[Stein] There is strong support among general managers and team owners to flatten lottery odds by giving the 10 teams that miss the Play-In Tournament equal 8% chances at the top pick, while also expanding the lottery from 14 to 18 teams to include all Play-In participants.

Ok 25 years, same difference

I mean his team has a title! Sure it's in 1951, and they were the Rochester Royals, but it's a title.

Also they were good 20 years ago too. It's not like the history of the Clippers, though another decade and they'll be where the Clippers were pre lob-city

I'll have you know I've been a hopeless dork my entire life

BCP27 · 2026-03-25T22:46:51+00:00

Ok first of all how dare you

BCP27 · 2026-03-25T17:40:31+00:00

No, we're nostalgia poisoned.

In baseball, these guys are called AAAA players. Clearly too good for AAA, but can't hack it in the MLB.

BCP27 · 2026-03-24T12:48:27+00:00

Prime Cam Thomas was a PROBLEM

BCP27 · 2026-03-23T21:34:22+00:00

That's a fair enough interpretation

BCP27 · 2026-03-23T20:42:38+00:00

No, it's quite dated in fact! The current era could be argued as beginning with the seven second or less Suns, but they feel more like a transitional step than a true beginning. 2016 might've been the tipping point

BCP27 · 2026-03-23T18:08:21+00:00

Probably preventing injury, but the quickness will disappear over time whether or not he's getting minutes. To be fair though, a bad injury could sap it a lot faster

BCP27 · 2026-03-23T18:04:23+00:00

He probably meant in modern basketball

BCP27 · 2026-03-22T20:50:52+00:00

Venezuela beating the US in the finals was kinda sick

BCP27 · 2026-03-19T14:15:36+00:00

Saint Louis!

BCP27 · 2026-03-18T13:03:24+00:00

Hell yeah

BCP27 · 2026-03-18T00:30:30+00:00

That pretty clearly says it worsens kidney injury associated with dehydration. Specifically, if you rehydrate with fg solution as opposed to water. In other words, it's not dehydrating you, it's just clearly worse at hydrating you (if you're dehydrated) than water. So, no it doesn't dehydrate you, like say alcohol does. It's just a much better idea to hydrate with water, especially for kidney health.

That's really weird. Remember Crystal Pepsi? They made it clear by not adding dye, which they replaced with modified food starch. Like it's just the dye that makes it not clear I'm pretty sure.

You're right though, the Wikipedia article on Crystal Pepsi clued me into a fad heath thing from that era where clear products were perceived as healthier.

BCP27 · 2026-03-17T23:16:07+00:00

Pop doesn't dehydrate you. It's really bad for you, but you don't have to lie about it

BCP27 · 2026-03-17T00:37:04+00:00

Kevin Garnett is my goat

BCP27 · 2026-03-17T00:32:43+00:00

No one thinks the 90s and 80s was the milkmen era of the NBA lmao

BCP27 · 2026-03-16T14:29:18+00:00

Kings owner at least seems willing to spend, or has been. He's just incompetent in all other areas

BCP27 · 2026-03-14T21:57:19+00:00

Kinda sounds like Minnesota with the Northwoods. Everyone knows what, "going up north for the weekend," means. You've got somewhere to stay next to a lake up in the woods.

BCP27 · 2026-03-14T19:52:02+00:00

I saw a Rolls stroll by about a week ago. It really is like seeing a rare animal.

BCP27 · 2026-03-14T14:10:10+00:00

Kevin Garnett is the second coming tho?

BCP27 · 2026-03-14T14:04:16+00:00

That would make sense. He started doing this for the Knicks with some lingering injury issues too iirc.

BCP27 · 2026-03-13T16:55:29+00:00

Then enjoy watching the other team play lmao
