  1. GSW needs 1 at home to get to Game 6. Surely Jimmy has a 40 point in him. His 3’s unfortunately started falling in Game 7 against the Rockets and he was already shooting 10+ free throw a game. Ant is still developing his taste for blood, I think Game 6 happens.
  2. While gripped by the Thursday scaries, I’m enjoying some JD Single Malt. Y’all keep walking by it on the shelf.
  3. Yeah LA, New York, and Miami is superstar boilerplate bullshit. I miss Woj.
  4. Big Drive-Away Dolls fan?
  5. I think White POTUS II is a lock. They probably won’t push the envelope, but they one of the greatest method actors alive on set this week. Take some shots.
  6. Yep. Chris Evans needs to go away for awhile. I don’t think he right for a Coen, albeit a diminished Coen, movie.
  7. The decline of 247 Sports has been shocking to watch. This might be their nadir.
  8. The rumors are Giannis wants to play in New York, LA, or Miami. https://www.si.com/nba/nets/news/report-new-york-teams-among-giannis-antetokounmpo-preferred-trade-destinations I believe the Nets have the best trade assets out of all of those teams.
  9. I think Ime would be pro FVV 3 year extension. Not sure where Stone stands, but I think he’d favor salary flexibility. As the Locked On Rockets guy has cleverly pointed out, FVV was supposed to be a band aid until Jalen Green could run the offense. That obviously won’t be happening. 1) Resign Adams 2) Trade Green 3) Sign a plus WAR veteran shooting guard on a short term deal. 4) Draft Tre Johnson or Fears, and actually play them as rookies. They need to be ready to start in Year 2. 5) Team option on FVV. 6) Trade for Durant. That’s probably a 55 win team that can multiple playoff series.
  10. Will Simmons do an emergency pod or hide until Friday? My money is on Friday with an intro riddled with non-Celtics excuses. “House and I went to a late dinner” or “Chris Ryan and I stayed up late to work on our White Squall Rewatchable”.
  11. Well reasoned. I was trying to remember Hidalgo’s name. Apparently, the guy is the living, breathing Star Wars Encyclopedia.
  12. To Kennedy’s credit, she brought Gilroy in to fix Rogue One, and got him in the door at Lucasfilm. Jon and Dave sure as shit couldn’t fix that script.
  13. Allegedly the Gilroy side doesn’t really communicate with the Filoni/Favreau side. Gilroy has never brought them up in several long interviews on The Ringer. There’s even some “not my Star Wars” bullshit out there in the Filoni-Verse. Could be idle industry gossip, I mean who knows with Lucasfilm after the Kennedy retirement/not retirement mystery, but it’s plausible. Jon has said there’s no Andor without Mando’s success, and Dave gave it a half assed, back handed compliment. Reading between the lines, Dave thinks Star Wars is for kids and seems resistant to “adult Star Wars”. Hopefully Gilroy gets his Death Troopers project made, Ahsoka Season 2 and the Mando movie are good, and the 2 sides can coexist.
  14. I had lunch with a friend that just got in under the wire at XOM. 5 years as a contractor, overcame some personal shit, and now finally an employee. His entire department is expecting a raise in October. I’m really happy for him. Good time to be at a big shop to ride this shit out.
