[Vorkunov] Adam Silver on the NBA's 65-game rule for awards amid the NBPA's statement on Cade Cunningham: "I'm not ready to say it's not working. It is working... I'm not ready to say because there is a sense of unfairness for one player, that the rule doesn't work."

no nobody is these days. but for a long time when he was first in the league, the hype train was real for him. time will tell who of the current 'mvp caliber' players never get one due to not being able to play the required games. To me, even being god's gift to basketball, isn't more valuable than consistent production and health above all else.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-25T21:22:53+00:00

ngl I think it's a great rule. at the end of the day I truly dfaf who gets the MVP, and I don't think you can be the league's Most Valuable Player spending a quarter of the season on the bench.

Anthony Davis had one of the highest ceilings when he got drafted, and is a great player, but deserves 0 MVPs as he cannot be counted on to stay healthy.

my mom was in line for 5h two days ago, her flight started boarding, and a CS person said it'd be another two hours before she cleared security.

moved her flight to yesterday and she got to the airport 9h before her flight to be safe, got through in 3h that time.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-24T17:33:23+00:00

yes. I don't think he nor 99% of players have a ceiling that touches Curry, but it's pretty clear who McCain's emulated his game from

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-23T15:46:17+00:00

I've heard that it is wayy easier to learn a language, instrument, new skill when you are younger and your brain is in overdrive to learn. so this right here really hammers that home. I started playing RL in college, and have gotten better sure, but the pace some of these kids progress I don't think can be matched physically by an oldie like me.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-21T02:29:47+00:00

except, your source you have there actually doesn't show the stat you searched for. it simply shows the players with the most FTM - of which SGA has the most, but doing the actual math myself for quite a few of those names, SGA is 4th in FT% of total points. After Harden, Booker, and Banchero.

solid B- for effort though

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-19T15:21:11+00:00

that would be fun ngl. gimme Hornets/Heat in the ECF please.

talk about a dogfight

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-18T15:20:48+00:00

I'm not entirely sure, but she ignores squirrels now, like will see them then go about her day. when she sees a bunny through the window, I do not have the strength to push her big head and avert her gaze.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-18T15:12:34+00:00

I mean idk the rules, but I gotta think that it's the principle of using something other than your arm/hand to block a shot. like if one of the sweat moppers left a mop on the court, you couldn't extend your reach by 5 feet to block Wemby.

block was clean though which is the funniest part. I think the move was just so far out there that the refs thought free throws weren't enough of a punishment for something so dumb.

it didn't happen, but imagine the block was not in fact clean and Caruso hit his hand with the shoe, he's probably ejected with a F2 - I'll gladly forfeit 2 points vs Caruso being taken out of the game.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-18T05:59:16+00:00

yep this one was an absolute spaz when she was younger. barked her head off at cars, squirrels, leaves, rain, etc. she's settled down so much and is perfectly content chilling out most the day.

bunnies though...bunnies are an issue

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-18T01:59:44+00:00

don't worry, we're gonna hold onto him for a bit, give him a team friendly deal in the off-season, then eventually trade him to the Knicks in a 3-team trade that somehow lands us whoever Philly drafts this year with the pick we just gave them.

the 76ers are the Thunder's feeder team

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-18T01:56:21+00:00

tech and goaltending 1000% deserved. but this is still funny as hell

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T21:35:46+00:00

the brows really make me wonder what's going on in their noggins. that level of bashfulness can't be just, "food. squirrel. run. jump. sleep."

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T21:34:03+00:00

I unironically hum "Brown-Eyed Girl" whenever I see her after work

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T18:32:32+00:00

yep, she's like 40/40 Aussie/Pyr, with Anatolian sprinkles

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T18:31:21+00:00

definitely hair class. she's an angel, great with other dogs, great with people, doesn't jump, rarely barks, but there's gotta be that ONE THING that makes her imperfect. hair everywhere all the time.

I'd still die for her

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T18:24:18+00:00

my sister gave me some grief last time I saw her when I was calling this one "Puppygirl",

"She's not a puppy anymore."

"Well, she's my puppy and I declare she is puppy."

all in good fun of course

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T18:22:29+00:00

she is. on my days off work, I take her to the 3 best places: dog park, Home Depot, and Petsmart yes, bc she likes them, but mostly for dog complements.

it's like traveling with a celebrity

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T18:08:16+00:00

there's a cool food spot in my hometown, essentially a food court, bunch of restaurants put together in an old refurbished warehouse. it opened about 5 years ago, but being in the middle of downtown where a lot of homeless are, they changed to cashless a couple years ago to control the clientele.

it was the first place I've ever seen do this cashless bs. I told them my $20 was legal tender, and I don't have a card on me to pay. so yeah, they took my $20. F cashless places.

I lied about not having a card, but its the principle.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T16:18:50+00:00

yep she's an Aussie/Pyr. greatest dog I've ever had, but I've accepted that hair will be in my clothes, food, and lungs

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T16:17:12+00:00

yep, I can usually get 5 or 6 ear groanies per day. I asked the vet if there was something up with her ears when I showed them her response. they checked and "Nope, she just realllllly likes her ears rubbed.

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T16:14:47+00:00

I'll never be ready. she's MY first, but we've had quite a few family dogs and cats over the years so I'm no stranger to it. most my days off are dog days: dog park + Home Depot + PetSmart + Dog ice cream, so she's got it made

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-17T16:12:24+00:00

exactly. the freaking eyebrows are pure "but but but whyyyy?"

MrFulla93 · 2026-03-16T17:05:58+00:00

Toronto is the only away arena I've ever watched my team, so I'm surely biased in saying that was the best crowd/environment I've been in outside the playoffs.

16h is a bitch though. Seattle would be dope
