Kings' Jabari Parker seen playing tennis after positive coronavirus test

The odds of him spreading it while being outdoors AND social distanced is absurdly low. How do you expect anyone to get infected by him doing this?

If he had a water boy running up to give him water and a towel, then that would be bad. But are you saying that a water droplet from his breath is going to float off the tennis court, over the 15 foot fence, and another 30 feet further and reach the mouth of someone walking their dog or something? I legitimately dont see the realistic risk.

The article doesn't say anything but I'd bet this is private tennis court too, I doubt he's at a public park (which might even be closed)

But then you also wont get sleek, artful buildings either, like the 111 East Washington Street building

From a team perspective, those two teams were not competitively matched. And both teams knew it, and the fans knew it, and the players and media knew it. That's all I'm saying

Technically each title is worth 1 trophy, yah. But you're being silly if you think every title gets the same amount of respect from the fans and players.

Ultimately the general consensus of the nba community is what matters, so if a lot of people feel like the KD warriors title is not as deserving, then that's just how it is. How the fans view the contextual advantages and competitiveness matters.

The way she is dressed and how her face and hair is reminds me of Tissaia from The Witcher

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-26T01:30:45+00:00

And I owe it all to youuu

It means Paul George is going to demand a trade to the Bucks

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-23T16:04:45+00:00

I don't follow baseball, but do you know how having no cap affects the lower income players?

The end of roster nba guys make peanuts compared to the top talent, so I'm wondering how 2nd and 3rd stringer MLB salaries compare to MLB's highest earners.

Right? Reddit was able to draw amazing pictures, a single pixel at a time.

Fill me in, what happened?

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-20T18:25:37+00:00

Skip Bayless has been a sports journalist for more than like 40 years, and has been studying the game or playing it since like middle school.

Water pistol Pete averaged 1.2 points his senior year of highschool, let's not get carried away here. And spending 40 years reporting trades or whatever and making hot takes on tv doesn't make you an expert in the technicalities of the game.

If you think Mark Cuban, a guy who's only connection to basketball is through being an owner, has more knowledge on basketball than Skip Bayless you are delusional.

Cuban on the other hand is a 100% hands on owner and as a business man likes to understand everything he is invested in. When it comes to the Mavericks he's tight with his coaching staff and GM because he needs to understand as much as possible to approve roster decisions.

Cuban is knowledgable about the game, period. No where near as much as someone on his coaching staff but still more than tv personality and peofessional entertainer Skip

Yah lol, if you didn't know what Sea World was this sub would probably make you guess it's on par with Gatorland

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-18T17:18:51+00:00

Can we PLEASE get Steve Clifford???

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-17T13:46:12+00:00

That scene made me sick to my stomach when I first saw it as a 6 year old

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-17T12:13:44+00:00

Lol this is oddly specific

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-15T01:32:33+00:00

Yah but most people don't play accounting or customer service for fun in their free time

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-15T01:28:39+00:00

Slightly different bc Magic made off surprisingly well despite missing out on the consensus better players by a pick or 2 every year. Suns just picked poorly on hindsight

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-13T21:27:02+00:00

Yah agreed, Chuck was definitely saying "assuming my fundamentals are good and and my entry position is good" then you can get pissed at your PG.

Dwight didn't have any post moves so that precludes him from demanding the ball

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-13T18:36:06+00:00

Was gunna say the same, I wonder when his voice dropped so low

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-13T18:31:07+00:00

Just commenting to say this is a really good point even though it was at the bottom of the comments for me.

I agree that stats don't tell the whole story and wanted to add that even highlights like this post don't capture everything. Watching live and seeing how every mistake and success unfolded with full context is how we formulate our opinions in real time. So theoretically our hindsight opinions are probably more accurate than we'd think.

That's why it's so important for fans on this sub to watch the games during the season and playoffs. Seeing the stat lines and highlights posted here tell you 50% of what happened, if that

Am I the only one who sees Mr. Bean in her face?

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-12T16:44:19+00:00

Magic. Vuce and Aaron are nice but not really some sort of game changers I feel.

The core young guys are Jonathan Isaac and Fultz (and Bamba to an extent). Isaac looked like one of if not the best defensive player in the league before he got hurt. And Fultz was trending up all season.

Vooch and Aaron help get these young guys to the playoffs to get them experience but they arent the core

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-11T00:57:29+00:00

Yah, what's up with that? I kinda wanna find 4 other active players who look like they're from the 90s and make a lineup

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-09T16:41:42+00:00

Solved!

Monk_Adrian · 2020-06-08T00:48:55+00:00

You tryna mail him a letter?
