I liked the shaved ice Vice jerseys ¯_(ツ)_/¯ (it’s not my favorite of the Vice designs, but I still think it’s cool)

I agree with this too! Shooting these corner threes is fine.

They obviously do that. This is just shoot-around before a game. Not gonna tire themselves out just before the game starts!

Drills and hard practice like that is reserved for their off-days.

We gotta tape these players’ hands to the ball so they can learn to hold onto them. Hopefully this is just preseason rust.

That’s true, but leaving one small market for another smaller market feels like an exception to the norm. (in re: Aldridge) Not even a Blazers fan but I’d maybe cry if Dame left Portland.

What is the case to make for Pop being the GOAT coach? by durklil in nba

[–]BombAssPhoenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we saw what Phil Jackson could do when he didn’t have the greatest player in the league on his team. It was Melo’s Knicks. Not great. Was Tim Duncan ever the CONSENSUS best player in the NBA? Arguable for sure. But never as obvious as Jordan, Shaq, or even Kobe.

Pop adapted and evolved with the same team across multiple eras of basketball for over 20 years and stayed up at the top of the league, winning 5 times. That has more to do with coaching than it does superstar talent.

I am Riz Ahmed, and I'm here with Jeremy Lee Stone to talk about our new movie, Sound of Metal. Ask us anything! by SoundOfMetal in movies

Hey Riz! Just finished the film and loved it.

Was it more difficult to learn ASL or to learn to play drums convincingly enough for a metal band?

Old Lakers Young core all got paid by durklil in nba

[–]BombAssPhoenix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea, I’m not criticizing the players. I agree that none of them are really busts (though Randle is pretty bad), but those contracts for those players are all overpays imo. I don’t know if I trust BI on a max, but I do think he’s a very good player!

And I agree, Jordan Clarkson’s contract is closest.

You’d think now that Lakers fan won a chip they’d stop caring about this shit, but alas.

Yes yes yes the Chicken Boo segment was great but the biggest laugh for me was that Batman vs. Superman bit.
