  1. Last time I went to DQ I was shocked at how expensive it was.
  2. Nah I don't think so. He had already been retired for a few years - and Kobe was such a magnanimous individual and a statesman of the game that him being alive and telling stories would have elevated his status just as much imo. It's not like he died in 2011.
  3. I am extremely comfortable in my assessment of both of these players. You make a good contribution, though - it's a fun debate and like I have already said multiple times Kawhi was a beast. (I'd take peak Durant over both of them)
  4. Seems to me he escalated the situation when he stabbed another another teenager to death.
  5. 19th post on my reddit feed tonight in case anyone is crying that this isn't getting covered. And most comments are centered around the murderer being a piece of shit that needs to be locked up.
  6. I don't think that's what he's asking. I get where Derka is coming from - peak Kawhi was a monster. I just don't think that the absolute best version of Kobe doesn't win the same playoff series that Kawhi did. And for every series Kawhi won Kobe won two (at least).
  7. I'm happy to take action on HOU advancing past the conference semis. By the way - I think they're a solid team with a lot of promise. I just don't see it happening this year.
  8. I watch some WNBA but this is like two tiers below that. And that's being kind.
  9. I don't doubt he could win that tile at all at the same age as Kawhi. That was a nice run from Kawhi but it wasn't some Herculean title. That Raptors team was deep as shit and GS injured themselves out of the Finals. That was the year Kobe put up 35.4 per game. Adjust that just using the league ppg average and that would be over 39 ppg in 2019. Yeah I think that dude could take Toronto all the way 🤷
  10. So much for this one. We'll see if SCAR can hand them an L.
  11. I will say - Betts is easily the best player in the country. Shame her teammates are peeing their britches.
  12. UCLA is getting fucking killed. Terrible gameplan and decision-making so far.
  13. Pedro Pascal's "hey I'm officially out of the closet" airpods ad is a fucking beating.
  14. I'm sure they deserve whatever they get. Why would you even buy that and think it would be good?
  15. Anyone watching UCLA/UCONN? Frenetic pace to start. Think the bruins need to slow it down a bit.
  16. I don't know what Holle has to do with it - Rori is twice the player she is. It isn't easy to just go upgrade at point and tell your locker-room leader to take a hike. A lot easier to bring her back and upgrade around her.
  17. I'm gonna watch the next one - y'all want to keep it rolling in here?
  18. She was being asked to do too much on O. She has a decent mid range and I think could be a decent shooter from 3 going into next year. Most importantly - the moment is never too big for her and she plays her ass of and is a leader.
  19. You have zero playoff experience and Jalen Green is your best shotmaker. I think Houston can win a round but they aren't making the conference Finals. Too many dogs in that bracket.
  20. Yeah she wasn't good tonight outside of the first few buckets she made. Her jumper was completely broken once we went down big. Like I said - she has a little soul-searching to do this offseason. I trust her to figure it out, she's a badass player.
  21. Nah man I'm taking Rori back 100 times out of 100 if she wants to run it again. Need to upgrade elsewhere.
  22. Lol. Rori wasn't the problem with this team.
  23. I mean he's watching his team get their asses kicked...
  24. Booker needs to mature a lot going into next season. Phenomenal talent but pretty erratic mentally these last two games. Some of that comes with age but not all of it - some counsel or a change in approach might help. Did they just say Rori has a season left? She should come back - she isn't a W player.
  25. I appreciate Shay Holle's contributions to the program but Texas needs better players than her moving forward. She doesn't even pretend to be a scoring threat in games like this.
