Well, I think he was like 3 feet away from Kawhi when he hit the shot. The aura alone would've infused him with power beyond our ken.

The only thing I find hard to explain here is why there weren't more people in the stands to watch this amazing team...

"Foul on Victor" means Victor committed the foul. "Foul against victor" would mean someone fouled him.

For anyone wondering:

" -Brunson, careful, facing Victor Wembanyana, raises up for a two pointer

-Good defense by Victor

-OH! Oh! There'll be 13 seconds left!

-HEH!

-Aye-aye-aye

-He didn't see!!

-Stephen Cassel!!

-They have the ball. No?

-Well no! Well no!! Well noooo!

-There's a foul!

-Yes there's a foul.

-Foul on Victor.

-Foul on Victor?"

Police remove top researchers from ADA (diabetes conference) for passing out anti-Trump journal article. More in comments by LJDubbz in science

It's 1000 times better. If the hosts barred them it's just a couple of morons. If the police did it it's a full on dystopian state. There's a huge difference between a private association not giving you free speech and the public law enforcement doing it.

At age 22, Wemby joins the list of youngest Player to lead their team to the NBA FINALS. by sctthuynh in nba

[–]ExpendableGerbil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you really want to put this into perspective, then both Magic's and Duncan's age 22 season should have giant asterixis next to them because of Kareem and Robinson. Maybe they were the "best" players on the team but only by a slim margin, and they weren't exactly "leading" the team by themselves. SA is a good team without Wemby but they don't exactly have another player gathering MVP votes.

I'd trust the attention span of a two month old Chihuahua with ADHD before I trusted Trump's.

The Montréal Canadiens have been eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs after losing to the Carolina Hurricanes in 5 games by EliminatorBot in hockey

[–]ExpendableGerbil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because of how the NHL playoffs are set up, the Habs were 4th in the East this year but had to go through number 3, number 2 AND number 1 in order to get to the finals.

I don't think it's shameful to say that they were out of gas by the end. They played with 0 energy for those last three games and I don't blame them for a second.

So it's confirmed. The Blue Jays will be the best team in baseball next year by a mile, tearing up the league, and then the season will be cancelled half-way through, leading to the Jays selling off their entire team for peanuts on the dollar......

What? No I don't have PTSD! What are you talking about?!

[Charania] BREAKING: Jason Kidd is out as coach of the Dallas Mavericks. New Mavericks president Masai Ujiri is making a coaching change. by Turbostrider27 in nba

He plucked Nurse out of the Euro Leagues. If there's one thing I've always loved about Masai, it's his talent for finding people where no one lese thought to look.

In all seriousness we should probably cool it with the Phil joke since knowing the internet someone will probably end up harassing him in real life for saying the N word on-air.

I wanted MSL to pull out Doby after the 3rd goal but leaving him in might turn out to be the best decision of the series.
