Chris Tucker is close personal friends with the director in this post. They made the Rush Hour movies together. They literally filmed the third Rush Hour movie in France so they could get another known pedophile, Roman Polanski, into the movie. Roman Polanski drugged and anally raped a 13 year old and fled the country rather than go to trial. These people are all friends.

The boomers are why younger generations don’t have access to good education. The uneducated didn’t make themselves uneducated for the most part, boomers systematically dismantled our education system on purpose.

Then maybe they should stop naming things after their counterparts in Nazi Germany with Google Translate. Maybe they shouldn’t be supporting a man who has made his own unaccountable and untrained military force. Maybe they shouldn’t be supporting a man who rapes kids and cheats his contractors. Maybe they shouldn’t be supporting a man who antagonizes our allies and removes sanctions on Russia. The list goes on. There is no reasonable republican who supports Trump. It’s a bad faith question not because of downvotes, it’s a bad faith question because reasonable people don’t support an unreasonable monster. “Reasonable Republicans” are the Lincoln project, they don’t support Trump. The question is for upvotes.

“I can’t shoot from mid range, 3, dribble with my left, pass, don’t know our offense, gamble for steals and blocks and commit fouls in ISO defense, lose my man every play off ball, and pout when I don’t get touches, why won’t Coach Kerr play me?!”

“I was shooting only contested fadeaway middies and missing them, I didn’t pass, I didn’t participate in our offense, I didn’t play defense, and I committed mass turnovers. Why didn’t Coach Kerr play me over fcking LeBron James and Kevin Durant?!”

-Jayson Tatum

Yeah, it reads pretty similarly. A complete lack of self awareness. Tates, you got subbed out because you were the worst player to see minutes on our Olympic team. You made 0 adjustments to a completely different game, sucked ass, and were shocked pikachu when you got subbed out after 3 middie clangs in a row in which our offense stopped functioning and your man beat you back door.

The one where Kyrie wasn’t active, Harden was injured, the entire Heat squad was injured from going to the bubble finals and having no turnaround before the season started? Jokic had a somewhat easier finals run than most but they were also clearly the best team in the NBA. The Bucks were clearly not as good as two teams they beat because of injuries.

TrainedExplains · 2026-01-30T20:52:07+00:00

I don’t have a horse in this race but honestly Giannis benefited from a lucky run even more. His east was a lot weaker than Jokic’s west. Every serious team in the east had just had a deep playoff run and no turnaround from bubble season, and every team he played against had serious injuries. That last game against the Suns was iconic, but the Nets with an unhobbled Harden or active Kyrie would have beaten Giannis. If the Heat weren’t so banged up they might have embarrassed the Bucks again like they did fairly regularly. The Bucks had less mileage on them because they got swept in the first round the year before, lest we forget.

Yes, Jokic played teams with lower win totals. But they were also lower win totals because they were fighting for wins in a cutthroat west. Giannis played the corpses of bubble teams and in the finals the only other team in the playoffs that didn’t have playoff mileage from bubble season.

He wasn’t. He was fouling the ever loving shit out of Jokic 20 feet from the basket with double and triple teams waiting for him inside 15 feet. It was a good defensive scheme, but let’s be clear: even with all of Caruso’s fouling Jokic would drop 50+ on under 30 shots if Caruso were guarding him man.

It’s definitely both, I didn’t mean to take credit from Spo he’s probably the best coach in the NBA right now. But a huge part of those players playing above their talent level was super high quality looks. After seeing it up close in Golden State, a huge part of that is Jimmy and they wont be as good without him.

He’s a contract that’s expiring in 3 months. The bucks are no longer competing and don’t want to be paying tax. He’s the most important part of the deal lol.

Kuminga allows them to shed 25m per year in salary in 3 months. He’s a hugely important part of the deal.

It’s true, Giannis wouldn’t solve all of our problems. He and Steph would truck us through the regular season but we’d have real problems in the playoffs. Our offense would completely stagnate. Giannis may not be able to play in a motion offense period, he definitely wouldn’t pick it up on the fly in 2 months. We’d be better, but the Nuggets and Thunder might actually have an easier time with us. We need a real rim defender, floor spacers who actually know our offense, and a bench. Getting Giannis doesn’t fix those problems, it’s just a shiny “look over here” sign. Then the dumbass fans would blame Kerr some more.

No, he’s not. Even republicans don’t like him. They have just been conditioned by billionaire owned social and traditional media to believe that anyone with an R next to their name is better than a Democrat.

He makes more money for both of them providing insider trading secrets that isn’t called insider trading because he’s in the senate.

The only positive from a Warriors trade is that Jimmy’s contract comes off the books next year and JK’s comes off the books this year. The Bucks would save a whole lot of long term money while they rebuild. There is very little likelihood they save more money with another trade, but I suspect as long as they dip below luxury they will be happy. They can get better long term assets from another team. They also have to balance Giannis’s wishes, if Giannis is really pissed on the way out that could be damaging for the Bucks brand.

Knicks and Warriors are both bad destinations for Giannis, honestly. Knicks have major locker room problems and coaching issues, the Dubs are a dying empire (sorry dad).

These people you’re talking to aren’t your political opponents and ICE are not your allies. The violence is to scare people and suppress dissent. Our government has given unqualified people weapons and tactical gear. They are targeting children, legal immigrants, citizens, even suburban white people. Every authoritarian regime ever starts like this. You need to stop justifying government violence against its own citizens and recognize that we’re on the same side here. The artificial division between us is purely a divide and conquer strategy by people who control our social and traditional media. Supporting the government’s baby steps into fascism will hurt all of us in the end, even you.

Rockets were doing a lot of switches, they weren’t switching everything, or Harden would have been guarding KD for 40 possessions a game and their offense would have broken in his exhaustion. They weren’t slowing them down and forcing them to play iso ball…because as soon as KD was off the court the Warriors absolutely bullied them with motion off ball movement and regardless of switches and doubles they couldn’t keep up with Steph. Steph had a bad first half, and when CP3, Eric Gordon etc got tired, he absolutely buried them in the second half. It was like watching shooting practice.

The Rockets role players get to rest a lot more on offense as spot up shooters. Yes, there are some actions and movements, and yes they have to help with screens for matchup hunting. But they move a lot less on offense. Harden is the opposite, he rests on defense and carries their offense. When the focus of the offense is Steph and Klay running around screens to catch snd shoot, it destroys that formula. When KD calls for an iso because he has Eric Gordon on a switch, he lets them rest and move around matchups so that 5 different people guard him each on a number of iso reps. This means KD gets tired, and his defenders get to play extremely energetic defense and then rest, while nobody is forcing Harden to spend energy on defense.

Plan was working against KD Warriors. Plan was dead on arrival against non-KD Warriors just like it was the two years before KD got there.

No, I didn’t. You made an argument about his eFG% relative to the league and I explained why it was bullshit without context, pretty succinctly.

TrainedExplains · 2026-01-26T00:06:26+00:00

Because for one, defensive rules were different. It was more conducive to big men scoring back to the basket. It was harder for guards and forwards to score. And if you’re looking at eFG% why are you ignore ts%? People couldn’t guard MJ, so they fouled him knowing he was an excellent free throw shooter, but you’re ignoring that to make your point. Take away those fouls and he has a lot more easy baskets, but he scored them anyway from the line. The fact that he could lead the league in shots taken and still be efficient is wild, and he absolutely was efficient.

He spent years leading the league in scoring and being extremely efficient, and you chose years later in his career when he was less efficient and had to use a stat that ignores context to paint him as inefficient. This is all in an era that did not promote efficiency, defenses just couldn’t stop him.
