It's allegedly in fucking Elmendorf. The Captain Gus show was shot somewhere downtown. At least, when I was five years old and my folks dragged me down to be on it, I'm pretty sure it was somewhere downtown.

2025-26 Houston Rockets Thread - Back to Contention?

You're happy with your guy. The Spurs are definitely happy with their guy. Maybe it just worked out for the best? -
2025-26 Houston Rockets Thread - Back to Contention?
Mitch Cumsteen replied to BigOrange1's topic in Basketball
Sheppard's been playing great lately. Still wouldn't trade Castle for him in a million years. -
Yeah, I get every other local channel on my antenna except KSAT. I canceled YT and went to Fubo. I don't have to pirate the spurs games anymore as a huge bonuse. I'm not switching back.
-
I’m not discounting them. I said they’ll probably win 70 games for god’s sake. I just want to see them play some better competition. Lakers without Lebron. GS sat Horford for the back to back. They statistically have had the weakest schedule in the league so far.

San Antonio Spurs 2025-26 - Release the Kraken

Also I’m not one to bitch about the refs but I gotta hand it to the Warriors for taking 57 fucking threes and still getting to the line 30 times compared to the spurs only getting 12 FTs. Like, how does that work? -

Less about coaching and more about giving up 300 offensive rebounds. Bad loss. Let’s get em back on Friday in the cup game. -

It’s been bad tonight for sure. Everybody loves this fast breaking fiesta color bullshit. All it does is give me ptsd from when Tim Hardaway, Chris Mullin and Mitch Richmond beat our ass in the playoffs. Mario Elie took a blowtorch to us that series. -

Wemby sitting in the corner on offense like he’s Bruce fucking Bowen waiting for the ball to get swung to him isn’t really doing it for me. They don’t have anyone who could even pretend to check him in the paint. Get your 7’5” ass down by the basket. Jesus. This isn’t rocket surgery. -
And? This just in: games get out of hand and teams mail it in at garbage time, especially older ones. They’ve still played the easiest schedule in the league so far.

They've also had a dogshit schedule. They're great, don't get me wrong, and will probably win 70 games this year. And they definitely have the best roster in the league. But they've only beat two teams who are above .500 so far - Houston in 2OT opening night and Atlanta. I'd like to see them challenged a little bit more than dysfunctional Memphis and Sacramento. They have the Lakers coming up for whatever that's worth and the Wolves towards the end of the month. But they don't face Denver until February.

I don't think it's time to hit the panic button just yet. They're .500 and Curry and Horford have missed games. They lost Looney who was pretty much their only big worth a shit last year and a tremendous glue guy. Quentin Post and Trayce Jackson Davis (who has also missed some games this year) aren't exactly putting any fear into anyone. The big question with them has always been health and size. They haven't had a ton of either this year. Even at full strength, they are one of the smallest teams in the league. That Hartenstein/Chet combo was always going to be a bad matchup for them and now they get French Vanilla tonight. All I know is that I wouldn't want to face a fully healthy Warriors team in a playoff series. There are a ton of dudes on that roster with lots of playoff skins on the wall. They are just going to have to figure out how to bubble gum and band aid themselves into the playoffs. Utah, Memphis, NOLA, Sacramento and Dallas look like they are destined for the bottom. I don't thinking making the play in in the west is going to be as daunting as it originally seemed. But it's still way early....

25-26 Dallas Mavericks Thread: The Season of Our Discontent
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Bozo_Casanova's topic in Basketball
Uhhh... hate to tell you this, but Cuban absolutely tanked in that exact position so they wouldn't have to give up that pick to New York that turned into Lively. You don't think Cuban was on board for that? Even when the Mavs were at the end of the Dirk era before they got Luka, Cuban was quoted as saying that they were going to suck for a good while until they were able to find another star and build it back up. With regard to the path forward... I would not tear down to the studs. It doesn't make any sense to if you only control your own first round pick for next year. I have some news: this team is going to lose a shit load of games as long as Kyrie is out, just about no matter what else is done. It's a roster construction that was build around Luka, it makes no sense as is. So you can call it a tank, but it's really just a bad team in a tough conference. The Mavs are going to lose, and lose a lot. So, suck this year, hopefully get lucky again in the lottery, move some pieces around if you can get some value, then run it back next year with a healthy Kyrie, more experienced Flagg, maybe a healthy AD (lol), and some retooling around some of the role players. Depending on how Flagg develops, you can put together a pretty decent team going forward out of it. One more thing... I've been watching a few Mavs games (more than actual Mavs fans it seems) and it's annoying as fuck how your announcer constantly refers to Cooper Flagg as "Coop". Call him Cooper, fine. Call him Flagg, fine. But Coop sounds fucking stupid. Is your play by play guy an Aggie? -

This has been one of the craziest nights I’ve ever seen in the nba.
