  1. Which games last year? Believe it or not, the Denver series worried me more than the Pacers. Denver was the only team I thought OKC could play their best against and still lose. Jalen Williams played for shit, though. He was much better in the other series.
  2. I don't know who "we" are but the only team in a series is probably Denver, because Jokic is a load and they hade some good off season moves. OKC has more depth than anyone and it's not that close. Their top 3 are as good as anyone else's but guys like Ajay Mitchell would be the starting PG on some of these other teams.
  3. OKC, Denver, and Houston are the early favorites. People love to hate on the Luka trade but I agree with you about Kyrie. If him and AD are ever healthy at the same time (lulz), they might be #1. Spurs might be a year away. Houston needs a guard.
  4. You're right. SGA is the first and only person ever to do that. Oh, wait:
  5. Don't discount whores. If you're Family Man Chauncey Billups and the mafia has been running whores for you, what do you think happens if the mafia goes public with that info?
  6. Second round draft pick and he looked really good last year until he got hurt. NBA size and can score from most anywhere. Solid defender. By the end of this season, he'll be good enough to be a staring PG on a good team. Great pick up.
  7. It's a time honored tradition on here to complain about refs. People will literally hate watch OU play another team and talk about holding the entire time.
  8. Caught it the other day on cable somewhere. It's even better when you watch the movie through the lens of Mr Beauchamp. There are multiple things going on in the movie but that angle is my favorite one.
  9. Saw the OKC/Houston game.... OKC didn't shoot that well, especially from three. Maybe some first game, ring ceremony nerves. They were missing Jalen Williams, who is probably the most important person for them defensively because of his versatility while still being able to create his own shot. Not much different from them vs last year. Houston? What the fuck is with this roster? Do they have any guards at all? Reed Sheppard is thisfar from being a bust. I thought he was ostensibly the back up PG but when the starting PG went down, he's still....the backup? So, he's a 3rd string PG and the now starting point guard is Amen Thompson? Is he even a guard? This roster seems like a garbled mess. They're committed to Durant and Thompson and Sengun are the future so hold on to them. Everyone else should be on the block to get some guards. Throw Little Reed Shephard in there. If someone is undersized, they need to be elite at something. (Dame Lilliard.) Unless they get some ball handling, they lose to OKC and Denver in 5. Sengun is the best player on the roster. KD will miss a block of games, especially at this age now. Not sure what they look like then. Officiating was horse shit all around. Very bad calls, in some cases, the refs are right there. Reviews take too long, too.
  10. With Lea, if Vandy is financially committed to winning, he should stay. That's now a good job. Arizona State should be a good job but they've never been committed so it'll be interested what he does.
  11. Who is going to hire the Arizona State coach?
  12. We've been watching this. Solid show and an easy watch.
  13. Working our way through the Netflix Starting 5 show. We're oddly entertained by the Tyrese Haliburton girlfriend storyline. (They've been together for 6 years when he was Iowa State and he's followed him from there to Sacramento to Indy and he still won't pop the question. He did in July, though.) 1. Dude is completely oblivious. 2. She was going to watch this show with him and see Shai completely obsess over his wife and kid and that would not go well. 3. I think that he wasn't intending to ask but then blew out his achilles and then realized she was going to be wheeling him around 24/7 and either she gave him an ultimatum or he realized he needed to do it.
  14. Just the entire front office.
  15. He's been pretty good so far. (Just did episode 2.) Harden is funny, as expected. Shai has been more interesting and shown more personality than I thought. Halliburton and Brown is so boring that they're ignoring him.
  16. Started the Netflix Starting 5 show last night. After one episode, it's already light years better than the last one. Their sports shows are all pretty good except that one. I guess they just got a collection of boring people.
  17. We're already there. Can't use race for college admissions (DEI!!!!) but can use race for racial profiling by ICE.
  18. Jennifer Welch is fucking fire. I don't know her but I know people that do. She started off with this very low budget but funny podcast and somehow now is the most articulate person in the entire Democratic Party. "I've Had It" is the podcast.
