  1. Wow, crazy episode, very GoT-ish in style. I didn't realize how many people they had in Jackson Hole. The place is massive, and there are way more people than what they show in the meetings that Tommy runs.
  2. Was there even contact there with Draymond's face?
  3. Draymond might have a better 3pt % in this series than Fred will. I don't know what's wrong with him, but he needs to fix it or stop taking 3s.
  4. 60-46 at half is nice. Rockets D is allowed to get away with a lot more contact and disruption in this one, which is how they like to play. If that keeps up, they should run away with this one, but you never know how the refs will call it from quarter to quarter. Fred is taking a lot less shots this game, which helps a lot. There has been a lot of indecisive possessions on offense for them, which is just mind boggling to me. So many times it seems like they just dribble and hand off a few times with no plan in mind, and then throw up a last second shot. I know they aren't going to fix that this offseason, but they really need a floor general this offseason. Jalen Green is going to be the downfall of this team. Dude needs to be more selective with his shots, and more aware of his surroundings. I don't know why Eason or Jabari aren't getting more minutes than him, they seems significantly more effective on defense, rebounding and 3pt shooting. Green would be fine if he was coming in as a 6th man and leading the offense while starters sit. I know he makes too much money to do that now (on an ill-advised, way too early extension), but that would be where he belongs with his current play style and decision making.
  5. I looked up my grandparents home in San Luis Obispo, and it's worth 1.37 million, and the taxes paid on that in 2024 was $1,520. When Grandma passed about 12 years ago, the home was given to her oldest son, who was over 65 at the time, and he was able to retain the cheap tax rate they had. He still lives there and gets to enjoy this silly system. You should not be able to inherit a tax rate, that is incredibly stupid.
  6. Speaking of dual citizenship options, I recently learned that my brother was able to apply for and get approved Romanian/EU citizenship because our great grandparents on Mom's side were from there. He said it cost about $2500 for the lawyer to do the paperwork and he expects to have an EU passport in a month or so. Apparently Romania has the easiest path to dual citizenship in the EU because you can use ancestry, and it's not a very strict process as other countries. If anyone else has that lineage, it's worth looking into it if you want an EU option.
  7. Naz Reid is losing his cool and making dumb fouls. This game is very physical, and it might turn into a brawl later. Some nice LBJ shots tonight, he's looking much better than Game 1.
  8. Payton just signed a 4 year 30 million extension this offseason, but both Ty and Malik are unrestricted free agents this offseason. I bet both of them get upgraded to starters next year, while Payton gets to be the first man off the bench for the Celtics and likely wins a couple more of these.
  9. I thought the team did pretty well when they sent Green to the bench and brought in Jabari. Eason was also pretty good in his limited time. I don't think this team can afford to have Fred and Green on the floor together when they both are doing horrendously all game.
  10. "Jokic hitting the eject button!" lol even the announcers aren't buying that flop.
  11. MPJ got pancaked on the floor during that loose ball scrum. I didn't know you could just jump on a guy while he's on the floor lol.
  12. Ohhhhh nooooooooooooo Gordon!! Missing a huge momentum shifting dunk of the back of the rim...
  13. Westbrook is having a good game, Jokic just got a triple double. Tie game with 4 minutes to go. Good series so far.
  14. Prime Lebron vs Prime Jordan would be a hell of a fight, but I think Lebron would come out on top due to size advantage.
  15. I also forgot about that, and now I really want Denver to win this series.
  16. Brunson gets away with a ton of contact on defense, yet is getting all sorts of calls of soft contact on offense. Tough to watch garbage calls like that. Also he kinda looks like Elle from Last of Us.
  17. Not looking great for Detroit. Knicks have all the momentum, and the Pistons offense doesn't forgot how to shoot. Still gonna be close, but they gotta get it together.
  18. Lol what a dumb challenge...
  19. Nice behind the back and into a dunk on a fast break by Cade. Pistons up by 13 in the 3rd.
  20. Yeah, I don't think it's happening tonight. 4-25 from 3 is abysmal (fred is 1-10 lol). The fact that it's not a 20+ point loss is surprising, but they got some fight in them to still win this series.
