  1. The Hoops Collective made a good Reed point after the Bucks game. Windhorat said that the reason they were excited about Reed at Kentucky was his offensive skill set + playmaking on defense. Steals, blocks, and deflections. I think the game is slowing down for him some and he’s putting his hands and body in the right places on defense to become a disruptor. I don’t he’s ever going to be a lock down defender at his size, but he’s going to blow some shit up.
  2. Anything on James Franklin and piggy? He would kill from them there. I hope it doesn’t happen.

    Not bad for $2.20 (there were 4 enchiladas there).
  4. Sarr can really play. Super long and shoots well. Maybe middle class Wemby is the comparison? The Hawks probably want a do over of the 2024 Draft. Sheppard playing lights out. I think they’re playing him about the right amount of minutes right now, but he’s pushing for more.
  5. Gym is interchangeable for arena, i referenced Toyota Center in the same paragraph, and luxury boxes in the same sentence.
  6. Toyota Center has the best sight lines of any pro arena I’ve been in. Glad they’re upgrading the seats. I’m sure they’ll start bitching about the luxury boxes soon, but they don’t need a new gym.
  7. Allegedly the Wizards front office and ownership are supposed to be competent and they love Tre. Sarr can play and they’re in the East. They need better lottery luck, but I could see Tre playing in the postseason during his rookie deal.
  8. The food truck in Lebanon was refrigerated and they were storing human bodies in it. So why are they worried about human bodies spoiling? If the others can’t kill any living thing, how are they going to feed the joined? 980 million human bodies would be a pretty convenient food source. Like I said, the unpleasantness of being the joined is the next shoe to drop.
  9. What’s a bargain McCollum trade look like? My apologies. I assume he’s gotten healthy. His quicks and handles look fine, and he’s always been a been good shooter.
  10. I believe he said the president and most of the senior administration are dead. Remember there are 2 Air Force Ones. Diabete is likely rolling in the alternate and the primary went down with all onboard.
  11. So… when does Nico take an assistant GM position with the Lakers?
  12. This. 1) Getting in. 2) Hosting in that order. The bye is too long of a layoff, but I think most coaches would take an automatic quarterfinal birth.
  13. Yeah I think the unpleasantness of being with the others is the next shoe to drop. It’s been theorized that they don’t sleep and are working constantly to clean up after the disaster. Gilligan deeply dislikes and distrusts AI by his own public statements. I think the others and the hive mind are an analogy of AI. If true, it’s truly ironic that’s an Apple TV show.
  14. Death by Lightning. What a profoundly sad show. By all accounts, Garfield was a salt of the earth type much like Lincoln. A worthy, if reluctant heir to his legacy. I think Offerman should win an Emmy. Betty Gilpin should get nominated. Shannon, Whigham, and Bradley Whitford are just so steady and competent that they really didn’t stick out. Kind of like a good offensive line.
  15. Couldn’t get into UT. Why take 100 words to say the same thing in 4?
  16. Yeah I think Brady is the only guy that would take the job at this point, and they’d have to wait until nearly Spring Ball to bring him in. Hartline could probably get Penn State. Stein just has to wait out Fisch’s departure at Washington. There are some reports out there that Fisch’s family hates Seattle and moved back to Arizona. So UW opening up might be imminent.
  17. The Heat are in a destination city, they always think they’re close, in the East, and they struck out on every single star this offseason. You gotta think informal talks are being had about AD and Kyrie.

    Weird chile con carne, but worth it for a couple bucks.
  19. So they did exactly what I predicted they would do sans a Landry press conference. Please (Never) change Louisiana.
  20. Golden is very nice. Tiny stadium. DII school. But I like where your head is at.
  21. Portnoy is wasting his money. He lives in the Keys, likely in a gated community. Somebody would have to be really committed to harm him. There many, many cameras on the Seven Mile Bridge. The ferry requires a ticket. They’d catch the guy before he could get back to Miami. I’m sure FOX provides security when he’s location for Big Noon. Portnoy’s delivery on Wake Up Barstool is something else. He’s hungover every single Monday morning, and the only topic he’ll engage on is the Patriots or Michigan Football. Otherwise, he’s passively listening or trying to catch tropical birds that got into his house. Rolling out of bed 5 days a week to podcast in your Florida Keys mansion is a rough way to make a living.
  22. She cleans up very well. Married to a guy a slightly taller than Peter Dinklage.
  23. Loving the discussion, but Murray tore his ACL in January 2025. I think it’s a 2 year recovery to fully return. To 100%. That said, Murray at 80-90% is intriguing.
