fairness on the touch calls near the rim. It feels like this has been predetermined. OKC is going to the finals.
  14. I didn’t. Gonna be snarky, at least be correct. Statistically speaking Embiid had the most FTA per game of any modern day MVP. Harden 6th. Yes Harden sells his fouls as bad as SGA does. https://fadeawayworld.net/nba/10-nba-mvps-with-the-most-free-throws-per-game-of-all-time
  15. This is certainly a take. AG clearly pulled his hamstring on the kick ball with about 20 seconds left in the 4th of G6. Was limping around the court for the remainder of the game. This is rich coming from a fan of a team that has feasted on flopping in a 7 game series that is also clearly propped up by the refs on those flops. Similar plays by OKC on defense yield comments of “oh that’s just good defense”. At this point it’s laughable, but both teams are doing what the NBA wants: Game 7. I can’t recall the last time I saw a team this “good” that collectively flops as much as SGA, J Dub and Dort do. Is what it is, but SGA will go down with Embiid as the biggest flopping free throw merchant MVPs in history.
  16. For sure. AG hurt his hamstring at the end of the game on that kick ball. He was moving pretty gingerly. Here’s to hoping he’s not too hindered Sunday.
  17. Let’s go Nuggs! This was the one Russ made btw lol.
  18. As stated, Watson should be getting more tick. Also, for how much of a waste of money and space Zeke Nnaji has been in the past, last 1/3rd of the season he was playing decent and was at least a body to bring in for a Jokic spell that was much better than anything Dario Saric was showing, especially defensively. Watson, Strawther and Nnaji aren’t getting enough minutes, especially in a game like G2 where result of game was known at half. Can’t believe Jokic had to foul himself out so Adelman didn’t have a choice. Next season, DaRon Holmes should see good minutes. All accounts behind the scenes are he’s showing a lot of promise. At this point I’m most interested in who we hire as a head coach, because past 2 4th quarter collapses to me mean Adelman has taken himself out of the conversation.
  19. Just terrible finishing to games the past 2 by the Nuggets. Had the series upset in our hands. Series may go to 7, but the series is lost in game 5 at 2-2.
  20. You mean one game, game 1? We lose this in the 4th and would be 2 games back to back.
  21. Please no. I don’t think I can take another 4th quarter collapse.
  22. Just realized even after edit it doesn’t make sense. Have had a fun weekend and today is no different. Will put the sure down haha.
  23. I mean we can hope. I fear we lose G5 and are too tired to win G7 if we’re to win G6. G5 is massive.
