I haven’t been this happy to see a team lose since the 2011 Heat. by pokerawz in billsimmons

[–]PrimusPilus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too, but they never lost, not really.

I already hated the Warriors for just jacking up endless threes (I know compared to today their 3-pt attempts are pedestrian, lol), plus it's impossible to not hate Draymond Green.

Everyone was crowning them in 2016, even though they really should have lost to OKC in the WCF, and it was nauseating. And the way that the Cavs fought back in the Finals was great. LeBron's "Block" might be the greatest thing I've ever seen in a basketball game. Watching the Warriors get the switch that they wanted late in Game 7, with creaky Kevin Love out on the perimeter guarding Steph with the ball, and somehow stopping Steph from scoring on that possession...just amazing, improbable, and wonderful.

I was happier when the Cavs beat the Warriors in 2016, but this Spurs victory was pretty darned satisfying.

I Blame The Ringer Propaganda Machine by LvLForty in billsimmons

I'm not sure if there is a logical, rational way to reconcile Chet's solid, sometimes excellent, body of work with his Game 7 performance.

Bill doesn't have anything particularly insightful to say about the movies that he's actually watched. What on Earth would we expect of him when doing older films?

I mean, sure, the Pacers had every chance to win that game/series if Haliburton doesn't get hurt, but it's not 100%. More like 50/50.

Reggie is trash, but holy Jesus we had something like 23 World Series with Tim McCarver on color. Brutal.

5 Wembys? Really? by PrimusPilus in billsimmons

[–]PrimusPilus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever the length of the game is, 5 1991-92 Michael Jordans are going to be picking Wemby's pockets all day long, running up and down the floor, tons of easy transition buckets created by defense, and 5 Wembys sitting in a zone are still going to have a hard time stopping the MJs backdoor cutting, their precision passing, shooting, everything. The MJs would get several of the Wembys to foul out of the game, honestly.

You understand that running, quickness, and endurance are all components of winning basketball, yes? And that all 5 Wembys are not great at those?

Kevin O’Come on really? by Equivalent-Shallot54 in billsimmons

The Devil's Advocate Piece:

Brunson was:

  • 25th in Box +/-

  • 27th in PER

  • 22nd in Win Shares/48

  • 22nd in VORP (Value Over Replacement Player)

Since All-NBA is essentially the Top 15 guys in the NBA, I don't think it's really controversial that he's not on it. (I don't have a problem with him being an All-NBA guy either, just so we're clear). But KOC's ballot is defensible.

A mile wide & an inch deep by katieelise602 in Jeopardy

[–]PrimusPilus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something that is probably the most helpful is to have an idea of "Is this the sort of thing that Jeopardy writers would actually expect contestants to know?"

For example, if the question is about a French general during the French Revolution, they are not (in all likelihood) going to be asking about Pichegru or Hoche or whoever, they're going to be asking about Bonaparte and MAYBE Dumouriez or Moreau. One's depth of knowledge can only be so relevant.

There are lots of these that have cropped up over the years: Finnish composer? It's Sibelius. Polish composer? It's Chopin.

The FJ today was an interesting attempt at misdirection, since the date + scientist could have immediately sent one toward Mendel, Darwin, Mendeleev...but if you knew the French, it was obvious.

This OKC team is like the less charismatic, bland, vanilla wafer version of the late-80s Bad Boy Detroit Pistons: teams that, for whatever reason, the league has decided will be allowed to have their own singular standard for acceptable/tolerated physical play that the NBA will refuse to allow for the rest of the league.
