  1. LeBron bitches about the call, doesn’t get back on D. Never change.
  2. Gotta take it to the rim on every possession. The Lakers don’t have anybody that can block a shot other than LeBron.
  3. I think the national guys need to slow down the Lakers postseason hype train. LeBron basically has to do everything at the rim on defense + initiate the offense when Luka wants to take a 20 minute break. This is not a sustainable model for a 40 year old in. 7 game series.
  4. JJ can coach. To get us completely out of our offense with dogshit defenders like Luka and Reaves is pretty impressive.
  5. And he can’t shoot… again. 2022 could be an outlier.
  6. The Ringer’s NBA guy is for some reason based in Memphis. He said on Simmons’ show today it was performance based. Memphis hasn’t been playing well for a long time/they were concerned everybody perceived them as an easy out in the playoffs.
  7. Sure, but they’d have to get another team involved to send back salary to the Suns. As long as we have a first round pick/swap every year, I’m cool with it. Green + picks for Booker would be a mistake. Booker would take at least a season to learn how to play defense again. And as others have pointed out, he’ll turn 29 in October.
  8. Heat 2 is a terrific book. The Chicago stuff is awesome. That said, I agree with Joad and md, it would cost a fortune to adapt correctly. It might make sense to break into 2 parts, the prequel and sequel. Hopefully WB sells it to Netflix so it actually gets made.
  9. This. They used Mikey as a dumb adolescent girl in every sketch. She just won an Oscar, obviously she has more range than that. I think Sweeney did so well because the writers made every joke about her breasts and she played along. Mikey, while attractive, doesn’t have a singular physical trait they can build sketches around. These writers are very, very simple. Every young male host is 90 minutes of how hot he is and the female cast members fawning over him. There’s some pearl clutching conspiracy bullshit about Wallen walking off stage abruptly during the credits. Non issue to me, but you never know with Lorne. Based on his social media, Wallen had a plane to catch. I believe he’s working on his sobriety, so he likely wanted no part of the SNL after party.
  10. After reading about people lining up on 290 at 3am for Garrison Bros distillery releases, I came up with a solution to most of our problems: Stop by the distillery or store and pick up your raffle ticket. The distillery/store holds a drawing online. If your number is picked, they set up an appointment for you to pick up your bottle. No crazy lines. No camp out bullshit. Just a logical system.
  11. Next week is the series finale right? Everything online indicates 7 episodes. I predict a bad ass shoot out in the Livingston where Bronn dies. Timothy Dalton’s submissive escapes, and he bails to avoid a trial/public shame. Final scene will be Alex and Spence reuniting in the snow, Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren crack wise, roll credits.
  12. Rockport was the best back in the day. Great food. Wasn’t crowded. Good fishing. Water usually looked OK. You could spend all night watching people spotlight/ spear fish flounder. That said, I’d drive to Gulf Shores befor starting the beach town discussion.

  14. Other than when staring at a coworker’s wife’s ass, does Ime ever smile? I love it. The guy has zero chill. He has 100% fought players at practice.
  15. Did y’all see Wind River? It’s Sheridan’s masterpiece and it’s bleak as hell. The frozen Chicago road trip was deeply regarded. The gas station attendant clearly told them there were no more gas stations between them and their destination. I’d say that’s a fairly stringent warning in 1923. The new 50 Shades of Timothy Dalton blonde has a pretty nice ass for her build. TS knows how to spot ‘em. Strong Harrison Ford episode. He still has his fastball. May God forgive Kathleen Kennedy for putting him in bad movies in his twilight years. Aynsley’s kid has to be John Dutton II right? Jack, I assume John I, just died. It makes me wonder what happens to Spencer and Alex’s kid.
  16. I assume the Rockets would have to send FVV back to match salary on Durant plus give the Suns all their picks back. I think FVV is very limited, but this team falls apart without him. This is awful, and the writer should be imprisoned. https://www.si.com/nba/rockets/news/14-player-4-team-trade-proposal-sends-kevin-durant-houston-rockets
  17. He’d average like 25 a game on a bad team. I think that’s his lot in life. He’ll force his way out and score like crazy on a lottery team. I just hope we have a Tre Johnson type to replace him on the roster.
  18. The Suns had this coming after the white cowboy hat giveaway.
  19. Bullshit. That unprepared son of bitch found out at like 425.
  20. Anybody familiar with the Suns ownership/front office? Not shutting down their only trade chip, Durant, is some wild shit.
  21. The Locked On podcasters suggested changing all of Jalen’s calendars to be stuck in March for eternity. I’m here for it.
  22. Next year they control their picks? My dream scenario is the Rockets taking Tre or Fears in the lottery.
  23. Olin and Brauny should be fun tomorrow. The Kentucky series was their last chance to get right. I expect the spin to shift to blaming Schloss/the team is learning under a new coach/wait til next year.
  24. The Suns shittiness is rubbing off on Booker. He needs to GTFO. He pulled for a 3 on the break, decided against it, and made a shitty pass that resulted in a Rockets dunk.
