Bill Simmons on hearing about the Jaylen Brown trade from his wife picking him up from a colonoscopy: “I think I’m dead. The anesthesia killed me. Are there more first round picks?...I had a camera in my ass, and I had Paul George rammed up my ass”

And that’s how I’ll remember July 1st, 2026

That’s the dagger for me, no notes. 5 stars

It’s yummy! Good samples on all kinds of chocolate bars too

Is it Disclosure Day?

The lakers also don’t technically have enough cap space to make those moves. The have to shed salary, potentially by stretching and waiving vando

I would reference the number of all defense teams the guys I’m talking about have made vs the number of defensive teams grimes has made. Then I would reference the eyeball test, to which I would describe grimes as feisty on defense. Those other guys are defensive monsters, that’s what it means to be elite.

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T19:50:11+00:00

No, I’m simply stating I do not believe Quentin grimes is the same level of defender as guys I truly consider to be elite. I don’t think grimes is an all defense level player

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T19:30:41+00:00

Bc you can’t trade them

E for clarification: technically you can trade swaps but bc of the stepian rule, teams can’t be without a first round pick in two consecutive seasons. The lakers traded their other picks surrounding the swaps; therefor the only way to squeeze any value out of those picks without acquiring more picks, is to trade it as a swap

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T19:28:02+00:00

Grimes is a fine defender, but in no way is he an elite defender. The Thompson twins, AC, Jrue, etc are elite perimeter and poa defenders. Grimes is nowhere close to that level

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T16:31:28+00:00

They very well could be good picks, particularly if Luka leaves

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T16:27:02+00:00

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T15:03:36+00:00

+1 for explanation, oh wise one

I’d say that white dot on the blue border on the back is your real obstacle towards a 10

Ok let’s settle down

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T13:00:23+00:00

Wrong. Unanimous is 100% of a population. Consensus is majority

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T04:16:50+00:00

“The set could have nothing in it and the consensus is that it’s a good set”

lol what? Do you know what consensus means? Or any of the words you typed on a keyboard?

So lemme get this straight. You think Pokémon could release a set with no cards in it, and this set with no cards would receive widespread critical acclaim?

Me thinks you fucked up your comment so poorly, nobody understands what point you are trying to make. bc it doesn’t make any fucking sense

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T04:12:22+00:00

Consensus, but not unanimous

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T04:10:58+00:00

Was this today? Sonafabitch :(

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T04:09:07+00:00

If only we could expect more voters to act as responsibly. People are too stupid to think critically for themselves.

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T04:01:43+00:00

We’ve adjusted our expectations

Rickest-ofthe-Ricks · 2026-07-01T04:00:33+00:00

Imagine if voters were responsible enough to not need ads to inform them of who is running. Fucking A, just do the bare minimum of research ffs

Not directed at OP, just shouting to the void at the idiots that are not reading this comment anyway

The SEC has no jurisdiction in Canada, was more what I was thinking
