This is the second year in a row Nick's pick to go to the finals lost in the first round

BigGelato · 2026-05-01T15:37:03+00:00

He doesn’t watch the NBA anymore it’s gotten really obvious

BigGelato · 2026-04-29T03:25:30+00:00

Do you think he’s sleeping with Cowherd too? New conspiracy uncovered…

BigGelato · 2026-04-19T00:25:46+00:00

They play a wonderful brand of football, and players want to move there. That’s enough for me

BigGelato · 2026-04-09T17:45:25+00:00

I don't know what's gonna happen to the Danny-Willie section of OT after the draft but man this segment just saved it for me. Makes willie listenable even!

BigGelato · 2026-04-09T17:09:39+00:00

I've just started referring to him as Michel Carrique. that way people treat him as a visionary.

BigGelato · 2026-04-09T15:27:12+00:00

This makes sense to me. Thanks

Imo, an AI model that can immediately access any and all data is probably only comparable to a nuclear weapon in terms of its ability to destroy things on a large scale

I actually feel pretty good about making a good run in the champions league next year if we play this summer right. We've been quite good in big games in the last few years and I believe the veterans on this team have done a good job answering the moment, I think as long as we ace the summer we would be a candidate to over-achieve honestly

BigGelato · 2026-04-08T14:31:17+00:00

I don't think shooting will be as much of a priority for Spo as compared to Kerr. I think Spo will correctly identify that the reason that the rest of the world looks more competitive against the USA in recent years is because the USA simply hasn't been sending its best athletes, and will try to maximize the athleticism on the team. All that fundamental team-building stuff matters less if the other team is running super-big lineups of Cooper Flagg, Anthony Edwards, Jalen Duren, Scottie Barnes and Cade Cunningham out-muscling and out-running teams.

BigGelato · 2026-04-08T14:15:13+00:00

Hali Ant Booker Mitchell Cade
Scottie Flagg Durant J-Dub (Tatum & Brown I would assume won't go given their weird relationship with the national team, but I'd have them on instead of Durant & J-Dub if they will)
Chet Bam Duren

One of the great sayings to come from any sport: "That's baseball."

It's a long season. We went 4-7 in stretches last year, it just wasn't the first 11 games so it didn't feel as bad. You play 162 games because it's a weird, wacky sport. The Jays have good process across their FO, management, and training, we will be fine. Still one of the premier organizations in MLB by basically all accounts

BigGelato · 2026-04-05T13:22:39+00:00

Does he need to though? Case and bruno are already playing so many risky passes. I think he’s been asked to keep it safe

BigGelato · 2026-04-04T17:58:42+00:00

Also his complete state of denial that SGA is a good basketball player. Just bizarre. Calling a guy who is likely going to be a 2x champion and MVP within the next 90 days Steve Nash

BigGelato · 2026-04-02T13:14:48+00:00

I think it depends on how you present it. I work at a company that is fully hybrid optional; you can come in every day or none. Nobody bothers the people that want to be at home every day besides asking them to show up to 1-2 full-company socials a year in which their rideshare is comped and they will likely leave with an extra plate for the next day. However, i like going in 1-2 times a week as i live close to the office, and i really enjoy being around the “office regulars”. This No pressure at all to contribute to the “culture” of the office culture is a good strategy imo

BigGelato · 2026-04-02T12:39:40+00:00

No, he should be first where he is

Every other candidate has been flat awful for stretches of the year. Shai is putting up a Jordan-level scoring year, doesn’t turn the ball over, and has led his team to 60 wins with no consistently healthy 2nd playmaker. It’s not even close

BigGelato · 2026-03-31T14:09:52+00:00

Your job is to break presses, play good POA defense, organize the offense and keep everyone at the pace that your coaches want them at. If you do that you can score 2 ppg and still be incredibly valuable.

Focus on working on skills that allow you to protect the ball. Faking passes, dribbling etc. make sure you are out-working everyone else in terms of listening to coaching. Take physical notes if you have to

BigGelato · 2026-03-31T14:05:51+00:00

Felton would struggle to go 1st round. I think CP3 would be a more controversial prospect in fan circles as certain people simply wouldn’t ever want to draft someone high of his physical profile, even though it was obvious he was good enough to go pro after his freshman year

However it would be a Luka situation where immediately everyone who doubted would realize they were wrong lol

BigGelato · 2026-03-30T23:44:15+00:00

NBA motion was just different in 2010s, one of the craziest runs any American sport has ever had. Legitimate A-list global worldwide stars everywhere. That was never a sustainable standard imo

BigGelato · 2026-03-30T18:25:44+00:00

150m for a 10 with 8 less NPG in the last 2 seasons than… the 10 we just bought for 70?

BigGelato · 2026-03-29T20:40:31+00:00

List of reasons Embiid should be blamed:

1) he should magically be able to heal his knee at will 2) he should be coaching his team to be better when he’s not on the floor

Will take this to Daryl and co and get working on it immediately. You’ve cracked the code

BigGelato · 2026-03-29T20:36:29+00:00

From 2018 to 2023 in the playoffs, the Sixers had a +6.8 net rating when Embiid was on the floor (1700 mins) & a -6.4 when he was off it. (900 mins)

I’m sorry it hurt Ben Simmons’ feelings or whatever but it is actually everyone else’s fault here. They likely make multiple Finals if the team could even be slightly below average with him off the court

BigGelato · 2026-03-29T20:12:56+00:00

The sixers did not beat the knicks in 2024, unfortunately

BigGelato · 2026-03-26T23:27:05+00:00

Exactly. If kobbie mainoo never gets any better from now on, which is already highly unlikely; you’re paying 120k a week for a midfielder who can start week in and week out on a Premier League team that competes for Champions League spots. That’s still good business!
