  1. I am intentionally conflating them because they are the same fucking thing. Of course it matters. Why is it illegal?
  2. I feel the same about this as I do about sign stealing in baseball or any sport. It makes no sense for this to be illegal. One team can communicate with secret signals but the other team can't try to figure out the system? So stupid. You can watch hours and hours of video of players from dozens of angles but you can't watch the coaches? So stupid.
  3. That's really nice. Don't go all Marinovich on him but keep him running. XC scholarships are out there and you don't have to be an olympian to get them.
  4. I stand by it. Are you telling me that game on the line, crunch time, you are sitting there nonplussed b/c you know James is about to win the game for his team? Has it happened? Sure. Is it SOP for his teams? Absolutely not, and moreover, never has been.
  5. Lebron's greatness is real, but his "dominance" is not. I've never seen Lebron single-handedly take over and win a game the way MJ did on the regular. I don't think KD takes that Cavs team to the finals, but he might have won more in Miami than Lebron did.
  6. 100% a foul. 100% dumb not to have called timeout to advance. 100% dumb for KD to have the ball away from his body in that situation. 100% meaningless early season game that no one gives two shits about other than as a chance to see Wemby develop.
  7. I would love to see the case for who was worse. Trump alienated allies, reduced global influence, mishandled a public health crisis, actively strove to divide the citizenry, and, yeah, attempted a coup in the laziest most slap dash way possible.
  8. You mean there's no possible way they could still trade for Kyrie?
  9. What's the over/under line for nut shots by the warriors with that dynamic duo of CP3 and DG23?
  10. There are a lot of videos on YouTube compiling Larry Bird trash talking stories. One was him bullying some rookie guarding him. Larry pulled up from half court in the middle of the game. He told the rookie "bet you can't do this" and air balled by a lot. The rookie was like "I can definitely do that." Bird says "no, I'm staying in the game." Even Bird would get pulled for that shit Jordan Poole did
  11. False. Donald Trump has never won a popular vote. In a two candidate race a plurality cannot exist except when also being an outright majority (considering only active voters not eligible voters who may not have participated).
  12. Uwe blab (going from memory on the spelling)
  13. The "maybe" was shorthand for explaining this would apply only in the case where she thought her baby would have been the greatest if only the coaches in his way hadn't favored other players and the refs always treated him worse than the other players otherwise he would have made MJ look like a joke. I don't know his momma so I have no idea if this was her attitude or not, though it is a common attitude among sports mommas.
  14. That is certainly a take. Not one shared by anyone else in the world besides maybe Big Shot's mom, but definitely a take.
  15. Man, fuck that. How dare they wear Oilers shit.
  16. 26 points on 11 shots in 29 minutes in a game where Eric Gordon might have been the second best player on the team. That's very impressive.
  17. So what exactly do you think that data tells you? It tells me that the bad doctors get held to account. That's quite different than saying all doctors subject to lawsuits are bad doctors. It's also kind of weird to blame doctors for lobbying in their interests while it was ultimately the legislature that had to enact that rule.
  18. WTF are you talking about? Bad doctors get handled with prejudice, as they should. That whole doctor death podcast deal highlighted that basically it was hospital administrators ignoring the other doctors that let him continue his crimes. Once they actually accepted the concerns of the other doctors he went into the criminal justice system and was punished to the full extent allowed but law.
  19. Watching the two PHX games I'm struck by how awful Grayson Allen looks. I never expected him to be a great or even good pro, but he's terrible. Whatever athleticism he had seems to have evaporated. He's got lead in his shoes, totally unable to stay in front of anyone. He's not a "smart heady player from Duke" either. He's constantly lost on defense. He's not a good enough shooter to make up for these deficiencies. I guess at least he hasn't tripped KD yet.
