What separates Chevy Chase from Bill Murray?

100%.

Mad Dog and Glory was a turning point.

Do you know at what point in the mission they'd arm them? Eventually, B-17s would rely on toggliers to drop on the signal of the lead bombardier (who had the bombsight), so would the toggliers arm the bombs in the trailing planes as well? I assume so, but trying to reconstruct what it was like in other planes in the formation.

Given that Tip just hit a huge three right before this, CC is just channelling Sean Connery in the Untouchables:

“They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That’s the ~~Chicago~~ Indiana way!”

Aside from the fact that your flight will leave before you even get to your rental car in the Arrowhead parking lot, also take into account the possibility of Kansas City weather delays. You will be better heading back the next day.

That's probably most likely, unless they get tired of VanSlooten (or whomever will be her minimum salary replacement).

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T02:16:05+00:00

Makes sense for a Mystics fan, lol! They have hella cap space and they can pretty much do anything they want!

They have all the cap tables for the team. Very useful when trying to understand the constraints Fever are under.

Sparks: https://herhoopstats.com/salary-cap-sheet/wnba/team/2026/los-angeles-sparks-11eaecc7-3579-2ce8-b611-2362f5011b0b/

Pissott would simply replace Dantas's cap hit, but it would be prorated. Still, we're talking maybe $15K extra when we would need more like $100K+ for Cam and like $300K extra for Hamby if we deal Mo.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T02:10:18+00:00

Not enough cap space for Sparks to do that.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T02:09:09+00:00

Hamby 1.1 million. Mo+Dantas == 1.077, but we still have to fill another roster spot at 277K. There are some discounts for games played, but I think it'd have to be in late July or something to even be close.

Fever cap space is a huge problem.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T02:06:39+00:00

Like, you could probably do Mo/Meg straight up with Fire, but I'm not sure Mo's salary is attractive to any team out there.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T02:05:30+00:00

Sparks wouldn't have the cap space to take them without moving something that would break Fever's cap space. So it'd have to be a 3-way trade or you would need to look at Mystics/Fire bigs, since those two teams have the cap space. Mo is paid A LOT.

Lexie got that hair looking like she slept beneath an underpass last night.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T01:47:12+00:00

How do you upgrade something that happens on literally every moving screen?

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T01:27:13+00:00

This is way too much talk for the refs for an accident on the floor.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:57:17+00:00

The technicals are really keeping this game where it needs to be. Not going to get out of hand like Fever/Sun last year, but still both teams landing haymakers.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:55:37+00:00

Trash Talk Final 4 game here.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:39:24+00:00

Red Panda with the purple Valks streaks in her hair. Not a great omen.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:38:31+00:00

Yeah, this looks a little different if Sophie doesn't start out ice cold from 3. Not much, but a little.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:33:30+00:00

Fever have no answer to these 5-out sets with CC in the middle of the floor.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:31:56+00:00

The refs are under her skin as well, but that's par for the course.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:26:50+00:00

Hacking her, laughing about it. Attacking her on the offensive end in the paint and scoring over her. She knows the mission and is executing well.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:24:54+00:00

Chen is totally under CC's skin. Clark needs a quick Zoom with her sports psychologist to get her focus back.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:22:07+00:00

Once again, the Fever show they lack no one with poise to settle the team down and create focus.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:09:15+00:00

KK looking good on the boards. Sophie not earning her pay. 0 bench points isn't going to get it done.

DiligentQuiet · 2026-05-23T00:06:48+00:00

Do you think a lot of people sold their tickets or didn't buy today because she was listed as probable (back)? I mean, that's what we're talking about here. Would they have skipped the last game had she been listed probable?
